This video is absolutely legendary. I love your channel, dude!
Hi StorK :D
Incredible, the TF2 community is a total gem
Truly is. A god of badass and memes.
be silent
Gary seems like such a nice guy
Commenting cause your channel is dry again eh?
@@AliAbdelaziz-bq3rn Nah dude LIMC's channels solid like literally so many new memes pop up that make 0 sense and this man saves me every time
i thought he was just a myth
Lol
It’s a myth come true
hi berd
Oh he is, and a man and a legend.
BERD! QUICK GET ME MY SHOTGUN!
Even at an old age, the tf2 cast still are active in the community. Such legends.
Sadly the voice actor for Soldier passed away a few years ago 😢
@@MasterChiefSpartan117yeah it's very sad :(
@@egodspiderman9792even Solider, though he is now dead, is more active than Valve.
@@Super-Earth-High-Command yes
@@MasterChiefSpartan117 covid 19 is a spy
The fact he mimics EVERY movement from the trailer just proves how passionate he is
It's called... Recreating the original video.
Jesus Christ... Seems like whenever people like something, that person is better than Jesus and Santa combined -_-
@@SioxerNikita Oh come on just let people like things, you don't have to be a bastard about it.
@@Fartomicbomb There's a difference between liking something and making something that isn't special sound super special.
If anything he should focus on something like "He recreated the old awesome voice perfectly, despite it being so long!" Or something, instead of platitudes.
@@SioxerNikita I mean fair enough, but it is kinda special that he made all the moves, because if he didn't, it just wouldn't look right.
@@Fartomicbomb It's not really special, it's just being a good actor, like a lot of other actors, and having a decent to good director to help get it right.
I love this! He's still got it!
The man is here
Hey its mah boy
It’s the guy from fortnite
Great animations mr winglet
Oh shit It's the Winglet!
He's still got it after over a decade!!
Heavy = gigachad also I love ur videos
I'm impressed, it's been what almost 20 years? He sounds EXACTLY the same
I'd argue this performance is better than the one he did in the "Meet the" trailer, you can tell he put more emotion in this.
Hey look it’s FSRICKO, hello again

makes me hella happy that old people gets so much support and love
hell yeah dude
It's easy, just be the voice of the TF2 Heavy!
this was fucking awesome
Hi Wavy!
the real heavy
Hey,this guy
very cool
its wavy!!1
I swear, hearing Heavy while watching a real Person speak feels so surreal, almost uncanny valley. You know its the voice actor, but it also is as if someone put the OG audio over an old man!
Just gets to show how GOOD he still is with this voice, nearly 15 years later
It's the same any time Mark Hamill voices the Joker irl, or that infamous scene from Jennifer's Body with the voice actor for Patrick. Surreal and then some.
It's kinda the same of seeing the original image of mat pat where the sort of cutout originally came from like I swear it has to have been edited but it's not
the WHAT valley
You know how some time, you know someone whos big and you dont see them for years and years and you finally catch up and theyre now old and grey and lost loads of weight?
It's like that.. the heavy has came out of retirement to relive his glory days from like 30 years ago
I said it to some friends a while back, but it doesn't feel like watching the voice actor for the heavy, it feels like watching a really good impersonator.
The characters are so iconic and recognisable that part of me almost can't accept them as fake?
Tf2 is something special. A perfect storm, robust and iconic voice acting by a wonderful team, and a company willing to let the memes flow without copyright strikes. A whole culture sprung up from Valve games, I with they'd make more.
This guy does such a good Heavy impression, Valve should hire him.
Gary still got it years later, it's genuinely impressive how good of a voice actor he is!
as they say...
form is temporary, class is permanent
"Excellent, Snake. Age hasn't slowed you down one bit."
Gary has a lot of control over his voice, it’s pure talent.
P O O T I S
Yeah Heavy and Demoman voices are completely.
he has a completely different facial structure from the heavy, and yet perfectly captures his character in his face, it's incredible how well he's kept up his acting over the span of 15 years
That part I noticed too. like god damn, really inspirational.
Almost like they used his manerisms for the face and stuff when doing the heavy in meet the heavy!
Yo same pfp lol
@@PasgetiRBLX i thought i was talking to myself again when i saw this comment lmfao
Well, he did miss Heavy’s BIG smile and LOUD laughter in the original when shooting his gun at the end.

