the ending of every 7 hour video essay 

Don't these videos usually end with a 30-minute segment of a sleep-deprived RU-vidr thanking their patrons and talking about all the traumatic experiences that happened in the past 6 months?

I personally like it when they end with “so at the end of the day…is he a good person? It’s hard to say, and there aren’t really any clear answers.”

I, too, listened to a man go from talking about a Roblox sound effect to exposing a company for investor fraud over the course of 2 hours.

Can't believe Tommy Tallarico lied about being on Jimmy Fallon

"Ooh hey a new hbomb video about the funny Roblox sound!" 2 hours and several counts of fraud later:

I can’t imagine how many 7 hour video essays you watched to research for this.

My favorite part is that the image used for the "Italian Mafia" is just a pizza

Don't forget the half hour pateron scroll over a monologue about how this video has caused them to overwork into an 80hr work week for 3 months straight

this sure as hell says a lot about the ending of every 7 hour essay

Just make a video essay we all know you want to

I can't wait when this channel has more videos about video essays than books. And then in the final evolution it becomes about regular essays, with detailed 20 second analysis, released weekly.

Actually, all 3-7 hour essays I've watched usually end like "Well, I guess that's it. Boy that sure was long huh? Fuggin' like and subscribe I guess" [visibly relieved that they finished this absolute beast of a project and clearly don't have the energy for better final words]

I can’t believe I watched a 7 hour essay about why Jimmy Fallon actually has an anti-capitalist message just for it to end like this. He didn’t even start with early cinema SMHMH

I actually have the Guinness World Record for the longest video essay. My mother is very proud.

"Look, I was only going to find out whO mAdE the OOF sOunD EffECt. GIVE ME A BREAK!"

having just finished the hbomberguy's video essay minutes before this video came out, this literally feels like a 20 sec summary of the entire video xD

glad i'm not the only one who's already binged through the 2-hour long descent into madness about a funny sound effect when it's been out for 2 days

Don’t forget the half hour intro about who Jimmy Fallon is, what late night tv shows are, whether you like late night tv shows, the history of all late night tv, and then the history of TV itself for good measure

can’t forget the part at the end where they play the emotional music, their voice gets a lot quieter, and they tie the whole video into how life is a beautiful thing

Long Man Carrying Thing.

Man carrying thing is just going to have to release a seven hour long video to give us the full experience

They usually end up saying, “but just take it with a grain of salt,” as they spent hours talking about the thing

It's just part of the aesthetic of them. If it doesn't end like this, my 7 hours have been wasted, frankly.

I love long RU-vid videos. It makes me feel like I'm part of investigative journalism with the RU-vid editing style and sense of humor while I'm actually just all cozy in bed

Pyrocynical and Hbomberguy are SHAKING rn

When people approach video essays like they do high school level papers

The abrupt ending after tasking meticulous care to nail the timing of everything else in the vid is the most accurate part.

I like how him making this parody implies he has actually watched enough 7 hour video essays to consider this as an accurate parody of them.

truly, one of the most life-changing, thought provoking video essays i have ever seen, the part where you blew into a kazoo for 45 uncut minutes as an illustration of the evolution of language since the early mesolithic era was truly inspiring, which is why i will be recording a 14 hour breakdown analysis of your 7 hour video essay. thank you, man carrying thing.

my favorite will always be *"And as always, thanks for watching." (Vsauce music kicks in)*

hey hbomberguy this guy stole my video, get him

I blame Kevin Perjurer for being too good at his job. Every time Defunctland posts a video, it creates this huge demand for impossibly good feature-length video essays that nobody can fill at RU-vid prices.

I would love to see the full 7 hour version

Roblox oof sound video 😭

And then the patreon read

Yes, but I’m too fat and slimy to look into it fully so I’ll just pretend all of this is true and tell my friends I read a peer-reviewed study about it.

I love these long essays because it feels like you're going on a whole journey of discovery with the creator. The rabbitholes are too fun

I once watched a like 2 hr video about the history of homestuck by Sarah Z that was then followed up with another 1.5 hr long video talking about the all the weird ass legal action homestuck tried to take against her for her video

It’s okay, you can say hbomberguy

Need more than 7 hours for a Jimmy Fallon analysis

Your passive aggression towards video essays gives me the impression of what the Sith mean by "let the hate flow through you" I like it

Wasn’t quite 7 hours but this coming out right after Hbomberguy’s last video is certainly something

I’ve never seen any of your other videos. Instant subscribe. 🎉

I always stop watching theses video essays after 4 or 5 hours!! So thank you for showing us how it ends EVERYTIME

