Creepiest TV signal hijacking: the Max Headroom incident

WEBVTT

1
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.599
Okay, we'll move on to the
next story. I'm excited about this story.

2
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:11.400
It's got video with it. I
don't know how familiar you are with

3
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:16.160
the Max Headroom signal hijacking in nineteen
eighty seven. I know a bit about

4
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:19.800
it. Yeah, we're gonna talk
about that tonight. A lot of people

5
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:24.160
consider this to be really scary.
To me, it's almost humorous, but

6
00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:29.800
I can see where it's pretty freaky
too though. Oh yeah, and this

7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:32.759
is a well known thing. But
there's got to be people watching this right

8
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:35.479
now that have not heard of this, and I'm excited to share that with

9
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:38.880
them. Sound good, Okay,
So, yeah, this is the Max

10
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:45.000
Headroom signal hijacking. On the night
of November twenty second, nineteen eighty seven,

11
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:49.359
the television signals of two stations in
Chicago, Illinois were hijacked, briefly

12
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:56.560
sending a pirate broadcast of an unidentified
person wearing a Max Headroom mask and costume

13
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:59.280
to thousands of home viewers. So, just to go to a little bit

14
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:03.599
of a backstory year on what or
who rather Max Headroom is. He's a

15
00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:07.680
fictional character that they really got going
in the eighties. I think it was

16
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.920
actually played by an actor. But
this is advertised as like the first computer

17
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:17.599
generated TV host TV presenter. It
was clearly just an actor. I think

18
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:23.840
they got makeup on him and other
prosthetic things and contact lenses, and I

19
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:26.120
think the way they shot with the
camera they tried to make it look like

20
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:30.439
this was an AI generated person.
The lighting looked weird, right, and

21
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.319
he would have this weird the background
to be moving, these like straight bars

22
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.480
had been moving behind him, and
he actually caught on. I think it

23
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:41.719
started as like he had like a
television series and stuff. He caught on

24
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:45.959
to the point where I believe major
companies were using him, like Coca Cola

25
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.079
for other advertisements, things like that
he was well known. Put it that

26
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:53.439
away. This is not the first
time this had happened with the broadcast television.

27
00:01:53.560 --> 00:02:00.280
There was a real notable event that
happened the year before with HBO where

28
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:07.560
somebody had hijacked the HBO signal and
broadcast at a message essentially complained about the

29
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.000
price jack and then I don't want
to mess up the terminology, but HBO

30
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:14.479
basically made it where you weren't going
to see it for free anymore. They

31
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:17.039
would mess with the image. I
think they called it scrambled it. So

32
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:21.080
this wasn't a new event, new
thing that happened, but this is definitely,

33
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:24.599
like probably the most notable one.
Obviously there's stories that go back to

34
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:29.759
like War of the World's Plan on
radio and stuff like that, but this

35
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.560
one is pretty creepy, so we'll
get into it here. Okay. So

36
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:36.120
yeah, like I said, this
was the night of November twenty second,

37
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:39.319
nineteen eighty seven. This takes place
in Chicago, Illinois. The first hijacking

38
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:44.840
of the radio of the airwave took
place at nine to fourteen PM during a

39
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:50.879
sports segment on WGN's TVs the nine
o'clock news. Home viewer screens went black

40
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:54.479
for about fifteen seconds before footage of
a person wearing and Max's headroom mask and

41
00:02:54.520 --> 00:03:01.439
sunglasses is displayed. The individual rocks
erratically in front of the rotating metal panel

42
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:07.120
behind him. You could tell it's
it's somebody in a Max Headroom costume,

43
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:10.560
but they're trying to mimic this background
that's moving around. Like we talked about,

44
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:15.520
it was just a bunch of buzzing
sounds on this first one is as

45
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:20.479
if the audio did not go through, So it was strange. This lasted

46
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.159
about twenty seconds and was cut off
when the engineers that were on shift then

47
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:29.680
changed the frequency of the signal linking
the broadcast studio to the transmitter on top

48
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:34.520
of the John Hancock Center. I
do have a video to share of this

49
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.960
first event when they were able to
take over the this particular news channel.

