We Made Escape Rooms For Each Other! (w/ Grian & Joel)

Grian, Joel, and I all designed an escape room for the other two to attempt. Then Joel and I take a crack at escaping Grian's escape room.
Check out Grian and Joel's videos!
Joel: • I Made a Weird Escape ...

Hey! I actually got the order right! :D I watched Grain's first, then Joel's where they made a reference to Grian's POV (Joel's room), and now I'm watching Impulse where they made a reference to Joel's POV (Impulse's room)! So I'm assuming they played Joel's escape room first, then moved on to Impulse's escape room (where Grian referenced Joel's room from the recurring theme of Jimmy compliments bit), and lastly did Grian's escape room, where Joel referenced Impulse's room with the "I'm the smart one" at the beginning.

[@Lilobeetle]

I think they did Impulses room last though, because at one point Joel died in Impulses room and respawned in Grians.

they did impulse's last since joel spawned in grians during impulse's room, and with that it would make sense that they did joel's first since i'm pretty sure they used beds to set spawns in his, with would have overrid the bed from grian's dropper

[@friendlyphysicist5386]

The words echo in my brain, haunting my every step, my every thought, my every *breath.* Grian really created something horrifying, it almost makes him seem insane, the wordplay, the loop, in this video you, no WE entered the brain of Grian, full of thoughts about the great Mumbo Jumbo and jittery chaos, all of this was incredibly well made but there was one sentence that really made this go from a fun loop to a nightmare that only a lucid dreamer could create. *"Are slides still fun?"* God, just typing them out hurts my fingers, like the letters are made of hot ash... Slides were fun once upon a time... The first time around but now the idea hurts. The barriers that blocked off the slide really added a bit more pain to the experience, as if no matter how many times you try that slide you'll never get anywhere. Imagine having to read *it* every time you wanted to go down the slide.. Are slides still fun? *Are slides still fun?* Ärê §lïÐê§ §†ïll £µñ? Every time you scroll the words they get more and more deformed, creating an absolute nightmare though every passing second. Never before have I seen something that scares me so much... But the question isn't answered... It's never answered... Ärê §lïÐê§ §†ïll £µñ? Were slides ever fun? Is it worth it in the end? Did you enjoy your ride? Are slides still fun?

If Grian wanted to be REALLY evil, he could have replaced one of the sculk blocks in the Mumbo room with a sculk catalyst. They have slightly different top textures, and if they used the scaffolding to slowly die of fall damage, he could have used observers to detect some stone changing to sculk that would have been placed underneath.
