I think there was a recent one in the state of texas with a false alarm missle alarm. I remember it being a meme like a few months ago
You called Chills “top15s”
Fun Fact: Jim Carey was in Hawaii during the missile threat. So he went to a beach and watched as the waves went by before the missiles hit. Of course, there were no missiles. So Jim is still alive.
He had to survive so you could play eggman in the sonic movies
He was ready to die like a main character
Rockets fly high overhead while emotional music starts playing
Imagine panicking in Hawaii; you’re driving around and just see Jim fucking Carey sitting at the beach.

I had an amber alert, it only said “do not talk to the man.” And I stood in my room for ten minutes thinking this is some Mandela catalogue crap, finally I went to my dad and told him and as soon I said that another came and said false alarm.

I originally heard that the Hawaii one was a complete accident, but finding out that it actually happened because one guy accidentally said “this is not a drill” during a drill and another guy believed him was wild
I was told that it was because they forgot the password to something.
“Exercise, exercise, exercise” _Sleep_
“This is not a drill” Real shit, XD
I always thought it was because someone was cleaning an alert board (like those control panels full of buttons and stuff) and accidentally pressed one of the buttons that sent out the alert.
Man, guess I really had no idea
His source was “trust me bro”
they probably don't have boards full of buttons otherwise hackings of the eas system wouldn't be possible, they probably use a secret website to log in to send out alerts@@twelved4983

I don't really understand why people find EAS creepy. I mean, it has to be because otherwise people wouldn't pay attention, but at least it is informative. My country doesn't really have any system like EAS. If there is something, they just blast sirens for several minutes or kick the shit out of church bells like it is 1223 and Mongols are invading. There is no message attached. If you don't know how to understand different siren signals, you know only that something is going on and church bells are situative.
Finally. Someone covering the "would you, could you, on a train?" alert and not insisting the conspiracy theory is real.
Then an NJT train crashed into a building, but it's just a coincidence, confirmed.
Series of coincidence
Because conspiracies never happen in real life 🙃
Why did that make me laugh
the dr suess is coming
My mom was on a flight to Hawaii and descending when the ballistic missile alert came through. It caused so much panic on the flight as the pilots insisted on landing because there was nowhere else to land and staying in the air would do no good and burn the fuel they had left. She didn't tell my dad or me or my brother until it was deemed a false alarm, not wanting us to worry. When they got out of the airport she said there was absolutely NOBODY on the streets or in common tourist area until the next day where there were many people selling custom t-shirts poking fun at the whole incident. I have two in my closet, one with a picture of Kim Jong Un with bold text saying "Sorry I press wrong button". We also still have a letter sent to all travelers from David Ige, the governor at the time, apologizing for the incident.
LMAOO “sorry, I press the wrong button” 😭😭
Silly Kim, pressed the wrong button 😂
@@Rhettroizms Damn, i want one now. Such a dope thing to have.
Those sound like really neat souvenirs!
A group of us were on our way to Hawaii that day and an Italian colleague, who had the loosest grasp of English on a good day, was convinced Hawaii had been hit by a missile and was now a Mad Max hellscape nuclear wasteland
One time i got an amber alert saying "GOTHAM CITY MO PURPLE/GREEN 1978 DODGE 3700 GT MO UKIDME" (that is car that joker drives in the 1989 batman movie), like 10 minutes afterwards there was a message saying that it was an test that sent out accidentally
ME TOO! i have photos of it as well cuz i screenshot every alert i get on my phone
@@nimk Damn, it is fun in US. There is only tests and bad weather warnings over here.
@@nimk link to photos?
I GOT THAT TOO!
As an Egyptian our last alert was in 2011 😢
I got a funny amber alert on August 6, 2022, sometime 2:00-59 P.M.
“Do not approach the male. Please call nine one one.”
And then around 10 minutes later I got this:
“Please disregard the previous message. Accident”
That would be horrifying, and I guess I’m not sleeping tonight now that my mind took in this info
Someone else commented something similar, who the fuck are these men and why are they so hazardous
without context that seems freaky as hell
Mr thermonuclear said the same thing happened to him lol. Funny hearing two sides to a story
Imagine someone getting that message right as they meet up with their new Tinder date.
the radio station replaying the EAS alert broadcast in full is actually hilarious, because its the tones of the EAS alert that automatically force the radio broadcast equipment into relaying the message, repeat until finished.
someone, SOMEONE dun fucked up on that one.
Yeah someone must have went and doubled the message
yep
double it and give it to the next one
Also, I remember the zombie one, since I lived in Indiana at that time, I tuned into that radio channel they mentioned and for all that i remembered it was some calm elevator music playing
@@aidenstanley7305 millionfold it and give it to everyone
I have lived in Hawaii since 2012. Nothing could have prepared me for that fateful morning in 2018. Though short lived, for 38 minutes we though we were gonna die. Once they announced it was a false alarm, my dad went "Well, someone's getting fired."
I wonder if it was the person who misheard or the person who said "This is not a drill" during a drill.
@@AverageConsumer-uj8smif i remember correctly, the person in charge of sending out the alerts was supposed to send out a drill, but accidentally sent out the message they were supposed to use if sh*t hit the fan. so everybody received the false alert and thought they were screwed.

