There is nothing scarier than seeing a youtuber for the first time and realizing they aren't actually their goofy little profile picture and instead are a real flesh being
They are not a creature made from metal and wires, an advanced artificial intelligence manufactured to recreate a human being, but rather are like us, like you and I, flesh and blood. Human.
profile pictures and personas are like visual versions of pen names. The creator gets to have a picture that's like the reflection of their soul and personality in a way that their real physical appearance doesn't necessarily capture. I think that's pretty neat
3:20 please PLEASE warn us before putting a ginger jumpscare, my children are scared half to death and i need to convince them gingers dont exist again for the 3rd time this year
The editing on this video was fantastic, as well as the script and VO. Really managed to keep the pacing great throughout, and deliver all the necessary information in a reasonable amount of time. Great video man, I think this is some of your best work, and I'm really looking forward to whatever you decide to make next.
Yeah, I grew to appreciate that version of the Backrooms, where the focus is on the namesake instead of various eldritch creatures appearing throughout it. The lack of lore gives the Backrooms its charm that can't be replicated elsewhere.
I think both interpretations bring value to the piece And honestly while I definitely prefer the early iterations with maybe a few variates levels from the early times (pipe dreams legitimately freaks me out) I’m not gonna harp on people having fun in their community It’s much better than the brain rot Backrooms UA-cam shorts that’s for certain
For me, I don't mind the occasionally monster or enity. however it should be a "always luring in the shadows and don't even know what real or not". I remember seeing an backrooms video where the monster aren't shadow thing, but prehistoric animals lost to time. it give the backrooms the sense that time also screwy. Also if the enities actually kinda cool and interesting. Alot of the enities from these backrooms stuff are well.....lame. seriously smilers. look i admit there are some enities that decent like leviathan from oceans.
I feel like what Kane Pixels has done has been great, but by making his Backrooms series, he inadvertently made a cash grab for so many people. An occurrence all too common within the internet anymore. I love Kane, and this his series is great, and don't blame him.
@@glacierwolf2155 Yeah thats true. I understand why people liked the old version, because crippling loneliness in mono-yellow hallways is some kind of mental torture. Then again it's also interesting to explore beyond that.
THIS IS AMAZING MAAAAN The what show is encouraging to make videos that are not related to tf2, man thats greate i'm really happy for him and this video is amazing Keep it gooing as u want man
bro your content is always enjoyable and im excited to see what this video has in store. Also I cant wait for an interloper update of there is gonna be more.
Liminal spaces resonate with me a lot, especially large, indoor areas with stairs and many doors. They remind me of the Lancaster City Convention center, where Zenkaikon takes place every year in March. The building has extremely high ceilings and long staircases, as well as winding hallways and smaller rooms on the upper floors.
The scariest part of the backrooms to me isn't even the liminality or the feeling of being possibly stalked by some unseen thing. It's the fact that I genuinely could have sworn the backrooms image (and concept) was on the internet longer than 2019.
Imagine taking the time to go visit the place itself, just for the camera to act up and do some weird autofocus error just as you record the main doorway.
Nice to see that the building still exists and is maintained, feels like a lot of the popular pictures are in places that are currently basically falling apart or have been demolished
It’s sorta poetic that a building that so many people associate with emptiness and the unknown is now full of life, filled with excited enthusiasts ready to fill the room with their excited voices. I guess nothing really stays ‘forgotten’
The Backrooms image was one of the greatest mysteries of the internet that has finally been put to rest, and yet both the Jeff the Killer image and The Mysterious Song are still out there in the wild somewhere.
legend has it that TheWhat Show dumped his only hard drive with the old version of Interloper where he said "council" instead of console in the backrooms
i always imagined you as being a little guy, sitting on a stack of books to reach his computer, so it was a bit surprising to see that you are actually a normal sized person
as a member of the virtual world discord server thank you for covering this (also will you ever cover the wallpaper search when we find it? just curious)
I have a hobby town near me in Ohio. Been going there since I was a child and it's a very nostalgic place to me. Kinda funny that the most famous liminal space was taken in a place that I personally have childhood memories and nostalgia for.