50
00:03:38.960 --> 00:04:00.599
Slowt me pull it up here,
dump of Pine McMahon McKennon fourteen Nothing bears.

51
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.959
Well, if you're wondering what's happened, so on my actually the computer

52
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:23.480
that we have running our news from
time to time took off and went wild.

53
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:26.160
So what we're gonna do is tart
over from the top of the Bears

54
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:30.160
and tell you once again about the
thirty to ten victory they had over Detroit

55
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:34.639
today out of Soldier Field. So
yeah, this first instance goes by and

56
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:41.279
the news crew on shift actually acknowledges
it, right. They don't know what

57
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:47.360
happened back then. Funky things that
happened sometimes, like what you're trying to

58
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:51.519
display would get scrambled or whatever it
get stuck on the screen, So they're

59
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:55.680
not really sure what happened. At
this point in time. Like I said,

60
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:00.279
there's no audio, it's just a
brief interruption. I think that I

61
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:02.720
say maybe fifteen seconds. I think
the whole thing went on twenty seconds in

62
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:08.800
total, So just weird. Nine
to fourteen at night is a very is

63
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:12.959
a primetime television time, right I
mean. And they kind of blew it

64
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.560
off and said it was the computer
doing funky things, which I guess back

65
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.560
then probably people didn't really know as
much about computers either, right, so

66
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:23.959
they're just like, hey, this
is just this is computer acting funky.

67
00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:29.000
Right. Moving on later in the
night. This is at about eleven twenty

68
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.240
pm, and that is the same
night. However, this is a different

69
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:36.959
station. The first one was WGNTV
that eleven twenty pm on WTTW. It's

70
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:44.079
the essentially the local signal for the
PBS station. It was interrupted during Doctor

71
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:47.439
Who. It was a horror of
fang Rock, which I'm not familiar with

72
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:53.000
that, But the culprit of this
hijacking of the airwave was the same.

73
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.879
It was the Max Headroom impersonator,
and this time audio actually came through.

74
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:02.000
Let's just go ahead and share that
clip before we discuss it. This is

75
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:06.120
where things get freaky. You should
do gotten with the old ones of your

76
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.800
child. But it is the only
way to learn. I'll get you a

77
00:06:10.800 --> 00:07:10.040
hot drink and dry checks worst cases
as Oh, I guess they're giant master

78
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:45.040
my greatest barl newspaper nerds. My
mother were the other one. Suppose I

79
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:50.160
can tell the massive Yeah, freaky, So let we'll go on with the

80
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:55.560
description of the events. Here the
mass figure made a comment about nerds,

81
00:07:55.600 --> 00:08:00.439
calling w G and sportscaster Chuck Sworsky
a freaking liberal, held up can at

82
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:03.160
Pepsi while saying catch the wave.
That's a slogan from the campaign for Coca

83
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:05.839
Cola. That what we were talking
about the Max Headroom character was doing,

84
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.720
and held up the middle finger inside
what appears to be a hollowed out sex

85
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.800
toy. The figure then ran through
a series of quick comments and in song

86
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:20.560
snippets with exciting noises and explanations,
Max saying the phrase your love is fading

87
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.240
Hu, part of the theme song
for the nineteen fifty nine animated series Clutch

88
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:28.160
Cargo, and he then said I
still see the X. This was a

89
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.440
reference to the last episode of that
show. He also started rambling randomly about

90
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:41.919
the files and explained that he had
made a giant masterpiece for the Greatest World

91
00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:46.159
Newspaper nerds. WGN's call letters actually
stood for World's Greatest Newspaper. Could have

92
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:52.440
just mixed up there, and he
was describing sharing dirty gloves with his brother.

93
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.840
After a crude video edit, the
person had mostly off screen at this

94
00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:01.320
point. He had his partially exposed, but talks visible from the side with

95
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:03.639
a female figure wearing a French made
costume what appears to be a mask.