LOL
Fun fact: exactly ONE day before the 2 year anniversarry of the Hawaii Missile alert, AlertReady (Canada's equivalent system) sent out a false alert stating that a "nuclear accident" had occurred at the nuclear power plant in Pickering, Ontario.
"Guess we're gonna die, eh?"
Really?? I don’t remember that, but hey I’ve been in Alberta my entire life so we were probably too far away to get that one
Oh shit I remember, my mom and I were legit terrified because this wasn't regular and some general fumes were coming from that direction. (Different building issue) made us genuinely terrified
I remember that! I was so scared and was convinced a second Chernobyl was going to happen
History doesn't repeat itself
But it does rhyme.

If I recall correctly, Vinny Vinesauce was actually streaming when the hack mentioning him took place and couldn’t believe what was happening. After he learned it wasn’t a jape he had to state that he had no idea and wasn’t responsible.
EXERCISE,EXERCISE,EXERCISE can you put the link? i wanna see vinny know what the hell is a eas and freak out ^_^
EXERCISE,EXERCISE,EXERCISE

Please send me a link I wanna see it

I've always been scared of the EAS tone. Getting a test message while watching TV late at night was the worst thing. I hear it and immediately I fear the worst. Also, I had completely forgotten about the Vinesauce one lol. I watch Vinny all the time and it was so funny to think a hacker would do that.
listen to the canadian eas
The EAS tone is particularly designed and intended to catch your attention, by making you feel uncomfortable.
The EAS tone goes back a while, starting along with the Cold War (I forgot the name, but I believe it MIGHT be Comrade or something close), then with the Civil Defense alert along with the air raid sirens we currently know as tornado sirens and the white and red card alerts (white is like a watch, and red is like a warning. But for bombs), and then we came to the EBS, short for Emergency Broadcast System, which brought along the weather warnings we know and love, and after that we finally came to the EAS, or Emergency Alert System, which is basically an upgraded version of the EBS. After that, we started with the alerts we receive on our phones, which range from blue alerts to the ballistic missle threats. Hope you enjoyed my bad history lesson!
@@Idkmate_ I did, thank you! Learned something new today!
@@Idkmate_ The first system for public notification of a nuke bombing was Conelrad. The broadcasts were on 640 and 1240 kilocycles. The system was so hard on radio station transmitters that the EBS was cooked up about ten years later.
Man, Vinny sure gets referenced in the weirdest places. First that EAS hack in 2020, and then as incidental
background noise in a cop show in a whole other state. The Vinesauce community truly reaches far (and wide)

