yes i saw this at night in like 2018 or 2019 and I screamed at night because my roku 3 f*cking decided to crash and then reboot at night and it woke me up and then my mom said "what the heck is wrong with you"
I thought it was the Pluto TV idle mode screen. You get it whenever you’re inactive on there for 6 hours. When it plays, it says are you still watching and a few other things as it plays calm but unnerving music in the background. Search it up
@@Ur_agv._TallyHall_Fan same but it wasnt me watching my favorite movie on netflix i used to put cartoons on for some reason at night and just sleep with them on, on my roku and that happened
I remember in my aunt's apartment we used to visit, we had a Roku tv with a Wii. My brother and i would sleep on an air mattress in the floor. We would wake up to this before breakfast and play Mario kart real quick. This is what makes it nostalgic for me. I know that nobody asked, but i felt i should mention that.
The R is just looking at letter O and around. The O is just looking around. The K looks like its waiting in the elevator by tapping its foot. The U looks like he's falling asleep and waking himself up.
Imagine at night before bed you start up your Roku and go to bed and relax dreaming until around 3 am this plays and stops you dreaming and scares you and loops for so long and makes you frightened terrifying right
This is calming to me, I remember the first time I heard this, I was very very sick and I heard this play so I turned up my volume a bit to hear it. It kinda helped with my headache I had at the time.
I remember this!! My mom had an older version of Roku and the animation would do that. Now we have the other animation where the letters just jump and spin on the screen. But this brought me back to almoat 10 years ago
Can you make a loopable version of this? That would allow people to turn on the loop video option and prank their friends by using screen share with a computer, phone, or another device that doesn't display any gui that gives the prank away. Trick your friends into thinking their Roku is frozen!
0:00 R: *swings* 0:02 o: I’m home! 0:04 k: let‘s have a break. 0:05 u: aaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH, OOF!!!!! 0:07 R, o, k and u: dearest god, please turn on the TV…
i used to get hallucinations as a child and the worst hallucination that i had was the roku letters jumping at the screen and trying to break out of my tv
The beginning is the absolute worst when you have your TV turned up really loud. (Like Istg the intro is SO loud but the actual loop section is really quiet)
I’ll never forget when I first heard this I walked upstairs to my room on like a Tuesday night where I didn’t want to go to school tomorrow and hearing this just made me happy for some reason
memories of my Roku 3s (yes i have 2), the last time i ever used them was 2017 before switching to Fire TV although i still use one of them for PC builds cuz yk why
Here is the note: R is swinging like in the jungle of a gorilla O is coming like a white tornado or something O went gray and white K is going down with an umbrella like the elevator is going down and U jumped very higher and higher and fell down, down, and down.
Actually these are references to different media. R is referencing Spider-Man by swinging on what appears to be webs. O is teleported, referencing Star Trek and other Sci-Fi media. K floats down using an umbrella, referencing Mary Poppins. U is flung into its spot, leaving a trail behind it, referencing Angry Birds.
After all the letters have landed, we hear some kind of elevator song. I would love that elevator song to come back in the new Roku boot up screen. It’s just the letters jumping in the new one.
When I was 6 this actually freaked me out so this played for 20 minutes and me, on my tablet, with my headphones on,not playing any song on my headphones and listening to this for 20 minutes. Lol I was startin to go insane with this on loop then finally it stopped. XD
References: R has Spiderman webslinger K has the Mary Poppins umbrella U has angry birds launch and score (which explains the feathers) K also taps their foot like Sonic
I’m gunna be honest I’m absolutely terrified by the roku song idek why it just scares me so bad
Same
Same
symphony saffold what is this?!
Reminds me of a "spooky" tune that would play in eg pajama Sam or some other kids adventure game from the 90s
ikr
so we all agree this was probably the scariest thing ever when you wanted to start up roku in the night and this played?
Yes
Yes
No you're just paranoid
when you were sleeping and then at 3 am your roku crashes and plays this
I get scared and jump when this plays on my dad's tv
Had to reboot my roku off a tab and this screen played for 13 minutes and nearly drove me insane, I love it
Happy to be of service :)
I love it😊
I would cry
@@gagehornsby9946 same ^w^
i have no idea why but the part at 0:08 always loops for like 10 minutes on my parents' roku tv and it scares me so god damn much-
I'm gonna be honest, same.
With the volume loud the music sounds so creepy tbh
This made me laugh so much because mine takes like 10 minutes to load too and the music is scary
ikrr
It scares me when it just starts playing
You’ve all got some fucked up bios then mate
im surprised to see everyone agreeing that this was the scariest thing to see at night
yes i saw this at night in like 2018 or 2019 and I screamed at night because my roku 3 f*cking decided to crash and then reboot at night and it woke me up and then my mom said "what the heck is wrong with you"

POV: Its a late summer night in 2014 and you're watching your favorite move on Netflix when your Roku decided to crash and reboot
way too specific bro wtf
@@quprey because it’s real
Wait that actually happened to me when I was six 😳
I was terrified btw
@@Ur_agv._TallyHall_Fan same but it wasnt me watching my favorite movie on netflix i used to put cartoons on for some reason at night and just sleep with them on, on my roku and that happened
0:00 my brain on video games.