Every actor who voice acted in TF2 helping out ShorK is amazing. It's so cool that they all agreed to help the community brighten up a bit. Without them this saga would've ended a long time ago. I'm grateful that I live in the same time as all these people.
I don't know how to express my happiness seeing this, as a fan I get emotional seeing someone like him do something like this, even after years, we must elevate our voice actors and show our affection
I’ve always been a huge fan of voice actors since my first watch of Avatar the Last Airbender when I was like 6 due to Mako.

I am DEFINITELY gonna miss this guy when he passes. This guy is too good at what he does.
Crazy how he can still pull this voice. Heavy sounds so gutteral you'd think he could lose his voice like the rock stars.
For the love of god Valve, PLEASE notice the passion Gary, Shork, and the team put into this to make this happen. TF2 is truly alive and well.

Gary is the definition of "I love my character", and a legendary voice for a mythical and formidable character like the Pootis guy
Exactly
I would argue the scout voice actor is a good contender
Gary is like the video game version of Peter Cullen (both are overall amazing actors and still love voicing their respective characters)
I find it so nice that Gary sees that year after year that random character that he thought would be something "meh" became a legend love you Gary ❤
dude his acting is so iconic and like the real animated short
Can we all agree that all the voice actors in TF2 are legends?
Yes
It's the fact that every one of them are a bunch of fuckin' memelords and revel in it; it's fantastic
Even pyro lol

@@jvgonzalez90 pyro has the same voice actor as spy
I imagine Heavy looking exactly like Gary once he gets older. Just a sweet elderly man with loads of stories to tell his grandkids
…and still with an ability to tear 10000 new ones in a minute should he ever feel the need to.
He'd be the cool uncle for Zhanna and Soldier's kids if they had them.
1K LIKES!
@@zaniatnikwell he IS the biggest family man in tf2
@racer927 ooooooooooooooo😊ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Heavy voiced this guy very well
Can I just say how absolutely amazing this is to see. In a community about a 15 year old game that's completely abandoned by its creators, we can have the real, actual voice actors getting together with fans and creators to make shit like this. The fact that the community is big and passionate enough to a point where we can get something like this to happen is what's so special to me. Bravo TF2, you truly are one of the most special games ever
A lot of times when he does heavy, he sounds strained and unnatural, almost like it's hurting. But this time he's definitely prepared and up for it! He absolutely killed it, and im glad hes doing it!
This profession you use so much of your body. Getting older as a voice actor is almost like getting older as a tradesman, your body just gives out on you.
@@thewillthewayyeah I heard a clip of Mel Blanc doing Bugs Bunny in his later years (1987 or something) and while he still did a good job you could tell his age was showing in his voice. In the 1989 Batman Betamax, I think it was Mel who did the voice for that “Warner Bros. Ball cap commercial” and it sounded like a granddad doing a Bugs Bunny voice
A lot of the time when he does it it’s in improvised settings like a con or whatever which is why it sounds that way. Usually in those situation they’re tired and are already talking a lot so its only natural they sound not up to snuff.
Pootis
Agreed
His voice is definitely much more aged and rougher, but it's still our dear Heavy in the flesh. Gary Schwartz is a legend amongst the fans for voicing a beloved gun toting mercenary.
Well, heavy was always a rough kinda guy so that works for me.
Its just how Heavy will sound when older
@@lknight8854heavy is already 50 years old
I honestly prefer this performance from Gary. It feels similarly nonchalant as in the original but his tone definitely better conveys what heavy has done in his life
TF2 voice actors are actual fucking legends. I can't tell you how much I love this
1:25 dude I love the person who did the family guy death pose 😂
This video perfectly demonstrates that truly skilled voice actors have to get into character and be just as expressive as in any other acting medium. Well frickin done Gary, you deserve a sandvich.
thats one of the reasons TF2 lasted so long is every character feels very interesting not just as a game character but the actors themselves getting into it at well.
this happened with po from kun fu panda as well. jack black got really into the character voice acting him and thats one of the reasons why the movies were so sucessful and why a clumsy panda works so well as an actually compelling protaganist.
another instance is the vermintide games having really good voice acting with every character really feeling like an actual person with emotions even from just a few idle banter exchanges, exactly like how left 4 dead was.
I like how he not only still has it in the voice, but even got his expressions and movements to mirror his animated character.
I thought it was faked he was so good!
@@gregfunneh6226he’s the voice actor of Heavy
@@ivantxic7870thx sherlock, didn't see the video DIRECTLY telling me that in the intro
These legends are my childhood come true. Great job on the costume designs. Everyone 10 out of 10 round of applause.
I know there's very little chance of ShorK seeing this, but I'm so grateful for what he's doing. Losing Rick May was such a devastating blow to the entire TF2 community, and it made us realize how talented, funny, and all of the TF2 voice actors really are. By making all these videos about the voice actors and inviting them to do recreations like this, ShorK is enabling us to never, ever take these legends for granted.
Nathan Vetterlein, Rick May, Dennis Bateman, Gary Schwartz, Grant Goodeve, Robin Atkin Downes, John Patrick Lowrie, Jean-Benoît Blanc, Ashley Burch, and Ellen McLain: they've provided so much enjoyment, immersion, and comedy for one of the greatest games every made - and ShorK is blessing us beyond compare by showing us how special they all are.
Thank you for having us help out there at the end! We had a lot of fun.