I live in Central Oahu, Hawaii. I would have slept right through the Hawaii warning, but my dog woke me up so I could let him do his business in the backyard. As he hiked his leg to go, my phone got the alert.
How was it like?
@@theweirdo7571 The missiles killed him, but his dog did survive to tell the tale

@@noah-tl1gv the dog made this comment 🤣
The missile didn't kill him it was a false alarm.
No matter what, those emergency alerts all scare the shit out of me, whether it's on TV or on my phone
Same, lol. Even just hearing the sound of the tones can send me into a panic.
And don't forgot traumatizing as shi
As a kid ye definitely 💀💀
The traumatizing of all time in my opinion was the USA EAS alarm, that's just heckin creepy 💀
I got one on my computer in the middle of the night, I woke up to it sweating, checked my phone. As it turns out, it was an amber alert.
@@LoginJ I feel super bad ;-
@@LoginJi also got one during the middle of the night, but for some stupidly absurd reason, it was a test.
a bit more info about the lady gaga one: the off the air channel just so happened to be testing the broadcasting equipment at the time, but they couldnt play the actual EAS tone to comply with laws, so they played some songs, which at the time of the alert they where playing lady gagas paparazi. Turns out that they didnt actually know about the alert, and where still playing the music at the time, and the alert tone didnt play because the alarm system was simply muted on the audio interface. Additionally, depending on what channel you where on, you may of had that eas screen for long enough that another song began playing, however very few people seen this screen.
Actually, the reason the song was playing was because the eas channel used to be on one of the directv music channels.
Living in hawaii during the ballistic missle warning was a moment in my life
What did everyone do?
@@mediocre_danefreak out from what i hear from my dad. everyone was running to shelter, trying to get through traffic, go to airports but they were so crowded that im pretty sure all flights were canceled cause where else can you hide on this tiny island ? theres no public bunkers and such. its was mayhem.
@@cedrus.forest_. plus obviously a plane cant load up with fuel, cargo, and passengers, taxi to the runway and take off in the timespan of a missile (which is around 20 minutes i think)
@cedar.got.pawzz_. those people that ran to the airport definitely have no Nuclear survival skills thinking they can just run thru security and hop on a plane to take off. Obviously the better course of action would've been the shelters or some place down low or reinforced location
@@keywellcoinsmafiametals8726lmao facts, I bet those were the same people that started panicking over toilet paper in 2020. 😂
It would be interesting if all of these events split off into their own universes. Kind of like the book "I Survived," but only for alternate reality situations. Like, what if the undead did rise? What if Hawaii was nuked? What if there was a hazardous waste situation for the entirety of the United States? I guess we'll never know.
What if Lady Gaga's biggest fan followed her until she loved them, papa, paparazzi?
What if we could we? Would we? What if they did do it on a train?

same
And it can be yours with 5 easy payments of $11.99!
I've used a similar one (it was for a single pancake not 4) and they work pretty nicely with the caveat that the top pan isn't heated very much so when you flip it you have to wait for the pan to heat up as well.
You don't need a spatula tho which is nice if you want to minimize dishes.
My favorite part about the Hawaii missile thing is how the warning messages were set off by clicking some hyperlink on a webpage that looks like it's from 2005.
Very sophisticated.
That was the CAP software that they were using. They had created a template to reduce data entry errors in an emergency. But the problem was that the software didn’t really have a “are you sure you want to send this” type of confirmation.
I remember one time the EAS went off the air and everyone got to stare at a Fedora Linux Login screen for like an hour. I don't remember where it happened though, it was a long time ago
I tried looking for any videos of it, but I can't find any. Do you know of any videos of this event?
super interesting that the OS that the eas machine uses is fedora. some of them use windows xp, or windows 10. though quite rare. you can know if they use the microsoft sam voice or the windows 10 tts voice when its airing an alert.

