Sorry if your song didn't make the cut! There was only so much time and I wanted to keep it at an hour. A few good ones had to be cut for copyright flags unfortunately. But anyway, hope you enjoy!
It is here finally the story of how one man seemed to conquer every bloons level on chimps and promised not to stop until he did but tragically and poetically it was the Bloons that silenced him. Then he beat like 5 levels on chimps and said "I think we sent a message" and quit.
There's something so odd about Atrioc, who at the time made 6 figures, playing Bloons after barely sleeping while a collectiong of teenagers and 20-something year olds laugh as he screams in pain

Atrioc's community is truly mind-blowing that if Albert Einstein would be alive today, he'd be shocked as to how they're the exact definition of insanity
28 minutes in and my cheeks hurt from laughing so hard. The community songs were the best idea. Chat. Please for the love of god keep feeding BIG A this content 😂
hey man just wanted to say I'm so glad you commented the artists name. The original song it's based off i really ended up liking it a lot and adding it to my playlist. Thank you for your public service 😄
this is such a classic. I am not ashamed to admit that I watch this almost every time it shows up in my recommended. The community engagement, the jams, the passive gameplay giving lots of good commentary. By far my favorite Atrioc stream, I really hope we get another one
The editing goes SOOOO hard on Bloons content, honestly, some of the most surprisingly entertaining YT content Atrioc has. Huge thanks to the editors for making this happen.
When I saw this video was nearly an hour long I thought to myself "I dunno about this one" and now im typing this comment after finishing the video wishing it was longer. What a job by Eric to tell this story so beautifully, chatters putting their voices together to fuel the run, and the insane grind of a man that wanted some black borders. Im so happy to be a part of this community
Was blown away when the video ended bc it went by so fast and was so entertaining. Wasn't sure about watching it either, glad i did. Great editing by pooh
this is honestly one of my favorite video's I've ever watched, props to EricThePooh for an amazing edit, the whole community for the songs and Big A for absolutely losing his mind for us
The funniest thing about Atrioc’s community is the amount of genuine musical talent that his streams attract despite Atrioc not being a music-related streamer in any sort of way
Eric you did a great job editing this. I was glued to the screen the whole time and didn't realize how much time had passed. I may be sleep deprived for work but I thourghly enjoyed myself thanks to you
I don't think TH-cam viewers will understand the sheer amount of suffering Big A went through on just Workshop alone. He went more than 8 hours straight doing nothing but Workshop and gave up. He did that more than once. It was truly hell for him.
come for the bloons; stay for the fucking bangers. so glad this is finally on youtube. just a legendary stream that resulted in me getting addicted to bloons for longer than i’d like to admit. great editing, you can tell this was made with care. it still amazes me how talented this community is
The editing really helps show the destruction of a man. A good man. The slow descent into his world of illusion, glizzys, and cows is mesmerizing to witness. I happy he's made good efforts to heal.
Amazing editing all the way through. You managed to keep the storyline cohesive through the whole video, set up and reference callbacks like the bloon chipper, and keep the pacing quick with music cuts between story beats. Really fantastic job turning the 3 day event into a digestible and hilarious video, this is gonna be a classic for sure.
Kinda crazy how many of the current Glizz Crib members came out during this stream. Like I still associate Drop Spindle with Ballad of a Backseater and now she's spearheading the ACLU
I have not laughed this hard in such a long time!! This may be the best thing I've ever seen! Made props to the editor, you did a monster job on this. And how the hell did Big A end up with such a musically talented chat? Even the bad songs were good for a laugh and there were several songs I will seriously listen to on a regular basis! You guys all rock!
I wasn't there for most of the popathon but being in chat when the stream died and finding out the cause was a fucking balloon had me dying of laughter for probably for at least three days afterward
The editing skill on display here is actually insane. Big probs to ericthepooh because this is just AMAZING! And song of a quince is also such an incredible song… this guy can do anything
This community has some of the most bafflingly talented musicians that I've ever seen in any creators community, and we've used it to make a dozen monkey ball sea shanties, and over 100 Bloons TD6 songs. What a time to be alive.
Okay I don't know where to start, but I like watching Atrioc vids as much as the next person, but the editors really popped off here with the editing. From making sure the storyline kept true over the course of the multiple days, to making sure that songs were listed and to all of the graphics, etc... Truly loved each moment. Thank you!
This was one of the first Atrioc vids I ever watched and after almost a year of getting up to speed and rewatching this at 3 am it truly hits different.
That Subathon was nuts! I always love seeing your great community make such great songs... But do you know what would be an even better game to Subathon...? Demolish & Build 3 Excavator Playground! You should stream that game soon!
you are even dumber than he is. I cant believe this still makes me mad 6 months since i've ever touched bloons. the UPGRADE gives you 4x production regardless of what the TARGETTING is set to. setting to "smart" does nothing and is literally the same as "close" on a single track.
@@atrioc to be fair there have been so many weird glitches and quirks in this game over the years it's been out so its not too far off to think there's some glitch
this video is FIRE and really sums up the vibes. Such a crazy hectic couple of days and the songs made me alternately cringe, laugh and cry. I'm just grateful to be in this community and the popathon sums up why.
so sad the video ended, hope there will be a part 2. i lost it when you found out balloons caused the power outage. thank you for all the laughs, and great songs.
This was the best video Brandon "Atrioc Glizzy Hands, Sarah, the Glizzy Guzzler" Ewing has ever made. It was incredibly funny. After watching it the whole way through, I watched it again with my girlfriend, who is completely detached from streaming and TH-cam culture, and after watching it the whole way through she mentioned how funny it was. Everyone who made songs killed it and I am now a firm believer that the Iblooninati is out to get Atrioc (I wasn't a believer but the last straw was the bloons going sentient in a successful attempt to cut off Atriocs power on the winning run). Seriously just a great vid.
Can we just take a second to appreciate the editors cause you can tell that they have been working on this since the popathon and the editing is damn good
Sorry if your song didn't make the cut! There was only so much time and I wanted to keep it at an hour. A few good ones had to be cut for copyright flags unfortunately. But anyway, hope you enjoy!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - this edit is unreal & you’re talented as hell mr. pooh
You did amazing! Thank you!
Thanks for the amazing edit
This was absolutely amazing.
amazing work on this vid

