It’s a glitch on the YouTube algorithm as already explained Quoting: Anonymous Coward 82618624 Absolutely 100% not a glitch. The person who did it is a YouTube programmer who has been with YouTube since 2005. If you go to the video and click channels. Then follow the channels linked to the video you'll get to a YouTube channel that is the 40th oldest account on YouTube (aka, an employee). |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 83600284 United States 07/25/2022 07:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The question for me is who thought, "hey I wonder what will happen if I leave out the "h" in "watch" in random Youtube videos" ?? And if it's not something you can find with a search, why was it done? By the way, DO these hidden videos show up if you type their titles into the search bar? I'm not about to go looking to find out. The engineer who made it probably leaked the info himself. That makes sense, thanks |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 83911780 United States 07/25/2022 07:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | From the comments section : Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75679511 Explanation of how this works: It's making use of 2 channels, 1 with a username of 666 and another with a username of watc. When you remove h from the url, it can't parse the query string (the part after the ?) anymore, as it's a query string for the watch url. So instead, it tries to open the profile with the name watc. YouTube channel settings allows you to set a redirect URL for a specific channel, so what this user has done is have the channel of watc redirect to the video uploaded by user 666. That's it really. But nice find regardless it's amateur hogwash you long pork mfers |

I learned the hard way because I was curious. It is definitely evil and a portal of some sort. I felt an evil presence immediately after watching that took days to shake off. It was horrible!! And BTW it is not easy to shake off and I will not go into details of how I did it. Under best circumstances it will chew up a week of your life. Some people may not be perceptive enough to figure out the change. |
