I hope they become friends irl and can have deeper conversations off camera. It's nice to think the hermits are close off camera, but the evidence suggests otherwise.
@@TheFansOfFictionSome of them are definitely friends IRL-Impulse & Skizz, obviously, and Mumbo and Grian, but also Doc and Iskall met up in the real world for some epic shenanigans.
@@GSBarlev That's good! I was specifically thinking about Xisuma saying a lot of them don't talk outside of game, and the fact that not many Hermits seem to actually know Etho. I should have been more specific with my wording. I think it's important for people, especially internet creators, to have strong relationship apart from work so they can work through the things that are none of our business.
@@TheFansOfFiction Keep in mind how carefully Etho, X and Cleo guard their real identities. Also remember how much this game is part of each of their lives. There's nothing _inherently_ wrong with letting their "work friends" not bleed into their personal lives, though I agree with you that it's really beautiful when it does.
I wondering if he started to realize he might be divulging too much information and just started saying that to every other thing Scar and Joel said to lead everyone in the wrong direction
Etho said years ago that his family does beekeeping/runs a greenhouse if I remember correctly, and that he went there to live and help his parents. So it would make sense he lives a little more remotely.
he said it in one of his LP episodes last year after he went away for a while. the episode he came back he explained that he had to help out a lot more shoveling snow off of the greenhouse because his dad was in bad health or something like that. i don’t remember the episode number or about the time it was released tho, sorry about that
@@dawson8854 I do remember him saying something about helping his family out when one of them was in bad health, now that you mention it. But I don’t remember him mentioning a greenhouse, it’s certainly plausible
@@dawson8854 went back to look, its from Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 567: A Tough Situation episode Chapter 2. His mom wasn't doing the best but got better, however his dad passed away from an undisclosed type of brain cancer. So Etho and his other family members had to help manage the situation (end of life insurance policy, financial liquidation / management of resources, etc...)
love how Joel vehemently denies British stereotypes (except the tea addiction) meanwhile: Joel and Scar: *throws out the craziest rural Canadian stereotypes Etho: *well.. you're not wrong..*
I kinda wonder if all the "you're not far off"s were more like Etho just joking around rather then giving actual information, like the beard and microwaved potatoes are probably true but the others were more like a "yeah sure let's go with that" kinda thing. Either way Etho is an interesting man and he's slowly becoming one of my favorite perspectives in any series he's in
I think there's probably more truth in what he shared. I live in the Rocky Mountains which extends far north into Canada and Alaska, so I can imagine the plausibility in a number of things Etho shared.
@@StuffandThings_ that's actually not too extreme, I know a lot of people living in rural communities and it's quite common to use firewood to keep warm in the winter. It's much more reliable than electricity, and you'd be surprised with how much firewood you can split in a few hours
Yaknow, ur not too far off, etho has been known to share is morning bacon and maple syrup with roaming bears looking for shelter, i hear hes even had a tustle with one, only to end up befriending it
He's west coast Canada too, I think the community narrowed it down to Alberta? Back in the Team Canada days they complained about timezones, Pause in Manitoba and Beef in Toronto, they said Etho was 2 hours ahead of Beef.
"It's not the potato I'm interested in" I've never heard a man describe a potato as a vessel for butter before. Etho, a very unconventional man, just doing his own thing, lol
I’ve been watching Etho for over a decade and have always assumed IRL he is a buff ragged mountain man. He occasionally mentioned that he has to dig out snow, mend a building, etc. He used to have real crap internet I remember he would mention that all of the time in his LP episodes. My assumption is that he lives in the middle of nowhere. All of that to say that this new Etho lore is unsurprising but I enjoy hearing it anyway. I understand why he would want to remain private. 😂
I seem to recall one time a fan asked for him to describe himself in one of his LP episodes (or something of the sort) and he said he was tall and kind of lanky. He also used to help his parents out doing Botany stuff. I wonder if he's a t-shirt and jeans kind of guy or flannel and jeans lol He's just a fascinating guy.
@@tillythehun He really does, He's the one I'd want to meet the most just to shake his hand and simply say thank you for helping me get through so many tough times with your videos.
@@shelbyjackson6903 100% I didn’t know what he was talking about most of the time with the redstone but I enjoyed listening to his voice. Very calming.
at what point does etho start messing with people? At what point does he let it slip that he has syrup on every breakfast food, or he has bear bells on every pair of pants he has or something like that, if I know rural folk even a little bit, I know they like to mess with people who are enamored with the idea of their lifestyle.
I always like to say "Etho is more Kakashi than Kakashi could ever be", infact the only reason I watched Naruto is cause peple saying he is like Kakashi and it would be good to see Etho like character on TV.
Yes, I kinda have the same thinking there. Never meet your heros, I like Etho very much, I just cant risk knowing something about him which could risk that.
@@kaivalya931 yes this is my exact thinking, "never meet your heros". i love etho the way he is now and don't wanna risk changing that. i do like some of this etho lore, i just don't want too much.
