Secret Life #1 - Everyone Must Sleep! 

"I just do weird things like this all the time, I'm quirky" Etho is probably the only one who can use that excuse

Etho putting the dirt up in his house to steal cleo's bed while everyone was arguing was the funniest thing i've seen in ages

This is actually a genius way of getting people to watch everyone’s episodes to see what all the tasks ended up being!

Dude I can’t, the little detail of etho intentionally not laughing at grians joke to make it awkward so he doesn’t have a good line to run away with, ending up contributing to groan getting his task is hilarious

I love how immediately Bdubs and Etho found each other. They are really best friends and I love it.

Etho and cleo being roommates is the greatest duo I could ever hope for

Etho’s task is easily my favorite so far, just for the sheer side-quest insanity it forced him to endure to make it

26:55 "I need a lot more than one, I need two" -Etho

The Secret mechanic is going to bring a very fresh kind of tension across the whole series because *everyone* is on edge for very different reasons. I might end up watching more perspectives than ever because of how each persons secret will change the scene. One man's "I stole this from Lizzie and Etho just happened to be nearby" is another man's "Why did Martin do that!? I needed that!"

It's so nice to see Etho and Cleo patch things up after the divorce 😊

After seeing the bdub's episode I assumed Etho was in trouble with his task, but the freaking reveal of it being stealing beds made it so amazing.

Apparently (according to Joel and BDubs) this is Etho's panic equivalent of falling in lava lol

So much Etho content lately I feel blessed

Seeing the opposite side of these interactions is hilarious. Etho not laughing at Grian's bad jokes, and Etho being the inspiration behind Mumbo's chimney entrance. And I didn't know anything about Cleo's eviction notice. This episode didn't even mention the insanity with BigB's hole.

I love how a task relatively simple was made difficult because it's the first episode. For what Etho had to go through I say it counts xD

love the secret system just making everyone act like weirdos

I love Etho's participation in the life series! It wouldn't be the same without him haha

With Decked out videos and now Secret Life, we've all gotta be grateful to the hermits and others to help us get all this great Etho content! I've been eating too many snacks lately because of them.

The crystal and debris Etho received are because the Secret won't heal you above 30 hearts. Instead, any leftover hearts will be converted into random items.

Man the decision to remove health regen was so good. It already “uncontrives” red names. in past series red names only didn’t kill early because of content (I.e, you don’t want to end someone’s series too fast) which I always felt was a little forced. Now they’re naturally forced to pick and choose their battles because instigating is an unrecoverable decision.

Of course Etho's secret is not making everyone sleep. Of course it isn't. Sneaky ninja.

Bdubs’ scream at 6:12 the utter panic lmao so happy life series is back! Cleo moving into Etho’s humble abode YES their banter has been so much fun the previous seasons so I can’t wait for more!!

Impulse: "She assaulted me I lost half a heart" Etho: "that sounds about right"😂😂😂

honestly this period we're in right now could easily be considered a golden age of etho's channel alongside season 7 and the old mindcrack days

That task is hard during early game. Not to mention it's hardcore, no one expects you to die on the first night so there's no real rush for a bed. Great job on the strat, Etho!

Etho and Cleo duo? Yes please. The chaos of Etho stealing beds was wonderful

Etho forgot to mention the most important part of the Life series. No Life, the one all of us are playing watching Etho. And I’m all here for it

Of course Etho has to steal beds and starts off with the man who always shreeps.

Etho: Redstone genius, Minecraft veteran, longest Longplay on RU-vid. Also Etho:"I don't know how to make pink..." (nervous laughter. That was funny as something! 😊

I love that gem has acquired a reputation as the most violent hermit

28:24 This who sequence had me laughing so hard! "What in the world?" "You broke my bed!" "I came in the wrong way."

This was a very Etho task. It reminded me of that season of mindcrack where you were stealing crafting tables and you had a massive stash of them

The amount of etho content recently is amazing

Etho's heartrate at 34:50 was *definitely* triple digits, like Decked Out levels of triple digit heartrate

Throwback to UHC. This brings me back, I love thinking about how long I’ve been watching you Etho and seeing you evolve. It’s been amazing.

