Sit perfectly still. Only I may dance.
This has to be the worst kind of fame. Being unable to play the game, all because you're known for a meme that later died.
And being condemned to never go beyond the meme.
You watched this in 2018, and it's still commented on and referenced. It never died
@Labyrinth9000 holy shit that brings me back
It definitely didn’t die.
Early memes are different.
Today, we have thousands of memes to remember and “keep” enjoying. When in reality we probably all forget about them a month after they’ve come out.
This meme was in the early days of internet memes. It still lives on.

Blizzard are and have always been greedy assholes.
Play LoR
He should sell a shirt that says
"Leeroy Jenkins.
- Leeroy Jenkins "
LOL
I I would buy it
Where were you dude
@@Sraxton No, wrong game. WoW, not LoL.
He cant
So in other words blizzard used him and didn't even give him a thank you
Gear Grinder51 yep sums it up
They could have at least let him sell Leeroy Jenkins merchandise, I'm sure he would have taken a modest %
They didn't even buy him dinner.
At least he has chicken
at least they could have give him a unlimited free subscription whit expansions included for his wow account.
This channel is far better than Behind The Meme
The Divide that's not that hard
The Divide but not better than the meme review.
Behind the Meme is a mistake
that isn't hard
don't even compare them
Sooo let's recap. Blizzard prevented him from making money from the wow meme, then Blizzard decided to make money from his name
Classic Blizzard. Create a huge meme with just your character name and epic war cry? It belongs to us now and only we can monetize it. Create a new custom game in Warcraft 3? It belongs to us now, we'll sell it and you'll get nothing out of it.
What a joke...
If he could afford a lawyer army to match blizzard he could have easily beatein blizzard in court over this. But not everyone has a hundred millions to throw away on a case in court.
@Jean Bon Terms of service is not a legally binding document and any part of it that contradicts common law is null and void.
@Joe Mama don't insult aids like that
Yes, that's how intellectual property works. Creating a game takes *slightly* more skill and work than screaming a name in a youtube video.
The US Military uses the Leeroy Jenkins video as a “what not to do” when planning and discussing how you’re going to tackle a situation. I’m not fucking kidding.
yes you are
I'm sure it's used more of a way to "engage" the youngins coming in to bootcamp. Give them a laugh amongst all the crying.
@Dick Johnson That's a rabbit hole outside the scope of the military, because it's much, MUCH deeper and crazy. Take the 80's crash courses in "Satanism and satanic cults" as an example, or the famous Surviving Edged Weapons educational video for Wisconsin police officers. The backlog of the things taught by American police schools is insane.
@@gandalf8216 IIRC, the Gurps Cyber-something RPG book was raided by the FBI because the police thought it was *actually* a Hacker's Handbook.
Yes, Steven Jackson games made not AND fun of it in their eventually-released edition.
@Dick Johnson Nah, I just wanted to point out how bizarre American police education stuff can be or has been, and that it's a fun rabbit hole to dive into sometimes. There was no real depth to my comment, or any real point, so consider my comment a shitpost because it kind of was.
There will come a time where Internet Historian will go down in history for being one of the few that documented internet culture during our lifetime, and that both excites me and scares me.
Fantasy Scrub It's arousing
I mean, there are literal terabytes of 4chan archives alone. There are tons of people who just hoard data because hard drives are pretty cheap and it gives them a sense of purpose.
Fantasy Scrub yeah kinda sad, the only other content I saw similar to this is a documentary on twitch plays Pokémon read like a bible
He'll be the fucking Plato of the internet.
But there are already online encyclopedias and shit. It's not like he's telling us something undiscovered before him.
So warcraft used his name and his joke freely and he never got any royalties? wow
Loyalties for what? He never owned either a character, character's name or anything, as nobody really owns their characters or accounts in MMO games, just 'rents' them to say it simply. They didn't ever use sound cue which could be the only thing he could have any rights to.
