1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,400 I'm Sarah. I'm a graphic designer and occasional host here at Linus Media Group slash Creator Warehouse. 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:12,640 I'm reacting to my first video, which is Linus Cheats at Hide and Seek, 3 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,640 where we played Hide and Seek for a Channel Super Fun video. 4 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:25,040 So I started at Linus Media Group January 13th of 2020, right before the pandemic hit. 5 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:31,440 I started as a graphic designer and I'm still a graphic designer. I didn't know I was going to end up doing videos at all. 6 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:36,400 I then started watching, I guess, everybody else shooting videos and thought, 7 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,400 hey, if the opportunity ever arises, I'll give it a go. 8 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,800 And then right after my three months probation, 9 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,520 they asked if anybody wanted to participate in the Hide and Seek video and I said, 10 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,880 why not? So I did. I will say the funny part about this video is like, 11 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,080 I had started whatever three months prior and still didn't know the building very well 12 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,320 and then everybody else already had hiding spots kind of figured out and I was just running 13 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,800 around aimlessly trying to figure out where I was going to go. Here we go. 14 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,760 They say there's no such thing in life as free lunch. But here at Linus Media Group, we don't believe in that. 15 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,960 So we're going to be playing Extreme Hide and Seek in our 8,000 square foot head office 16 00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:23,120 and the winner the- Throwback to when we had only one office. 17 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:29,760 Now we have three. Last one found is going to get free lunch for a month. 18 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,520 The most important rule is that every five minutes, 19 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,120 you are going to have to re-hide within the new boundaries. 20 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,520 Just like a Battle Royale game, we're going to be shrinking the hiding zone, 21 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,280 making it much more difficult. Okay, ready? Go! 22 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,400 Two meters! Oh God! 23 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,680 Yo, we have five minutes. This will be fine. Okay, okay. Hey, hey, what? 24 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,880 No, no, no, that's Riley's spot. That's my spot. 25 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:06,000 Pardon? We really need to do this again. Yes, I would love to do another Hide and Seek video. 26 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,240 We should do it in Labs because it's like way bigger than this building. 27 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,720 Although I don't know if there would be as many good hiding spots. 28 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,880 So much pressure! Can't imagine how many people we have. It's going to be a lot more difficult to find places. 29 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:21,120 Yeah, true! And also, yeah, way easier to find people. 30 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,520 We did so much prep. So this is my best hiding spot. 31 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,640 I'm having Nicholas help me get in. You'll never ever find me. 32 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,480 I'll be here. So these hiding spots are crazy. 33 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,000 Over here, I guess. I am going to see if I will fit in this box. 34 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,640 Oh, you have to do this point! I'd break. Yes! 35 00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:44,160 1,800 Got Junk can make it disappear. Typical YouTube. 36 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,480 Oh, two ads. Two features consider you best. 37 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,080 I'm going to hide in the corner like this. 38 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,840 I'm going up there. Yeah, this is where James hid. 39 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:02,160 You guys took my spot! Colton, you took my other spot. 40 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:07,040 I don't think this is going to work. You can't see, but it's pretty high up. 41 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:14,800 It comes from the bottom of the game. It comes from the top. I'm just going to hide in the stairwell. 42 00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:18,160 This is a terrible hiding spot. 43 00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:22,240 Now you can do yourself. 44 00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:25,280 I'm going in. 45 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,160 It's so cool to play hide and seek with a ton of creatives. 46 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,480 Because I feel like we really go out of our way to find a spot that's just like 47 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,720 impossible to find. Riley had a drill to take apart boards from the wall. 48 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,680 Like, who else would do that? 49 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,960 They had pre-gutted the arcade machine as a hiding spot for the next day. 50 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:04,720 Is that even fair? Probably not, but I guess they get credit for trying, right? 51 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,120 They're bad hiders. Oh my god, I can't even see you. 52 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:11,840 Are you ready? I'm ready. 53 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:20,640 Actually, this could be harder than I thought. You know, I wonder if I should get farther away from the entryway. 