@@eatham. I feel like it's super likely that he's one of the few that meeting wouldn't ruin. He's saved a girl's life after a car wreck, he's repeatedly done very wholesome things off camera and been extremely reluctant to share them in spite of the fact it just makes him look good to do so, and he's been incredibly kind and helpful with everyone he's been seen with so far. I agree that I hope he doesn't do a face reveal, but it isn't because I don't want to meet my hero, it's because the guy's said before he kinda doesn't want that spotlight. I already worry about the amount of pressure on him as it stands now, I'd hate to see how much that pressure ramps up if he revealed his identity like that. I just hope whatever happens, he gets to take it at his own pace and isn't pressured too heavily regardless of what path he chooses to take.
I hope when Minecraft dies down in 10, 20 or 30 years and he goes into his well deserved retirement, he will just upload a slideshow of his log cabin, his PC setup, his general area. And at the end he turns around and has a kakashi mask on, winks into the camera and - Fin - .
I think he's just doing it for fun, I mean a lot of the things he's describing are really mundane ordinary things but man is it cool to hear about them from him for some reason xd
I like to picture Etho living alone in a log cabin in the woods, far away from any civilization, which is why no one is able to stop him from doing crazy things like microwaving potatoes and the whole tissue box mic
There no danger to be found In any case the danger is for the people trying, One thing is to dox and expose private info extracted from a social network site or archives from a pc, the other to physically look for him, since these people will not know the place they re going while Ethos has knowledge in the area he lives. And if it's a rural area, people do carry guns. The government also keeps a close eye on its citizens So it worse for them Then for Etho.
It can be a good way to speed up the process. Microwave it long enough to almost cook it then chuck it in the oven for 10mins to crisp it up a bit and finish it off.
just the skin gets crispy, the inside should be soft. I usually do twice baked potatoes though, those are basically mashed potatoes inside the crispy skin with toppings@@bunnydemitrigenderflux
Okay, but what the hell did he mean by "you're shockingly not far off"?! He connects his PC to a steam generator?! "Through the power of firewood and coal, I shall record Let's play Minecraft."
Right?? Like, if anything the potato might get a little dry or burnt in the microwave, but how soggy?? Maybe they were thinking of already baked potatoes being reheated slightly??
He lives in the mountains and just recently got good internet. He doesn't have a cell phone. Now I understand why I like his content so much. Taters and generators.
I feel like Etho's house WAS an off grid homestead but then he wanted to play viddy games. That or he just says yes whenever someone makes a random guess.
Get your potato, stab it a whole bunch, quite deep, give it a rinse, 10-20 mins in microwave, check and flip it every 5 mins or so by poking a knife in, you want it a bit soft. Not amazing, but it’s still pretty good and food in your belly. Some salt and butter is good enough. Beans and cheese if your feeling fancy
Etho probably looks scary but also the sweetest person. A giant bearded-person probably also muscular if he really chops wood but has the heart of a bee, iirc he tends flowers before, saved a woman in car wreck, and given the warm community he has in TH-cam, Etho is an incredible person
I got to play Minecraft with Etho many, many years ago during the old reddit Minecraft tournament. I don't watch many Minecraft videos these days, but I'll always tune in for new Etho content.
Seeing Etho in real life is both something I want to see but at the same time I feel it would be way too jarring if he looks nothing like I expect. Might break my reality
I’ve come to terms that I’ll never just run into a random celebrity when I’m out and about, because nobody is where I’m from. buuuut also being near the Rocky Mountains in Canada, there’s a chance I run into etho! which is better imo
Okay but microwave potatoes are nice. YOU WANT INSTRUCTIONS? I’ll tell ya it’s real simple. Ingredients and tools needed: Potato, fork, ziplock bag, bowl, water, microwave. Step one: wash the potato off. Step two: take a fork and stab all the sides of the potato. Deep enough but don’t break the poor thing. Step three: fill the bag with some water, but not to the very top. Step four: fill the bowl with water and put potato in bag, half close the bag, then put the potato bag in water. Step five: shove your odd abomination in the microwave and set the time to 3 minutes. Step six: stab the potato to check if it’s done. If not soft enough shove it back into the microwave and add 1-2 minutes. Then you can add whatever toppings you like. I enjoy butter if it’s all I’ve got, some shredded cheese, etc.
i recognized that phone noise IMMEDIATELY when ethos phone went off during this seasons intro. i had a flip phone until probably three years ago (was actually kinda great) and i was just hit with a wave of “oh shit, gotta check my phone” when i heard it.
i absolutely hate that some people doxed him with the little information that he gave out that one time. its gotta be nerve wracking when he talks about this kinda stuff...but i have to admit the more cryptic info we get about him the more intrigued i am 😂 hope Effo is living his best life out in the Canadian wilderness with the meese
Hello I am a canadian and an Etho fanatic. I think i might be on to something here. There is a little known law in canada left over from days of yore. Where if you inhabit crown land and dig a ditch on it in a year. you get prospecting rights and land ownership. ITs rarely done these days. Almost all seven points lend to this homestead lifestyle. Also im guessing an have always guessed that he is in northern ontario or bc
The Etho Lore community "learning" Etho, a man, is capable of growing stubble reminds me when Etho talked about bumping his arm on his desk. "Etho: at least one elbow."