@@Pawlok131 It's not about 'rights' or letter of the law. It's about courtesy.
@@lordbinkythebuffoon5465 as if big corporations cared about that
@boo
You could easily argue that they are entitled to use it since the meme/joke originated from someone playing their game.
No game = No Leroy = No meme
@@robrick9361 That's like someone getting famous playing guitar on youtube and then the guitar company would use his fame to sell more guitars and say "well if it weren't for us, he wouldn't even be there so we deserve 100% of cashing out from all this fame". Blizzard was a bag of dicks.
And on his dying bed he thought back about the greatest moment of his life. A battle cry in a video game. He's the closest person to a real life pokemon. What a legend.
This comment is underappreciated. xD
@@deadliestvice5356 th-that didn't happen tho
If that's true.. that is just depressing.

Thank you for censoring the cringey public leeroys. Reduced my anxiety lmaoo
cringe censorship should be mandatory in all forms of media, it's much worst than nudity or violence
@@LucasVenturoso It can be a genuinely stellar comedic tool when used well! Just... people don't often use it that well.
That said, I agree with the original comment haha. It helped. :P
@@LucasVenturoso fr. Only if more YTPers understood this.
Censoring people because they told a bad joke is good?
@@LucasVenturoso how do you know when somethings cringe or not lol
I remember my friend always yelling this in 5th grade
me probably
Yelled this when we played cod with my friends, one life only, i died bya shotgun
I remember too.
Aspen Savage cool story bro
whatisthis131321213 It was more of a statement but thanks
This was kinda sad...
Grigori I know right, I felt pretty bad to hear that the fans ruined the server and ran him off the game, and then got cut from the movie to add insult to injury.
Alexa, play despacito 2
Not sad at all actually. He rode out some fame from just playing a video game. Got to be an NPC in WOW etc. Was almost in the movie. That's pretty cool to me.
1000th like.
@@ZEMO74 I think sad in the way that he was having fun being him, but eventually it didn't pay out in the long term and had to do what he originally had to do to eat at the end of the day.
"The movie did alright.... in China"
This surprises me.
Adult Swim mentioned that awhile back telling America "If we see this in the sequel... *shows pandaren race* It's your fault!"
American movies that do well in China are the ones with lots of special effects and action, because they can be easily localized. A movie that's amazing because of its script that relies on English language and a native understanding of Western culture is harder to change for the Chinese audience. That audience represents a ton of money. So Hollywood has drifted even more toward that kind of vapid schlock. There may be a point where American audiences become disgusted enough they refuse to - sorry, nevermind, that will never happen because American standards are so incredibly low.
Remember the overwatch situation with Free Hong Kong?
Pepper ridge Farm and the community members.
But Blizzard is too busy with the recent lawsuit to even hear about it
@@googiegress7459 it was successful because WoW is extremely popular in China
Blizzard are wrong for making figures and putting him in the game without doing anything for him

they cut leeroy out of the movie? no wonder if flopped.
I edited this comment 10 months later after forgetting this comment existed
@@SourCyanide so you are one of the people who doesn't understand what "a movie flopped" actually means...please look it up before you add more to the subject.
@@v1KE4 I didn't say it was good. I said it didn't flop. Whether or not something flopped is factual based on the money made by the movie... Mostly. Either way, it made quite a lot of money.
@@5upl1an so you are one of those people that thinks just because a movie performed poorly domestically, it flopped. No. The movie made 433.7 million on a 160 million budget. That's a very respectable margin competing with the likes of Disney (Pixar... not their box office monsters). Why is it every time somebody tells _me_ to look something up, they haven't done it themselves??
It didn't in China. That country alone turned it into a success.
“He was offered a job a EA...”
Lol
Keep in mind though, even as recently as the early 2000's EA was seen as a good publisher
@@Cryster99 not by the ones who worked there
@@Cryster99 more like we just didn't know they sucked yet, even in those days they were quite content to shove out endless sports and racing sequels with little to no effort put into them, EA just hadn't invented awful MTX yet, it's the only difference.
