I love how he's just posting his video resume and framing it as normal content. a great way to get it out there.
I mean, I don't think he's really struggling financially. Pretty sure his subs alone are a good chunk of change, not even factoring in advertising, sponsors, and being I believed partnered in Twitch. I doubt he'd open things like Fallout's MTG if he was having a hard time. Pretty sure this is just a general send off to the fans out there.
@@avancarr8690 In recent videos he's talked about how he's doing okay for now, but he is going to start looking for work soon-ish because what he does now on his own won't sustain him forever. So yeah, he's doing okay now. But for how long?
One man's video resume is another man's trip through memory lane, and in this case it's a lot of men's trip.
Honestly, I respect the hustle
Only today did I learn where the heck the lady Baltimore bit came from. Guess now I gotta go watch the weird place.
"I'm Jack." Is one of my favorite lines/deliveries of all time. (The Weird Place)
I have been laid off from a few jobs in the past and it was a hassle. It's been a hassle recently. I'm actually starting a new career position on Monday. I can't imagine losing something like this after 15 or so years where many of your friends work. I'm so sorry, Jack, and to all your teammates.
I also got laid off at a job at uchellos cause it was too slow.
@@MikeDunne Same here in the Cannabis Industry lol.
Jack WAS Extra Life, that entire concept would not exist without Jack, idc about the back end mechanics, Jack was the heart of Extra Life, and you were the true honest soul of Achievement Hunter. RT was iconic in my life for over a decade, I loved it, and I love you and can see only success in your future going forward, whether it be in media and entertainment, or just as a paragon of humanity.
Jack is one of the most creative, talented and genuine people on the internet - I'm sad RT's gone, but anywhere the cast and crew go next will end up immensely better for including them.
@tiffanyroberts6460 lmao
RT will always be missed, but I was far more attached to AH. I really wish the best for them all going forward. They got me through a lot of rough times over the years.
Jack, I am typing this while fighting the tears. You were someone at RoosterTeeth that I could always count on to be a positive light. You brought out so much in everyone though Achievement Hunter, Inside Gaming, and Extra Life. I would plan my vacation from work so I could watch as much Extra Life as possible. Keep taking care of the world you wonderful, kind, bearded man.
So proud of you, Jack. Thanks for all of the great memories over the years. You, and Geoff, and everyone at Rooster Teeth that made it so special - you guys mean a lot to me.
By the power of the beard, we are bonded.
Thank you for everything Mr. Pattillo.
Extra Life streams were one of the highlights of my time as a fan, and I always felt the earnestness and love that went into it. I remember being a sleep deprived college student desperately trying to stay up for 2spooky, excited to see all the bits I missed, and waking up just in time to bawl my eyes out before class as the stream wrapped up and I saw how much good the community was able to do. It actually inspired me to help spearhead making our college's gaming club do an extra life stream for Boston Children's, and I'm very excited to see what comes around for this year. So much love to you Jack, there's a reason I've always stayed following you, and it's your heart and dedication.
We love you, Jack. You were so integral to Rooster Teeth, and thus, integral to making so many people feel at home.
"hi my name is jack and welcome to AHWU" gonna miss you on RT jack. i hope one day you can gather the AH and LP crew again and revive both those channels again, one day
My favourite part about modding for RT, was the fact that nothing was ever out of my reach. If I said I wanted to try something, I got told "we'll see what we can do". I got to try my hand at so much, and was supported and encouraged every step of the way. I love the fact that the I-can-wear-as-many-hats-as-I-want attitude RT has is so visible in this video and through the work Jack has done. Apart from the people, it was my favourite part of working for RT for 3 and half years.
I'm now doing my Public Relations MA in New York and I'm so grateful to Rooster Teeth for getting me here. Good luck wherever you go Jack, whatever team you end up in next will be so so lucky to have you
Much love to you! Hope you got a piece of the modwall!
