WEBVTT 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. 00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:12.640 I'm reacting to my first video, which is Linus Cheats at Hide and Seek, 00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:16.640 where we played Hide and Seek for a Channel Super Fun video. 00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:25.040 So I started at Linus Media Group January 13th of 2020, right before the pandemic hit. 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. 00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:36.400 I then started watching, I guess, everybody else shooting videos and thought, 00:00:36.400 --> 00:00:40.400 hey, if the opportunity ever arises, I'll give it a go. 00:00:40.400 --> 00:00:42.800 And then right after my three months probation, 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.520 they asked if anybody wanted to participate in the Hide and Seek video and I said, 00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:52.880 why not? So I did. I will say the funny part about this video is like, 00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:58.080 I had started whatever three months prior and still didn't know the building very well 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 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.800 around aimlessly trying to figure out where I was going to go. Here we go. 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. 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 00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:23.120 and the winner the- Throwback to when we had only one office. 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:29.760 Now we have three. Last one found is going to get free lunch for a month. 00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:35.520 The most important rule is that every five minutes, 00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:39.120 you are going to have to re-hide within the new boundaries. 00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:43.520 Just like a Battle Royale game, we're going to be shrinking the hiding zone, 00:01:43.520 --> 00:01:47.280 making it much more difficult. Okay, ready? Go! 00:01:47.360 --> 00:01:50.400 Two meters! Oh God! 00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.680 Yo, we have five minutes. This will be fine. Okay, okay. Hey, hey, what? 00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.880 No, no, no, that's Riley's spot. That's my spot. 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. 00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:10.240 We should do it in Labs because it's like way bigger than this building. 00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:12.720 Although I don't know if there would be as many good hiding spots. 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. 00:02:16.880 --> 00:02:21.120 Yeah, true! And also, yeah, way easier to find people. 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.520 We did so much prep. So this is my best hiding spot. 00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.640 I'm having Nicholas help me get in. You'll never ever find me. 00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:32.480 I'll be here. So these hiding spots are crazy. 00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:36.000 Over here, I guess. I am going to see if I will fit in this box. 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.640 Oh, you have to do this point! I'd break. Yes! 00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:44.160 1,800 Got Junk can make it disappear. Typical YouTube. 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.480 Oh, two ads. Two features consider you best. 00:02:47.440 --> 00:02:50.080 I'm going to hide in the corner like this. 00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:55.840 I'm going up there. Yeah, this is where James hid. 00:02:57.040 --> 00:03:02.160 You guys took my spot! Colton, you took my other spot. 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. 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. 00:03:16.640 --> 00:03:18.160 This is a terrible hiding spot. 00:03:20.640 --> 00:03:22.240 Now you can do yourself. 00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:25.280 I'm going in. 00:03:28.320 --> 00:03:32.160 It's so cool to play hide and seek with a ton of creatives. 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 00:03:37.440 --> 00:03:42.720 impossible to find. Riley had a drill to take apart boards from the wall. 00:03:42.720 --> 00:03:45.680 Like, who else would do that? 00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:56.960 They had pre-gutted the arcade machine as a hiding spot for the next day. 00:03:58.160 --> 00:04:04.720 Is that even fair? Probably not, but I guess they get credit for trying, right? 00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.120 They're bad hiders. Oh my god, I can't even see you. 00:04:10.480 --> 00:04:11.840 Are you ready? I'm ready. 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. 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... 00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:29.120 Wow, the building looks so different than it does now. 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. 00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:39.280 You're done. No one hiding in the sheets there? Boy, they are... 00:04:41.840 --> 00:04:43.840 They are more hidden than I thought they would be. 00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:49.040 Dennis, shut up. You're not helping. 00:04:51.440 --> 00:04:52.240 No one-on-one, okay. 00:04:56.640 --> 00:04:59.440 Dennis, you're not making it easier or better. 00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:03.120 So I can just still quiet now? 00:05:05.520 --> 00:05:06.960 I have three minutes, okay. 00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:12.240 Dennis, shut up. 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:19.760 Are you guys just trolling me? Am I on to something here? 00:05:19.760 --> 00:05:21.840 I don't think there's anybody actually hiding. 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:26.320 Wow, it looks so different. 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.920 Well, there's one. 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, 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. 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. 00:05:49.280 --> 00:05:52.320 You definitely stacked with your good karma. Yeah, exactly. 00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:56.000 Linus was just on the other side of this door. 00:05:58.960 --> 00:06:01.680 And he didn't see me. Ed, you're officially the worst. 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 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. 00:06:18.640 --> 00:06:22.880 That's exactly what it was like. I don't believe that there's anyone else. 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. 00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:35.520 Actually, we never used them. Three, two, one. 00:06:35.520 --> 00:06:38.480 I only found one. Let's go out. Please relocate. 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. 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.880 No climbing's a rule? What? It's a stupid rule. 00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:58.080 He's moved from there to here. Yeah, the same strategy. 