As a side note, "will be kept in the loop" is most likely a subtle threat that whoever investigates the events will be trapped in the timeloop simulation as well
yeah even in trying to be scary, the original creator cant help but stay with his comedy aspects and add funny stuff. my favorite lines are probably the entire song portion, specifically "everybody in time loop!" and when Micheal Lee is trying to overstim and the host shouts "if you stop i will give you 5 photograph of motorcar, i wont even arrest you!"
"and I think he might have made me ugly" really got me for some reason. The concept is terrifying, but the fact that the game show portions can still be funny is amazing.
did anyone catch the threat Michael Lee made while being interviewed? "Anyone who is trying to investigate this, be sure that you will be kept in the loop.". That's such a smart line lol
It's perfect! Interpreted three ways: 1: keep up to date 2: will end up in the time loop 3: us the audience trying to investigate (Instagram reels) is constantly kept in a loop of the same reel every post. Beautiful!
"Wetten, dass...?" is not just a game show about people performing arbitrary tasks, but one where the contestants make a bet with the host on their own terms and attempt to beat the challenge they themselves decided. Some bet that they can empty a water bowl faster than a dog just by lapping it up, others would bet they could guess Scottish clans based on their tartan pattern or an episode of the show based on a palette of colors that was taken from said episode. Some of the bets were seriously impressive while the show was still running.
I still remember braiding a rope out of toilet paper strong enough to support a man climbing up a tower. Or typing on a typewriter with the bucket of an excavator. Must have been over 30 years ago.
Holy shit, i seen the original meme and left it at that, got recommend this video today thinking "oh cool another analog horror analysis video, good to put on while doing work" to hear that meme again and getting a flash back.
@@sexygirlmax2019 this exactly. I was folding my washing and I was just listening to the video, heard it pulled my phone out of my pocket in shock lmao.
32:40 On day 82, Sasha is questioning Sam and her methods. Out of the blue, he is gets the option to leave a review on the BYTE Magazine. Every word he says is written down, so he leaves a review asking for help and warning the reader that "Sam is not to be trusted" while also agreeing to work with her. I love this
Yeah surprised he missed that. I love seeing smart characters in horror, and Sasha proved that by spotting that oppurtunity so quickly and still managing to pretend to trust Sam
given that Sam gets pulled out almost immediately after the review is submitted... I have a sinking suspicion that perhaps sasha inadvertently got sam freed instead of himself.
15:44 the reason it's digits of pi is most likely because the clip is from a show where the man memorized digits of pi, a very common "memorization exercise"
My honest take? This is so fucking good. The use of REAL broadcasts and visuals is amazing. The very subtle flow from a silly meme into analog horror is incredible. This is one of the only analog horror series that i can stay entertained with thoroughly, the entire time
@neoc03 you can't be that old, I remember that from my childhood and I'm only 18 Then again I watched a lot of old stuff as a kid cause we were poor and couldn't get all the new stuff I watched a lot of vhs tapes as a kid
For anyone interested, the guy‘s actual name is Matthias Heuel, his challenge was getting a piece of iron to glow only by striking it with a hammer. He actually managed to do it, which the host the proves by lighting a cigarette with the glowing piece.
32:45 Honestly love the way the 'Host' leaves this message. Its always so satisfying and refreshing to see victims in horror media being smart and making quick decisions.
I will give you 5 picture of motorcar if you stop hitting metal and I wont even arrest you. 😂😂 this shit is so fkn funny . Funniest analog horror ive ever seen. Makes sense considering the dude who made it usually makes comedy
26:32 weird how you just ignored how he said anyone still trying to investigate will be KEPT IN THE LOOP. Or whatever. To someone who doesnt know It sounds like in the loop like information wise. But hes clearly referencing the time loop simulation
I only could interpret it as a threat saying you will be kept in the time loop until i read this comment and realized that that was supposed to be like a double meaning lol
You can't ignore all of the other pieces of information in favour of the sign that says Chelsea like there aren't Chelsea's in both the US and Canada and not just in London
i avoided this video because i thought it was just a crappy derivative series based on a meme but damn am i glad i watched it. actually high quality as hell, and i liked your coverage- you earned a sub.
