I remember this. Max Headroom was HUGE back then & we were close to Chicago here in Indianapolis so it was a HUGE story in the papers and on the news here.
Max Headroom was a character from UK tv (Channel 4) in the 80's, he was a parody tv presenter, suppose to be the first computer generated tv host. He was played by actor Matt Frewer. It was mad, we loved it as kids. TV was boring back then for kids, lol. I thought you would've remembered him, Frank. I think he was more recognizable this side of the pond, tbf.
I remember seeing this here in Chicago when I was 4-5 years old and vividly remember how I immediately associated the Max Headroom mask with the cover of Phil Collin’s album ‘Face Value’. ( then the fucking song plays on this video lol )
You know how you can tell none of this is even happening at all? Today, I was smokin' with my boy, and out of the clear blue, for the first time in nearly 40 years, the subject of Max Headroom comes up. Again, we were smoking, so the mention of it at all was completely random and not super tied into what we were talking about at all. 😂 We literally discussed remembering seeing this happen live at the time. Not even 5 hours later, this is the first recommended video when I got on UA-cam....... 🤯
The sadness after you have watched every episode of The Why Files, Mr. Ballen and Wartimes Stories... now I watch reactions to them. -face palm- Good work as usual!
Max Headroom was Coca Cola's mascot at the time and had a really great TV series 'Max Headroom Twenty Minutes Into the Future.' The original pilot TV movie was a BBC production but the series was then moved to the USA. The premise was great. In the near future digital media is everything and a rogue journalist Edison Carter (Matt Frewer) reports the stories big business is trying to cover up. Max Headroom is an artificial intelligence version of Edison Carter.
I thought there was another hack which had a bunch of religious wording that went up on the screen but I don’t remember. I always thought this case was fascinating.
I was a teen when Max Headroom was on TV. I thought he was cool, but I guess most people were like Frank and found his appearance off-putting, which is why the show only lasted a season. My take-away from this video: I'm old enough to be Frank's mom. 😑 Lol

He said he wasn't born yet, so I can't fault him for not remembering Max. Lol X)

Max Hacks is laughing his ass off somewhere.
Frank watchin youreact to Max was priceless
Clutch Cargo was an animated kids show that was pretty creepy because they superimposed real mouths onto cartoon characters
Watch rap God after this
10:07 Frank: - Was that a real mouth!? 😬
😂😂
There was another TV hack in the 80s in Philadelphia which turned into a huge mystery called The Toynbee Tiles
I remember the max headroom show, I watched it a lot when I was in school back in the 80', hilarious 😆
If you ever have a chance to take an ethical hacker course please do

It was Channel 4, not the Beeb.
As a Doctor Who fan, Max Headroom is a name uttered just so... Crazy to think about all the ways analogue television worked.
Also used in Back 2 the Future. When McFly orders a Coke.
Analog is whole whole different beast.
max headroom was A brief very odd show on MTV circa 1985
Yes. More Why Files please. It is the best channel on YT for this type of content.

Eminem mimics Max Headroom in one of his music videos.