Lmao this vid gets recommended to me the day Jimmy Fallon is getting cancelled

Hbombomberguy moment

This is precisely why I love Sarah Z's videos, they tell so much and still they wrap up so well it's perfect

i need recommendations for video essays like this i love them

My favorite video essays are about some young kid born in the late 90s and early 2000s talking about how some mid game is actually good because they had that game for Xmas in 2006. *Goes back at playing a totally awesome underappreciated gem that Santa gave me in 1994 as an Xmas present*

Usualy your skits feel much longer than they are, but this 7-hour one felt much shorter, I guess time flies when person is entertained

Thank you so much this saved me from watching a 7 hour video essay now that I know how it ends

0:14 hehe, someone almost cracked

I feel called out because these are exactly the type of videos I watch

So that's why Spongebob is a really good show

I retained the same amount of information as if I had watched the actual 7 hour video essay

Wow! Absolutely blown away by the My Little Pony lore breakdown on this one!

god i love your videos

oh hey it happened again

How can These videos about video essays be so true, but make me want to watch video essays more?

Very nice you pick up patterns/stereotypes on things I never thought of

I’m gonna watch this for 7 hours until it makes sense.

I remember a time when RU-vidrs would split a 20 min vid into two parts because analytics told them viewers didn't like long videos. Now anything under 30 mins is considered a short video and people demand hour long videos every month so they can have something on in the background to focus on their homework. Not that all of this is bad, its just strange/funny how much RU-vid has changed

I think that, typically, if the length of a video essay exceeds the time it takes to consume the work it's based on, then it's not worth watching. Most of that time will likely be spent on redundant points, tangent subjects and comedy. A notable exception, I feel, is YMS' review of the 2019 Lion King remake. It's more than a review of the film. It's a well-researched deep dive into the production, marketing, and reception of the film that manages to be funny while remaining focused.

I love when multi hour long video's cater towards my shortening time span.

This ending of every 7 hour video essay really is an ending of all time!

I really appreciate that the roblox oof video is recommended below this

You nailed it with the cease and desist letters

I'm usually asleep for this part, so its cool.

The most important thing is for it to end with, "So what should we do about it? ... idk!! but it's pretty neat/fucked up!"

I always get looped into these video essays they will literally tell me a dog shit movie from my childhood is actually a cinematic masterpiece followed by a several hour long crash course into film history and overanalyzes of characters and the meaning of the movie.

Thank you for making this. I feel so seen.

Seeing this recommended to me right as I was about to watch another 4 hours long video essay feels like a desperate attempt of a wake-up call destined to go ignored against my better judgement

These essays are always about someone who HATES something. Why can't we have an extensive essay about something people LOVE?

In my experience, video essays end with Chopin's Nocturne op.9 No.2 in order for the essayist to lend an emotional impact that is not supported by the writing, delivery or subject matter of the essay.

and yet we're all here for it. watching video essays til death

This is why very long video essays are my favorite. Especially if they delve into abstract concepts in philosophy

Me just browsing through RU-vid happy 😃 RU-vid : here’s a 5 hour video essay shitting on a game/show/movie you like Me:😮😢😢😢

I agree

I have never watched a 7 hour video essay, so I'll take your word for it.

Soon enough we will have the entire 7 hour video essay if Man carrying thing makes enough 18 second clips

I loved the part where he said something about the moment where they go back in time to the first Thanksgiving to get Turkeys off the menu.

This aged somewhat well

I like when it ends with a montage so long, everyone skips it

I’m so glad I watched this 7 hour essay if not I wouldn’t have been able to see the ending

Imagine a 7 hour video essay made and narrated by Jimmy Fallon

hbomberguy... is that you?!?!?

I've only ever watched one 7 hour vid but it was pretty good

Scrolling through recommendations, i saw this video & the thumbnail was immediately demanding me "Mission Report december 16 1991"

the play next video was hbomb's latest video 💀

Can we just appreciate the amount of effort he put into that 7 hour video essay about jimmy fallon🙏

The hello fresh ads in the middle of a true crime murder story are very important

Love the pause after "and I don't like him"

And thanks again to Iranian Government Inc. for sponsoring this video! I wouldn't be able to do what I love without your support

Jimmy Fallon is an international threat

I used 2 bass bosting apps at the same time for the ending seconds there and it was absolutly hallarious 🤣🤣

I got a 15 second ad. Worthy

hbomberguy:

The fact that this man is carrying a thing called "good ironic content" is ironic Because irony nowadays IS the best content tc;du This channel is awesome. Keep it going dude, you're doing a favour for us who want good content.

that one video about the guy suing google that noone heard from again

I watched a video essay just like this yesterday