@@patriciaanderson-money1029 I did actually! It’s currently safely in a box while I’m in dorms, but I’m going to frame it when I get back home :D
Hahaa! That's fantastic! I wasn't the most frequent chater but you mods helped me keep my sanity right after my little was born, so I wish you an the other mods all the best in your future endeavors! Thanks for the good times!
Best of luck in the studies. Hope you ace it.
@@alexanderlambert295 Thank you so much! I'm smashing it so far
insane to think I grew up watching you and the rest of RoosterTeeth (only 10 years, technically, but I was only 12 years old 10 years ago lol) best of luck with everything you do in the future Jack, thanks for everything
ayo krinios a jack enjoyer?
@@canadianbluepants9446 probably achievement hunter/lets play too
The Let's Play Live documentary was the reason I became a sponsor, I couldn't not see it, and I stayed one (and eventually a first member) until the very last day because of you guys at AH especially, but also everyone else at RT of course. But this comment is for you, so I just want to say thank you for all the years of incredible and inspiring content and events and charity work and everything else you gave to the world. You're amazing, love you Jack!
Annual Pass was a ritual thing for me when it was going, I LOVE theme parks but lack the funds to go, so hearing you just ranting and raving about all things theme parks made me so happy. I would love to see Annual Pass return someday! Rooster Teeth was incredibly important to so many, it sucks having it shutdown after 21 years, it hurt my soul watching the final livestream and videos, watching how hard it is on everyone. My heart goes out to you Jack, and every other person from RT
Jack, your kind smile and honest laughter accompanied me through my entire youth. I cannot thank you enough. Please, keep creating, the world desperately needs people like you on the spotlight.
The best years of my life were in college, my buddies and I bonded over the Acheivement Hunter vids and Let's Plays. It was often the best part of an otherwise difficult day. Thank you so much for being part of those days. We're all very proud of what you and your coworkers/friends had created. Wish the very best for you going forward. Thanks again for everything, Bearded One!
Jack, of everyone I’ve followed who is an internet personality, you have always proven yourself to be a genuine, wholesome, actually good person.
I hope for nothing but the best for you, sir. My heart goes out to you, Geoff and everyone else who gave so much to make RT the success that it has been for so long.
Thank you for being a light to those in darkness with your content and your personality, and for all the assistance you’ve helped provide for kids in need.
“There is no real ending. It’s just the place where you stop the story.”
Can't wait to see how you continue your story.
Thank you so much for the years of laughter and the AMAZING work you did on Extra Life.
Even though I haven't watched any RT content for the past 4-5 years, I did watch since I was 7 (5th season of RVB just came out), and I will say that you have always been a true genuine person who cares about everyrhing he does, as well as the fans. I remember meeting you at Let's Play Live Tampa either my freshman or sophomore year of college and got to talk to you and you were just the most kind and welcoming person I have ever met. I still have the pictures and cherish them deeply bc despite the fact that I haven't been keeping up w RT stuff, you guys will always hold a special place in my heart. A lot of my humor and vernacular was influenced by you guys and you truly made my childhood.
I trust anywhere you go and anything you do in the future will be elevated by your presence. 🙏
Every single thing you mentioned here were my favorite things AH/RT did. You were the through-thread for all of them! I'm so excited to see what you do next and continue watching all the crazy things you'll create🧡🧡🧡🧡
thank you Jack. I am who I am in part due to you and all that y'all built. I can't wait to see what the future brings.
I feel like I have to say that out of all of the achievement hunter people, I do think you were one of my least favorites. I think it was something about our personality that never mixed. I never let me hold that against you. You are an amazing creator. Your passion, your love, and your joy shine through every project you've worked on. Plus you're the magic man behind extra life. Youre one of the greatest people to have had a launching point from RT. You'll kill it in these upcoming years, and even if I am not there for it, I am excited for you. Lots of love!
