What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's a non-scientific word that an everyday person came up with to describe the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles", but the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect. - Розваги
"Fascinating," proclaims the repairman as Professor Clemmons drops off yet another of his experiments for a tune up. "You know what to do," commands the professor before returning to his quarters. This particular specimen appears to be a robot, no, an android with a real human brain having recently been implanted.
But, whose?
No matter, the repairman is well aware of what happens when he lets curiosity get the best of him.
Better to mind his own business.
The android's eyes and mouth open simultaneously with a burst of steam. The eyes tell all: she's in pain. The repairman takes a deep breath, burying his emotions. Perhaps there's more to her than meets the eye, more than just a brain and some spare parts. The professor's experiment appears to be a success. How far was he able to go this time?
A loud bang is heard from down the hall. An ordinary person would be startled but the repairman is used to such things. He faintly hears a female voice, but can't quite make it out. He quietly puts down his tools, advances to the door, and presses his ear against it.
"One. One. Zero. Zero. One. One. Zero. Zero."
She's stuck in a binary loop. Putting the pieces together, the repairman returns to his project. All he can do is try to ease her pain. Now is not the time to turn on the professor. He must wait patiently for a better opportunity.
--------------------------------------------------
A clap of thunder rings through Arkham Sanitarium, followed by the familiar "whirring" and "vooshing" of the rift opening up. Mixed feelings consume the repairman's body, as memories come rushing back to him. Today is a special day. Today is the anniversary of the repairman's first encounter with the professor and his rift.
The year was E.B. 852 Z.D. Nearly all wildlife had gone extinct and the economy was a trade system once more. Those who were still left had already started to turn to cannibalism, while the wealthy had abandoned their home and were already making their impressions on another residential planet not 2 galaxies over. It was survival of the fittest. Despite being damned to a low-income area, the repairman's skills were far superior to anyone else's and made him a decent living. Before the Great Migration the wealthy would send their servants to visit the repairman on the outskirts of the city, and they always paid generously. This business was just frequent enough to allow him to save up a little and afford the occasional luxury of imported food. His diet otherwise consisted of tubers. That's all that was left of his native planet.
An XR-22 transport ship cruises overhead. Some day he will have enough savings to afford a ticket out of here. Until then he will have to keep working and scrounging up valuables from the neighboring abandoned villages, although most of them had already been raided by this point. He lies down on his old, beat-up couch and stares through the holes in the ceiling. His eyes grow heavy as Qwytor, the planet's 3rd moon, creeps into sight, not knowing this would be the last time he ever sees its beautiful ochre and crimson striped surface.
*CLAP* A bright, green light flashes throughout the five hundred square foot shack. Startled, the repairman leaps out of bed, his hair blowing in the whirlwind that was created by some sort of beam that suddenly appeared in the middle of the room. The beam appears to be stretching, although it's so bright he can barely see. One hand pokes through the beam and retracts. Then, in that same place, the head of a man pokes through. He reaches his hands out in front of him, and then as if holding on to some sort of fixture instead of a beam of light, he pulls the rest of his body through and enters the repairman's shack.
(More to come soon...)
Gabrielle Anderson damn that’s well written
I want the rest of the story!
Beautiful. Like it better than the TNG/ER fanfic also in the comments.
keep going!
Thanks guys! I didn't think it would get so much love so I'll write a part 2 tomorrow :)
Best fanfic story about The Repairman gets pinned here. You have 1 week. Check back July 28 to see who was selected.
I’m also trying to figure out how to implement a fanfic website for Rift World / Arkham Sanitarium / Letters from the Apocalypse.
Perfect asmr 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏
Ephemeral Rift hi
If you do build the fanfic website, I would be happy (and just a bit nervous) to share the story I wrote.
