"I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by."
- Douglas Adams
Lol!
Deadlines are jokes passing over our heads ???
He was self admittedly terrible at making deadlines.
Wow! So Jack Sparrow paraphrased Douglas Adams? I had no idea.
*fly by. The whooshing sound they make as they fly by
"Its the start of the year"
Who's gonna tell him it's April
video started uploading in january
It's the start of the financial year
Well he had to take his yearly bath first
OK now that I understand why he said its the start of the year, can any of you guys tell me why the other guys in the comment section commented about a day ago

Notice how his hair gets whiter and whiter throughout the video then returns to black in the end, this dude is the master of making details.
He probably did it practically, which would mean he had to painstakingly in between takes dye his hair whiter and whiter
It's stress
@@matthewhubka6350 There's spray dye, dyed wax, or old fashioned approach of ash applied to hair so it was hopefully not as painstaking as traditional dyeing.
And the rust on his logo
It also must be so hard to paint his human half on every time
7:25 "I'm sorry, I can do better"
Wow, that did hurt me as a fan of this man, his work is always great. It sounded as if his content was not as good as we expect it and that's why he either feels pressure or thinks his work isn't good enough. And he has been in TH-cam for around 13 years now. How does he only have 2M subs? This is definitely top tier quality content, but that phrase makes me feel bad...
I think that's the point. It's not necessarily that he's blaming you or his fans but that he has trouble dealing with perfectionism, which starts with the self and is amplified by criticism. You would be right to feel sad for him that his own expectations and those of others end in making him feel like he's not enough, but this video is about him recognizing that and wanting to make a change for a healthier, more fulfilling life as a creative.
I kind of feel stupid for not knowing what he is, im just a new fan of him.
The reason why he doesn't have a ton more subs is because he doesn't upload consistently. His individual videos are amazing, but because they are so sporadic, the algorithm doesn't recommend them as often as if he was putting out weekly or bi-weekly content. Less recommendations means less views, less views mean lower priority in the algorithm, lower priority means less recommendations, and the cycle continues.
@@Horvath_Gabor -- that's probably part of it, but he also doesn't push for views either. he isn't tagging his videos or advertising or asking for subs and shares, which i respect. i do wish he tagged his vids some though, or just a little SEO.
just because this stuff is pretty great and im a fan. but i respect his choices and it's so impressive to organically grow like this.
Basically this is the definition of quality over quantity

That was kinda highkey
I like those guys, but I'm never super impressed with their work to be honest.
Ah it’s his schtick I’m sure they know that.
A video!!!!!
This was the video saying “I’m done trying to do a video a month” and since, there’s only been a hand full of uploads. I totally understand too. I think a lot of resentment towards other TH-camrs, especially near his subject, steams from how little they have to do to make multiple videos a week and still have a huge following, all while he is giving it his all just trying to compete with his OWN countdown. It’s a tough world out there. I’m glad he’s taking it easy on himself. I really respect this man.
He's a successful and we'll paid vfx artist though, TH-cam is a favor for us at this point. He does deserve better on TH-cam, but he's still killing it irl.
this was the first comment i saw actually adressing the theme of this video. beeing that he wants to do more and better videos, setting unrealistic deadlines for himself, and subsequently working himself to exhaustion (notice his hair getting more grey throughout the video).
@@edge-of-the-internetI also think it's a message to the audience to not think of their own immortality and deadlines too much and just enjoy life. His message has always been enjoy life with a healthy amount of skepticism, not too much. Not too little.
Oh Captain my captain, your work is incredible! I don't understand how people can't be subscribed to this!
Because of the TH-cam algorithm! 😭 I recently came across this channel because of MKBHD and now I'm addicted. He really deserves more subscribers.
I would have subscribed 12 years ago if I knew he existed.

Being subbed to CD is a never ending roller coaster of forgetting about his existence and getting super excited when he uploads.

Alan grew up in the Soviet Union touring with his circus-performer parents, so it's possible he spent some time in Kazakhstan as a kid.
Dam that line where he was like "The mythbusters had 13 years to do it before getting cancelled and I've only been around for..." Hes also been around for 13 years and the content gets better with each upload. Classic

@@AFilmByCosmic The editing is about as terrible as the song, and the song is unlistenable.
"I'm sorry, I can do better!" That line broke my heart. He always does videos with quality that is x10 better than the rest of TH-cam, yet he thinks he's not doing enough.