96
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.759
This is on the right side of
the frame. She is spanking him with

97
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:11.960
the fly'swater and he was holding the
mask out there for a second before that

98
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.720
and scream and I know they're coming, make it stop. The female,

99
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:22.039
like I said, figure was spanking
him fly'swater. The image faded into static,

100
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:26.240
then viewers were returned to the doctor
who broadcast this is a total interruption

101
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:33.000
about ninety seconds. Technicians at the
stations could not counteract to takeover because there

102
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:37.840
were no engineers on duty when this
happened. So this is a SEARS tower

103
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:41.799
now known as Willis Tower. I
guess where the station's broadcast tower is located.

104
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:48.039
According to the station spokesperson, technicians
monitoring the transmission from the headquarters attempted

105
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:52.919
to take countermeasures but couldn't The director
recalled that as the content got weirder,

106
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:58.639
we got increasingly stressed out about our
inability to do anything. The pirate broadcast

107
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:05.759
actually ended because the pirates transmitting ended
it. By the time the people really

108
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:09.559
got into looking what was going on, it was already over with. They

109
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:13.679
received a bunch of phone calls about
this. Then some experts. FCC gets

110
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:20.519
involved in stuff, and the broadcast
intrusion was archived by sending a more powerful

111
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:26.600
microwave transmission to the station's broadcast towers
than the stations were sending themselves, triggering

112
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:30.559
a capture effect. This was a
difficult task in nineteen eighty seven, but

113
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:35.120
was possible before American television stations switched
from analog to digital signals in two thousand

114
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.559
and nine. But even so,
we've seen things happen with the digital signals.

115
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:41.879
It's just not quite as easy to
do, I guess. Experts have

116
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:48.440
said that this stunt required extensive technical
expertise and a significant amount of transmitting power,

117
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.639
and that the pirate broadcast likely originated
from in the line of sight of

118
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:58.360
both station broad broadcast towers. No
one has ever claimed responsibility for this.

119
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.840
There's a lot of speculation now up
there about the identity of this Max person.

120
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:05.919
Really, nothing solid has ever come
out of this. People have said

121
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:11.000
it's former employees upset with the station. People have tried to connect it to

122
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:16.840
various other people. Nothing's ever come
of it. Soon after the investigation,

123
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.200
FCC official quoted it in news,
reporting that perpetrators would phase A five,

124
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:24.200
which excuse me, face a maximum
fine of ten thousand dollars and up to

125
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.159
a year in prison. However,
the five year statute limitation has done long

126
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.159
past. No one's ever been identified
in the case of who did this?

127
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:39.039
I love that so much. I
guess it's crazy and messed up, right,

128
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:46.039
but I love how like crazy early
television, you know, eighties television

129
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:50.039
was out, like there's no security
at all. You just needed a lot

130
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:58.200
of electrical power and an antenna and
you could blow out their transmission and take

131
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:03.480
it over. That's so crazy.
Yeah, what happened where it didn't really

132
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:05.080
work? The first time? I
get somebody was there working. First of

133
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.399
all, they're able to counter it, but it's like the audio didn't go

134
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.960
through. I guess it must be
when you're intercepting a signal. Maybe it

135
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:16.000
varies. I think they had just
enough power to get on the screen,

136
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:20.080
but not enough to blow out their
audio entirely. Do you think this is

137
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:24.120
scary to some people watching it?
Absolutely? Yeah, I mean it's crazy.

138
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.120
This is a crazy person doing this. I mean, obviously whoever did

139
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.600
it is slightly unhinged. And so
you have a person that has it's like

140
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:37.919
the Joker and in Batman he takes
over the airwaves at one point and he

141
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:43.240
does a broadcast like this in the
mac Michael Keaton Batman. I thank even

142
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:48.639
So, yeah, this is a
crazy person would do and if they actually

143
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:52.639
applied themselves, they could be a
terrifying person. Yeah, we got a

144
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.279
lot of comments saying things like that
unstable person. Then people are asking why

145
00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:58.840
would they come forward now? Right
like it's all done. They can't get

146
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:03.480
ruble for it. Nobody had a
clay responsibility for it though it seems like

147
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:07.320
something you'd be like, oh,
I did that. You know it's crazy,

148
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.919
as I'm sure you are. Besides
the people who did it, I'm

149
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:15.360
sure that there are a lot of
people in deeper par pockets of the Internet

150
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:18.960
who know who did it. And
I don't understand why no one's coming forward.