Ephemeral Rift Hell yeah uncle e !!!😎
that's interesting cause i do Gmod comics (they're not public its for friends) and put Corvus in a couple times as a background character and once mentioned by name as being the inventor of a cure for a rare disease
to me Corvus comes off like Q from star trek he can travel any reality from ours to video games and other media and even go back and fourth in time but he's never explained
some one should mod him into Skyrim as a follower
This was, quite literally, the best I have ever felt in my life.
As a GNK Power Droid, I often get damaged, lose various pieces of my frame, et cetera.
Finally getting a repair makes me feel as good as new.
Lol
Yes! It's great to see one of my favourites return. I really like the repairman as he reminds me of my grandfather who was a carpenter. As a small child he would sit me on his lap while he worked, or I would hear him Working through the night in his workshop. The repairman brings back many of those memories.
D'aaawww, that's adorable.
Was he planning world domination though ?
same here grandpas are the best source of knowledge, they lived their lives truest to the form not in-front of a computer
Declan Pendergast mine spent it with computers for over 30 years, pioneering technology and computers
That Trashy Kid exactly he but he wasn’t making comments on UA-cam he was building a modern world
Alright I have a fanfic explaining the repairman
He’s a repair man.
Oh my goodness Iv'e found the answer i was looking for 😱
Nooo. You don't say. 😂
No no he is THE repairman
@@HaZa917 :O prove it!
*genius*
I just love the attention to detail so much, even the rusted clip on the clipboard makes the vibe
I see a lot of fanfics here... But what's your real story, Repairman?
Well you see i repair thing and get paid and then eat and drink somtimes I'll sleep
I need self sleep repair
MortalToxicity i need self repair :/
@@yourejustchildish2554 i need
Well he became a repair man
Great video (but that isn't a shock). Although gotta say... This rift has been open for a long while and seems to be getting a bit bigger... Are we sure it's ephemeral anymore? Could it maybe be a protracted or even elongated rift?

Just woke up in the middle of this and had a thought pop up suddenly that ER could do a really good Adeptus Mechanicus video.
I knew my sleep schedule moderator was broken! Thanks for the repairs! =) Awesome video as always.
(69 likes) nice
I would like this comment but the natural laws forbid it
Wow......I needed a vacuum tube huh? I must really be an old model. Lol! Great job!
Well despite being replaced with a tube that wouldn’t fit.
That toolbox... That's identical with the Fallout 4 toolboxes!
OMG TRUE
NO WAY
What is this heresy! Wait, wrong dystopian setting. Ahem, What is this synthery!
I just love it on how everybody has his own ideas doing asmr videos, because every person has his own triggers of tingles that he needs to calm down after work or if you can‘t sleep! So you can always switch on asmr channels on what you need for that day! Great job keep it up what your doing I love it, i‘m always happy to get that message when you uploaded a new video!
oh my god more repairman I'VE WAITED SO LONG. he's in my top 5 rift characters and i watch all the videos on repeat. love you ER
The Repairman. Known by many, in many worlds. He has traveled through rifts, seen many things, fixed even more. With his trusty toolbox there isn't anything, or anyone he can't fix. Until he met you. The enigma that is you. He has tried every method, using every tool he has, and yet is left scratching his head. But, being the best he is in this world- or any other- he rolls up his sleeves and gets to work. Even if it takes a millennia, he will figure out, and fix what is wrong with you, for he is the Repairman.
But can he fix a broken heart and mind?
I like this one. The concept, that is.
I’ve been watching your videos before going to sleep almost every night for the past 2 years, they never cease to deeply relax me. The way you “act out” the role plays is so professional too, you’d make a great actor, if you’re not already one of course! Without doubt one of the finest ASMR channels on the tube. Keep up your amazing work 😊 Rich from England.
I remember when the repair man. First
Came out. It was always my
Go to video I’ve watched all the repair man videos a millions of time now there’s a new one!
This is my favorite character of yours. I’ve tried to finish this video three times now absolutely amazing work thank you.
The repairman series is easily one of my fav so I love this one! The sounds are so good I actually thought they were coming from inside my room when the video first started
I like this series so much! It's not constant talking but enough to keep it interesting
This has always been my favorite series out of all ASMR!