What’s that?
@@davidmaggiesmith9758 EAS stands for Emergency Alert System (which is what theyre called in america). Theyre basically just loud alerts played on tvs and phones as a way to warn people of approaching danger, usually weather. Youve definitely heard those loud screeching tones warning you of a weather warning before while trying to watch TV. The tones and names of these alert system change with what country youre living in though.
@@davidmaggiesmith9758 Its a song by a band named Anthrax. My dad is into a lot of heavy metal bands, so I grew up listening to some hardcore shit lmao
Would I? Yeah.
Could I? Yeah.
On a Train? What the hell, no way. You're asking too much.
GUYS remember October 24 when the eas system tested and we all were so excited to hear all the phone just screaming inside the lockers, echoing through the building, but in reality, most people had it turned off and it wasn’t loud anyway? Yeah, I was in orchestra class and the teacher was like “oh wait everyone stop warming up, it’s time…” dead silence. That was fun…
i was sick that day so i didn't get to hear it at school 😔
We had it but my school didn't have lockers so we just had it in our hands and pockets. Mine didn't go off until two hours later when I turned off airplane mode. Good to know
@@AverageConsumer-uj8sm your school lets you have phones in class??!?!?! Lucky…
I was trying to prepare myself for it because i knew if i didn't i was gonna freak the hell out but then it came on 2 minutes early and i freaked the hell out anyways 🥲
i thought it was october 4?
During the Hawaii false alarm incident, young Hawaiians were the most likely to do what they were supposed to do in that situation, and older Hawaiians were the most likely to panic and send goodbye messages, at least according to testimonials left on Wikipedia.
8:31 Mr. Gerde really Sprunk'd the EAS.
this is what happens if you press the EAS button so much that the game crashes
Sprunk or ecola?!
Just in case you don't know, you can play SAME headers all you want on youtube, you just cant play them over airwaves like for example, radio, tv, mainly anything that can be picked up by an antenna.
really?
@@RadeonVega64 Yeah, i would had been arrested years ago if that wasn't that case lol.
@@So1 oh ok lol
@@RadeonVega64 yes. Otherwise the entire eas scenario genre wouldn't exist on youtube (there's actually good creators, check out @flouridetapwater or @nullDorito for example (i recommend "dark autumn")