I think he lives in the wilderness

Exactly
with how he lives and acts, he just might be the last from the anbu still in a hidden mission
Kakashaki*
he kakashaki 😹

etho is a proper hermit living his homestead life out in the snowy mountains of canada
GenerikB may be the original Hermit, but Etho is the living embodiment of the Hermits
Etho is The Hermit.

4 scariest things Etho could Say “Your Not Far Off”

I wondering if he started to realize he might be divulging too much information and just started saying that to every other thing Scar and Joel said to lead everyone in the wrong direction
@@scarletrain6757Canada's a big ass place he didn't say anything that could specify a single place though lol
@@whatwhatwhatttttt yeah I know it was either all true, covering his tracks, or he decided to turn it into a joke

join meee. he has been my favorite perspective since 2012. its been great
You see the occasional deer or coyote in the city once in a while. There was a cow on a main road once but I think it was an escapee from a trailer
Etho seems to be so much happier recently, and he's actually talking about little details in his personal life, it's so great
You're not that far off
I did hear that his dad died mid-ish season 9, so it could be that slowly but surely hes been healing and has been happier. idk tho just speculating
@@YourOldImaginaryFriend His dad was very ill at the start of S9, and died not long after S9 started, which was why Etho came into S9 late.
now I’m actually starting to believe his most canadian thing he’s ever done story was completely true.

why is this so accurate lol
You’re not far off haha
So true!
Can’t be easy repairing your fence from a moose accident with all those creepers around. Canada is a crazy place! XD
This is like parent lore
I've always pictured Etho as a mountain man, who goes out each morning to cut up logs to burn in his fireplace for warmth
Honestly same, though not quite to that extreme degree I always saw him as a rural woodsy type
@@StuffandThings_ that's actually not too extreme, I know a lot of people living in rural communities and it's quite common to use firewood to keep warm in the winter.

i wish i had a source other than 'trust me bro"
I love how mundane so much of this is. Yet, cause we know so little about etho, its huge etho lore.
Haha, this is well said. Etho is really something
What we know about etho: he is a guy, he lives somewhere in canada, he plays minecraft
your not far off...
Most recently he microwaves potatoes 🥔
You forgot that he also has a house! Important bit of info right there.
He's west coast Canada too, I think the community narrowed it down to Alberta? Back in the Team Canada days they complained about timezones, Pause in Manitoba and Beef in Toronto, they said Etho was 2 hours ahead of Beef.

Seems like he’d live comfortably in the How to Train Your Dragon universe. Or just, in Viking times in general
I'd say Saskatchewan near some lake, north of Regina but not a 'major' city. Not something as remote as a reserve either. Definitely a hamlet.
I stand with Etho on microwaved baked potatoes! It's convenient and just as good! Now, the one audio track on the other hand...
The trick is to finish it in the oven on a high heat for about 10mins, gets the nice crispy skin with most of the speed of the microwave method.
Bake potatoes boiled.
Not microwave
Is unhealthy.