Plus to preface, it's hard to choose a least favorite out of a group of 10 great people. Being the bottom in a room out of 10/10's makes you at least a 9
You and Achievement Hunter made my life bearable for the last few years after my stroke. I had planned to send something to the office as a thanks for years but I was never well enough to plan it (I live in the UK). I hope you understand that you and Achievement Hunter were appreciated and loved for so many years by so many people. You are one of the kindest and most generous people I've ever watched and I wish I had been well enough to meet members of Achievement Hunter (I had a ticket for RTX London in 2017 but I had my stroke a few weeks earlier and was in hospital). Thank you for the many years of incredible memories and laughter, you are truely one of a kind. I only wish I could show this appreciation for all of Achievement Hunter over the years. I wish you the best in your life and hope you can move on to the great things you deserve
It's been an amazing ride Jack. I'm 28 and I've been watching since I was 14. Your humor and creativity got me through some of my worst and best times. You have a fan forever in me. I wish you luck in your next endeavors. I have no doubt that the next 15 years will be even better than the last.
Thank you so much Jack. You did so much for us all, and so much for the kids through ExtraLife, and the world is a better place thanks to you. Love you dude ❤
I discovered AH over a decade ago. To be completely honest, I didn't think you were that funny, but as years passed, your style and personality continually grew on me. I loved watching your relationships with other cast members, people treated you like the awesome dad and it was always just so incredibly wholesome when you were a part of the moment. Thank you for everything you've contributed over the course of your time with RT. Even Geoffs journalistic vocabulary cant articulate what a truly genuinly amazing person you are.
Dear Jack,
I thought I had cried all my tears out in the last two months, but watching this has managed to get a few more out of me. Thanks to you and everyone in AH/RT, I have so many wonderful memories. Even during the toughest times, there was always something to lift my spirits. One thing that I hold near and dear to my heart is the Achievement Hunter Musical. It was released on the day I got fired from my job. My wife and I were struggling, and I had no idea what I was going to do. I was having an awful day, and I saw that there was a new GTA video. I thought maybe it would give me an hour where I could smile and take my mind off things. It turned out to be the musical, and I started crying again because it felt like a prayer had been answered. That day went from being one of the scariest days of my life to one that I'll never forget. Even now, when I listen to those songs, I get a rush of all the emotions I felt that day. But I know that my wife and I made it through.
I'm excited to see what the future brings for you and for others from RT. I know Face Jam is continuing as 100% Eat, and I'm pretty sure F**k Face is continuing as The Regulation Podcast. Hopefully, I will know more tomorrow. And I believe Red Web announced that they were going to be continuing as well in some capacity which is great. It's been enough time since the announcement of Rooster Teeth's closing that I have come to accept what is happening. I'm ready for the future and ready to support all of you guys however I can moving forward. I have been a Rooster Teeth Sponsor and then a First Member since 2010, and I'm not going to stop supporting you now.
Thank you for everything, and cheers to the future.

Jack, you truly are one of the best. Inside and out, you’re a mentor, a legend, and in my eyes a hero. Nobody will ever be such a positive influence like you are. Thank you for all you do, thank you for all you did, and thank you for all you’re going to keep doing. They say all hero’s wear capes, well my hero plays video games. Nothing but love for you my man.
A lot of talented people on the market right now. One hell of a 15 year run Jack!
Jack you're a legend and a badass I hope you Geoff, Michael, Ray and Gavin and everyone involved in Rooster Teeth and Achievement hunter know how many smiles you guys put on so many faces
Finally got to sit and watch, thanks for everything you did at RT and all the laughs you helped bring. Can't wait to see what you do next.
and this is a cheap way to get your resume seen. smart man.
I didn't watch a tonne of RT stuff these last 2 years or so but I was an avid fan starting from Minecraft Episode 3: Plan G onwards and watched everything that was put out for many many years. I think I was 11 when I started watching (definitely way too young but eh) and I'm turning 23 next month. You guys were a huge part of my life and had a huge impact on how I grew up and kinda formed into the person I am today.