I can’t believe it, my boi nimk is back and he made a video about EAS fails. It’s refreshing to see an EAS video that’s more lighthearted and not focusing on being scary. I think my favorite EAS fail in the video was Mr. gerde’s wave broadband hijacking. The fact that “Burger King Foot Lettuce” played on TV is so funny to me
Fun Fact: Around 2019 the chilean government accidentally sent a tsunami warning to every phone in the country when it was just happening in the antartic territorry, i was on vacation at the beach at the time and got scared because i thought i was real. It caused havoc in major coastal cities.
heyo fellow chilean here, idk if that's the same incident since my memory is shit, if it isn't then i'm sorry. but after an earthquake overseas a similar alert was sent out and was called a false alarm, but half an hour or so a pretty big earthquake hit
got scared shitless and i was in santiago lmao
After the Hawaii false alarm I saw a funny GIF where there was a web page with two links: The first one to send a real alarm, the second one to send a test. As the mouse hovers over the "test" button, an advertisement loads into the top of the page, causing the links to move down and the mouse to actually click on the real alarm. I thought that was pretty funny.
The Hawaii one is horrifying, I can't imagine how panicked everyone was.
4:26 the pancake ad playing in thr background like nothings happening 😂
Hey everybody’s dying but WHO WANTS PAAANCAAAAKES!
there’s zombies rising from the graves. BUT HAVE SOME PANCAKES!!!!!!!!!
The USA EAS tone is illegal to use in the States, but not in other parts of the world, where they have different triggers for automated emergency broadcast. Meaning someone may carelessly flip on an EAS if the circumstances just hit right.
thank you for taking these somewhat lightly and not being scary, this is so much more watchable than other people just blasting the alarms scaring the shit out of us 💛💛
A zombie alert being sent in New Mexico would make sense if the person who sent it out was a half-life fan lmao 🤣
10:55 far cry 5 sounding ahh speech
That last one is genuinely terrifying
I get it is "typical christian radio broadcast" but being out of context like that is what gets me, i wouldnt put it past a hijacker to splice something like that in for that exact reason
I was the Chief Engineer for KWVE at the time. The way the EAS worked there was that the board operator would press a few buttons on the Emergency Alert System encoder/decoder box that it needed to send a Monthly Test. An EAS Monthly Test is designed to simulate a real alert, but instead of alert-y type wording and text, it says that it’s a “Required Monthly Test.” The EAS box would signal the station’s audio routing system that it needed to go on the air, the audio router would switch the audio from the board and studio feed to the EAS box. The EAS box would generate and playout the SAME header tones and the attention tone, and tell the audio router that it could have the audio back. In this situation, the release of the audio was so that the board operator could play the recorded “This is a test of the Emergency Alert System…” The board operator played that audio, and when the audio was done, the operator was supposed to push the button that again put the EAS box back on the air and play the EOM tones. They forgot and went right back into the audio of the sermon that was on the air. Remember I said that the Monthly Test simulates a real alert. So every radio, TV, and cable system in Orange County was carrying that Monthly Test. The EAS system is designed for a two minute audio message, and if the audio message exceeds that, boxes will automatically send EOM tones and cut off the message. It’s to prevent an accidental takeover by another station. (The only EAS message that doesn’t have a timeout is the Emergency Action Notification or EAN).
A lovely back and forth with the FCC ensued and things settled down.
But boy was that a fun couple of months…
greylock moment
I’ve seen broadcasts of the EAS a few times (only at night, and it would only be the audio) but have never seen the classic black screen with white text. And I'll never get to experience an TV EAS broadcast ever again because my parents switched to Fire Stick or Roku.
tbh i think roku has a antenna built into their tvs so maybe if u find it you can watch live tv and see the original black background and white pixelated text or white background and black pixelated text
idk i mean emergency alerts are just getting more uncommon, the last emergency alert/amber alert i got was back in july when there was a tornado (which was real and there was 10 of them that month)
I get my weather alerts from my weather app. If it's REALLY bad my eight weather warning apps will yell at me over email, text, push notification, etc
One of the things that gets pushed to generic weather app but isn't a big deal according to the other ones is the Lake Wind Advisory that feels like it happens almost every day.
Damn same 😢
i remember hawaii's ballistic missile alert. it was early in the morning when i got the message on my phone. my group chats were blowing up with confused and panicked messages. i recall walking up to my mom and telling her about it-she shrugged it off not because she didn't care, but because there was really nothing we could do. we had no bomb shelters to run to, just wooden houses where i lived. if it were real, we probably wouldn't have had the time to make a run for it anyways.
thank god it wasn't real. we laughed it off after.
tbf tho, the aftermath was pretty bad. i still feel bad for the guy who pushed the button. he was just doing what he was told, yet all the blame got shoved on to him for a higher up's mistake
So part of that is human nature. They say "exercise, exercise, exercise," at the beginning of those calls, but most humans that don't have hypersensitive hearing and brains don't hear the first thing when they pick up the phone. So for example, when someone picks up the phone at a telecom company, their greeting might be, "Thank you for calling Comcast, my name is John, may I have the name on the account?" Most people just hear gibberish. Dude heard gibberish, not "exercise, exercise, exercise," and thought it was real.
Btw thanks for not playing the actual headings-most people do play the headings while I don’t have headphones, so thank you!