and low we saidith onto him "good enough"
There's something so odd about Atrioc, who at the time made 6 figures, playing Bloons after barely sleeping while a collectiong of teenagers and 20-something year olds laugh as he screams in pain
I think you meant sang song all day long
yes
I'm really sorry A man, the rope to my balloon just snapped for no reason and exploded on the power cable, my deepest condolences :(

What’s the song at 44:08?

Thanks for doing that man, this stream really helped alot of people out from stressful news.
apple
nice in the spirt of melee consider making a video about how Nintendo is killing the scene right now
Big A, Being a big W with Glizzy hands almost as big as his glizzy heart
Can't think of a better cause. Wishing you the best Chillin
Atrioc's community is truly mind-blowing that if Albert Einstein would be alive today, he'd be shocked as to how they're the exact definition of insanity

I know big A has said this before, but its crazy how many musically talented people have ended up in his streams. Its so good😂
@@Nathan-my7zs The ones without the talent that are willing to submit a song anyway are the real heroes.
@@FluffyFluffles absolutely, even the ones that aren’t conventionally talented have their own charm to them
Really never thought I'd hear a Bloons parody of AJJ in a million years.
That one and I'm pretty sure there was a Days n Daze one I remember hearing during the stream were super surprising.
Mog? cool to see you here
@@JayJonahJaymeson Whoa, really? I gotta find it
hey man just wanted to say I'm so glad you commented the artists name. The original song it's based off i really ended up liking it a lot and adding it to my playlist. Thank you for your public service 😄