And a 6 month contract! They must’ve been feeling generous
Rewatching this in 2021 -- even more interesting, with Blizzard self-destructing in front of us.
oh man if only they used him in the movie that would have been such an epic moment.
Self-destructing is putting it lightly it's more like self annihilating
2022 gang here yea
Blizzard will be fine. Stop being gay
Here after season of fantasy filler, where they put in Mccree (not changing a characters name because you want good publicity) voice line "how ya wanna do this?"... And that was the highlight, they're currently running the Diablo franchise straight into the floor, and have doubled their predatory marketing efforts in using every scummy technique they can
Now that Entertainment Tonight song is stuck in my head
Hey
Crazy seeing two awesome history channels supporting IH!
Awesome to see you here as well!
It's been stuck in my head for two weeks!
AlternateHistoryHub i only hear shadilay 24/7 :(
What are you famous for?
I'm really good at yelling *"Leeroy Jenkins"* ....
Shouldnt have been milked.
The original had a certain ring of truth, that made it special. That it was in fact staged and kept going ruined that, together.
I love that a video about Leeroy Jenkins doesn’t once include the signature battle cry in it’s entirety. Brilliant.
Hmm. Wonder why that could be?...
Genius
"His friends left the game"
*overlord flashbacks*
Finding out this was staged is like finding out Santa isn't real :(
It did actually happen, in fact Leroy got kicked out of the guild for a few days over the incident. However it became a joke among the guild and they invited him back and what happened was so funny they decided to use it to make the staged video, hamming it up for a laugh and to make it way more interesting.
Based off true events though.
Oh, thank you for the backstory! Now I'm happy again
Your very welcome.
Melody Borg the incident DID really happen. The video we have today is a recreation of the actual one which wasnt taped so they filmed it
Like it wasnt obvious the video was staged?
Selling Leeroy Jenkins shirt, when you are Leeroy Jenkins, but having trouble with Blizzard''s copyrights.
Then Blizzard basically appropriating his name without asking.
WTF Blizz ?
The Diddler It's _their_ game, they literally own the rights to everyone's characters, thats in the EULA.
Javi B but he can’t sell shirts with his fucking name on it?
Javi B what? Didn’t they make the video? The audio isn’t recorded by WoW, is it?
Javi B well shit
His in-game name? Yeah...they can. They own everything about the account down to the name. If you mean his IRL-name...yeah that is kind of weird that they would try something like that. It most-likely would not fly.
I like how he went from looking NOT like how you expect someone that annoying to look like...
To looking EXACTLY how you'd expect him to.
Almost as if people change with age...

are u a nolife if u like to watch tv or play a sport?
"This can't be good for me but I feel great."
Didn't mention Paladin Leeroy in dark souls. Surely that was a reference
His legacy will never die
It's referenced in Duke Nukem Forever. After a soldier rushes and gets killed Duke says "Damn it Leeroy"
The most surprising thing about this video was that Jamie lee Curtis was in the WoW movie
This is a quality channel.

Why all the hate with behind the meme?
Glow Zoe He ruins memes and hes a normie
that is such a pathetic, spiteful reason.
okay I'm sick of this. why on Earth do people hate behind the meme so much?
danktrash Rearn engirish
It is the most screwed up thing in gaming history, in my opinion. The guy is a legend, no doubt sold millions of subscriptions by what he did. Blizzard cashed in big time on the guy but excluded him from everything, he's not even allowed to use his own meme. Well done triple A game industry. Well done.
"no doubt sold millions of subscriptions by what he did"
Yeah, no. Almost nobody outside of existing WoW players know about this meme.