"It doesn't have a roof but that's on brand" killed me

I absolutely love this because of how obvious it is that everyone is having an absolute blast. You can tell Etho had a big smile on his face the whole time, and there was so much laughing. Absolutely lovely to watch and listen to! Edit: also, for some reason, when Lizzy asked for a pink bed and Etho looked away, then down to the pink flowers, then back to Lizzy, it was super hilarious to me xD I think because 'physical humor' is so difficult to do in minecraft, and you nailed it there lol

Glad to see Cleo and Etho have resolved their differences after their contentious separation

The plan of Etho just making everyone think that his task is making everyone sleep but in reality he's supposed to collect beds is genius

6:12 That was SHOCKINGLY close to a Wilhelm scream.

Having everyone have a different secret task was such a good idea, makes watching all perspectives better

Whenever a new life series drops, I always start with Etho’s perspective. It feels wrong to start with anyone else

Etho and Bdubs caving together to start off a new series is something I’ve seen many times and it never gets old

love the silence to grian's puns 😂, came from grian's channel so you know this series theres gonna be a lot of people watching other perspectives

Using your clarification of game rules to Bdubs as an explanation to the audience through editing around Bdubs' responses was really clever!

The Etho and Cleo roommate season we’ve all been waiting for lol also the friendly rivalry with the island neighbors skizz and tango could be so fun

Bruh, Joel's burn on Etho's thumbnail has more weight now cause its tru 😂here from Ep 3

18:47 "I have no social skills" I'm already laughing so hard I'm tearing up. LOL I need a break for a snack, I think.

Over 8 hours of Decked Out and now more of the Life series. What a month. It's good to be alive.

I first saw Bdubs' POV and was fully convinced your task was indeed to get everyone to sleep. I was so worried you'd fail! That was so clutch at the end but so brilliantly executed. Truly masterminded that one. Great start to the series, Etho! Looking forward to the next episodes :D

When completing secrets that involve taking items or being intrusive, Etho just _has_ to say "You've Been Etho'd!"

"I need a lot more than 1, I need 2" You know I never thought of it that way but Etho makes me learn something new every day.

"Without being caught" is modifying "collect 4 beds" and not "place them on a shrine". All the beds were collected without being caught, so it counts even if Cleo caught him building a shrine

Grian and Solidarity walking past the sheep then asking where the wool came from, and then exclaiming "I hear sheep". Epic Hearing a Minecrafter people look up to say "I am terrible at this game", while playing Minecraft is priceless.

I'm realizing the briliance of this life-series: in any given video, chances are, you'll encounter someone behaving inexplicably; that prompts you to go watch their perspective to find out what was going on! Truly genious of Grian! (Assuming it was his idea.)

Etho had the absolute funniest first task. What a great episode!

I love Etho and Bdubs together, I love it so much. Besties forever.

18:50 the most awkward way to make people sleep played off as “I’m just an awkward person” 😂😂

From Decked Out Champion to Ninja Bed Thief, what a week for Etho!

Lol Etho: youre british you spell neighbour with a u. Cleo: youre canadian youre supposed to spell it with a u too. Yes...yes we are.

This concept is SO funny. Everyone is side eyeing each other haha

"Bros before... Cleo" is a crazy thing for Skizz to say LOL

Bdubs and Scar will be glad to know that Cleo and Etho decided to team up together.

bdubs went to the technoblade school of desperately yelling out his friend’s name when he’s attacked by a mob

I appreciate Etho lighting up the secret keeper rocks at the end, but nicely so you can’t see the torches.

I like how lizzie was like no i cannot take this its not pink! then etho had to dye it for her just to have it stolen before he could lol

It would be so funny if you kept collecting other peoples beds as the series continues. I'd actually really like to see others continue with their tasks as well. As if by completing the task it became their identity for the whole series. That would be hilarious.

Given their relationship in limited life the prospect of Cleo and Etho teaming up this time is simply hilarious beyond belief.

Cleo do end up with very interesting relationships XD Secret life: I will join you Lizzie burning my base! Limited life: I'm Scar and Bdubs mom...? Last life: Gatekeep girlboss and gaslight! Third life: Castle! :D I love it 😂

“No roof. That’s on brand tho.” I died laughing

Man this reminds me of mindcrack season 4 when they had no health regeneration for a while. It was so awesome. It really adds a lot to the game

The task was beautifully done Etho! The tactic of giving out beds to people, pretending that your task is to get people to sleep, and sneaking carefully in the right timing, everything was just done very well and the fact that you made it just in time was the cherry on top

Props to Grian for going along with that totally not suspicious acting

13:57 Tango plopping down a crafting table 2 blocks away from another one. That's how you know you're dealing with a true professional. Reminds me of how I place down a crafting table 3 blocks from my crafting grid in modded

Bdubs building company was such a throwback! Wow, crazy nostalgia! That was about the time I started watching you guys

BigB, Etho, and Mumbo uploads for the new Life series on the same day. A true treat.