fun fact: cosplayers are gods at fashion
seriously how do ppl manage to do this
@@Freegame4.Well, TF2 cosplay is relatively easy to create. Miss Pauling requires only dark-purple shirt, light-blouse and glasses.
Man, 14 whole years, and this guy's voice hasn't aged one bit! Massive respect to Mr. Schwartz!
(now do Meet the Demoman)
that would be kinda hard to do meet the demoman

Don't do Meet the Demoman that would be blackface and the tf2 community would get mad.
Gary is like fine wine , hes voice got much better and there is something cool about a ``grandpa`` with a getling gun
I just love the amount of love that is around TF2, it's a 16 year old game that is still beloved and cared for with anyone involved, from production to players.
14 years have passed and his voice is still as powerful as it was in the past
I love Gary ❤
Had me worried there with the word passed and the heart emoji!
@@chickennuggets8685IKR I was reading it in my head and went “Hollup”
14 years is quite HEAVY to believe that much time has passed and I feel old even tho I’m as young as SCOUT is… lol
in a weird, confusing way this is wholesome.
doing something that that man did all these years ago, that he has put all of his heart and efforts into, to sound as good as he can, but in real life and with great attention to detail.
it warms my heart and makes me smile.
keep doing stuff like this ShorK, we appreciate this

very true
also i love ur videos
TF2 voice actors are what fandoms imagine voice actors to be like.

Meet the Heavy
Released May 14, 2007
16 years ago
Gary Schwartz, one of the most legendary voice actor to offer in this world.
Gary seems like such a kind, genuine person, I’d love to meet him some day
TF2 voice actors are such talented people and Gary Schwartz here is a clear example of that, I love them, and I really appreciate the awesome job they did for Heavy back on the day and here we have him still going at it and performing excellently, can't ask for more of him, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING HIM AND MAKING THIS PROJECT COME TRUE, I appreciate it so much as a part of this community that still lives on!
It’s so cute to see that the actors at there age still care a lot about this game. Almost made me shed a tear
All the TF2 Actors are so amazing. We'll never get a game as legendary as TF2 ever again.
“I’ve yet to meet one who can outsmart bullet”
Medic: “Are you sure about that?”
My sister actually got to recently meet all of the voice actors in Seattle. She said they had so much fun and they were all extremely kind and passionate people. And it’s insane to think how much they have contributed to my enjoyment over the years.
Scout was there too? Didn't see him post anything for over 2 years.
Well not all of them. Rick May sadly passed in 2020, Nathan Vetterlein has distanced himself from TF2 to pursue other things, and there's no way in hell Grant Goodeve would do this type of stuff. Still, good for her though.
@@Healthy_Kawkhe just took a (long) break from the internet. Remember, the dude's old now (40), i wouldn't want to waste my entire life playing video games either.
@@rubentelursurely he’d be doing voice acting work instead of just playing video games??
@@R__Aif I remember correctly he’s a film director and producer as his main job, As a matter of fact he wrote “Expiration date”.
Voice acting is a part of film production but to Nathan it’s more of a side hobby thing.
I may not be apart of the TF2 Community but this brings a tear to the eye seeing how much both the fans ands voice actors REALLY love this game and everything that came with it.
True, and I still can't grasp why people *try* to compare Overwatch with TF2, TF2 is not "in a whole another level"...TF2 IS THE WHOLE ANOTHER LEVEL
Nobody will ever love a game more than the TF2 community