From the bottom of my heart Jack, thank you for everything you did. Thank you for an incredible childhood, thank you for tens of thousands of hours of laughs from minecraft, GTA, let's role, destiny raids, haunter, off topic, RT podcast, get gud, all of it, thank you for the years and years of backbreaking effort and work that went into putting the whole thing together. You were the heart and soul of AH and i can't understate how important and impactful you were to it all.
Good luck in the future. I can't wait to see the new projects you'll be spearheading and I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store for you.
You guy's helped a lot this depression and anxiety in 2014 and love to hear stuff we couldn't before.
Jack you are one of the most professional content creators on the Internet, you kept me thoroughly entertained since I was 13 years old, now 24. Achievement Hunter wouldn't have been what it was without you, best of luck in all of your future endeavors, thank you.
I remember the "AH the Musical" being published as "Jack Bag" (?) in the middle of that years Extra Life stream, definitely peaqued my interest based on how much Jack and Geoff were trying to push the audience to watch it, and oh boy, it was a nice surprise!
Thank you for the last 15 years of amazing content and a trip down the memory lane Jack! You were the soul of Achievement Hunter
If I had a nickel for everytime Jack Pattillo made me cry.... I'd be able to fucking retire.
Love you, man. Can't wait to see what you do next
you may have not been a founder but you were a foundation Jack, your content helped me through a lot of things and i honestly can't wait to see what is next for you.
Hey Jack, I was featured years ago on Fails of the Week, I loved watching RoosterTeeth and following Achivement Hunter over the years. I wish you the best of luck and hope you keep us updated because I know so many people would love to see what you do in the future.
Thank you Jack. I watched every bit of rt and ah content for years and I wish you nothing but the best!
jack, you are a shining light on this earth we sorely need. thank you.
Jack is one if not the main reason, I got into rooster teeth and achievement hunter. I still will keep up and follow everything you do bub
As a recent college grad it's incredibly hard getting in industry and one of my biggest fears is stability. I can't imagine what it feels like especially after everything you've put into it over the last almost 2 decades. I love RoosterTeeth and you, and wish nothing but the best. Seeing this makes me hopeful for myself and you. You'll forever be a part of the core memories of so many, never forget that!
Stopped watching RT around 2016 and havent seen you for a while Jack, but youre looking better than ever!! I cant thank you enough for all the laughs you gave me when I was a kid, yall were seriously formative during my adolescence. Best of luck in any projects going forward, youre awesome!!!
Sucks seeing Rooster Teeth end. Best of luck moving forward.
It's mind blowing how multi-talented Jack is. So many great memories over the years. And although 15 years sounds like a long time, it's impressive just how much Jack and AH have achieved in that time. Can't wait to see what's next.
I remember being 12 years old, binging Halo Reach after school, and it was you and Geoff's commentaries on Fails of the Weak that made me discover and follow Rooster Teeth. It's so lovely to see in reflection after all these years that Rooster Teeth had such a positive impact to yourself, just as much as the fans that grew up with them. I don't like picking favorites, but I don't think I would've been hooked to Achievement Hunter without your contribution Jack. You're a legend with a heart of gold, pal. Good luck!
Please bring some sort of Extra Life back! I'm 1000% supporting you if you do this. Thank you for everything Jack - we love you!!!
This is awesome Jack!! Thanks so much for everything, cannot wait to see what you and Caiti do in the future!!
This really reminded me of how much GOLD Jack produced, pitched, or show ran at RT. I've always adored Jack but I guess i never really grasped how iconic you truely are for RT's success.
I've said it through various channels at this point but RT shaped how I am as an editor and Jack, the community you've built has shaped a huge chunk of my recent years. I do wish the best moving forward and I'll say it to you again - this video showcases how much good you've already put out in the world. Excited to see what's next boss
Thanks for the trip down memory lane Jack! You are immensely talented and anyone that hires you will be better for it. I look forward to seeing what is next!
Thank you Jack, I’ve been really reminiscing in the past RT and I’m really excited to see what everyone will do next. Thank you for being a positive force for me to grow up with and I’m sad I could never afford to come to the live shows. I’ll of course be watching as many people as I can from RT. Can’t wait to see where you go!