The repairman walks into the room. The room is very dimly lit by a small candle upon a table. on the table the repairman sees two glasses of freshly poured red wine. The repairman calls out; “i am here? you said you wanted your muffler repaired?”
he gets no response
after a few minutes of awkward silence, he decides to go and sit down, on the chair neatly pulled out for him on the table. he notices a figure across from him, in the opposite seat. he hears the fabled words utter from the figures shrouded mouth:
“fonsi!”
he stands up, in fear, knowing what is about to happen next.
“D.Y.!”
he attempts to run, run as far away and as fast as possible out of the room, however the door is nowhere to be found. he runs around until he meets a corner where he stands huddled in said corner, hoping it is just a bad dream. he hears two pairs of footsteps grow closer and closer, until they stop. he hears one more sentence. one more coordinated set of sounds before he blacks out.
“Alexa, play Despacito.”
fonsi? eyyyyyyyyyyyy
Ight am bouta go question my life
I’ve been watching this video every day and it doesn’t get boring at all! Always watch it before I go to sleep 😴
Video idea: *Airport secuirity*
Don’t forget the rules.. ”Water is illegal”. :)
Well buddy I’m sorry to say this but that is not quite long enough to be a whole video, next time make the script a bit longer.
Gorge washinton penis
Modest Pelican will be disapointed
Well that's the earliest I've ever been to one of your videos, keep up the brilliant work!
i have been waiting for this for so long!! the repairman’s my absolute favourite.
"your voice puts me to sleep in minutes" isnt usually a compliment, but in ASMR it is. ASMR. Not Even Once.
The Repairman is back to fix my life and my sleep! Praise be to the Rift!
Spending my time repairing what was broken, on order or by own will, day by day. I ever my very first repair: an IBN 5100 that my late father had bought. After opening it up I proceed to file all the fine details in my head. But it wasn't perfect. The compatibility with the surroundings was next to zero, it's connection to what was then called World Wide Web slow and unconventional. So I fixed it. I made it faster, replaced it's primitive circuits with ones I made myself. They weren't prone to oxidation and processing would not be affected by its heat as much. But I didn't monitor the time and my father found me. He thought I was... *tinkering*. Accusing me of something so wild I failed to understand his words. Next thing I rember was seeing him. Holding a green plate with scallings at its side.
"Your father.... He said you are insane. He said you remember useless things." Correcting his glasses he continued "I do not believe you to be crazy, I believe you are special."
As he kept talking on and on he kept tapping the green mat, driving me into what felt like a narcotic state. Some words I managed to catch before my eyes shut where: Arrkham, Clemons, Professor and one more. Nyarlathotep.
Fhtagn
Cthulhu
As it turned out my late father had send me to the Arkham Sanitarium for Mental Rehabilitation. There weren't many patients at the time.
Professor Clemons, the person I met on the first day seemed to be the director of the Sanitarium. Unlike my father he seemed to understand me. He provided me with materials, with technology I never knew existed. I met the nurse.... Margaret. Oh, the nights I spent in her garden. After all this time I still remember. Of my happiest moments where those. Then I met Herr Doctor... Clemons. In the beginning I thought of him as a free roaming patient seeing his medieval mask. Up until he introduced himself to me. Time seemed to have no effect to me as I just kept repairing, correcting and experiencing new technologies. At some point I learned about the rifts. I had asked the Professor where he had found all these materials for me, so he showed me. I was amazed. Later I met creatures, similar to humans yet different. The first of them was Dave. As he introduced I was amazed as a fish out of the water. The Professor was with us at that first meeting. Before leaving Dave said "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh C'thulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn".
Without thinking I replied with "C'thulhu fhtagn". Dave left. The Professor smiled and asked me
"Do you know why you said that?
"No.... I felt that it's the appropriate reply. I heard it the first time I met you."
The Professor kept his smile. "Indeed. You are special after all to remember it after all this time."
