  • Hey gang
    I needed a slightly more chill endeavour this week, so... I here present - wait for it - my first, and last, unscripted video :D I kid, I kid (I don’t), but it’s certainly been an educational exercise...
    Hopefully you find it somewhat atmospheric and cozy :)

    WTF is this, why are you whispering at me?!
    #ASMR is an acronym commonly used to describe the 'tingly' sensation associated with certain audio stimulae - often whispering/soft-spoken voice, and other quiet triggers. It's a similar feeling to 'Frisson' - the shivers that run up your spine when watching an incredible scene in a film, or really /feeling/ amazing music.
    ASMR now also refers to a genre of content whereby creators/'ASMRtists' intend to invoke these 'tingles' in others. Even if you don't experience ASMR - many don't - you might still find this content calming, relaxing, or useful for getting to sleep. Heck, even entertaining, god forbid.

    @alanyamamura 4 роки тому +646

    Are we the Specter of Death? I mean we kind of appeared out of nowhere. His story doesn’t match up, he said he came in here whilst we were here but it seems like we were the ones who entered, as he glances at us as if if we came in.
    Also he was reading the newspaper as the video started, which may suggest he’s been here for a moment. Also the fact he talks to us first suggest the same. Basically he was shot probably in the fight he was talking about, then sat down in a carriage to hide, and as he bled more and more he saw us, the Specter of Death.

    • @the_bearded_drengr
      @the_bearded_drengr 3 роки тому +74

      So what you are saying is. We are the grim reaper speaking to him before his stop "The afterlife" and everything he says are memories, he once had a conversation like this with someone right before the match and bullet wound, this is his strongest memory he could think of also "I don't want to forget this moment" as he is in the abandoned train cart he found the photo and rethink to this moment, also why he barely feels the wound because he has lost way too much blood already.

      @NekoLilyK 3 роки тому +54

      @@Milkshake908 Just because it's an ASMR video doesn't mean the creator had no intention of artistic ideas like this. This makes sense tbh. The "I just got shot" comment he makes seems random and just for comedic effect until you consider that maybe there's more to the story than is evident at first.

    • @ezragubbay9780
      @ezragubbay9780 3 роки тому +33

      Personally I think he got shot in 1890, and years later he’s talking to the modern person who is the POV as a ghost. And he’s now doing his parting. I mean come on, no one survives that long with blood gushing out of him, he’s definitely a ghost

    • @Marispider
      @Marispider 3 роки тому +30

      that puts the story about the little ghost child unable to find peace after death until someone helped them in a whole new light. we're helping him by giving him company until he dies, and we shut our eyes at the end as if falling asleep to the story, which gives him some peace, either that he's helped someone relax and rest easy, or that he won't be seen actually dying. it could be us making sure he's put to rest so he won't want/need to linger

    How dare you, sir. I came here for soothing noises and relaxing conversations,
    Not to swiftly fall in love with Grant Worthington only to have my heart just as switfly _shattered_ over his mortally wounded state.
    14:12 Him offering to share a cab since he lives so close, then checking the time and realizing it's HOURS before he can get home... and he's probably thinking _'oh dear, that's probably too long.'_ and he just *_MOVES RIGHT ALONG!_* Electing instead to take a photograph *_(that he's never going to develop)_* with a stranger he's sharing his *_last moments alive with_* because *_he's never going to make it back home._*
    So now I'm pushing down any negative emotion in this sad situation and choosing to enjoy and respect this charming man using his time to take my picture.
    This is *_SO WELL EXECUTED,_* and really gets across the point of seeing the moments of care and connection between needless tragedy.