0:08 my brain on tests.
0:00 0:08
Young everyone: IM SCARED!!!!
Young me: **Vibes**
The newer ones have the letters jumping up and down with a creepy beeping sound. I like this one better
yes me to that new one makes me hide under my covers
Is this the creepy Roku startup screen
th-cam.com/video/qYUXrQBm9zs/w-d-xo.html
When I Was a baby, I Was Scared of that logo
mine was the roku one, it didnt even do an animation. it just showed the roku logo. thats all.
@@aquawasnthere probably an even older version of bios
This is nostalgia to me, I remember as a kid the letters would just randomly start dancing on the screen. Its bringing memories💀
They really went:
R K
U
O
💀💀💀💀💀
@@U.have.the.balls.2.reply.2me nice ascii model!
R: Spider-Man
O: Star Trek
K: Mary Poppins
U: Angry Birds
omg yes
MOM GAVE ME MY ROKU STICK
I don't get it
It's basically the references of what each letter is doing in the intro @FooFoo ANIMATIONS
I still don't get it
This song has sadly gotten stuck in my head.
lol sorry to hear that.
Mine too
Same
ROKU
if i had the skills i would make a sick remix out of this
I remember in my aunt's apartment we used to visit, we had a Roku tv with a Wii. My brother and i would sleep on an air mattress in the floor. We would wake up to this before breakfast and play Mario kart real quick. This is what makes it nostalgic for me.
I know that nobody asked, but i felt i should mention that.
I just teared up a little....
this really creeps me out considering the first time I heard it was 2:00 AM in the dark.
Omg it scares me too it happened to me when I was in my room at night lol I ran out of the room WHY AM I SO SCARED
SAME i accidently unplugged it NOT being aware and it started and I was like wtf
It would make me happy :)
@@Im_Still_LightSpeedLayneMe Too Because When I Hear This It Makes Me Fall Asleep
Music sounds like something you hear In a elevator
I know
More like an elevator from a horror game/film.
Is lol
Or Maybe the music is like you are getting bored
When Roku is waiting for you to stream on it ☝️
i used to have a roku, and it would rarely crash, but it was the scariest thing ever when it did happen
My Roku Ultra crashed a couple of times last year, so its having something in common.
TBH when I was younger I was so scared of this I thought there was an error and it just happened again so I'm researching it
everytime my roku reboots or crashes i hide in my covers
The R is just looking at letter O and around.
The O is just looking around.
The K looks like its waiting in the elevator by tapping its foot.
The U looks like he's falling asleep and waking himself up.
XD
U is a mood
U is an angry bird
Back then Roku loved Angry Birds so they put the U with the Angry Birds animation when you launched it
R is spiderman
Imagine at night before bed you start up your Roku and go to bed and relax dreaming until around 3 am this plays and stops you dreaming and scares you and loops for so long and makes you frightened terrifying right
I used to be younger when I saw that and I was scared.
Now I’m not.
Great!
This used to scare me when I was like 2-8 years old and I don’t even know why
Same I’m 14 now but yet it still makes me feel uneasy 😂
I am 12 and I never even saw this one, I only saw the one where they jump.
Heavy djent timing on this sick riff
The cheeziest song I've heard in a long time.
Best compliment Ive received all year.
No u
U mean creepiest
A cute animation
This is calming to me, I remember the first time I heard this, I was very very sick and I heard this play so I turned up my volume a bit to hear it. It kinda helped with my headache I had at the time.
I'm so happy people still listen to this masterpiece even tho its kinda creepy.
Hello fellow toaster even though I don’t appear to be a toaster on TH-cam I am a toaster on TikTok
@@MedicTheToaster ok so?
@@jaysdaysreal it’s just cool seeing a protogen outside of TikTok
@@MedicTheToaster what
I remember this!! My mom had an older version of Roku and the animation would do that. Now we have the other animation where the letters just jump and spin on the screen. But this brought me back to almoat 10 years ago
Mine doesn't show that cool little sequence during the first 5 seconds :(
My Roku 3 did but my new Roku Express doesn't.
Me neither :')
My Roku 2 XS doesn't show that either
TheSammy58 it doesn't show on older ones rokus.
Bro mine did that every single time when I turned on my roku for repeat
0:06 letter u flyed on a slingshot like angry birds
0:04 letter u fly in a slingshot
this will forever be engraved into my memory
Where’s my 10 hour version
plez

This shit is nightmare fuel
this is so charming lol
My mind during gym: 0:03

calming to the soul
Damn i still love this.
this is the last thing i will hear before i DIE
R:The confused guy
O: you just bounce
K: Chill Guy
U: The one who falls asleep every routine of the day
Seems Roku loved Angry Birds back then
The letter U from Roku goes flying and flies like Red from Angry birds.