The IRL bloons cutting Big A’s power before round 98 is still the fucking craziest thing I’ve seen, bro
Here a year later and him laughing his ass off as he goes insane is still the funniest thing I’ve witnessed on Twitch
This is a classic that the poor yt frogs missed out on, glad it's here now
I watched all the vods I didn’t even realize it never made it to the main channel
Now I get to watch it and still see my loved ones!
I’m not poor. You’re poor. I’m rich. Fuck twitch frogs. TH-cam frogs don’t try to gatekeeper streamers
@@TheFreeBro what?
When was this?
this is honestly one of my favorite video's I've ever watched, props to EricThePooh for an amazing edit, the whole community for the songs and Big A for absolutely losing his mind for us
The funniest thing about Atrioc’s community is the amount of genuine musical talent that his streams attract despite Atrioc not being a music-related streamer in any sort of way
53:33's descent into maniacal laughter, immediately followed by 53:46's simulation moment™ might be the hardest I've laughed at a YT video in a while
This has become my comfort video, I watch this when I’m having a bad day and it never fails to make me smile. Thanks for the content Big A
That bloon power outtage is probably the hardest Ive ever laughed on an Atrioc video
After over a year, it's still one of the funniest things I've ever watched on the internet
Atrioc is almost definitely unconscious at the time this video was posted. This was right after his MASSIVE Hearthstone grind to Legend
Well as you were commenting he was going slime on someone being dumb about spikes
Eric you did a great job editing this. I was glued to the screen the whole time and didn't realize how much time had passed. I may be sleep deprived for work but I thourghly enjoyed myself thanks to you
"Love it, beat it, won't back seat it... didn't ask for help, cause you just don't need it" is actually such a banger lmaoo
thanks!!!
@@yasonethebone Loved your song. Keep up the good work :D
I don't think TH-cam viewers will understand the sheer amount of suffering Big A went through on just Workshop alone. He went more than 8 hours straight doing nothing but Workshop and gave up. He did that more than once. It was truly hell for him.
watching this after the union album is crazy. The talent was here all along and we just didn't know what it'd evolve into. Genuinely beautiful
I was thinking the same thing so good
Literally my favorite Atrioc video, I have watched this entire video least 10 times, hope he does another one
I listen to this video way too often
53:44 this is the type of thing that makes you believe that there is a God and he has a sense of humor.
20 secs in...this is going to be an emotional rollercoaster
come for the bloons; stay for the fucking bangers.

So happy to be welcoming in 3 months time, all the new Popathon babies being blessed into this world. This was the weekend that changed everything.
Can't believe that so many infamous members of the ACLU made their first musical appearance on this stream
Yeah, like Dropspindle and Ask debut here, the Shaq and Kobe of music.
Kinda crazy how many of the current Glizz Crib members came out during this stream. Like I still associate Drop Spindle with Ballad of a Backseater and now she's spearheading the ACLU
27:10 actual banger. holy shit
ballad of a backstreamer wins my award for best song of the popathon
Drop Spindle is deadass so fucking talented man😭
Ayyy thanks y’all! Glad you enjoyed my silly monkey song 🤘
@@dropspindle it was indeed a bit goofy, some might say it is perhaps a teensy bit comical even🐒
I love the love it leave it too much
idk if it's the same guy who made it but the song is highly inspired of another song : th-cam.com/video/zSjlV7bxZak/w-d-xo.html
This is now my fourth full rewatch, I don't know why... He doesn't even beat workshop chimps. Terrible guide
Wow huge props to the editor(s) working on this with the overlays / songtexts! Explains why it tooks months lol.
I love how the description’s link to the full-vod just says “get a hobby”
I have not laughed this hard in such a long time!! This may be the best thing I've ever seen! Made props to the editor, you did a monster job on this. And how the hell did Big A end up with such a musically talented chat? Even the bad songs were good for a laugh and there were several songs I will seriously listen to on a regular basis! You guys all rock!