00:06:58.080 --> 00:06:59.920 It worked. He's gonna hide in this box. 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.840 Cole, what are you doing? What are you doing in there, Cole? 00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:09.760 No, nope. Can't fit in there. 00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:12.640 I don't have another option. 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. 00:07:22.640 --> 00:07:26.320 Like everybody is just so, I don't know, so fun, so quirky. 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:31.760 Wait a minute. 00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:34.800 I'm too fat to fit under the bed. Going under the props. 00:07:37.200 --> 00:07:40.480 Is that Chase? No. It's just good. 00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:44.240 I can't see it at all. Okay, cool. Linus is coming. 00:07:45.200 --> 00:07:46.720 Go. Got a D. 00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:56.400 Another ad. I love how confident Linus is, but in the end, 00:07:56.400 --> 00:08:00.560 he ends up cheating anyways. Okay, okay. God damn it. 00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:04.400 God Mark! Hello. Hello there. 00:08:06.640 --> 00:08:10.320 Got Colton. Got Colton. 00:08:10.320 --> 00:08:14.160 No, I'm not first to be found, right? Oh, is there another one here? 00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:20.080 Oh, wow. No one under the bed. 00:08:22.880 --> 00:08:23.920 Not too much time. 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:28.880 How do I know they're not cheating? 00:08:31.200 --> 00:08:34.240 I'm not going to speak. There's no way. 40 seconds. 00:08:36.560 --> 00:08:40.960 There's one. I thought my hiding spot was so good. 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 00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:53.680 making myself small enough to go under the kitchen sink. 00:08:54.640 --> 00:08:59.120 I feel like it was like either Alex or Anthony sitting across. 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. 00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:10.320 And then also crawling in underneath the kitchen sink in the writer's area. 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:15.600 But it didn't end up saving me. 00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:17.280 That's where I was found. I'm nervous down. 00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.480 It was a good spot. Just not good enough. 00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.960 That's 10 seconds. 10 seconds. Three, two, one, dance. 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.280 Let's go out. Out. One of us is out. 00:09:34.400 --> 00:09:37.600 I've never been so scared of Dennis's voice until this video. 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. 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.240 And Dennis was like, what? Your office? 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:49.440 Got up. Oh my god. 00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:55.120 I think I'm going to win, right? 1-0-3 only. Where's everyone? 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. 00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:05.520 Oh, 1-0-3. This is 1-0-3, right? No. Oh, s***. 00:10:05.520 --> 00:10:08.640 How much time do I have? One minute. Dennis, how do I look? 00:10:08.640 --> 00:10:11.680 It's good. Dennis was going to give me 10 minutes every round. 00:10:11.680 --> 00:10:15.200 And I was like, five. Extreme hide and seek. 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.320 We got the hide part. 00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:22.720 50% as good as other. Oh, no. We have a thermal camera. 00:10:24.640 --> 00:10:29.520 This is where it all goes downhill. That look, that look that Linus gave the camera, 00:10:29.520 --> 00:10:33.040 that is like the look of I'm going to win now. 00:10:34.800 --> 00:10:37.920 You got it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I can't see you at all. 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:39.600 Yeah, I can't see you at all. 00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:47.920 Okay, where's my heat signatures? This is not in the spirit of competition. 00:10:47.920 --> 00:10:51.440 Here we go. There, Riley's calling him out. 00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:54.560 And he didn't listen. Now we're going. What? 00:10:55.680 --> 00:10:58.240 Wait, does it include this office? No, no, no, that's 1-0-2. 00:10:59.040 --> 00:11:01.520 I see heat. I see you. Such a cheat. 00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:06.080 Such a cheater. You knew you were playing with... 00:11:09.760 --> 00:11:10.800 I see heat signature. 00:11:14.880 --> 00:11:18.240 Yvonne's spot was so good. It was so good. 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:21.200 I really wish she didn't have the heat camera. 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.560 I think we'd need a redo just for that reason. 00:11:28.160 --> 00:11:30.320 Where are they? I see heat signature. 00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.680 Damn it, Linus. You got Terran! I can't believe he cheated. 00:11:39.680 --> 00:11:43.360 You can't believe I cheated? Who have you been married to? 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:50.160 Now you have 10 seconds to find James. Five, four, three, two, one. 00:11:50.160 --> 00:11:53.520 Linus, you're done. Where's James? Linus! 00:11:56.640 --> 00:11:57.840 Linus, where are you? 00:12:00.400 --> 00:12:03.760 Even with cheating tools, you can't find him. Even with cheating tools. Wow. 00:12:05.040 --> 00:12:06.960 Linus. Wow. 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. 00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:17.440 What's up? Even with the FLIR thermal camera... Good job, James. 00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:19.280 Here's your winning trophy. 00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:25.920 And of course, free lunch for a month. But in the spirit of fair competition, 00:12:25.920 --> 00:12:30.080 all of the runners up from the last round will get free lunch for two weeks. 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. 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, 00:12:39.280 --> 00:12:42.880 that I can't fit into small spaces. But you know, like Colton, 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. 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.200 But no, no, no, no. I'm the master. 00:12:50.880 --> 00:12:54.160 That video is iconic on so many levels. 00:12:57.760 --> 00:13:02.320 When you look back, as far as you seeing yourself back then, 00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:04.480 what can you say has changed since then? 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:08.560 I think I have gained a bit more confidence on camera. 00:13:10.400 --> 00:13:14.720 I've become a lot busier. I have a lot more design work to do, 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, 00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:23.600 design stuff is my main priority. 00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:28.960 And when the occasion does arise and I do get the chance to do some videos, 00:13:29.920 --> 00:13:31.920 I enjoy myself finally. 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.