151
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:22.240
That is super weird because there's more
than just the people who were there

152
00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:28.759
who know guaranteed they probably told somebody
at some point. A lot of people

153
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:31.200
are so sure it's an inside job. I'm not so sure. Yeah.

154
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:35.399
So, like you mentioned early on
in the HBO thing which happened like the

155
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:41.919
year before or something like that,
Yeah, so that was a guy who

156
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.960
who did run like another station and
he just sucked hijack. Yeah, he

157
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:52.840
hijacked their signal to you know,
everything like that. So like these people

158
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:58.519
probably had access to some stuff and
they just decided to use it for something

159
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:05.639
crazy, Like they weren't like part
of WGN or was WGN Is that right?

160
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:09.639
The first one is WGN, the
second was wttw okay Yeah, yeah,

161
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.519
so I don't believe they were affiliated
with either of those two stations,

162
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.039
but they were definitely people who worked
at somewhat other stations because they knew at

163
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:22.519
least the broadcasting power. So when
I was researching the HBO in the incident

164
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:26.399
that happened here before, they were
talking about how there for a while they

165
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:31.360
were like both amping up their power
to see who it who could take over

166
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:37.039
the frequency, but HBO actually backed
off because they were worried that it would

167
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:39.320
blow their trans I get like blow
a transmit or I don't know how to

168
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:43.639
describe it. They're worried that it
would damage their satellite if they continue to

169
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.919
up their power. So that's why, I mean, that's why they like

170
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:52.639
let it go. Yeah, it's
really crazy, And like I said,

171
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.200
that's something I really like about that
era of TV and radio and stuff like

172
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:03.519
that. Radio is still saying what
you can build a little FM transmitter and

173
00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:09.159
then pump in a lot of electricity
and you'll overpower the local FM radio.

174
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:13.279
They gather his HBO got like a
one year probation in his ham radio license

175
00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.639
second way for a year or something
like that. That sounds about right.

176
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:22.279
Yeah, you see, it's weird
like these uh these uh finds and like

177
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.799
everything seems a little low. But
after but because of the HBO thing,

178
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.080
they made a federal offense. Oh
did they? Yeah, so that's why

179
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:35.240
the person didn't come forward then yeah, but now so long later, it's

180
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.480
like, why why would you not
do that? Let's talk about the obscene

181
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.039
gestures he was doing though, Luke, that was gross, Like it's a

182
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.039
gross thing to do. It's a
gross person to do that. And light

183
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.120
because you're you don't know who's gonna
be watching this. Granted this was at

184
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:54.840
like eleven o'clock at night and but
eleven twenty, but this was still a

185
00:15:54.879 --> 00:16:00.559
PBS station like oh broadcasting dish.
They entered a couple kids. They interviewed

186
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:03.240
like a bunch of different people,
like I saw news reports. Some people

187
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:07.919
were like it was funny. Some
people were basically called them terrorists. Some

188
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:11.440
people were kids are staying, they're
scared. There's like a bunch of different

189
00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:15.240
It was a mixed reaction, but
some people were legitimately freaked out. So

190
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.799
here's the thing. These people are
deliberately doing weird, gross stuff like that

191
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.960
when they know it was a good
chance to a kid is going to be

192
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:26.360
on the other side of that,
and so yeah, that's a terrifyingly gross

193
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:30.600
thing to do. It's a weird
thing to do. I just think it's

194
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:34.639
funny that it was even impossible to
be done. Like it's you know,

195
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:40.519
technology has changed so much. They
like you said, it can still technically

196
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:45.120
be done in some instances, but
it's a lot harder. That's definitely pumped

197
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.759
a lot of power. I saw
one where this had happened in the last

198
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:52.879
fifteen years I believe. Oh where
was it. I don't know. If

199
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:56.639
it's a Montana, I don't know. But somebody was able to hijack like

200
00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:00.879
the emergency system. So it came
on or like you know, like public

201
00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:06.079
service like emergency service announcement, and
they said the zombies. They basically said

202
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:10.160
the dead was coming back to alive. The person caught and got in trouble.

