    I like that the narrator never takes the easy way out by simply showing the video with its original audio and ceasing to talk during it; it takes a true video essayist and iceberg content creator to give us the verbal explanation and run-down instead of relying on the video itself to do the talking. I appreciate the in-depth research and elaboration for each entry.

    For Memory Hole, the videos are actually tapes from the 90s sent to America's Funniest Videos as entries. They ended up being rejected for bring too creepy and the people behind memory hole found them somewhere and uploaded them.

      They weren't rejected for "being too creepy", they were just rejected because the AFV team didn't think they were funny enough. MH got the rights to all the rejected clips and, so, personally picks those he thinks ARE creepy enough to use.

    I'm so thankful you told Sandra's story when you talked about Obey The Walrus. I really wish you had talked about Tracey Emin and the horror of the Whitehouse song. The reason Whitehouse is ashamed of those lyrics enough to try and remove them from the internet is because the song is a genuinely horrifying mockery of Tracey's movie "Why I Never Became A Dancer," about her sexual assault. You should really look into it. The youtube video makes it worse, as the gif used is made from a photo of a Japanese rape/murder victim. Too horrible to be a coincidence, in my opinion.

    One creepy/strange video that wasn't on the iceberg that I remember watching as a kid was a video called HORSE, in which a person wearing a rubber horse mask goes around killing people. I was too young realize they were killing people and thought the mask was quite funny. I also remember watching Cyriak as a kid.
    Great video by the way. I like how you provide lots of information on each topic, and your personal stories and thoughts keep things interesting.
    Edit: This video played a large part in getting me into horror. 100% recommend this to anyone interested in the topic.

    Comment on nana(6 numbers), they are seriously one of my favorite UA-camrs. Not only are their videos made with tons of love, but they have a huge bar for quality. They literally spent a YEAR making a stop motion animation, then decided it wasn’t good enough and started making a game with 0 game making experience. Also, they only started their Minecraft series so that their viewers wouldn’t get bored in between horror videos… Also also, they are playing Minecraft with 0 knowledge of the game and I mean 0, they haven’t looked up any guides or taken and hints from a single person, and they have beaten the enter dragon and the wither. The series is incredibly fun to watch, esp if you know everything there is to know about Minecraft. Anyways, amazing video !

    Why was 6 afraid of 7? It's a fairly common question, mostly because when people see 6 and 7 next to each other, it doesn't really make sense. 6 is large, muscled, and trained in multiple martial arts, while 7 is fairly average, physically, and short. However, 6's fear of 7 has its roots in childhood. See, 6 and 7 grew up together, and for a few years, they were best friends. But then 6 kissed 3, and they became childhood sweethearts. 7 secretly had feelings for 3, so 7 decided he needed to destroy 6 to win 3's affection. He started subtly, undermining 6 whenever possible with passive aggressive comments and compli-sults. But over time, things got much more insidious. 7 started messing with 6's performance in school, bringing down his grades and turning teachers against him. Even worse, 7 became great friends with 6's parents and slowly turned them against their own offspring. At night, 7 would sneak into 6's bedroom, and whisper depressing and hopeless things into his ears. Every time 3 was around, 7 would pants 6 and make fun of his genitalia, or try to body shame him in other ways. However, 3 was both smart and compassionate, and saw through 7's schemes, sticking with 6, trying to counter 7's psychological tear-down with compliments and friendship. Finally, 7 decided that he would never be able to win 3, so he drugged both 6 and 3, taking them to an abandoned cobbler's hut on the edge of town. There, he proceeded to torture and maim 3, forcing 6 to watch in horror, unable to do anything to save his sweetheart. 7 didn't kill 3, but instead, put her in a semi-vegetative state. 7 cleaned the scene of his prescence, then called the cops, having 6 blamed for 3's condition. 6 was sent to prison, believing 6 was guilty, 6's parents fell into a deep depression, eventually committing suicide over what they believed 6 had done. After serving 17 years of a 30 year sentence, and getting out on good behaviour, 6, now muscled and skilled as a fighter, thought he might get revenge on 7. But when he finally tracked down 7, he found out that 7 had installed a micro-bomb into 3's body, and should he be killed, the bomb would automatically go off and kill 3 as well. And though she was still in a mostly fugue state, 6 couldn't bring himself to hurt her any further, and decided to try and move on with his life. However, being an ex-con, it was difficult for him to get a job. 6 finally found employment at a diner, which 7 then bought, and proceeded to again undermine and toy with 6 at every turn. 6 tried to find employment elsewhere, but 7 contacted any potential employer and soured them against 6. 6 finally realized that no matter what he did, 7 was going to try and ruin his life, and he resigned himself to living as a broken, lonely man, never able to stand up to the depraved, amoral 7.