As a german I can't tell you how bizarre it is to watch a bunch of americans dubbing over Wetten Das with a russian accent and also turning it into a analog horror in the process of the meme going viral.
46:18 That is NOT Satanic imagery. That is just a pentagram with the symbols of the 4 elements around it but fire is missing. Top left is air, top right is earth, bottom left is water. Calling these symbols Satanic is like calling a rainbow gay. A pentagram is a symbol for several things but in general it's a symbol for generative life force. The point is up so that's good. (The elements are usually arranged differently, in most situations the order from top is fire, air, water, earth but depending on which system or part of system the order changes. For example, in the Enochian system air is on top, then water, earth and fire). I don't know why they are arranged the way they are here, but the fact that fire is missing looks like a clue to me.
@@itzwizory9556 I don't remember, if it had a circle around it then yes, you're right and I appreciate the correction. I don't remember the context either, maybe in some traditions it matters which way the star is pointing in order to be called a pentagram, but as far as I know a unicursal 5 pointed star is a pentagram, no matter which way it points. Any symbol in a circle can be called a pentacle and usually represents earth, but I think any element can be represented in a working. Usually it's a pentagram in a circle. It's kind of complicated to explain unless referring to a specific working, tradition or belief system or not knowing where the other person is coming from, I feel like I left something out. Please correct me if I'm wrong pertaining to this video, I can't find that part, also, you may know something I don't. Thank you for the reply!
@@0therun1t21 Actually yes, it can be called a pentagram no matter the direction, but the direction does matter when deciding if it's satanic or not. Upside down is meant to symbolize the head of the devil, while the one I described as a pentacle is kinda just there (I'm not sure what purpose it served). I was mostly going off of tarot cards and one memory of reading the distinction somewhere 😅 Also yes, in the video it did have a circle around it.
@@itzwizory9556 Yeah, makes sense, it really comes down to intent. You can take anything, use it as a symbol and attach a meaning to it. Of course certain shapes automatically certain things, like the qualities of numbers. Even numbers are stable and therefore yin, while odd numbers are unstable, seeking stability, and therefore yang, and so on. (I felt like I had to keep writing because I hate stigmas of all kinds, including the ones put onto shapes, sounds, colors and belief systems including Christianity).) I wish the whole goat head thing wasn't used to judge people, at least those of us who know what it means and don't pray to a Devil to Get Stuff. That goat head is also a generative symbol. Goats are known for their horniness and their head fits perfectly in a pentagram, unlike a bunny, also famous for being horny. If the goat head has a pentagram with a torch sticking out of it and is attached to the body of a hermaphrodite, sitting on a hemisphere and a black cube, then it's called Baphomet. This is a symbol of the union of opposites and the life force. The torch in the downward pointing pentagram means illumination from Creator downloading into the body, or the genius (old meaning, not about test scores). The black cube represents earth and the dome represents the heavens. There's more but I've given the general idea. There is nothing inherently bad or evil about these symbols. It's intent that determines that. If a person sees a shape and decides it's evil or perverts it's use, that's on them.
I saw the original joke that was uploaded all those times entirely out of context a while ago and had no idea it had any connection to analog horror whatsoever.
What I love about the "Mikaili hitting metal" analog horror is that it doesn't abandon the humor once it becomes clear that there's something sinister behind the original meme. We still have funny moments like Sasha's conversation with his friend "_Veil is literally 'evil' backwards. _No, that would be 'live'..." and Michael's secretary being extremely unworried, almost condescending, about the fact that they lost the source... and the musical numbers are amazing
I saw this unfold in real time on instagram, I had to sit through 17 days (1 video a day) of the same hitting metal video before it would change a slight detail in the video, it was awesome! People first began joking that "Mikhaeli" was stuck in a loop when it was just a brainrot meme, then we started telling mikhaeli to hit metal 16 times and such.
16:25 - "aaru is currently unavailable due to multiple failed tests. in future, individuals with terminal health conditions will be given priority for aaru tests" 20:58: "Existing Aaru subjects can be utilised for experimentation.

Test subject 2's external hardware was disconnected on 11/09/91." and "Temporary admin insertion: only use if all options exhausted, all admins notified if used, interactions must meet scenario expectations."