203
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:14.920
But so it's still possible, but
it definitely seems like what it was

204
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:18.880
analog that was kind of like a
free for all. Yeah, I remember

205
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:22.480
when that happened. Actually, well
I don't remember the year obviously, but

206
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:27.000
I remember hearing about it. That
reminds me of another story in Hawaii when

207
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:33.000
it wasn't someone hijacked the emergency broadcasts, but someone made a mistake with the

208
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:38.880
emergency broadcast and they broadcasted a nuke
was on the way. Wow. And

209
00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:44.240
this happened I think maybe six or
seven years ago. It wasn't very long

210
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:48.279
ago now, and so a lot
of people believed they were gonna die.

211
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:53.480
So it caused about like it was
like fifteen fifteen, twenty minutes of just

212
00:17:53.559 --> 00:18:00.240
pure chaos. I had someone said, doctor who got a little more PG.

213
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.440
Maybe I had to blur out the
butt talks. Yeah, like I've

214
00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:11.319
seen the unboured video. Oh at
one point, so you did. I

215
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:15.720
fear it's more appropriate. It's not
really definitely get the point. You get

216
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.160
the point. I mean, it's
it's gross, it's weird. Why the

217
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.880
hell do weird do that? Definitely
several people involved, though there's a person

218
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:26.079
filming it, just twisting the camera
trying to create this effect. You got

219
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:29.880
a person in a French made outfit, so there's not just one person behind

220
00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:34.000
it. Yeah, and the French
maid was definitely a female person. Yes,

221
00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:40.319
weeah. People were really You could
basically come to the conclusion this wasn't

222
00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:45.240
live. It was recorded because the
cut in the video. Yeah, I

223
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.640
guess the creepy part is the scary
part is what was the purpose? Was

224
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:52.119
there a message they were trying to
give or because nobody really got it.

225
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:56.240
People have their opinion on things.
But I think it was a narcissistic sociopath

226
00:18:56.319 --> 00:19:00.039
kind of saying like they were just
like, hey, we could do this.

227
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.960
These people are stupid. We can
just do this ourselves and mess with

228
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:08.839
everybody, and they think they knew
was working to counter it. I think

229
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:12.359
so yeah, I think that they
knew well, they probably guessed that nobody

230
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.200
was gonna be there, and they
probably figured, well, we got enough

231
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:19.519
juice, we can pull this off, and we'll be legends because everybody's gonna

232
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:25.079
be talking about us for the next
thirty years people still are. Do you

233
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:27.000
think the scary part is that this
could be done though? Like what else

234
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:30.240
could happen? Yeah? Because,
like you know, they could have done

235
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:34.799
stuff that you have more malicious if
they wanted to. Yeah, they showed

236
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:41.680
a definite flaw in the system and
all you needed was power and you could

237
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:45.119
do ever you want. You may
never know. It's like Cooper, they're

238
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:48.440
playing guy will never know, you
know. Yeah, so say like that

239
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:52.480
may he may be a future story
right there. Yeah, there you go.

240
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.839
Uh, good one. I enjoyed
that one. I did too.

241
00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:57.440
I was I didn't know that's what
you were gonna go do, and I'm

242
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:00.720
really excited about it. I'm glad
that one. And what's the one with?

243
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:10.400
Yeah, it's awesome. Jeff Townsend
Media sees you good night, and

244
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:14.519
the question is do I stay here? Will you be back? Are you

245
00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.920
gonna come back? Will you be
back? Are you coming back?