    There is more to Poppy that wasn't mentioned. Poppy's style isn't her own, it's entirely copied from the character Mars Argo. The TLDR of their story is that Mars Argo's producer, Titanic Sinclair, broke off from her and found Moriah Pereira and basically made Poppy as a replacement

    • @NEScRETRO
      @NEScRETRO  Рік тому +16

      I am a massive fan of Mars Argo, and generally prefer her music over Poppy. The reason I say poppy's style is her own is because she has long since severed ties with titanic sinclair, and her musical style now is entirely different than anything it ever was back during the early days of Poppys career. Poppy is actually now more unique in her image than she ever was before, so I think the comment still holds true, even if I do prefer Mars Argo musically.

    You've genuinely become my favorite person to watch on this entire site. Your videos are INSANELY rewatchable, and I'm not ashamed to say I've watched this video, your 7+ hour gaming rumor iceberg, and your nintendo iceberg several times over. I love all of your videos for several reasons, mostly that your voice is really soothing in a way (sorry if that sounded odd, i dont wanna come off that way haha), and having audio playing in the background while I'm busy/doing something keeps me focus, I guess the best way to word it would be "your videos are amazing because they help keep me on track, while also teaching me about videos/content I haven't seen or heard of in a very long time, or hear about them for the first time." Might just be an autism thing though, but either way I really respect what you do. I love everything about all of your content.

    Man, the SM64 ending theme was so refreshing and rewarding when I heard it at the end. This is the longest UA-cam video I ever watched hehe. I was able to do so because I work at home remotely and need background noise/narration to keep me from going insane with my repetitive data entry job. This was really nice to listen to, considering my shared interest in the subject of creepy internet media. So I was thoroughly immersed all the way through. I'm thankful for longer videos like this. I wouldn't be surprised if a video like this took 100 hours to make, which takes incredible dedication. I'm hoping the creator was compensated. Good watch.

    I recently found your channel and I can say that you are extremely talented when it comes to content creation. Your video quality is extremely respectable especially for someone working full time. You're awesome bro! I'm not sure if you have a patreon or something but if you did I'd def support it! Your videos tend to go viral but I really hope it starts reflecting on your sub count. You're a great content creator and you've earned a loyal fan!

    in regards to the "girl goes psycho during makeup tutorial" video, it was the15experience who actually made it, saying they received it anonymously, as the15experience was actually a horror project by (and i may be wrong) a film student from finland, its essentially a whole arg with "girl gone psycho" reaching further than the other videos made cause it was so over the top comparatively

    Thanks so much. Your channel got me into iceberg videos thanks to Mario 64 and cause I’m really into Nintendo stuff, I’ve seen all your iceberg videos, but then I started watching regular internet mystery icebergs and arg deep dives, and when I found you made this I was really excited. I listened to it between two separate sittings, and it’s just great, the mystery, args, the creepiness (or sometimes lack there of) it’s great. Just thanks for getting me into this community, and your hard work, your videos are great and I can’t wait to see what you make next. I’m finally graduating from high school this year and i just wanted to say thanks from me and on behalf of my siblings and friends for the future nostalgia we’re gonna have from your videos. Thank You.
    Btw it gets creepy when you’re left questioning what’s real and what’s fake.

    Thanks for making such a comprehensive video. And thanks for mentioning when other channels did deep dive coverage of a particular video.
    I just finished watching/listening to this for the second time through, and I’m sure I’ll be going through it again several more times. I felt like I should be taking notes or adding time stamp comments so I could reference where I need to go back and watch a video or watch a related video.
    Awesome job!

    Love this. Just as note, because I am pedantic. Petscop is not an ARG. It's more akin to Analog Horror. There are not any "game elements". Marble Hornets is both an ARG and Analog Horror. But Petscop is just a story, there was no audience interaction or participation.

      Thank you! I'm always so happy to hear when people use my videos during work, or cleaning, or long car drives, or anything else along those lines because that's exactly why I wanted to make my videos in the first place! I remember being at work one night and listening to Sunflower's Zelda iceberg video. The video had just ended and I remember browsing around looking for anything else long to listen to, but at the time, there wasn't much out there over an hour in regards to icebergs, and that's when I decided to start making my videos lol.