I've been watching Adrian Gray Comedy for 2 years before any of this, this is super cool, I didn't even know about it lol. The original clip is from one of his parody videos, specifically the one about the history of game shows after war. Specifically, the video is called "when gameshows go too far" on youtube shorts. I recommend watcging the full video, im, like, 70% sure that the weird brown thing is in it for a second. His videos have always been hilarious and a little freaky, but I didn't know he'd actually get into analog horror, though I'm happy he did.
15:40 I think that the "random" numbers were actually the pass codes to the vaults, with 69399 being the pass code for Vault 3, especially since a side effect of being woken up is "impressionability", it makes sense that he would start giving her the pass code before realizing and barely manage to replace the last 9 with an 8.
This series is absurd yet strangely compelling. It’s serious but silly, with such care in how it is crafted, yet the tone often still feeling like an extended shitpost that you are INVESTED in. I LOVE it. This is a fun first video to see from you, I really appreciate all the additional context and analysis, it adds so much to the initial viewing to have a guide like you. PLEASE update us when the next bit of the series wraps, or you feel like it’s in a good place, I’d love to continue this investigation with you.
Speaking of metal. When I listened to your ready or not iceberg. The lead story you shared changed my life. I am a beast thanks to you. Thanks mr. Lead
Another giveaway that it takes place in america is the timestamp in that footage where you analyze the camry. Dates are recorded MM/DD/YYYY in america but are recorded DD/MM/YYYY in Europe!!
the sudden musical number just after the horrifying brain surgery isn't the analog horror i thought i needed. but i did 17:30 to 18:30 he just kinda just accepts this time prison
This looks really good,I'm definitely going to check it out after this. Thank you! I got his channel up but I'm not getting an IG account. I love it anyway.
There is a passing mention of "you might as well be working for satan and sons." By Sasha's friend. If I had to guess that joke is also a hint for the plot. The supernatural entity when the friend is taken or killed is probably someone with the organism inside.
Man, most of these analog horrors doesn't hold my interest for too long, but this one is pretty badass! I paused it to step outside and smoke a cig, and I was singing the "Fair Enough" song lol.
Loving one of the "side effects" being impressionability. Put Michael through the loop enough, he'll tell you whatever. Looks like the video game equivalent of a roofie or whatever the "truth drug" is in real life.
OH i ran into this on insta and made a mental note to come back to it but could never find the account again, so i’m rlly glad to find this video! tyty :)
I love this series so much. The horror, the suspense, the comedy, the MUSICAL SEGMENTS. I absolutely love it. Also a detail overlook in this video is how Sasha notices the review feature and secretly sends out a warning message
13:11 it is also noticed that the objects in previous episodes, including the die, Willy, and factory are brief foreshadowed to the reports of Michael Lee. Including gambling company money, and abuse of workers etc.
Randomly encountered but this was really interesting. Both the video and the way you covered it. It was a breath of fresh air. I can't wait to check out whatever you make :D
just found you tonight. analog horror is new to me ,only 10 yrs or so, watching movies . and about 4 yrs finding you tubers who do the hard work making videos. i thank you for this wonderful work. its like a birthday day gift when i find a new video ,or new channel to look at my best to you and yours. new fan joe n.c..
Not sure I could keep hitting metal for so long myself, but, eh... Fair enough.

As a side note, "will be kept in the loop" is most likely a subtle threat that whoever investigates the events will be trapped in the timeloop simulation as well
Also, Sasha sent in a hidden message via the review with some careful wording
@Hitman_Agent-47 wuh oh...
I mean, with the accounts that are involved in the next part of it... sounds about right...
its coming from michael himself, so most like a warning and not a threat
@@Mast3rKK how so?

I guess what I'm trying to say is that maybe Michael chose the fate of hitting metal for himself in some way.

Wait..
So many people could be doing various tasks again and again over and over like mikaeli? (Micheal Lee)
That is really clever actually. Trapped in a hell of his own creation

This series is absurd yet strangely compelling. It’s serious but silly, with such care in how it is crafted, yet the tone often still feeling like an extended shitpost that you are INVESTED in. I LOVE it. This is a fun first video to see from you, I really appreciate all the additional context and analysis, it adds so much to the initial viewing to have a guide like you. PLEASE update us when the next bit of the series wraps, or you feel like it’s in a good place, I’d love to continue this investigation with you.
