the tattoo is a burn mark from when he was fighting his brother after he said he would destroy the journal. if you watch the flashback again pay attention and i'm sure you'll catch it this time
I find it funny that there are so many comments trying to remind them of Stan's burn mark when they figure out what the tattoo is themselves like 9 minutes into the video lmao.
The message put together: I was so blind. He lied to me. The darkness is near. From the first until the last, search the codes of credits past. One means one so search them all. Welcome to Gravity Falls.
Being in this fandom during the show’s airing was a real experience. The way people were frantically pausing every shot to examine it, playing stuff backwards, and just generally dissecting every frame of this frickin show was wild. I’ve always loved that kind of stuff so I’m so glad I got to be there for it all.
Did you guys really not notice that Stan’s tattoo is a burn mark from his fight with Ford? It was literally one of the highlight of that fight scene in The Tale of Two Stan’s.
It's a lot easier to notice of you are already know there's a mystery around his tattoo to be looking for. If you watch the shorts after it can easily go unnoticed because you don't know there's a mystery behind it.
weve seen the tattoo with the fight with ford when the portal first opened stan got burned on hot metal during the fight and it caused either a blue scar for stan tattoo'ed over it in blue so it didn't look like a burn
I believe Lefty is a gag that can only really be accomplished in 2D animation (and also because the GF citizens aren't that bright). Lefty is also the short I've seen the most since Disney XD was really fond of constantly showing it during commercial breaks in comparison to other shorts. That aside for those wondering the remaining shorts are as followed: Mabel's Guide to Life Fixin It with Soos TV Shorts Mabel's Scrapbook Aside from Guide to Life (which has 5) each one is 2 episodes each. Finally the remaining GF related stuff I'd recommend watching are the Lost Legends fandub, Between the Pines, Mystery Shack Shop At Home with Mr. Mystery, the GF Pilot and Pocalypse Preppin.
The gide-behind actually was not invented by Gravity Falls. It is a creature, who exists as myths and legends in our world and was the "reason" why people always thought, that they were beeing watched in the woods. A grim fact, in the old legends, the hide-behind even hunts humans. He picks one, who is alone in the forest and follows his prey, but not out of the woods. He will always hissss behind you to drive you crazy and let you loose your orientation. When you finally have a mental breakdown or come to your knees do to lack of energy, he will emerge from his hidingspot and feast on you. Sometimes, when he is impatient, he will appear at the edge of your line of side, often behind a tree, lurking at you, but only for such a brieve moment, that you one recognize, that something big, skinny and black may be there, but at the same time qustion, if you start imagining things... God, I love the tales of this creature!
There is a video of the comics that was voice acted into what amounts to an extra couple episodes. It's very well produced. The head of the project also does a podcast on Gravity Falls and they just just interviewed Alex Hersch and Ritter. Super cool.
4:25 I was wondering what that clips at the end of every Dipper’s guide to the unexplained mean until it was a hint to “Society of the blind eye” episode
A reaction to the letters between Alex Hiersh and ppl who censor stuff at Disney would be cool. It was so funny to read. No idea how ppl write for the channel if they’re that annoying lol
Tattoo is a burn mark that showed up in the show when the Ford and Stan fought, Ford threw him into burning mark and so technically it ISNT a tattoo...it's a burn mark from when they fought
you really should check out the whole Cipher Hunt event that was organised right after GF's end , it also has to do with the last cipher and the bill statue
In the episode where Ford and Stan are explaining their backstory, when they are fighting over the book, Ford pushes Stan into a symbol that burns his back and creates a permanent burn mark that is his tattoo
Maybe do a recation to the comic series: Lost Legends. They are kinda like the shorts as they are short stories that take place with our favorite characters. Also the art style in the comics is really cool!
Dear God, i just realised that Alex also worked on the "Inside Job" and the show has the "Bear-o" charaacter, just like the plush from the "Gravity Falls" short, ha ha
Other Gravity Falls stuff you could check out after these include- 'Pocalypse Preppin' With McGucket, Soos' Stan Fiction, Journal #3 Infomercial, Mystery Shack Infomercials, Call Me Mabel, and We'll Meet Again (10th Anniversary). There's also the notes between Disney Standards and Practices and Alex Hirsch.
The reason they said to watch the shorts before the second season is because ein season 2 it shows a flashback of Stan and Standford fighting and Stanford shoves Stan back while they are in his lab with the portal and the exact symbol on his shoulder is also on the thing he falls onto then screams because it burns him. It's not a tattoo and he refused to show it because elater he says he knew about the weirdness of gravity falls but was trying to keep it away from his grandkids to protect them. Love this reaction by the way. I'll be updating this as I watch. I also have the book but it's currently lost. I was decoding it for a while but life happened and now I've lost it. Update: I think you guys have this I'm not going to continually update it throughout this video. I do have a suggestion though. They have comics that are in video form wether it's dubbed by a fan or totally silent on UA-cam or other sites that "Continue" the story which are made by the creators of Gravity Falls just some people took pictures and made videos of the books together and I'd love to see you look at those on a video.
I think the stuffed animal tree in Mabel Land is a reference to Dipper's armor when fighting the candy monster. Everything in Mabel Land is a callback!
It's funny I guess I remember some videos saying the giant head saying backwards Stan is not what it looks like but in spanish that thing just says "a New era beggins"
A tale of two stans (2x12) shows stans tattoo is a burn mark but as far as I know the symbol itself is never explained. I don't have the journey so if anyone else does and it says what that symbol is it would be cool if I could know.
I think you guys would love these theory videos: ua-cam.com/video/_Jbq2EEPG14/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/P6SOXMGXB1o/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/-HGyIuumn5Q/v-deo.html