  • @janedoe6121
    @janedoe6121 Рік тому +9

    I previously saw information about the barbie video where it turns out that this woman's other arm is a stump, and I think in the interview she's talking about this; if I recall there was a photo of her in an evening dress where you can see the stump - I think she may even have been a model representing people with disabilities or something to this effect. As for the video called Dreamer Heaven -- I remember seeing Scare Theater's original video on this before it was edited; he edited it out because it was extremely disturbing and highly realistic, it had really upset a good number of people who were viewing it. It may well be real CP. I think he explained why he had removed it, so the fact that he did so isn't mysterious. I know that usually if you're told not to look for something because it's too disturbing, then the automatic tendency is to want to look for it and see it; however, you will not feel good if you watched this, and the bad feeling will linger in you. It will not be enjoyable.
    Another note - I feel like the Grave Robbing for Dummies video is fake - it's just got too many "obviously '80s" elements in it, like how sometimes people overdo the "'80s theme" in stuff - I say this as someone who grew up in the '80s. like how the guy's outfit is so "obviously '80s" and how the video has so many VHS interruptions... it's too much. I feel like it's part of the '80s hype that's been going on for way too long and isn't going away for some reason. The story about the puppet from the children's show being stolen and then used to make the Angel video, that sounds fake to me too. "They donated it to the station and they thought it was a prank so they threw it in the trash and then someone picked it up and made videos with it," it sounds just like a bad story someone would make up in order to have a reason why some weirdo would make videos with a creepy puppet. I don't feel like Gemini Entertainment got the "right amount of VHS disturbances" right either, though it's better than the others; VHS didn't have constant/continuous interruptions like that. The quality wasn't as sharp as videos you see today but it didn't have these continuous interruptions. They mostly happened if you recorded something on top of something else on a VHS tape, then in the transition from one thing to another there would be interruptions like this. Otherwise you might have minimal interruptions on rare occasion, not continuously.
    For the animated short Doll Face, to me the message in the video is pretty clear: women will completely destroy themselves in an attempt to attain the unrealistic beauty standards that are waved before them, and will never actually reach them - because no woman actually looks the way that beauty standards expect them to look. They are expected to look like dolls, not human beings.

    Ok so regarding godly recon, nationsquid did an interview a year or so back with a smaller youtuber and stated that he used to put fake entries in his list videos and that he was kinda ashamed of it now days. He never confirmed which ones he had made up but it’s likely godly recon was one of them and he just removed it from that top 10 so as to not spread further misinfo

    Funny fact update: the creepy tape founded in Croatia was actually a prank. In an analysis video of it in the comments, one of the guys running from the stalker came out and told people to shut up as they're being worried too much and the 2005 footage was only a funny prank. A friend he made on facebook also confirmed the hoax as he and the other two guys in the video laugh about how people thought it was real

    Started this like half way through but some random bits about some thing. (Also amazing video, keep up the great work)
    Best anti-piracy thing in any game is JSaB and how the Dev basically says "Yeah I deserve it because I did it when I was young but Don't Pirate games."
    I thought the Nation Squid video was edited in the in the youtube editor because I think I seen someone cover the same topic on another iceberg were the video just skips over the part in the video about Godly Recon like it was mysteriously removed after the upload.
    Idk but I thought the "Woman with here eyes missing and head trapped in the railing" from Clip094.mp4 was from the Wyoming incident but I did watch ALOT of Nightmind and all of his stuff starts to blend together after awhile. Also about the game, I think it was just a Source game not Gmod (or the Engine Gmod was made in) but you could unlock the camera with console commands and explore the room and find another download link to another source game that was you like crawling through a vent. Maybe they're one game, I don't really remember.
    Now I want to make the Caillou video but it cuts away to like Mandela Catalogue or something.
    The other Lilly thing is one I've seen clips of the ending of countless times and never knew where it was from.
    So, in the "Grave Robbing for Morrons" video you can hear the guy Anthony, start to say his last name and it sounds like "Caz" if remember right. Their was a person named Anthony Caz- (Something, I don't remember) who ironically got arrested for Grave Robbing. So people have assumed that these two were the same person. (I don't remember who did a video on this or if it was in a larger video but I remember it being pretty deep.)
    Edit : Why was evil Stick So low, I thought thats a really well known thing.

    Nice video! Been watching it all day. I'm not a fan of creepy stuff myself usually, but I find it pretty fascinating to listen to a discussion of. But I wanted to comment on the "Ronald McDonald Insanity" one and why it might be in the iceberg. I remember a version of this which I'm pretty sure I saw on 4chan ages ago, where at the 2 minute mark when the pitch drops, there's a "jumpscare" of drawn Ronald+Flandre faces that do the normal creepy image edit things of having hollow eyes and creepy smiles and growing elongated necks. For what's such a silly video it was a big tone shift and definitely messed me up ages ago, despite really not being all that bad of one.