54 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,400 Just because if they're smart, they won't be that close to the door so they don't... 55 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,120 Wow, the building looks so different than it does now. 56 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:35,920 Get found right away. The thing is, once you're found the first time, you're completely out. 57 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,280 You're done. No one hiding in the sheets there? Boy, they are... 58 00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,840 They are more hidden than I thought they would be. 59 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,040 Dennis, shut up. You're not helping. 60 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:52,240 No one-on-one, okay. 61 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,440 Dennis, you're not making it easier or better. 62 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,120 So I can just still quiet now? 63 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:06,960 I have three minutes, okay. 64 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,240 Dennis, shut up. 65 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,760 Are you guys just trolling me? Am I on to something here? 66 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,840 I don't think there's anybody actually hiding. 67 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,320 Wow, it looks so different. 68 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,920 Well, there's one. 69 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,240 The funny thing is where Ed hid was my initial hiding spot and then I was like, 70 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:43,440 screw it, I'll help him hide in the box and then I will try to figure out where else I'm gonna go. 71 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,240 He ended up getting found first, so maybe it's a good thing I didn't hide there. 72 00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:52,320 You definitely stacked with your good karma. Yeah, exactly. 73 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,000 Linus was just on the other side of this door. 74 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,680 And he didn't see me. Ed, you're officially the worst. 75 00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:08,960 This part was so scary because you can hear Linus and you can hear Dennis getting closer 76 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:17,520 and they were right there. I felt like the kids in that scene in Jurassic Park where the velociraptors are like chasing them around the kitchen. 77 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,880 That's exactly what it was like. I don't believe that there's anyone else. 78 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:30,560 Yeah, there's storage things here. I forgot about that. I was so incredibly close to being found. 79 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,520 Actually, we never used them. Three, two, one. 80 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,480 I only found one. Let's go out. Please relocate. 81 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:49,520 What? He's no ceilings. See you later. David's hiding spot is genius, but I still don't really understand how he got in there. 82 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,880 No climbing's a rule? What? It's a stupid rule. 83 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,080 He's moved from there to here. Yeah, the same strategy. 84 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,920 It worked. He's gonna hide in this box. 85 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,840 Cole, what are you doing? What are you doing in there, Cole? 86 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,760 No, nope. Can't fit in there. 87 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,640 I don't have another option. 88 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:22,640 I love the team interactions in these videos because it is so true to exactly what life around the office is like. 89 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,320 Like everybody is just so, I don't know, so fun, so quirky. 90 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,760 Wait a minute. 91 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,800 I'm too fat to fit under the bed. Going under the props. 92 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,480 Is that Chase? No. It's just good. 93 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,240 I can't see it at all. Okay, cool. Linus is coming. 94 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,720 Go. Got a D. 95 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:56,400 Another ad. I love how confident Linus is, but in the end, 96 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,560 he ends up cheating anyways. Okay, okay. God damn it. 97 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,400 God Mark! Hello. Hello there. 98 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,320 Got Colton. Got Colton. 99 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,160 No, I'm not first to be found, right? Oh, is there another one here? 100 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,080 Oh, wow. No one under the bed. 101 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:23,920 Not too much time. 102 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,880 How do I know they're not cheating? 103 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240 I'm not going to speak. There's no way. 40 seconds. 104 00:08:36,560 --> 00:08:40,960 There's one. I thought my hiding spot was so good. 105 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:48,320 So good. I was like, there's no way anybody's going to find me in here. But I was also so stressed that people were judging me for like walking in and then just 106 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,680 making myself small enough to go under the kitchen sink. 107 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:59,120 I feel like it was like either Alex or Anthony sitting across. 108 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:04,480 And I was like, do I ask them for help? Because I was just so nervous, still getting to know people. 109 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:10,320 And then also crawling in underneath the kitchen sink in the writer's area. 110 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,600 But it didn't end up saving me. 111 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,280 That's where I was found. I'm nervous down. 112 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,480 It was a good spot. Just not good enough. 