I have some context to add! So firstly, to quell the theories, I am NOT GetThePotato. I’m actually just as confused to as who he was as everyone else, but that probably seems confusing. After all, why would the song be named after me, and how would I have it? Well, I was browsing the internet one day, either name searching myself out of boredom or in GD I was browsing levels with “Wha” in the name when I spotted the song. I had to download it, who wouldn’t lol. I forgot the level that had it, but it was a showcase for the song. So how did it have my name? Well, it was an error by the song creator. One of the comments on the level was by some guy, saying something along the lines of “No no no! You got the name wrong! It’s WHALEY not RedWhaley14” which meant some guy had told the artist to upload the song for someone named Whaley. That’s why the song was deleted, GetThePotato prolly wanted to fix the mistake but never did. I remember one day I remembered the song but didn’t have it cuz it was on my old iPad and that was broken, but I recounted it in a call with friends. I described the song, and he linked me with a song that sounded exactly the same. There was even a comment saying “My ears! Also I found this song under the name “Obey RedWhaley14” which confirmed it, but the video was deleted later. I did convert it into a NONG tho, but it was slightly off sync. The level uploaded wasn’t supposed to use the song, first it used Sourcream by aaron and then There by Garlagan, but I replaced the song and uploaded it to prove I had it. Sadly the level using the song and the OG RU-vid video are gone (it was a shitty animated version of the Itsy Bitsy Spider using that song) but it makes for a weird af story. Plus I have no idea who GetThePotato is, he seems to have disappeared off the internet, making this a bit mysterious, like where'd he go? GGs on finding it! And great video
@@EMOJlZ Came up with it a long af time ago, father's favorite color + name of a stuffed whale my father gave me + my father's lucky number. Have had it for a long long time haha
Ok bro. Context, obey the walrus is the scariest video I’ve ever seen. I know people can find it funny and I understand that the person in the video has polio and that’s why they have their disfigurements, but I find the audio and the atmosphere of the whole thing peteifying. So like 40 mins ago I was watching this and I saw the name and I was like “damn that song reminds me of obey the walrus. It’s probably not tho.” As soon as I heard the first part my stomach instantly dropped and my vision shrunk. Good video tho
So, a bit of context: once i was in a call with my friend and he's a non-gd player, and i showed him this video and he recognized obedece a la morsa and he said its from a documentary of a dead guy. Btw whats Polio?
Creepy af song lol, early years GD was wild The most likely explanation is that redwhaley and getthepotato are the same person, and they're just having fun with the song Also nice Ace Attorney music in the background
Believe it or not, we aren’t! It was a guy uploading a song for a friend who wanted one for “Whaley” and he got the name wrong somehow. I explain it more in another comment but I had no idea what the song was from for a while either haha
When I heard the famous part form the “Obey The Walrus” I just stared at my phone in awe.. I had a feeling from the name alone, but I wouldn’t have guessed that I was correct..
damn, when I first heard the song I got memories from years ago when this video was hella popular, for a bit of context, im from latin america and this video was pretty famous for being weird/creepy. pretty interesting video, really enjoyable to watch
Is the iceberg not finished? I thought it was already over, anyway what a fascinating story! It's so funny it came back around to a commonplace creepypasta and was never anything special haha
That video and that song had me traumatized for years, i can't even hear the song because i remember of the video and GOD THAT WAS TERRYFING THE FIRST TIME SOMEONE SHOWED IT TO ME
I saw that at night at My brothers phone and thinked "is just itsy witsy araña (?) Why tho" and when he called the name i turned up the lights i was really creep out
A similar thing happened to me! I used this one startpos copy of Bloodbath that I used for the four months that I was playing Bloodbath until I beat it. I was on the GD server and was in general when I recognized someone's name. It just so happened to be the creator of the Bloodbath startpos. It was pretty cool.
redwhaley really had the time to make a noclip of khorne with deco, but didnt have the time to make his own level sync or update his socials, that level description was blatant false advertising or he was high when making the level. interesting story though, great video, we need more gd lost media videos
@@sameeknowsitall It had to do with the fact that they portrayed a physically disabled trans person as some sort of scary monster of sorts ratehr than an actual human being, which is a little upsetting tbh.
Does anyone remember one creepy gd song called scissorprenzy or scissorprenia or schizophrenia or whatever? It had a morse code that said some coordinates?
whoever made the song, intendeed to call Redwhaley a walrus. Who knows who Get the potato is, but this was most likely done either as a joke or an insult
AMIGO, ESTABA SUPER INTRIGADO POR LA CANCION CUANDO LA ESCUCHE ME EMPECE A CAGAR DE RISA XDDD (i speak spanish) edit: pensaba que era una cancion infantil, cuando la escuche entera recorde, es una creepypasta que dejo muchos traumas a la gente que habla español
bro i watched that video like 7 years ago and I instantly recognized it lmao. also please never dare to say another spanish word again that was worse than the song itself.