I know this video is 2 years old, and I didn't even know about the channel then, but this quote is definitely yearbook worthy. Not many people can express the fear of not measuring up to expectations in such an entertaining yet sincere way. I come back to this video whenever I feel smothered by responsibilities and self-doubt for the reassurance. It's a message that is especially poignant in a post pandemic world, where death and the passage of time loom over everyone a bit closer than normal.
This channel's motto should be
*“Videos that are worth the wait”*
*weight

Small detail but I appreciate so much that the time from 1:41 to 9:01 is continuous and accurate, had to be a hard thing to choreograph. Time jumping is always a pet peeve so thank you for that : 3

The last words he said before his "time" ended were, "Ostriches run. They love to run."
I hope my last words are as equally obscure.

Can we just appreciate that this guys intro hasn't changed in 12 years
I love how he always forms a story and manages to build a character arc, all while debunking videos and educating his audience. Truly there is a lot of work put into his videos and it's rare to see a creator that is consistently delivering high quality content.
This is my first time watching a video of his, and yeah, I'm super impressed by how well constructed and composed is.
@@ja8ames I would really recomend watching more, this is a longer video for him, but this is the tone he likes to keep for this channel
I'm honestly not sure how I feel about them. After a few videos it feels kinda repetitive and nonsensical, although I never grew up with the shows he is trying to emulate so I guess I wouldn't understand the appeal.
Yea ja8ames, he has this cool way of debunking online videos, in a mythbusters style way. It's honestly so fun to watch these, because the continuous acting is so well executed.
@@briotous8317 Yeah, I totally get what you're saying. But something interresting that he said at the begining of this video tells a lot about his vision for He says it looks like like it's for children, but it's really for adults. I think that having language and topics for an older audience, yet keeping the kid's show format is what makes his style so unique.
"A lot of these have been covered way back in the day by The Mythbusters, but you know what? They had 13 years to do it before getting cancelled, I've only been around for...Anybody else hear that?"

Stolen th-cam.com/video/lqGRhNJi2nk/w-d-xo.html
Yeah i had to rewatch the vid to catch that.
Let's just take a minute to appreciate the theme of this video, of him continuously battling against deadlines for his videos which was stressing him out which is symbolized by the grey hair on his head and the countdown clock but in the end he learns that the deadlines he sets for himself are to unrealistic.Well done bro another incredible video.
Also related to the fact that he turned 40, and maybe he wanted to do something big by the time he reached that age.
For a lot of people the age of 40 is a midpoint, the middle of your life, and people usually think that by that age you have to be realised and have reached you dreams
Meta-CD i the best CD
And he also seems to have come to terms with his own mortality along the way.
He was like 28 years old on his first video yet he only has 1 million subscribers :( someone should take over so his channel continues to grow.
Alan would be proud
@@Choco3101 i will not hesitate to say that the Captain has one of the best visuals of the entire TH-cam community. That and the charisma that he shows adds a lot, it's a shame that it hasn't been "discovered" like other TH-camrs with less quality
I like how is last words were almost “THEY LIKE TO RUN!!”
‘OSTRICHES RUN
THEY LIKE TO RUN’
this shit has had me laughing for 10 minutes straight
Seriously, the level of dedication and effort putting to this video is higher than most Hollywood movies
i just realized that this video is responding to everyone who complains about how he doesnt upload enough
and also the fact that he' turned 40
Cuz he had a countdown on his website and he promised to upload something when that countdown gets to 0
really?
It's more about setting unrealistic deadlines for yourself

3:12
am i the only one who for some reason felt genuinely bad for him when he said “that is just not fair” and “that was on time what do you want from me”
its realistic though. im suffering from perfectionism and - while the captain may not have intended that message - to me this was the struggle i face regularly
where i intentionally make myself do things in unreasonably difficult ways for no real reason, it often feels like everyone else got an easy ticket and even when i achieve the thing i want, it's simply never enough. i come back to this video often because i love that idea that you needn't face the music even if your work is below what you wanted because there's always next time, there's always more time. :)

@@eyebagz9692 Paetrons have first access so they can post comments earlier
What all those commenters laughing at the “start of the year” line haven’t noticed is that Captain D actually said “it’s the end of the year!” and he had to edit the audio afterward when he ironically missed that deadline to get the video out. You can see and hear it if you pay close attention. The reason for the deadline motif in this video was because he was trying to get the video out “on time” by the end of the year so he had to rush through the old backlog. But he actually missed that deadline so had to change the audio to say “start of the year”. And then the video still didn’t come out until April. Kinda drives home the whole point that the was making about self imposed deadlines.