I CACKLED at this nooooo-
Fun fact on the topic of wild Canadian stereotypes, but Gem actually eats moose on the regular.
they are edible???! I googled it and yes?! what?! How did I not know that??

5 years is insane 💀💀
Why lost respect?

One thing is to dox and expose private info extracted from a social network site or archives from a pc, the other to physically look for him, since these people will not know the place they re going while Ethos has knowledge in the area he lives.
And if it's a rural area, people do carry guns.
The government also keeps a close eye on its citizens
So it worse for them
Then for Etho.
LMAO, this comment is actually brilliant and hilarious
He’s definitely single if he’s microwaving potatoes.
Nah he's having a secret relationship with Taxes and they're gonna elope next week
It can be a good way to speed up the process. Microwave it long enough to almost cook it then chuck it in the oven for 10mins to crisp it up a bit and finish it off.
Why do people hate microwaved potatoes?!?! If y'all want weird crispy dry potatoes, you have chips for that! Lol
TRUE!!
just the skin gets crispy, the inside should be soft. I usually do twice baked potatoes though, those are basically mashed potatoes inside the crispy skin with toppings@@bunnydemitrigenderflux
"You're not far off" is such a good bit I hope he keeps it up x') We'll never truly know him if he agrees withe everything vaguely
at this point etho feels like an scp: "The Canada Man" or something like that
“I’m still a noob” says the guy who is quite literally a pioneer in minecraft youtube 😂
I think etho is a hermit in the most litteral sense of the word
Not really
Pretty sure he lives with other people, or people close by.
what if this is all to throw us off? Etho is the type of guy to play that 4D chess for sure.
Yes and no

He lives in the mountains and just recently got good internet. He doesn't have a cell phone. Now I understand why I like his content so much. Taters and generators.
I love all the new etho lore we're getting now thay he plays more on the server😅
I’m mildly convinced he’s in witness protection
0:14 scar says “we just got a morsel joel”
etho lore is so interesting bc he will just say "a moose knocked down my fence the other day" out of nowhere
Somehow this all feels like very on brand Etho behavior, like somehow he's exactly how I would imagine

That or he just says yes whenever someone makes a random guess.
Take a shot every time Etho says “your not far off”
Getting flash backs to the stig form top gear.
"Some say he had to go on a three day trek to get new pc parts"