I remember seeing this on tv
Me too why I have a roku tv
i love the references, like the angry birds one on the u
sounds like elevator/lift music
I like onn. Roku TV!
0:03 K: Mary Poppins
U: Angry Birds
0:00 R: *swings* 0:02 o: I’m home! 0:04 k: let‘s have a break. 0:05 u: aaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH, OOF!!!!! 0:07 R, o, k and u: dearest god, please turn on the TV…
Idk why, but this made me anxious as a kid
It's, funny that's a really common reaction. No idea why.
It sort of freaked ME out, too, but for a different reason. It gave me at least 56 nightmares in a row. (World record?)
Can we get a remix out of the k beat it’s straight up fire 🔥🔥
0:04 U: Angry Birds
honestly, this sound is a banger
i used to get hallucinations as a child and the worst hallucination that i had was the roku letters jumping at the screen and trying to break out of my tv
LOL I love watching the Roku dance whenever I’m with my mom sometimes she has me reset the Roku or she does but it’s still funny When it dances
What fun thanks for sharing! Tell Mom thank you :)
Matt Kern LoL you’re welcome it’s funny how it dances
the K is danceing
Lmfao he's not dancing he's just tapping his feet
A.Random .Stranger better than the U that dude is literally falling asleep
Music to my ears
I personally don’t really find this scary, in fact I like these funny anthropomorphic letters
Cool Animation
Roku is dancing
The beginning is the absolute worst when you have your TV turned up really loud. (Like Istg the intro is SO loud but the actual loop section is really quiet)
R - Spider-Man
O - Idk
K - Mary Poppins
U - Angry Birds
The second one is Star Trek
And shut up its star trek
Baraem: That Must Be My 11th Childhood Nightmare.
Someone plz make this a trap remix
yes
Love it
my mom HATED the tapping letters. She only likes the new bouncing letters
Apologies to your mom.
@@GameAudio1 i just apologized to her, she said "the bouncing letters are my favorite."
@@removeadaptedmindadsfromyo9206 lol Gotta keep the moms happy :)
I’ll never forget when I first heard this I walked upstairs to my room on like a Tuesday night where I didn’t want to go to school tomorrow and hearing this just made me happy for some reason
Everytime I hear that song it gives me animal crossing vibes
I love how there’s so many references lol
the sound jazzy
memories of my Roku 3s (yes i have 2), the last time i ever used them was 2017 before switching to Fire TV although i still use one of them for PC builds cuz yk why
That scared me as a baby
This song gives me ptsd
i had a roku back in my days and it was wierd seeing the letters moving and i had a snake game
0:06 firework sound
U Just Fell Down 0:05
I remember using a Roku between 2013 - 2017, brings good memories.
my house still uses roku, they all used it almost my entire life.
woah wait this is cool
went to my friends to find out their newer roku doesn’t do this… i was heartbroken
I had an old Roku, and it only contained the second part of this intro
I don’t know 🤷🏽♀️ what’s Roku tv 📺 but I know it is
Banger of a somg
Reminds me of the cover of Fly Me too the Moon from Neon Genesis Evangelion
This Was The Boot Screen From The Roku 3
1st seen on when you boot up most old/archived Roku devices and TVs.
So im in an elevator at a hotel and I play this from the 1-11 floor
this triggers something in me
OG for me
Here is the note: R is swinging like in the jungle of a gorilla O is coming like a white tornado or something O went gray and white K is going down with an umbrella like the elevator is going down and U jumped very higher and higher and fell down, down, and down.

U is flung into its spot, leaving a trail behind it, referencing Angry Birds.
Can y’all just make a trap remix out of this???
If ya don’t, I will do it myself
I did
After all the letters have landed, we hear some kind of elevator song. I would love that elevator song to come back in the new Roku boot up screen. It’s just the letters jumping in the new one.
R - I'm confused.
O - I'm Vibin
K - I'm Waiting
U - I'm Sleepy
when i was young, it used to scare me, but it's not bad for now
When I was 6 this actually freaked me out so this played for 20 minutes and me, on my tablet, with my headphones on,not playing any song on my headphones and listening to this for 20 minutes. Lol I was startin to go insane with this on loop then finally it stopped. XD
I Love This Bootup
Nothing beats the fail trumpet wah, but this tune is a close runner-up.
This sounds like it came from a horror movie.
No!
Nossa, startup incrível de 2013. Queria ter um roki desatualizado
btw I really want that on my tv so so do you know how to get it?
References: R has Spiderman webslinger
K has the Mary Poppins umbrella
U has angry birds launch and score (which explains the feathers)
K also taps their foot like Sonic
i have a roku device works great
I like how U acted like an Angry Bird