What an awesome lineup of shows to have spearheaded. I remember submitting an AHWU intro/outro and saw it included on an episode. What a great community behind the content you supported!
Thank you Jack for being you.
Watching, listening and laughing at your growth through the times was an absolute joy and you only deserve the world and more. ❤
thank you for everything you've done, jack. what you've been a part of has brought so much joy to so many people and i couldn't be more grateful for what you've made and the amazing things you've given us.
Jack you were the heart and soul of AH and watching your time at RT over the years has been a joy. Here's to you keeping the same passion and energy in all your future projects beyond RT
Jack I'm 13 seconds into the video, but I already want to thank you for 14 years of content that affected my life, and the lives of millions more. Your voice has been a staple of the content I've watched for over half my life, and I can't thank RT or AH enough for what you've provided me. I'll be follow your work, along with, Geoff, Ray, Gavin and Michael for the foreseeable future. Thank you again, much love from the RT community ❤❤❤❤
While it is sad rt came to an end this video made me happy and excited to follow your guys individual journeys. Can’t wait to see where you go and the great things you do Jack ❣️
I was putting this off because I didn't want to be sad, but it was actually really cool to see some of the stuff Jack worked on again! I can't wait to see what comes next!!
Been down cause of RT going away. Not as much as i thought i was but enough to feel like my childhood just left. Idk if you'll read this jack but thanks to you and geoff and everyone else at RT for many years of laughter and thanks to the AH guys for such great memories of friends just messing around playing games.
Well Thank You Jack Pattillo for giving me, us, something great to watch and be apart of that we will never forget.
Thank you for EVERYTHING.
I’m grateful for the years of entertainment you created. Whether you continue on-screen or find something entirely different, I’m excited for you Jack.
I was just watching all of Phoenix's "Best of Jack" videos, you brought so much joy to me for the years I watched RT. I randomly found "Fails of the Weak" early in its time and was a fan of you immediately. As someone who is usually the older person in friend groups aka the mom, I think I resonated with you and your humor especially because of that.
Always felt bad that fans seemed to dislike you in the early Minecraft days but seems like people really warmed up to you and I am so glad. Thank you for all the amazing laughs with AH and IG, and all your hard work on the charity streams. You're amazing Jack!
Legend. Thank you for the countless memories, and always putting the fans first, Jack 💙
Thank you for all the years of amazing content, I will miss the Extra Life livestreams the most and I hope to see your shining face doing something awesome soon!
Hardcore mini golf is such a delight, the clips brought back so many good memories watching it!!
Jack, you’re a legend. The purest of heart, and I appreciate all that you’ve done.
Thank you for all that you’ve done over the years Jack - an inspiration to us all. Wishing you and the rest of the Rooster Teeth team the best moving forward.
Thank you for everything, Jack.
You had a hand in cultivating so much of the great parts of roosterteeth i hope you continue to do so wherever you land!
Thank you for being a meaningful part of my life, Jack. It's neat you exist.
Love you guys, good luck to everyone in the future. Hoping to watch Extra Life again this year! And I went to Let's Play Live in Chicago and you handed me a piece of the guitar hero guitar that got broke, i still have it and cherish it. Thank you for all you've done to brighten our lives. ❤
The OG and one and only Jack Pattillo. I remember watching AH from day one. You guys got me hooked. Then you guys hired Ray and Michael at RTX on the spot. Gavin living with Geoff was one of the best videos. Thank you for helping me through my childhood. ❤
Jack, you are an amazing person and presenter, thank you for all the laughs and I hope to (and I'm sure I will) see more greatness from you
Love ya Jack. Great Resume you got here!🎉
didn't know Jack had a youtube channel. What a pleasant surprise to still be able to see more of how now that RT is gone. AHWU was a blast. It was such a great way to keep in touch with the community
Oh god the grey in his beard… Jesus watching this is just…. It’s like watching the grandfather tell his story from his time of the 2000’s I will thank the memories I had for achievement Hunter. I’m sad that it ended but I’m also happy that it happened. Thank Geoff, Jack, Michael, Gavin, and ray (Rip Brownman) and other achievement hunters like Lindsay and Caleb. 💜🖤
Love you, Jack. Thanks for entertaining us for all these years
Thank you Jack, such a gem of a man
This is the best way to do a resume, good work Jack!