3:37 weird how he was completely wrong yet Big A yelled at him
The editing skill on display here is actually insane. Big probs to ericthepooh because this is just AMAZING!
And song of a quince is also such an incredible song… this guy can do anything
25:11 BIG A’s “the emotion 😮😂“ is one of my favorite stream moments ever
Big A was actually wrong at 3:35. I wish he can take accountability and apologise to that chatter.
He was right though. It's the smart spikes upgrade that does that, not changing the targeting to smart.
this is such an incredible video. such a fun rewatch
quincy is so effortlessly cool
This community has some of the most bafflingly talented musicians that I've ever seen in any creators community, and we've used it to make a dozen monkey ball sea shanties, and over 100 Bloons TD6 songs. What a time to be alive.
I come back to this video atleast 2 times a year just to listen to Ballard of a backseater
The Legend of the Popathon lives on
It’s been over a year but I’d like to say, “IM GOING TO BECOME THE JOKER” has worked its way into my daily sayings. Thanks Big A keep up the good work
This is the best video I have seen in a while. Editing, Content, Songs, Community. Its all just magical. Thank you.
I no joke watch this vid every month, so entertaining and a vibe everytime
It’s just perfection. The bloons malding, great editing, insane irl coincidences, and of course banger after banger
finally 1 million views on the craziest glizziest bloons content the world has ever seen
The editing on this video is spectacular for such a huge amount of time.
This is a video I come back to all the time. It's just so good.
shout out to the editors for putting the chat messages he reads on screen, i love getting another chance to bask in the glory at 49:41
Okay I don't know where to start, but I like watching Atrioc vids as much as the next person, but the editors really popped off here with the editing. From making sure the storyline kept true over the course of the multiple days, to making sure that songs were listed and to all of the graphics, etc... Truly loved each moment. Thank you!
When the Ballad of a Backseater started playing, I nearly cried
Literally bloon sabotage is the most insane thing of all time
I've been recently going through the popathon VODs so this was really pleasant to see! can't wait for popathon 2 🥵
This was one of the first Atrioc vids I ever watched and after almost a year of getting up to speed and rewatching this at 3 am it truly hits different.
The editors had so much fucking fun on this
ive been waiting for this!! Going to be so worth the wait
I can't imagine how painful it must've of been to scrub through so many hours of bloons for the editors
Dude the irl bloon sabotage. You give a thousand writers a chance and they couldn't write that twist. Literally unbelievable.
20:15 I actually lost it when the pursuit of happiness opening came on
That Subathon was nuts! I always love seeing your great community make such great songs... But do you know what would be an even better game to Subathon...? Demolish & Build 3 Excavator Playground! You should stream that game soon!
This is actually a masterpiece, shoutout to the editors for putting it together and Atrioc for suffering through it o7
33:18 is a quote from the movie Mystery Men. First time I've ever heard someone quote that movie. Its so good.
Ballad of a backseater was the point of the popathon that really cemented to me that this would be one of the all time greatest streams
I waited for this edit to come, and I finally got it. Editor’s work here is enormous!
Popathon 2 hype!
The editing on this is INSANE
Finally, I can tell from the chapters alone that this is going to be one of the best Big A vids, so glad I got to catch a lot of this stream live
3:35 is even funnier because im pretty sure the chatter is actually right about the smart spikes
you are even dumber than he is. I cant believe this still makes me mad 6 months since i've ever touched bloons.
the UPGRADE gives you 4x production regardless of what the TARGETTING is set to. setting to "smart" does nothing and is literally the same as "close" on a single track.

Popathon is a top Atrioc arc, crossing my fingers for a sequel!
so sad the video ended, hope there will be a part 2. i lost it when you found out balloons caused the power outage. thank you for all the laughs, and great songs.
You know what he did was crazy when he drops and hour long video out of no where
Thanks for the link to the full VOD, Eric. Changed my life. I now have a Grade 8 in music theory.
53:46 this is my favourite ever atrioc moment lmfao
The editing on this is immaculate! Great job, and thankf for the captions when there are multiple speakers
Thank you for reminding me of the masterpiece that is “Ballad of a Backseater”
that intro was SO good, i love this video so much. ericthepooh you did such a good job on the edit !!!! absolutely insane
Can I just say that the guy at 3:33 is banned for nothing since smart spikes actually have boosted production at the start of the round
The upgrade smart spikes boosts production, but not the targeting mode of smart.
I am so happy the footage of the outage survived. you could not write it better that on wave 98 real life mylar balloons stopped him
The vodception tactics Big A pulled during the popathon were pog 11/10
21:35 wow what banger whoever made that is probably very handsome and smart
EricThePooh is just such an effortlessly cool editor
this is the only hour long video I have to watch immediately after it's posted. amazing songs all round, adding them to my playlists 👍
Was only there for bits and pieces but it's truly a classic I need to relive, especially when the bloons cut the power
This was the best video Brandon "Atrioc Glizzy Hands, Sarah, the Glizzy Guzzler" Ewing has ever made. It was incredibly funny.

i have no idea what’s happening i’m just here for the music
Ballad of the Backseaters and Love it, Beat it are some of my favourites among many. So many great songs.
I can’t believe I watched a whole hour video about Bloons
Props to big A, the editor, and the talented viewers for an awesome video
Absolutely fantastic video, I was there for most of this but experiencing it again with great editing was amazing.
I made it 3:48 !
Glad my rot tonight allowed me to get to this and fly me to infernal! Gosh my a cappela no moabs would've slapped too though
This is like my 18th time watching this whole video, and I already know it’s gonna happen again
I watch this video like 4 times a week
I was about to make the same comment, thanks for saving me the trouble
I watch this like it’s a blockbuster movie
Can we just take a second to appreciate the editors cause you can tell that they have been working on this since the popathon and the editing is damn good
36:07 I initially thought this was going to be a Slim Shady parody until he actually left the 'fin building.
MONKEY TIME MORE LIKE SLIMETRIOC, YESSS ATRIOCCCCCC!
as a TH-cam frog this was so cool to watch as I heard whispers of the pupation and how the legendary glizz lord prevailed from his past TH-cam vids