I think one of the funniest things is the way etho gets out of the sheep pen and how it keeps changing shape

It’s so funny to see Etho sneaking around from other perspectives

Idk if I’ve ever realized this until now, but my speech patterns are too similar to Etho’s. Like, watching him for over a decade has rubbed off a bit haha. Such a fun personality and friend it’s hard not to pick up some traits ❤

Glad to see the life series is still going strong :)

This series has the potential to be the longest lasting one yet but I also feel like it will be the shortest knowing the hermits

Ah yeah, my favourite socially awkward yet very clever minecraft youtuber. ❤ Hoped to see you back in this series! 😊

This was so extremely entertaining, I was genuinely laughing throughout the entire video. I love the dynamic of everybody on the server and watching things from your perspective, Etho, is always the best!

Literally laughed out loud when Grian smelled the rat

"Oh my god theres a spawner.... itS A CREEPER SPAWNER!?!" *Explosion ensues* The comedic timing here is unparalleled

timestamps: (coz apparently in some theories secret life occurs BEFORE limited life in the timeline) 13:12 "Remember Boat Boys?" 16:50 "Welcome to the Ranch" 33:05 "You're our best new friend" (formation of TIES)

this whole back and forth with grian and the bed is so funny. I cant stop laughing. etho's so silly T_T

Very good quick thinking from etho, made everyone else think it was a sleeping task, and that's why he became a bed dealer ahahhaha :D Also very happy that etho is participating in another life series!

It’s been a few years since I watched an Etho video. Mannnn I love the way his personality has evolved

Love how Etho pushed for everyone to sleep when there was nothing to gain for it

I love it when you all get together!!!! This series is going to be a great one. All of the story lines that are made, brings it all together. I love the interaction this series has with a group of good people. Keep up the good work and see you next time.

31:37 I never heard Etho squil like that in my life! lol Etho and Cleo teaming up is everything i ever needed in my life

LOL Etho’s and Joel’s relationship from being soulmates to frenemies is so funny.

Well, I just finished Cleo's episode. As usual, I always start any Life series with their first episode because Cleo just has that something something special. They're freakin' hilarious and they bring out it in everyone. I can tell I'm going to love your series already from what I've seen. You've never based with any of the 3 people you end up with at the end and I am so excited. Do you know how long your community has been waiting to see you actually collab with Mumbo?! I mean, we had hoped it would be with redstone on Hermitcraft but this is the next best thing. I've also been hoping you'd team up with Grian for a Life series. We got a little taste of it in Limited Life but this will be interesting. And, of course Cleo. You must watch her episode to see how she ended up with you. What a rollercoaster lol Edit: I may have spoke too soon lol Edit 2: Now that I finished your episode... I was way off base with what I assumed from the end of Cleo's episode xD You having to make a pink bed for Lizzie and then Martyn stealing it seconds before you did is just so good lol Excellent first episode. I enjoyed the panicking xD Off to see what the rest of the Lifers secret tasks are. :)

This was actually so fun! I love the way Etho interacts with everyone during the life series ❤

"Is this a task?" "No no no, I do weird things like these all the time, I'm quirky" 🤣

Eventually, life gimmicks will run out. Then you can combine them. Last Secret seems like it would be so interesting. The bogey would have different tasks, and if you died to a bogey you’d lose ten hearts but not lose a life (unless those ten heart would kill you,) and the bogey would get five. Or maybe Double Secret, where each episode you get a secret that ties into another players, and you have to both find your partner and complete it. Limited Secret: limited life, but you can get a few minutes back by doing your secret. Or you don’t know how much time you have, so people would just drop dead out of no where. Secrets Last: where you don’t know how many lives you have, anywhere from 1-6. I could go on, but I doubt many people are even reading this.

Oh man Etho, Cleo, and Bdubs have to be my favorite grouping of hermits, a bit sad Bdubs isn't moving in too, but Etho and Cleo are gonna be great fun!