Just being pedantic, but that’s not ironic. It’s fitting, which is the opposite of ironic.
I was thinking it was going to be about his birthday in the end. He sure mentioned age a lot in this one.
He also says "it's been an interesting year" at the end but voiced over "it's been an interesting decade"
"Ostriches run. They like to run"
And discount ostriches win wars.
That’s too complex, would you mind oversimplifying that?

Yeah, you bet.
it's like watching you favorite series cone to an end. It's sad and all. but you're proud of the people/person behind this.
i have just subscribed and yet it feels like I watched you my entire life.
maybe due to the fact that you have the type of aesthetics from the 90's like spy kids. And these are my childhood. So it's like my childhood big-box-of-a-tv-that-you-need-to-give-a-good-slap-at-the-top-to-work come to life again with the same feels, same aesthetics but taclles advanced topics and debunkings.
Watching this 'episode' gave me the sad nostalgic feeling of the show ending already. And with a comment saying that you post less and less because of probably being tired or getting old, it just breaks my heart. You have an amazing channel seriously. Thank you.
And so, the Captain's last words were "Ostriches run! They like to run!" before he experienced a severe shockwave followed by his erasure from this universe.

@@anuel3780 I think it took him 4 months after filming it to make this high quality cgi video
Well considering his mouth moved to "It's the end of the year" and he dubbed over it, he didn't want to get in costume and refilm everything to say "We're 1/3 through the year and people are dying..." so he said "start" and got a joke out of it. He's good. Really good.
I wish CD got more love for all his hard work. I know he gets recognition, but it's not nearly enough. He should be like, Hollywood famous.
I'm only hoping the Captain gave Alan a pay raise, because this video is just mind-blowing.
So smooth flow, it's pure joy to watch.
I really love how he doesnt show how many more years at the end. No pressure looming over him and the audience.
However, we do know that he only has 257 days left following the years. So final deadline is a December 21st (maybe 22nd depending on the hour count), 2021 at the bare minimum.

It's genuinely amazing how much work goes into these videos. Quick 5 second gags that seem cliche, like when the videos explode and throw you to the ceiling- that must have taken AGES to do so well. Or at the end, when you create the broom and then it starts interacting with other objects in the room. What really makes them is that you never draw attention to them. It's not like the ladder video you looked at here, where the entire point is the visual effects; they're just there to supplement the storytelling and the debunking.
Do you know how he did the broom?

The overarching message of deadlines and relevancy being a self-made construct points to a significant truth in a very elegant way. Captain, you are an amazing writer.
Self impossed deadlines maybe, but career/job impossed ones are not that way. You subject yourself to someone else's time and goals, that's why you have to be able to set realistic deadlines according to your capacities.
I'm all in for the happy message, but that just applies to people that are their own boss like him, TH-camrs, influencers and most free-lancers. And even then free-lancers really know the value of having to juggle time around, personal, corporative and free
@@hdx9820 He mentioned some deadlines aren't changeable. And it is good practice to have self-imposed ones
@@hdx9820 I believe it's in the context of personal growth and goals rather than the corporate context you suggest.
Yeah man. I think the message applies to any other deadlines as well, including work ones. Deadlines for seeing family, to go on a date, or the next shower. Anything that has a time limit, I think.
I completely agree, but the description says that this wasn't written by the captain.
He's still an amazing writer though.

"I'm sorry! I can do better...
You guys took time to make this requests, so I got to work faster!"
I'm glad the Cap'n knows this not to be true, but it still pains that he ever seriously considered this.
Thank you for leading part of my life to a healthier place of mind, Alan.
THE DISILLUSION IS BACK BABY,

I thought that was “the vegan challenge baby™️”
@@TS_Mind_Swept omgggg!! Me too
and he'll be back again in 2 months
@Haze The Space Commie now you're not helping anyone saying that
This video literally show how much effort he puts into these videos, he doesn't just get a request and debunks it. He thinks about the audience and makes quality content to satisfy said audience..
How the hell is it 2021 and I have just come across the Captain !! Looks like I have 15 years of vids to catch up on 👍🏻👍🏻
The happiness and smiles you bring to me is inspiring.... Thank you for the work and effort you put into your content.
"I'm sorry! I can do better!"
Oh god cap, you didn't have to throw it like that..
Reality sucks. Deal with it