i suffer from sleep apnea, but even long before i got diagnosed i knew that i fall asleep with excessive ease. i once fell asleep though only for a few seconds while standing and drying my hair with a heavy and noisy blow-dryer in my hand. its SCARY how easy it is to fall asleep in situations that youd never think its even possible!
ive always been afraid of driving, what with the whole "moving a huge metal machine on my own, but if im not careful about everything all the time i could end lives, and just because im such an airhead" thing, but also because im absolutely terrified of falling asleep at the wheel. going autopilot is a dangerous thing... to this day i still dont have my license.
i didnt know about the "would you. could you. on a train?" incident before, but knowing people have made conspiracy theories over it just makes me more afraid... a terrible coincidence led people to invent nonsense over a real and serious accident caused by an awful condition. i hope im mistaken, but i wonder if some people out there got the wrong ideas about sleep apnea over this. like demonizing it...
11:25 I didn't even know the world was supposed to end in 2017 🤷🏼♂️
I only knew about the 2011 and 2012 end of the world theories. After that I really didn't give a crap about the end of the world because if it's my time to go, then it's my time to go.
all the time someone somewhere is preaching about or worried about the end of the world
I onetime got a message warning me of civil unrest outside of the local courthouse, followed up by a correction saying it was false. A week later there was civil unrest outside of the court house leading to loss of life. I never took a screenshot of that initial alert, but it was quite unnerving.
4:01 you cant be doing that to me i was playing minecraft while listening to this 😭😭
Lol
Unrelated to the rest of the video, but I actually live really close to the place the "Would you. Could you. On a train?" one happened. I don't actually live in Utica (I live in a town a couple of miles away called German Flatts) but I do go there every couple of months for appointments. My dad also grew up in a town close by called Herkimer, yet neither of us have ever heard of this incident before until I watched a DTFATI video from nexpo a couple weeks ago. Interesting.
Edit: My dad actually grew up in Herkimer, not Illion. I asked him a while ago and I guess I got them mixed up from something else. BTW: All of these towns are located in Herkimer county, which also means there is a town called Herkimer inside of Herkimer county, inception.
Its so cool to see a video on the zombie EAS that mentions the fight em till you can't lines- the first time i saw the EAS video i immediately recognized it but I've seen no one else ever bring it up, either in a video or a comment

this is super niche but during hurricane harvey in 2017 (fort bend county) one of the eas’s that were issued was messed bc you could hear music while there was the message on screen after the info for that eas was over and it somehow blended into one that came right after 😭 it was really weird and it freaked me out but i don’t remember much about it bc i was in elementary when it happened hbut i do remember them people messed it up

this sorta happened yesterday, the eas here in taiwan said (in english) "chinese missle over Taiwan" but its just a sattelite launch
I was literally in school at that time, it was crazy
6:36 and that line is from the book named green eggs and ham by doctor seuss meaning the hazardous substance the alert was talking about was the green eggs and ham itself
8:17 AINT NO WAY BRO💀 THATS WILD💀 IM LAUGHING SO HARD💀
Good video, I've always enjoyed coverage on EAS stuff!
this channel constantly caters to my niche interests. i love it here so much
9:53
"aight imma sit down"
bro broke the chair so hard it sent a eas alert /joke
Fun Fact: Jim Carey was in hawaii during the missile eas, Apparentally he just sat down on the sand texted his loved ones and watched the horizon while he talk about how he had a good life.
very well made video i liked how you kept to the point and didnt add a load of filler
you know it’s a good day when nimk uploads
i seriously cannot thank you enough for turning down the beeping and giving us a warning that the beeps will be included. hearing the beeps at random at their full volume often makes me panic and totally shut down, and ive clicked on videos that randomly play these noises without warnings before. having a warning helps so much i genuinely cannot put it into words ℭ.⸜(⠀ ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )⸝⸜( ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )⸝𝒰ᵗ♛︎⡱
I was gonna comment this exact thing
lol wimp
also for some reason a lot of people put the warning like half a second before the sound happens so you barely have time to turn it down
bro same
Dam, i wanted to hear them.
in missouri, specifically the kansas city area, we got an amber alert telling us "GOTHAM CITY MO PURPLE/GREEN 1978 DODGE 3700 GT MO UKIDME."
7:15 what, they think Sam I. Am caused the crash?
your vids remind me SO much of the youtube era from 2012-2014!! and thats so awesome
5:31 *"Civil Authorities has issued a dumbass warning."*
0:16 WHAT? NO DUUUUUDE!!!
I once got an EAS alert in Washington during the wildfires. It said “Evacuate the area immediately, do not hesitate! Get all your family, pets, children, and leave immediately!” I checked where the location it mentioned was, and it was some 40 miles away. It came back and said, “we apologize for the previous inconvenience. This was a message only meant for a specific location, but we accidentally initiated it statewide. Please continue on with your day.”
That was interesting.
Have you guys ever seen the eas alert Maryland sent out? It was just a friendly reminder to wear your masks and then it got all glitched out. I don’t remover it exactly but it was something like
“Enjoy thanksgiving! Stay inside, wear a mask and remember Maryland %%6ðrkkfksn%##hjwkichqbjfbwjjcbwjfjqnf”