I didn't pay heed to the last comment. After all it has only been a few years.
The fire came. It came and burned. Much of my equipment was lost, nothing that couldn't be recovered. It's been a long time since then. We had new professionals comming here. All of them unique. And a new arrival.... The candyman. He was an important part of my life since he brought me candy. And information. About the outside. About the time that has been spent.
I am walking to my next patient. The goal is to help him relax with the reparations. The reparation of his systems. I. Still. Remember.
>This marks the end of my fanfic. I hope that you will see it E.R. as I put some effort into making it. As a coincidence this took as long as the video to complete. Hence the last mark. I also made it on phone so forgive me if it seems sort as I cannot look at it from s normal perspective. This was made after reading your comment. I am awaiting the development of such a website.
“Ok we’re gona start with old faithful here.” Reminds me so much of the farmer that worked on engines and he let me sit on his lap while he worked. I was 7 or something.
Fan fic: the repairman original body was in fact that of the twin of Leonardo da Vinci who was taken by the Clemons brothers under the guise of catching the plague, they took him as he is the smarter of the two and was the one who would eventually have the technical know how to open the rifts and build the machines that make the sanitarium run, as he is human his body's must swap and in order to keep him fictional his mind is erased of all but essential knowledge although sometimes the operation goes wrong causing him to go it to his more mumbling state as he is not able to speak as coherently
Love the creativity you put into all your role-plays. The sound of the oil dispenser from 44:37 never fails to give me tingles, its crazy!
As usual, having the best visuals out of any asmr video
I like to imagine that the Repairman is who all the Tingledroids go to see after the inevitable apocalypse happens and Dr. Tinglebottom is no longer around...
Johnny Dogs your pfp is hilarious
One of my favorites! I don't know what it is, but that old pipe wrench "old faithful" does the trick!
Nice one, ER. Plenty of tingles from this little gem. What WOULD we do without you?!
The breathing sounds are just perfect in this video
one of the good ones, that I listen to again and again. The thing is you dont talk too loud - or I will constantly listen to what you say - this way I set volume on low and enjoy your rustling voice in the background. And you create interesting sounds like the paper at 04:08
The man who ironically never sleeps and never runs out of ideas.
Holy christ this is like top 5 of your videos
Thanks for the Check Up. I realy appriciate that. ☺️
his videos are always so well made
Wait... That's a vacuum tube! Yes!!!! I love those things, especially mercury rectifiers. I'm trying to obtain some to build a CB radio. Rift, you have no clue how happy I am to see a vac tube in asmr.
Same.
Model: F4T 455
Use: Alcohol storage unit.
Loveeeeee you your the best fire sleep the only asmr that’s done right
I’ve been waiting for an asmr video like this
Ive watched this guys videos for the first time today and I already see he is underrated
Need some sleep for my second night shif, i got little more than hour left. This is just in time :D
I'm literally just laying down for a nap because I am going on a long trip. Thank ya Uncle E!
E!?!?
The repairman enters the room (Bob the builder starts to sweat)
😂
As a Dwemer steam colossus, my gears haven't been working quite right ever since my creators disappeared...thanks for taking the time to repair me! The parts must have costed you a pretty septim!
A master at his craft.
This one knocked me right out.
As soon as he walked into frame I got tingles!
Well, i think im broken, i now cannot stand any other asmr videos apart from rifts. Literally these are the only ones i can enjoy, any others i try to listen to dont relax me at all, in fact they tend towards stressing me out. Carry on forever rift, you amazing bearded wonder!
I like your sleep videos. U do a good job. calming voice.
Congrats on half a million! I’ve been here since 50k
On another account I was subbed at 20k
Been around since E.R lost his account years back.
22:10 was a good tingle. Thank you!
best video. thanks for the tingles
Fan Fic Post:
The repairman is a cybernetic organism known as an Autonomous Sensory Mechanic Replicant. He is actually a clone, one of many identical cyborgs deployed from the main colonist outpost on LV 426 known as Hadley's Hope.