@@SethJV sure
well i do and i never played it@@SethJV
the card in hearthstone goes "LEEEEROYYYYYYY JENKINSSSSSS" when you play him and "time's up, let's do this" when he attacks
I am pretty shocked that Blizzard gave him such a cold shoulder. I can see how a lot of folks who are meme famous don't, or even sometimes can't effectively market/profit/improve themselves due to the short half-life of many memes. Internet Historian, may your well-deserved internet fame be stable and long-lived: a dynasty rather than a one-off!
thewalex Blizzard = EA light with effective pr
It's especially weird considering that he is a card in Hearthstone
Hammaster they didn't pay him shit though, so it was good PR for free that would be well liked by the community
thewalex
Speaking of Half-Life, wonder of he will do some sort of video on Garry or something of similar meme worthiness
I bet the reason he didn't cash in with the meme was that he didn't hire a professional manager to negotiate and search for business deals. He could have become seriously rich having his brand of breakfast serials and everything, but normal people just do not know how to market themselves and negotiate the deals. It's like top sports players get all sorts of deals that have noting to do with the sport they play, but the managers searches out the people who are willing to pay.
That fcking "cash me outside" girl is a millionaire nowadays. You think she negotiated the deals and promoted her? No. But she was clever enough to hire a representative or was offered the service and they made it happen.
Now the original Leeroy is just a sad bearded guy with a famous phrase he never managed to exploit financially.
Quite a sad ending.
MasterCyconide Electricians make some pretty good cash actually.
Eh its not as sad as some of the others. Nothing he did made him have a negative image in the public eye (his reputation wasn't ruined), most people still know the meme to this day, and he pretty much lives a normal life.
Troy Baker He's actually an engineer so he's probably more well off than most of the people watching this video, including myself.
nice one
+Troy Baker Yeah but the fact that Blizzard kind of forgot about the man behind the character he created is sort of degrading.
6:30 quick "yeah I know" response has had me laughing longer than the video itself
Leeroy Jenkins is also an achievement and an in-game title. This dude sure deserved some royalties from blizzard.
I absolutely adore the pitched and slowed down "ooooo" when anyone says the line
The man who tried to make a career out of two words yelled while in a drunken stupor. Only in America...

this does not surprise me
Cause runescape is retarded
How is this relevant?
Mr Metokur's vid pretty much sums up the whole thing
Also, this happened on the old runescape version, so it was a legitimate reaction imo
I had kids do the Leeroy Jenkins during Rust raids.We lost those raids.
You really got me with the "He died"
sometimes the greatest memories in life are often the simplest ones.
Folfy wtf is your profile picture
"SOMETIMES the superlative nouns in noun are OFTEN the superlative noun" um...
meh, I had some good memories of WoW but I ran into the same issue, the game just got boring n mostly because I was never in a big guild n I never really got any good loot from bosses, this was years ago, I did try it again a couple years ago but quit again :/ The only real things worth doing in this game are Halloween quests, popular bosses and funny interactions which you can get most of that right here on youtube. Sadly the time of personal experience died but it was inevitable, we're all onto new and better things, hell I had played the game since release......more than 10 years ago, I dunno some small part of me wants to continue playing n just pay the 15$ a month just to screw around n forget about it every now n then but meh.
That Guy
Homie next xpac they're going to release vanilla-only servers on retail wow. I think there is still hope and something worth looking forward to, fear not.
You forgot to talk about the fact that yeah, he tried to bank in on the meme, but he was also hired by Blizzard and still works for them. He does shout casting for them in WoW arena tournaments as well as some overwatch stuff, he hasn't gone back to some average life, he is employed by the makers of the game
Thank you so much for this comment, didn't catch up with Leeroy recently!
That's a... pretty average sounding life though?
Jared Franklin what did you think he would be snorting coke off of strippers asses over a internet meme
sauce?
@Főfasírozó lol who the fuck are you
All things considered, I'm glad the guy has been able to live a regular life. It'd be nice if he got some recognition though
At least he'll always be known as the most consistent Legendary card in Hearthstone.