These streams have been amazing for Etho lore.
I like that the hermits also love etho lore crumbs XD
I'm starting to wonder if Etho is not "washed up," but rather, does he have a bathtub at all?
I found the popping in effect of the subtitles rather distracting, but I did appreciate the effort it took to put them in.
Bro i only started seeing hermitcraft now and i still cant understand etho, i dont think this guy even exist fr
I swear this man is an Enigma, Every time we learn something new it’s ether he eat microwave potato’s or he once helped save someone’s life?!
i was in chat when etho said he has a beard
the chat blew up
it was insane how people forgot that adult males typically have some form of facial hair
I think it was more: we have no idea what Etho looks like, and this is the closest we’ve gotten.
1:03 he lives in Canada. Why are you surprised he has an axe?? Doesnt everyone?! 😂
He lives in the Hidden Leaf Village, guys
“You’re not far off there” 😂
we are blessed they caught etho in a lore dumping mood
Get your potato, stab it a whole bunch, quite deep, give it a rinse, 10-20 mins in microwave, check and flip it every 5 mins or so by poking a knife in, you want it a bit soft. Not amazing, but it’s still pretty good and food in your belly. Some salt and butter is good enough. Beans and cheese if your feeling fancy
Etho probably looks scary but also the sweetest person.
A giant bearded-person probably also muscular if he really chops wood but has the heart of a bee, iirc he tends flowers before, saved a woman in car wreck, and given the warm community he has in TH-cam, Etho is an incredible person
Grian look like he has muscle and Mumbo is huge.
Yet they re not the fighting type.
"You're not far off there.." 😂😂😂
I feel like Etho would be the type to just go along with the conversation and see what people make up about him and just go “yep”.
Some OLDschool Etho lore:
He has a middle name and is more on the skinny side
I am convinced Etho is just Paul Bunyan but he decided to start a minecraft youtube channel.
etho could be a wanted criminal in multiple countries and we would never know
I got to play Minecraft with Etho many, many years ago during the old reddit Minecraft tournament. I don't watch many Minecraft videos these days, but I'll always tune in for new Etho content.
Ethos up in Canada playing IRL minecraft lmao
Seeing Etho in real life is both something I want to see but at the same time I feel it would be way too jarring if he looks nothing like I expect. Might break my reality
As a Canadian I can attest to wildlife being everywhere I've had a Bear walk through my yard before and a deer give birth in my yard
I’ve come to terms that I’ll never just run into a random celebrity when I’m out and about, because nobody is where I’m from. buuuut also being near the Rocky Mountains in Canada, there’s a chance I run into etho! which is better imo
At first i was like: Ethos 12 feet tall, has a beard and an axe....is he hot? And then he microwaves his potatoes....
I mean he’s completely ripped and is a man’s man it seems. I’m starting to see where the term “ethogirl” came from
Okay but microwave potatoes are nice.
YOU WANT INSTRUCTIONS? I’ll tell ya it’s real simple.
Ingredients and tools needed: Potato, fork, ziplock bag, bowl, water, microwave.
Step one: wash the potato off.
Step two: take a fork and stab all the sides of the potato. Deep enough but don’t break the poor thing.
Step three: fill the bag with some water, but not to the very top.
Step four: fill the bowl with water and put potato in bag, half close the bag, then put the potato bag in water.
Step five: shove your odd abomination in the microwave and set the time to 3 minutes.
Step six: stab the potato to check if it’s done. If not soft enough shove it back into the microwave and add 1-2 minutes.
Then you can add whatever toppings you like. I enjoy butter if it’s all I’ve got, some shredded cheese, etc.
Thank you i have screenshot this
If they don't taste good can I sue you.
@@AgnesBooth-zu7tw yeah sure but I’m poor. Why do you think I make potatoes in the microwave lol
i live in canada and you would be suprised with how much of this stuff is normalised
I endeavour to live the kind of life where I can baffle people like this.
I wouldn't even be surprised if he turned out to be a fugitive
That's f*ck up
And it's no funny.
Watch your mouth.
Ngl, I relate to a lot of things Etho is experiencing... Living in the sticks, terrible internet, old equipment, being poor, etc.
When has he said that he is poor?
Piece by piece Etho is giving us clues on what he looks like IRL
i recognized that phone noise IMMEDIATELY when ethos phone went off during this seasons intro. i had a flip phone until probably three years ago (was actually kinda great) and i was just hit with a wave of “oh shit, gotta check my phone” when i heard it.
Wasn't that Tango though?
@@LibraryofAcousticMagic3240 i am stupid, it was. i figured that out like last week and have been very embarrassed at myself since then lol.
Big mistake, a beard will surely make him easy to find in an ice cold climate!
Perhaps
But who is going to bother
To physically look for him
They could found hul and he will claim to be tom
if you have a good microwave you can use it to make super crispy baked potatoes
i absolutely hate that some people doxed him with the little information that he gave out that one time. its gotta be nerve wracking when he talks about this kinda stuff...but i have to admit the more cryptic info we get about him the more intrigued i am 😂 hope Effo is living his best life out in the Canadian wilderness with the meese
Microwaved baked potatoes are better when you wrap them in tinfoil
this man.......
Hello I am a canadian and an Etho fanatic. I think i might be on to something here. There is a little known law in canada left over from days of yore. Where if you inhabit crown land and dig a ditch on it in a year. you get prospecting rights and land ownership. ITs rarely done these days. Almost all seven points lend to this homestead lifestyle. Also im guessing an have always guessed that he is in northern ontario or bc
He's in western Canada, he has the same timezone as Impulse for half the year.
Eefo lore is crazy
Absolutely love learning etho has a weirdly (probably) unnecessary labor filled home life. A true blue collar hero
It’s Joel’s genuinely baffled “What???” after Etho says “You’re not far off” for the first time
“i was playing with my stubble”
The Etho Lore community "learning" Etho, a man, is capable of growing stubble reminds me when Etho talked about bumping his arm on his desk.
"Etho: at least one elbow."
He is a floating genderless entity until proven otherwise
This is exactly what I thought lol
I think it was more: we have no idea what Etho looks like, and this is the closest we’ve gotten.