Built by a small team of scientists working for an off world research branch of the Tyrell Corporation, these replicant clones are all implanted with the same memories of their earlier life, and previous accomplishments, even though a new one is deployed every few months for each specific mission around the various galaxies in the operational area of Weyland-Yutani.
After the mission is completed the clones are decommissioned remotely by a doctor or hunted and destroyed by a mysterious bounty hunter known only as "The Candy Man".
Casey Weaver A+ for imagination
Casey Weaver lol I always thought the candyman was a bad ass bounty hunter that uses candy themed weapons
Uncle E.R always here when you need him :3
Ugh I’m dying, I’ve been so obsessed with androids lately. This was 👍👍👍👍
Fucking sweet fan fics, you my friend are literally 1 the best asmr person on UA-cam, seriously 2 you deserve more recognition. Everything is so creative and isn’t just the base of asmr which yaknow is just sharp noises like clicks or tapping , you make HUGE stories and make each video intresting with what bizarre thing you decide to do , I have literally only found 1 asmr video fo yours I didn’t like and I’ve watched COUNTLESS hours of this account , favorite being the nothing store by FAR
Can you do a Murray Bookchin related asmr video? That would be a dream.
Keep up the excellent work! Love your art.
On this day, every year from now on, I will go to my Annual Sleep Maintenance
More repair man, yessssss!!!!
We need a bloopers video!
We haven’t seen the repairman in some years. I hope he’s doing well; miss that guy.
He's busy hopping from one omniverse to another! He'll back back one day I'm sure ;)
One of the best! 🤩
Going through old times when my father, and grandpa been doing stuff like this. Be my new grandpa/DAD!!
All he had to do was download more RAM.
Cloud computing makes it technically possible
I always watch the ads to support you
Ive been waiting for you for a long time to have enough videos i like to make it worth subbing so have a sub
I will sleep with this video tonight.
Good night... ZZZ
This would be awesome in stream
I mean of course it was live at one point to be recorded but it'd be so strange watching this is a live feed
My favorite trigger was the disinfectant pump thing
another day when i skip music for asmr
Thanks for patching me up, Doc.
Wonderful, you are a pro my friend :)
9AM Rift upload? YUP! Going back to bed. :’ )
6am here but doing the same
Watching this high af and it’s life changing 😂 big facts homie
420
Always the best
1:52 after further inspection, this does indeed appear to be a piece of paper
It's early afternoon here and already you wanna knock me out!
Saw the thumbnail, had to click, love old electronics. Nice centralab rotary switch and tubes! Especially the Coke bottle 6V6-looking tube in the first tube's box. Could be a different type, but those are actually quite desirable and really old.
Interesting... I picked these up at a surplus type of place and they had a ton of the tubes, switches, etc... for cheap. I'm not into collecting for monetary purposes. Just props..
Ephemeral Rift For sure, they fit well. Loved the video.
Ephemeral Rift I’m surprised you managed to find tubes at a surplus, struggled finding tubes anywhere.
AND my eardrums got blown out by the commercial lol
Wonder if rift ever reads comments on these old videos. It's like a forgotten world
Maybe maybe not
BRING BACK THE REPAIRMAN!!!
Ooooooi vacuum tubes. I think I have one matching the original some where in my room
Since this is annual, will you make one the 21 of july 2019, in just a few months? :)
Love how he makes everything a.s.m.r.
Thank you
Watched asmr pretty much every night for about 7 years now I need a T break but it’s so weird w out it
*You always know a Working Joe!*
The truest repairman will repair men.
On our way to million subs
Thanks
So I'm curious, where do you get these props? Are they specifically for this vid or are you some kind of electronics hobbiest? Bc the board you removed had jumper cables on the back indicating previous repair. And those tubes are vintage as well. The better question though is what kind of device uses both digital and analog devices?
As a guitarist, my eye was caught by that rectifier tube