They saw it then too and said he got branded...They just aren't connecting the dots xd
it's weird because they literally referred to it as a brand when watching it in the series and just completely forgot like-
I got the ciphers in proper order: “I WAS SO BLIND. HE LIED TO ME. THE DARKNESS IS NEAR.”
Ford talking about Bill Cipher
@@Unhinged_Pegasus69 fr
Fun fact: “the hide-behind” is an actual creature from north western folklore, it’s pretty much one to one.
Only the Gravity falls one is non lethal (I hope 😭)
If you play it in reverse, the island head creature says this: "You have awoken me from my slumber! Enter my mouth, children! Enter your destiny!"
I find it funny that there are so many comments trying to remind them of Stan's burn mark when they figure out what the tattoo is themselves like 9 minutes into the video lmao.

Amen to that.
I was too late unfortunately. Started watching a few months after that scavenger hunt thing. Really wish I had gotten to be part of it

just didnt remember thats all not that big a deal
Just shows that these shorts really should be watched between seasons 1 and 2.

I’m pretty sure Lefty was bro g piloted by some aliens from the space ship. It was in one of Bill’s hidden messages.
HA,they did learn about where Stan's tattoo came from it was literally in an episode
5:20 But you guys know what is Stan's tattoo is the thing is that you guys didn't watch this before season 2 to notice about it

🤣🤣🤣🤣

There’s a cool dub of the comic on UA-cam too so barring copyright notice you can watch it too.
They should watch the dubs. It would make for four videos
PLEEEEASE watch a video on the Cipher Hunt. Absolutely insane
what they said ^^^^^
THE MOLE MONSTER IS THE REFERENCE TO THE 90'S SHOW 'AHHH REAL MONSTERS'
Dear God, i just realised that Alex also worked on the "Inside Job" and the show has the "Bear-o" charaacter, just like the plush from the "Gravity Falls" short, ha ha

The tatoo is a burn mark. He got it when he was fighting Ford, when Ford entered the portal.
7:53 I was seriously expecting the little monster to shrug after Soos asked him that.
Same 😭😭😭
Mabel's Scrapbook and Mabel's Guide To are separate shorts, so please make sure you watch them both!
I hope you react to Between The Pines!
You should definitely checkout some scenes reversed since they are talking backwards like the tooth, mabel eating the dip candy and many more.
What the floating head said in reverse. You have awakened my slumber! Enter my mouth, children! Enter your destiny! RAAAAHH!
You should watch the between the pines, little shorts, they give some details about the show from the creator him self.
11:58 I just realized that 3012 is the year Time Baby is going to regenerate... really is the end of the world 😂
If yall enjoy anthology, i recommend watching the show love death and robots, each episode barely last 15 minutes long so its a quick watch.
As a person behind the mailbox is probably a good one of the time baby Associates of the infinite symbol
The burn he got was the tattoo
It's nice to know that we'll live to 3012

19:10 Until Ford casually grips the alien adhesive covered item in front of us all
I think the stuffed animal tree in Mabel Land is a reference to Dipper's armor when fighting the candy monster. Everything in Mabel Land is a callback!
14:06 Try using the numbers in order
Watch the Gravity Falls Cipher Hunt! There's a UA-cam video that documents what happened after the show ended.
I love how every creature is a reference of a movie or a real creepypasta
Stan still having his suit on in the shower was such a baller move
The tattoo was the brand from Stan falling into the hot machine fighting Ford which burnt him
15:28 THOMSON MOMENT
YAY Audio!!!
It's funny I guess I remember some videos saying the giant head saying backwards Stan is not what it looks like but in spanish that thing just says "a New era beggins"

You saw the tattoo in the blackflash when Ford pushed him into the machine
The tattoo is the burn mark he got fighting ford in the tale of to stans
The lake monster is speaking backwards! If you reverse what he says you’ll hear a secret message
I fully believe the Hidebehind is real
Will you guys react to "Bofuri i don't want to get hurt so i'll max out my defense" ?
Alex obviously took inspiration from Meet Dave on that one.
Yaaay! The audio is fixed! 😃
well... Lazy Susan was doing what she was made to do, spin around in a circle.
For the tooth the monster is actually speaking backwards and there are videos on UA-cam of the audio reversed
12:06 my favourite soos moment
Decode the backwards message of the island
There are compilations the backwards messages played forwards. You should check those out.
When the schedule of amphibia there's some reference
Yeah, this is why you should have watched the shorts after Season 1.
The tooth is terrifying😱😱😱
There was a creepypasta about a giant head in a lake that ate the narrator's boyfriend but I can't remember the name...
maybe the mailbox connected to time baby?
You already saw it. In tale of two Stan’s. It’s not really a tattoo it’s a burn mark from when the boys were fighting over the journal
Thx for the reaction
You should watch all the backwards messages in gravity falls
They showed the Tattoo, it was during bis Fight with Ford.
Film theory: Bill is still alive.
Finally we know that you really do not pay enough attention to what you are watching like it seemed.
Oh, we knew already :3
Sad they didn't know that the tooth monster was speaking backwards.
You guys should watch Between The Pines. Alex Hirsch talks about the show and characters and I think you’ll like it

Can you do react entire Amphibia series

Love your videos! But you should really check out a series called adventure time if you haven’t already.
Wait. Why does the video keep saying members only? Hope it doesn't happen again. 😆
Thats the old one that had the first couples mins muted. Its been deleted now
Watch season 2x12 if u wanna know why he got that tattoo