113 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,960 That's 10 seconds. 10 seconds. Three, two, one, dance. 114 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,280 Let's go out. Out. One of us is out. 115 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,600 I've never been so scared of Dennis's voice until this video. 116 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:44,320 Wait, what? Yeah, he came in here the last minute and Dennis knew I was in here. 117 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,240 And Dennis was like, what? Your office? 118 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,440 Got up. Oh my god. 119 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,120 I think I'm going to win, right? 1-0-3 only. Where's everyone? 120 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:02,080 You just were usually won. I think David's going to win. He's a wily guy. 121 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,520 Oh, 1-0-3. This is 1-0-3, right? No. Oh, s***. 122 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,640 How much time do I have? One minute. Dennis, how do I look? 123 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,680 It's good. Dennis was going to give me 10 minutes every round. 124 00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,200 And I was like, five. Extreme hide and seek. 125 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,320 We got the hide part. 126 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,720 50% as good as other. Oh, no. We have a thermal camera. 127 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:29,520 This is where it all goes downhill. That look, that look that Linus gave the camera, 128 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,040 that is like the look of I'm going to win now. 129 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,920 You got it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I can't see you at all. 130 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,600 Yeah, I can't see you at all. 131 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,920 Okay, where's my heat signatures? This is not in the spirit of competition. 132 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,440 Here we go. There, Riley's calling him out. 133 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,560 And he didn't listen. Now we're going. What? 134 00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:58,240 Wait, does it include this office? No, no, no, that's 1-0-2. 135 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,520 I see heat. I see you. Such a cheat. 136 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,080 Such a cheater. You knew you were playing with... 137 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:10,800 I see heat signature. 138 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,240 Yvonne's spot was so good. It was so good. 139 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,200 I really wish she didn't have the heat camera. 140 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,560 I think we'd need a redo just for that reason. 141 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,320 Where are they? I see heat signature. 142 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,680 Damn it, Linus. You got Terran! I can't believe he cheated. 143 00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:43,360 You can't believe I cheated? Who have you been married to? 144 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:50,160 Now you have 10 seconds to find James. Five, four, three, two, one. 145 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,520 Linus, you're done. Where's James? Linus! 146 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:57,840 Linus, where are you? 147 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,760 Even with cheating tools, you can't find him. Even with cheating tools. Wow. 148 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,960 Linus. Wow. 149 00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:14,000 It was the garbage bag. So literally being trash makes you the winner of hide and seek. 150 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,440 What's up? Even with the FLIR thermal camera... Good job, James. 151 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,280 Here's your winning trophy. 152 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:25,920 And of course, free lunch for a month. But in the spirit of fair competition, 153 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:30,080 all of the runners up from the last round will get free lunch for two weeks. 154 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,680 I was pretty confident I was going to win. I gave myself like a three out of four chance. 155 00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:39,280 You know, some people think but just because I'm the most physically imposing person in the office, 156 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,880 that I can't fit into small spaces. But you know, like Colton, 157 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,960 like he thinks just because he's built like a bag of flour that he can get into smaller spaces than me. 158 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,200 But no, no, no, no. I'm the master. 159 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,160 That video is iconic on so many levels. 160 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,320 When you look back, as far as you seeing yourself back then, 161 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,480 what can you say has changed since then? 162 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,560 I think I have gained a bit more confidence on camera. 163 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,720 I've become a lot busier. I have a lot more design work to do, 164 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:21,200 which is kind of a shame because I do love being in videos. But yeah, at the end of the day, 165 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,600 design stuff is my main priority. 166 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,960 And when the occasion does arise and I do get the chance to do some videos, 167 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,920 I enjoy myself finally. 168 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:39,920 Ah, I don't want to look at myself. Oh my God, I was a horrible taving jaros, horrible.