TheGoatShow does it again. Great video as always, amd they say TF2tubers cant make other great content. Keep up the great work TF2 or not. We will be here, King
Hello, Mr. TheWhatShow! I've come here to tell you that according to youtube's gaming recap, I am in the top 0.1% of your fans, and watch you 23x more than the average viewer, making me your #1 fan. I would like to say sorry for taking this title away from someone cooler.
I remember seeing the guy who found it also I've always thought that the backrooms photo was from like 2014 or smth, its always such a shock to see that its from 2019

Do u watch better watch tv and ur a member??
The back rooms are pretty scary. Imagine turning a corner and coming face to face with a Nude, T-posing Heavy.
I wouldn’t be scared if I saw naked heavy… hehe
🥵
I'm an old-world backrooms enjoyer, where the backrooms was a thing in itself rather than a type of SCP-esque world.

Elmaxo made that one thumbnail and all other youtubers went "yoooo"
1:20 saul goodman jumpscare warning
Thank you for the warning I didn't want to get jumpscared
It scaered me so much 😥
17:58 I played enough Counter-Strike to recognize cs_office
THIS IS AMAZING MAAAAN
The what show is encouraging to make videos that are not related to tf2, man thats greate i'm really happy for him and this video is amazing
Keep it gooing as u want man
bro your content is always enjoyable and im excited to see what this video has in store. Also I cant wait for an interloper update of there is gonna be more.
Please do more of these types of videos The Wutster, theyre great!
I'm loving the move towards more spooky internet lore videos, I loved a lot of the old stuff but this is much more what I like to watch
Liminal spaces resonate with me a lot, especially large, indoor areas with stairs and many doors. They remind me of the Lancaster City Convention center, where Zenkaikon takes place every year in March. The building has extremely high ceilings and long staircases, as well as winding hallways and smaller rooms on the upper floors.
I cant belive the W in TheWhatShow stands for Wisconson
Honestly I'm glad it wasn't taken down or anything. The building has a lot of history it seems, so I'm glad it's being used for something
The scariest part of the backrooms to me isn't even the liminality or the feeling of being possibly stalked by some unseen thing.
It's the fact that I genuinely could have sworn the backrooms image (and concept) was on the internet longer than 2019.
Real
Imagine taking the time to go visit the place itself, just for the camera to act up and do some weird autofocus error just as you record the main doorway.
Bonus points for the Jumpscare being the Redead scream, it always gets everyone I know that I’ve seen hear it
This video is so awesome it deserves 2 billion views
Nice to see that the building still exists and is maintained, feels like a lot of the popular pictures are in places that are currently basically falling apart or have been demolished
Bruh The skeleton at 10:13 actually gave me a freight because i'm already on edge by the backroom photo.
It’s sorta poetic that a building that so many people associate with emptiness and the unknown is now full of life, filled with excited enthusiasts ready to fill the room with their excited voices.
I guess nothing really stays ‘forgotten’
I ended up in the backrooms one time
Then I walked up to the stage.
Truly one of the most engineer gaming moment
1:12 ok i have not been prepared for saul good man
I wasn't prepared for TheWhat to actually look that much like his avatar
ERM i copy pasted the jpeg and it WASNT the backrooms pic
What a story. Everytime I always find myself shocked at what the fuck the internet users can discover from a simple image.
i didn't expect a sailor boy with a lollipop who plays tf2 to make a fucking backrooms video
The algorithm did not like this one, wasnt recommended to me :( only saw it now
I was expecting a interloper vid, but this is good as well
Thank you for this interesting investigation, LeQuoi89. Always a pleasure to see what you have to show.
those other photos of the backrooms look really liminal. great video
i dont know guys but this feels pretty liminal
Feels pretty lemon-y
Lemonrooms
really enjoyed this video and looking forward to you doing more of what you want!
The fact it now looks like a big version of my local hobby store is really funny to me
i love when thewhat makes vids on random horror related stuff
The Backrooms is my favourite payload map, glad to see it getting the attention it deserves
Imagine you glitch out of reality and the first thing you see is a bunch of toy cars racing around.