“Give it a chance, it really picks up around hour 14” is what it feels like when someone recommends you a really long RPG
Speaking of metal. When I listened to your ready or not iceberg. The lead story you shared changed my life. I am a beast thanks to you. Thanks mr. Lead
just commenting to boost your engagement. love this channel. love your content. keep it up dude!
The monster is the rock biter from the neverending story btw!
Another giveaway that it takes place in america is the timestamp in that footage where you analyze the camry. Dates are recorded MM/DD/YYYY in america but are recorded DD/MM/YYYY in Europe!!
I've been waiting for someone to cover this series since I saw my first clip. A little late to this upload but AHH I'm glad I'm here
Bro, I've watched this guys videos for a while now, never knew this was something that happened.
the sudden musical number just after the horrifying brain surgery isn't the analog horror i thought i needed. but i did 17:30 to 18:30
he just kinda just accepts this time prison
That Sam-troll monster sparked a childhood memory, but from where? Some kind of 80's/90's media, the Never Ending Story, maybe?
It’s the rockbiter from Neverending story, yes.
@@martindorn3983 thank you!
I absolutely love the combination of comedy and horror! This is amazing! Also the ''monster'' is a rock-eater from ''The never ending story''.
The musical numbers go hard tho
its very impressive that this show has been able to balance their comedic tones without getting too unserious or feeling out of place
Bruh you really calling these dubbed tiktoks a show lol
@@vancyboi162 it is a show lmaoo
@@slowmovingtrains no it's not crodie
This looks really good,I'm definitely going to check it out after this. Thank you!
I got his channel up but I'm not getting an IG account. I love it anyway.
My friend at school told me about this and i fell in love w this
There is a passing mention of "you might as well be working for satan and sons." By Sasha's friend. If I had to guess that joke is also a hint for the plot. The supernatural entity when the friend is taken or killed is probably someone with the organism inside.
God i love the “fair enough” delivery its so good
Man, most of these analog horrors doesn't hold my interest for too long, but this one is pretty badass! I paused it to step outside and smoke a cig, and I was singing the "Fair Enough" song lol.
Loving one of the "side effects" being impressionability. Put Michael through the loop enough, he'll tell you whatever. Looks like the video game equivalent of a roofie or whatever the "truth drug" is in real life.
This is the most interesting project I've seen in a long time!
Finally, someone called Sasha in media that isn't a woman.
It might be in some perpetual nightmare in an analog horror setting, but I'll take it!
"I will hit metal like never hit before"
Idk why I got so hype 😅 pretty good story too lol
OH i ran into this on insta and made a mental note to come back to it but could never find the account again, so i’m rlly glad to find this video! tyty :)
Reminds me of ECHOSTASIS a lot, a game from ENIGMA studios (Same people who released MOTHERED in 2021) basically the same premise and visual style.
I love this series so much. The horror, the suspense, the comedy, the MUSICAL SEGMENTS. I absolutely love it.
Also a detail overlook in this video is how Sasha notices the review feature and secretly sends out a warning message
that song is gonna be in my head for ages, its so good!!
Fair enough
33:40 and also, sasha is talking around his conversation with Samantha to send a call for help and warning via the review writer.
13:11 it is also noticed that the objects in previous episodes, including the die, Willy, and factory are brief foreshadowed to the reports of Michael Lee. Including gambling company money, and abuse of workers etc.
27:31 out of all of the old medias to pull from, the weird rock troll from the neverending story movie was something i did NOT expect
i followed this on instagram until the uploads stopped. im so happy to see videos on it now
Oh this is really clever, never heard of someone using stock footage before
What an absolute work of art
Great video! This series is surprisingly interesting. I'd definitely like to see an update video when enough new stuff has been released
Randomly encountered but this was really interesting. Both the video and the way you covered it. It was a breath of fresh air. I can't wait to check out whatever you make :D
As a person who is a fan of Adrian Grey Comedy this left me in shock and I’m current at the dad joke hospital