To any potential hirers and collaborators looking down in the comments - Jack is absolutely fantastic!
I've watched your content for decades now, and you're such an inspiration for your pure creative drive and ability to create such unique and personal ideas on a grand scale. This videos just given me a great list of content to rewatch, good luck on the next adventure!
You forgot the most important one, AH.
Thanks for all the laughs and memories.
This isn't goodbye, this is see you soon
It makes me very happy to hear that you plan on continuing Extra Life I’ve always loved it and how much yall raise for such an amazing cause
Hey Jack! I actually started watching you guys when I was... 13. I'm mid 20s now. It's weird to say but you guys were pretty damn influential for me growing up. You legit helped people through difficult times, and by being a content creator for that long, you had the ability to influence and change people's perspectives, even through entertainment. So congrats! Keep on brotha! 💪
I fell off from watching RT/AH stuff in 2018 or so, before everything went down that year. But from 2011/12 I watched some form of content from the company probably every day. Rage quit, RT Podcast, anything AH/ Let's Play put out. You guys consistently made my day better without fail. Thank you for everything Jack. On to the next adventure
Jack, you have and will always be my favorite member of AH and RT. I admire you for everything you are; your absolutely radiant and beautiful personality, and the amount of care and love you share for both the incredible things you've accomplished during those years, as well as for the people you shared them with. I will follow you wherever you go from here forward, and I wish you and Caiti the best of luck and happiness.
Jack, Thank you for the memories, laughs, and tears, - Kyle
This man has come such a long way from being afraid he was going to be fired for a laptop getting stolen from him, and ordering a gargantuan amount of McNuggets for an event. Absolutely fantastic to see him still on his feet after all this time
Man, Jack. Of all the Rooster Teeth guys, I always related to you the most. I was only a couple years older than you and you were so down-to-earth. When I saw you in the Minecraft Let's Plays and how you'd go quiet when you were getting serious or when people would gang up on you, I just thought how much we were alike. And you running Extra Life, damn, you were a great person and represented the older gaming community so well.
This was awesome Jack thank you so much for sharing. You did so many incredible things at Rooster Teeth and I can't wait to see what you do next (maybe more annual pass maybe?!).
I am so thankful for all you have done for AH and the projects you created. AH is what got me through some hard times by being the entertainment I needed in life, especially between 2011-2013 cause I unknowingly was dealing with severe depression. You made me laugh so much that it made me forget my depression. Personally I thank you for being the Heart of AH that was bursting with ideas and love. I hope to see you again in future content.
I really hope all the stuff that was First only content will be achieved somewhere. I loved so much of what you and the team did and go back all the time to relive these moments.
I pray for everything to work out for you Jack. Thank you for all the fantastic work over your these years. Take care friend
the weird place and haunter were my absolute favorite things that rtah ever did, period. you guys have always been a huge inspiration to me (i've been watching since 2012), but those two shows in particular really, really pushed me forward creatively. massively excited to see where you go forward, jack!
Hope you know how much happiness you and all your crazy ideas have brought lots of people over the years!
Jack, you are a beam of brilliant, kind light in a dark world. I hope you can continue to do things you love for the rest of your life. I can't wait to see what's next. Much love.
This is going to be long but I’ll never forget finding AH in 2012 and it changed my life forever. You and Geoff were people I saw as father figures during rough times (for better or worse haha). I always told myself I would make it to RTX or AH live to meet you guys but never could. I’m sad to see it all end but I truly wish the best for you going forward man you deserve everything this world has to offer. Thanks for all the years of joy.