The Backrooms image was one of the greatest mysteries of the internet that has finally been put to rest, and yet both the Jeff the Killer image and The Mysterious Song are still out there in the wild somewhere.
tbh this is prob the best length of video essay to me atleast, its enough to procrastinate to but not too long that i feel bad about it
23:12 "The backrooms photo was real" The one piece is real
legend has it that TheWhat Show dumped his only hard drive with the old version of Interloper where he said "council" instead of console in the backrooms
i always imagined you as being a little guy, sitting on a stack of books to reach his computer, so it was a bit surprising to see that you are actually a normal sized person
Awesome video! Happy to see you make videos about something else than tf2
I honestly think that Hobbytown just has a piece of their store that just looks like Level 0
16:48 that kind of sound like the irl Freddy's pizza hoax
As a 4chan user for a pretty long time I KNEW I had seen the backrooms photo way earlier than 2018 as everyone had been saying.
If TheWhat pivots to more general content like this I'm honestly all for it. Very well done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
man companies are really running out of ideas, now we got TheWhat Show live action remake
Love the use of Aphex Twin, made me tear up with nostalgia.
Thank god the backrooms exist
I have things to read about when bored
Aka, the different levels
12:12 yep that’s true. We instead use the greatest outlet and plug to have ever graced this side of the western spiral arm.
this was an awesome video! i just cant wait for the next video on interloper :0
3:20 Okay I did not expect that face reveal.
Liminal spaces have always been a strange case to me
3:20 Dude he made it so scary by adding this creature in. I aint sleepin tonight...
I love how ad reads are sometimes the only reason we ever see certain UA-camrs’ faces.
Also, corn on ramen, eww, real Pomson energy
14:00 the DBH music goes hard

TheGoatShow does it again. Great video as always, amd they say TF2tubers cant make other great content.
Keep up the great work TF2 or not. We will be here, King
This is the part where i annoy you about interloper B that just came out even though you are no doubt already aware of it
14:14 love the Detroit become human music. Noticed it nearly instantly.
A bit late on the findings for the location, but I always love a good backrooms video
vvhy does the vvhat shovv no longer look like ed sheeran...
Will you be covering Interloper again at any point?
I support this form of content from this channel
1:18 i can't believe i actually got jumpscared by Saul Goodman of all people
its in the back of my rooms i just saved you 33 minutes thank me later
Oh dang they’ve got a good selection of Gundam at that store
I love investigation esc videos covering lost or obscure media great video
Great video! Also TheWhat Show face reveal?! Nice !
Bros voice DOSE NOT match his face but some how it DOSE??
I actually went to hobbytowm a month or 2 ago. It was a nice little store, i bought a model Pontiac Firebird T/A
Love the video! Please don’t jump scare me with a ginger again though 😢
3:20
MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!
I love watching this and enjoying it until I remember you saying big finger on the chuklenuts podcast

I’ll need to stop over there the next time I stroll through Oshkosh.
Wild how the internet culture is still downstream of 4chan
At 24:20 it feels like a summoning salt video
I remember seeing the guy who found it
also I've always thought that the backrooms photo was from like 2014 or smth, its always such a shock to see that its from 2019
🤣 Yah got me good with the British one there.
Was like "whup!" then that happened. 🤣
Ah well, still a great video of for this picture though. 😁
i never thought there would be closure on the backrooms. and yet here we are.
The breaking bad joke………………………..why was it always so damn yellow
I thought that was shounic talking at first
5:30 thought you was gonna mention taiwan
Ayyy a TheWhat video that's not TF2? I'm interested!
The backrooms was located before GTA6, let that sink in.
*opens the door to reveal a sink.*
ironic that im making a school project about liminal space and nostalgia as soon as this dropped.
Didn’t know I was this early, dang. Hi TheWhatShow!
the fact that he went there is crazy
TheWhat escaping the TF2 bubble.
Funny to think I've driven past the backrooms and didn't even know it