So glad you've gifted us with another great vid!
Absolutely terrifying, I got woke up by a test at 4:56 am and around 5 due to a tornado warning
10:43 inwould have probably not slept for afww days if this was the eas.
you got the info about the zombie one wrong. the anthrax song and the EAS alert sampled a faux EAS video from the mid 2000s that (iirc) was from a halloween website. the EAS alert did not sample the anthrax song, they just got the audio from the same source.
yup, i found the original video. completely looked over the date when i was researching, it was posted in ‘08
Been here since you had 400 subs, Your latest videos are amazing! Keep up the good work!
Woahhhhh, love the effort in this
1:57 and one of these notifications was Coincidentally paired with a duolingo notification saying: „you haven't done your korean lessons, you know what happens now“ which made for a dope meme in the duolingo meme pantheon
Coincidentally*
@@Sacroooooooooooooooooooooooooo Alright im changing it
Love how Mr. Gerde just randomly shouted out Vinesauce. He must’ve gotten at least a few new fans from that.
My fave example of a messed up eas was a small town where the audio of the test got replaced with ✨smooth jazz✨ for a new months. I think it was called Altice?
4:09 NEW MEXICO!!!???? LIKE HALF LIFE!?!?!! HEADCRAB ARE REAL!!!!! MOM COME PICK ME UP IM SCARED
IT STARTS WITH-
i had an EAS alert about a suspicious car from Gotham City with the license plate: UKIDME
I think that's the Joker's car 😭-
10:48 god damn that'd be scary af
T-Mobile doesn't issue WEAs in San Diego, CA for some reason. We had a tropical storm last year and we didn't get a tropical storm warning on our phones despite one being issued for our area. We didn't get any tests, other severe weather warnings, or AMBER Alerts when issued. Devices had them enabled and work in other areas but not in San Diego (my local area). T-Mobile didn't fix the issue, despite customer service saying their towers are woking "as expected " its dangerous and a major safety hazard.
Good to know! I use T-Mobile so if I ever go there I'll keep this in mind. In the meantime, there's tons of weather alerting apps you can download. I downloaded 8 from the Play Store because what really matters is if _at least one_ works when it needs to. Bonus points because a bunch use alternate mediums to get their point across so even if I'm doing something else I might see something.
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
your hair is such a pretty colour omg ALSOOOO i loooveee EAS and your videos so this was a real treat ❤
6:22 I never knew this happen in my hometown bruh
i live in a hawaiian household, but i moved away from hawaii in 2016. my (step)dad always tells me the story how he and my (step)brother were at dennys for breakfast until everybodys phones were blowing up, he saw the message, missile inbound, he looked over and asked someone if it was on their phone and it was. my other (step)brother who we will call S was stuck somewhere else, i dont remember what it was. so mg dad and brother who we will call L sped through the roads to hopefully reach S in time. my memory gets fuzzy at this part but despite my brother being pre adolescent i think, he wasnt crying. he akways says that he believed there wasnt time to cry. they eventually got there and tried to get home but traffic was bad. by then im pretty sure they got the alert that it was a false alarm.
when nimk uploads you know it's gonna be a banger after waiting for a while
This was cool! It’s funny how someone did the Green Eggs And Ham thing lol