    I know I may be reading too far into this, but it's fun to make theories, so hear me out: This man is a time traveler. Allow me to explain. He says at 8:29 that he had a fight between himself and a "fellow that looked rather similar" to him. this could be him from a different time fighting him for one reason or another. As well as that, he asks about the influenza virus (9:26). Yes, the influenza virus existed before 1895, but it only hit the United Kingdom and surrounding areas in the early 1910s, about 20 years or so after this interaction. Another thing that caught my eye was how he reacted to having been shot (11:42). He seems very calm. A bit too calm for being shot in the abdomen. Usually, one would seek help of some kind. It's almost as if he's been waiting for this or at least understanding of his mortality. Considering how the man never went to get medical attention or help of any kind, one can only assume that he wanted to die. With these things in mind, I have 2 theories:
    1: He is a time traveler who, for whatever reason, tried to stop himself in this time by getting into a fight, as previously mentioned. When that fails, a version of himself from a different point in time shoots him in the abdomen in an attempt to ultimately stop whatever wrongdoing the man who we see has committed. The attempt was a success and the man dies. This video is his final moments.
    2: This man has had the ability to travel through time for a while. It has become more of a curse than a blessing. For one reason or another (maybe the loss of a loved one or depression or what have you), he decided it's time for him to leave this mortal plane. Before doing so, He travels to the roman era and fights with himself in the coliseum for the hell of it. He even said it himself at 8:51 that "sometimes you just need a good fight", hinting that he just did it for fun and fun alone. He also said at 8:34 that "Thousands of people watched", stating that there was a large crowd. One that a coliseum fight would bring. On the train, his future self, knowing his past self's intention to die, shoots him in the abdomen. The man sits down here and slowly dies of blood loss. That is why he never asked for help. He was ready and willing to die.
    Now, these are merely theories and have no bearing in the video whatsoever nor do they serve as backstory. This was just a fun experiment that I thought some of you may enjoy. Cheers!

    POV: the man is a time traveler and got shot before traveling back to 1890. He sits with a youthful, young woman. The whole time, they have a conversation about life and stuff. By the end of it as she is drifting off to sleep and he is bleeding out. He states that he was glad to see her again and glad he had a photo of her when she was younger. When she wakes up, the man is gone, however not only does the picture that he took that night of her remain, but she sees several other photos of what looks like her in different time lines. She try’s to process how this could be. On the back of every picture it says her name and a date. On the last picture that was dated, it says her name with the word “wife” next to it.
    (Basically I’m saying that the man had lost his wife and decided to time travel to the different timelines with her in it. When he reaches the timeline where they were supposed to meet, he gets shot. He does not fear death though. He knew it would come after him and what better time than the moment he actually met her. He has one last conversation with her and decides to take her picture to remember the moment he saw her again, then he dies, however he is happy he got to see her one last time.)

      Not exactly. You see, back in the late 19th century these types of paragraphs were normal for newspapers and books. Smaller lettering was necessary for local newspaper companies such as the * Manchester Guardian* since there was only such a scarce amount of material for printing them

    This sounds a lot like a short story ive written for my school’s short story compilation book.
    This video is genuinely so good ! The script, the cinematic and environment. So unreal and charming, i love it ! It filled some sort of satisfaction in me because this is exactly how i visualised the short story i wrote even though the storyline is different yet the concept is similar. What a coincidence for this video to be recommended on my page !

    I burst out laughing at 7:10 when he said Shakespeare is very meta then looked up to refer to his own video link. This is quality subtle humour that doesn't take away from the relaxed overall vibe. Well done, Atlas.

    I forgot that this is a regular asmr video.. literally a genre of video where most often they just touch things near the microphone or eat, BUT THIS GUY MADE A FILM.
    I'm not into reading books or playing games, so I never felt "immersed" in a story, but this ordinary video immersed me so much that I forgot about reality.
    The acting, the atmosphere,story... it's so much the best that I cried at the end, I became so attached to this character that I see in the ASMR VIDEO.
    I'm embarrassed to even call this just an ASMR video, it's like I was just in a book.

      But sorry, I don't want to ruin the joke because it was funny, but may i add, that during the 19th Century, men having full on beards was not surprising. almost every male men back then actually had facial hair. From my common knowledge, The Prime minister of the UK at that time had a full on beard. Robert Glascoyne Cecil, 3rd Marquess of Salisbury.

      And also the King of England Edward VII also had a full beard. He died in 1910.

      Personally I feel like the story was alluding to something: personally my belief is you aren't actually watching him die, this is his ghost, he died alone in a train car, this train car, when he actually died he died alone after being shot, he, like the child in the story was not able to move on from the grief of dying alone, his only wish was to die around someone else. Finally after a long time someone finally can see him, and it is in the story, he finally is able to fulfill his wish, as the video gets dark you fall asleep and he is finally able to move on

    This is true art, and a beautiful monologue. I appreciate how the story he read at the end tied everything together with a nice little bow. I'm not sure if this is what was intended, but what I understood is that he realized his life was about to end, and instead of lying restless in his grave because he did not "give away the proverbial stolen farthings", he choses to give all the love he has left to the stranger he meets on the train, the unwitting stranger who shares his last moments. This video truly touched me, and made me think about how people I will never meet again might remember me for how I make them feel in that moment. This is a truly, truly beautiful work of art, and I am grateful that you put it on youtube for us all to enjoy free of charge.
