Update November 8, 2025: when this was posted to my channel back in 2015, it was meant as a gag/joke/parody/roleplay whatever, which I thought everyone would get at the time and wouldn't believe it's actually real. 10 years later (at the time I'm updating this description) and I'm still seeing comments thinking its real, and now with AI videos becoming more prevalent, maybe that's messing with people's trust in what they think is actually real anymore. Anyway, this was recorded in 2015 using either a Sony handycam camcorder, or a mini-dv tape camcorder, I forget which. The date and time at the bottom right of the screen may actually be what I set in the camcorder itself, unless I added that as an effect when editing the video, but again, I can't recall anymore. Hate to ruin the immersion/joke, but there you go.

To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).
To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