Apart means the opposite.
and after all this time 😌💓
I love this so much ❤👏
As someone who has known every word from the short by heart for 14 years, I am completely satisfied. This is perfect.
I’ve yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet… 1:13
HIS ACTING IS FRAME BY FRAME PERFECT
And you guys editing and filming are BEYOND THE CHARTS
The fact Gary is still willing to do this after all this time is a testament to how amazing not only he is but the entire TF2 community and I hope we get to see other meet the real videos, I’d love to see Gary and Robin recreate the Meet the medic video
Gary Schwartz and Robin Atkin Downes have agree to recreate Meet the Medic.
Update: Gary Schwartz is now dead!
GARY SWARTZ IS DEAD?!
@@GamingTopTeni forgot to heal him
@@le_chef-KlownI think they meant as "He died trying to recreate the video" since, you know, medic is a bit unorthodox in his methods.
@@le_chef-Klowndude you scared me
I am so impressed at how well he nearly perfectly recreated this video. His attention to detail and recreation is something I appreciate immensely. Thank you Gary!!
The fact he just mimics the movement in the trailer is just awesome, also the ending shot is really cool, there was a lot of care put into this
His voice is so powerful and energetic, Gary is a fantastic voice actor. I find it hard to believe he even chose to do this!
VALVE IT IS NOT TOO LATE, this absolute legend can STILL do lines for the Heavy update, and we NEED to hear more of him !
In my original Facebook account over a decade ago I was a friend to a friend of Gary Schwartz when an announcement was made that he would be voicing Heavy. I was one of the only ones who knew who the character was, and I said I enjoyed the character. I was friends with one of the cast members from Zoobilee Zoo and he was Bravo Fox on that show. I lost that account long ago because my computer shut down and I have had no connection to the actors since then.
This man is a dedicated mad lad legend. It's honor have someone like Gary Schawrts voice one of the most iconic and loved characters in gaming. As a proud Heavy main I salute this man for not even old age will stop him being so amazing
This man is the most wholesome man ever. ❤
Give hin bullets, not an Oscar
Gary still got it, he puts everything he has into his acting at his age.
Gary deserves to be able to financially comfortably fire that gun however much he likes, and more.
If Mr Gary just had a more firm looking face with the one he has, I would flat believe he's Heavy I mean look at the living legend, you see that crazily similar looking face
This man has made the thing I always wanted to see, I’m satisfied :)
The pure accuracy of his movements is amazing! He and everyone involved did such a great job with this! Maybe we can eventually see more!
I know right? I watched this and the original side by side and it's perfect.
its like hes a professional actor or something
@@myusernameiscooldude I’m saying it’s impressive how accurately he can recreate the animation, there’s no need for you to be an ass
This is probably the sweetest thing to come out of the TF2 sphere in a while. Actually gave me such a weird wave of nostalgia hearing him recite it all over again. Gary’s an absolute legend, and so are you dude for putting this together.

@@nuclearstuff9442 Thanks!(?)
What a legend. TF2's voice actors were one the best aspects of that game
His body language was so on-point I thought this was some uncanny Polar Express animation for a whole second.
We need to protect this man at all costs,he's a living legend.
I don't think we could... he can protect himself more than we ever could!
This dude is single-handedly holding the entirety of team fortress two together, he got all of the voice actors ( that are still alive, RIP Rick May) to play the game for the first time, and now he re-created meet the heavy with the actual voice actor
Heavy just doing job as best he can, is strong enough to carry whole community with one hand!
But for real it's gonna be devastating when we lose this man, I feel like part of the soul of the community will go with him.
I always wanted to see the voice behind! THIS GUY IS A LEGEND!
I love it when actors are so passionate for their characters.
TF2's voice actors are a blessing, they truly love the game and the characters they interpret.
Despite his age he'll never get old of being the beloved Heavy. Honestly amazing how he keeps it in him all these years.
1:24 the engineer in the family guy death pose understood the assignment perfectly
Edit: and they got me at the end card. Goddamnit.
Gary really brought the Heavy back to life. Made me chuckle a moment with happiness.
Oh snap gasworks park
Dayum.
I have watched this 3 times and have been smiling throughout each time. So awesome that Gary still has the voice down so perfectly after all this time. Great job everyone involved!
I was laughing out loud at the finale.
Absolutely amazing. It's been over a decade since I played but still love this game and the community.
Heavy in his 70s. Still got it. Still has to meet one that can outsmart bullet.
No words can describe how beautiful this video is and how happy we as a community are to watch it