I know everyone else will have thought this, but I was legitimately worried that this was a "goodbye" video...
Yes... I thought it too... 😢😖
I think it's just "one decade ends, a new decade starts".
@@ontologicalCleansing It's not, that's the point of the video, it tells about the possibility of the channel ending and how he is worried about that for the entirety of the video, until at the end, he realizes he must not worry as he will continue for many more years and if he stops at some point or not, won't worry him anymore.
@@AlphaSteam2 oh really?
It would be weird for him to give up after a decade just when he is starting to have success with his channel.
i think this might be the best channel ever made on youtube, how did youtube not recommend me this in the past 6 years?
Even the tiny transition at 4:28 is perfect. This must have taken a long time to put together. Bravo!
Have you guys realized that his hair becomes more and more gray the closer he gets to the deadline, but when it hits 0 his hair goes back to black? Neat
Yeah, I thought it was pretty cool
@@srduce I guess it was just lighning .. his hair are normal during the sequence where he debunks things very fast
@@Awelbeckk mightve been an oversight
Back in black
I just did, holy hell the attention to detail
"Presented like a kids show but not intended for kids"
TH-cam: "yo dawg we heard you gotta kids show for youtubekids"
love how he doesn't show the Years when he increased the countdown ... because only god knows how many years are left in his countdown ❤️
your videos are so truly amazing and I loves how all of them have such a great and beautiful underlying message. Thank you Captain! You give me such hope for humans.
Holy crap! How is this content free?! We just got a 10 minute HD video with a plot, jokes, and a moral. And it cost nothing! Thanks so much for making this!
Haha yeah it's refreshing to see content creators that don't need to sell something, that's what I love about CD. No shills, just entertainment. It's great!
I was starting to worry that you weren't coming back. Now I feel happy.
8:23 is funny as hell because this was posted a few days before he turned 40 lmao
I like how this entire video was just him saying "ill take my time to do my stuff so don't rush me ok"
'They make very natural faces in their reactions to VFX shots' got me
For those of you wondering, based on the audio queues, he reset the clock to 10.9 years, probably 11 based on that close of a decimal. The beeps count 100 days, but no special sound for each year. So if it beeps 40 times (approximate # of times it beeped) for each 100 days, that's 4,000 days. Divide by 365 and that's 10.9 years.
Edit: You can see the days at 215 at the end, so it's 10 years, 215 days. Math checks out that he intended the timer to end at January 2031. (maybe January 2030 because it's a nice round number and I got the beep count wrong. Always allow for margins of error.)
So basically the next decade? nice!
I was looking for this comment the first time I watched this video but I never found it
Maybe a hint as to when he quits and his son takes over? (or just quits for good...)
What I want to know is what the bottom of the assistant's shirt said
@bree walden; womanizer god damn
Whew, made it to the end. 46 episodes... wow. Can't wait for more.
Not sure which list you watched, but he made 94 videos before this one, and not one of them is below his insane standard. (and 8 newer videos at the time of posting)
My 100% favorite episode.
Thank you, once again.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate this man's editing skills.. This man makes videos regarding photo shopped works of art when in fact his own videos are, in themselves, their own works of art. Well done dude! 👍
You don't "photoshop" videos.
PolyBlank thanks for the observation Mr Holmes
@@Poly_0000 Yeah, you're right. But you don't have to he a butt about it because you know what I meant. Anyway, have a nice day and stay safe in quarantine 👍
and his acting too ofc
@@samueldygert2840 Sorry I lashed out like that.
I guess it's just a stupid pet peeve of mine.
Hope you're doing good too in these trying times. stay safe.
Even though CD is an interdimentional planeswalker, he's still more grounded and down to earth than most TH-camrs
Urban Meadows MKULTRA/Y2KBUG so what your saying is that me and you have this telepathic schizophrenic power that weve had since past lives as war veterans due to traumatic experiences in warfare and this comment was code to get my attention to your existence and that we are no longer immortal beings like you said and the only way we can be immortal again is if we drown ourselves in vinegar.
@@joeybraun6084 ...apparently, yes.
Sometimes, he even _is_ most youtubers!
My mind was in a bad place today but this video hit me. "Love with your heart, use your head for everything else". I know you say them in most of your videos but in combination of the struggle with getting your work done in a timely fashion. Accepting it's okay you can't do everything. It hit me. I learned today. Thank you for these wise words. 💖
Oh Captain! Our Promethius! What knowledge do you bring to us mortals today!
