Lmao

Jesus Christ, I can't believe there are YouTube people doing deep dives on some bullshit I saw as a kid.

 

[Chemo]

Oh yeah, I know of this. Somewhat before my time but still appreciatable

It was on /x/ and other urban legend websites/youtube for my entire life so it's been pretty common knowledge if you're on the internet. Not something I'd be able to remember but it sounds crazy af to see in real time.

Extremely based television broadcast takeover.

 

[Gore San]

He and another YouTuber both do obscure internet culture stuff.

Yeah watch the video. Someone took over the news and talked with a max headroom mask on. Very bizarre and the perp never came out/was found.

The dude never snitched on himself. All these years later and still nobody is for sure who did it.

I mean I'm sure the statue of limitations has to be up by now, but the dudes identity remains a myth.

Not all heroes wear capes.

I mean imagine being the perpetrator of the best tv hijacking in American history and you're not going for the glory of the reveal.

My man is content just knowing that he did it. He probably sees a video about what he did all those years ago every once in awhile and just giggles to himself.

I really hope that in his will after he dies that a written confession be released. I would love to know who the guy actually was.
