Man his bird killing to stones thrown ratio is crazy.
Right? It's at least 10 gamer-game-frames
Birds gonna be extinct soon
bsr (bird/stone ratio)
Actually seen as though he's always killing 2 birds with one stone, the ratio is only a multiple of 2:1
Tycho der Kommentator but is that in game frames per gamer or in the game-frame-mainframe
It's more like throwing a bag of rocks at a single stationary bird and missing entirely
Catrina Corbett or giving yourself a concussion by hitting yourself in the back of the head with the follow through
@@RainbowJesusChavez Then you faceplant into the ground and scare away the bird, which proceeds to shit on you as you lay there.
@@PhileasLiebmann And then it turns out it wasn't a bird after all... It was hubris...
why you throwing rocks at birds?
@@manboy4720 To kill it, weren't you listening to Brian
Someone was just casually playing valorant somewhere in the world, and whether they realized it or not, they killed BDG while he ate out of a feed bag
Hi
hii
This is actually the first vid I've ever seen that puts into perspective how much money a sponsorship actually is and the answer is "entirely too much to give to Brian David Gilbert unsupervised".
Exactly
Or is it just enough.
I get the feeling that a company like Polygon can probably negotiate a larger amount of sponsor money than most independent TH-camrs.
Yeah I thought it was a lot less of what is shown
@@codinginthesaddle5641 it varies a lot.

And he proceeds to stop
I love how each time Brian says “I had more sponsorship money” it’s treated like villain saying “I’ve only been using 3% of my power!”
Well I mean
I love that this series has slowly stoped being bdg unravels this subject and becoming this subject unravels bdg.
I would imaging that was his initial pitch for the show; a man unraveling games, while the games unravel him.
maybe the subjects we unraveled were the friends we made along the way
It's always been that.
That's the actual joke
Rewatch episode 1. The only thing that’s changed is it has a bigger budget
Again Brian's hubris defeated him. He build the perfect ship before learning to sail and so it sank to the bottom of his *warm milk filled horse feeder*

Brian's desire for warm milk is a character trait best left undissected.
Why did polygon like this comment? What are they trying to say?

future sponsorships: 0
😂
hotel: trivago
Or so we thought
JOKES ON YOUUUU
Then, a 90's pocket dimension was made.
Watching the milk pour from your headset straw into your feed bag was such an enlightening moment to me about the dangers of capitalism or materialism or something.
why have I only seen polygon like two comments in this entire comment section and the other one was "Brian's desire for warm milk is a character trait best left undissected."
what exactly is polygon trying to say here??
(also I just realized that this comment was posted TWO YEARS after the video came out???? what polygon employee was scrolling through the comment section of a video TWO YEARS after it was released????? AND WHY DID THEY ONLY LIKE COMMENTS ABOUT BRIAN AND WARM MILK??????? I DON'T NEED SLEEP I NEED ANSWERS)
Every youtuber who gets a sponsor: uses it on paying for essentials and paying people like editors
BDG when he gets his first sponsor: "so i bought a HORSE FEEDER"
Wym that is essential
@@tzarlashnikov567 sseth is based
Given is editing skills it's very possible he did. Just... not in a way standard humans can comprehend or relate to....
Well see the food goes in the bag and the editor (him) is payed in horse feeders
brian: the gamer space is complete
video: has ten minutes left
me: *_something doesn’t feel right_*
This is like on Gourmet Makes when Claire says she figured out the recipe and there's 35 minutes left to the video.
@@aimelle3 i was so happy to find your comment when i clicked "view replies" because i knew
Like when they find the murderer 15 minutes in....
@@aimelle3 was not expecting a gourmet makes reference on this vid but that said you are 100% right with that statement.
If you don't regularly keep up with Brian's Twitch channel, I want you all to know he recently tried to install a pull-up bar on his doorframe for the stream... but the doorframe's molding wasn't strong enough to withstand it.
He is the Substandard Molding Guy, now and forever.

Better adaptation than Hadestown

This is like that one College Humor bit where you get stressed because you’re doing too many anti-stress exercises.

- Brian David Gilbert
yeah he loves lying
Hyena with Gun.
Love how brian's instinct during quarantine is to quarantine himself in an even smaller space
Quarantine: keep to yourself n stay distanced
bdg: *we can go deeper*
What I'm reading is that he's basically a cat.
He's going to crack faster than the other NY Yter I know, and Some More News was already going off-the-rails before COVID.
Like a true Luigi
I want to see the face of the guy in the IRS when they see somebody writing off "horse feeder, sound proofing walls, morph suit and a gallon of milk" as buisness expenses
this.
The hell with him. I wanna see the face of the lucky patent attorney who gets to try to register the milk-based coolant system.
Your comment is making it very hard not to laugh through my gaming snacks
He'll probably think "Man, this must've been the CRAZIEST party""
Dude this made me laugh and I needed this going into 2021. Thanks man.
And today, we learned an important physics lesson in how siphons work
This comment just had me making plans on how I could heat a tropical fish tank with a gaming PC
Look it wouldve worked... if he had a second lower exit for the milk to let it drain back into the carton
camelbak replacement valves are a few bucks, coulda slapped one on there and been good to go XD
Me seeing his milk cooler setup: Brian no that’s a siphon-
The inevitable: happens
Moral of the story: don't give Brian sponsorship money until he takes a personal finance class
Guess he lied to the financial consultant in the video where he figures out when he'll retire.
Actual moral of the story: continue to give Brian sponsorship money and do not under any circumstances let him take a personal finance class.
In his Crash videoBrian has gotten more sponsor money and is even less responsible with it
Essentially, he just needs to learn to make 20k a month by being his own boss
He should just ask Dale for help.
I love how I had no idea what he meant when he said " '00s webcomic character" in his message to Pat, but once the banner was shown I immediately understood completely.

That sounds like my kinda vibe
I like how the series has slowly gone from “Brian goes insane because he overanalyzes games” to “Brian overanalyzes games and goes insane, before calming down and improving as a person

I feel like this is the ballsiest I’ve seen someone act with a sponsor.

A special congratulations to this episode for giving me more second hand claustrophobia than anything I’ve ever experienced before
I was really going "are we about to see Brian die?" that first squeeze. Thought his head was gonna pop off like a Barbie doll.
I love how his videos always end with “was I wrong? ...no. I was just weak” 😂. Weirdest mix of hubris and humility ever
Remember, God has cursed him for his hubris and his work is never finished.

1. Red
2. Green
3. Blue

@@HeyJinx no you're thinking of LGBT lights /j
My headcanon is that Brian's roommates have literally no idea what his job is and are ever more confused as lockdown continues
As far I am aware, Karen works for polygon too and Laura is his sister and is equally odd
They made weird videos before he went to Polygon and are still releasing off polygon content, just check his channel! You'll love it! XD
@@duskodair309 i think he lives with laura and jonah no?
@@chrissiefirefly5732 I thought Karen and Laura too. Maybe all three?

“In Hindsight, maybe I should have stopped there.” - BDG 2020
I feel like this should be Brian’s motto.
I mean, he was talking about what his motto should be.....
hindsight is 2020 after all
“You _should_ have stopped at one stage”
BDG has the too much gene. Jenna Marbles feel for him.
@@weeaboo869 2020: In hindsight, we should've skipped this year.
Realization: Unraveled is a way for Brian to improve his life under the guise of a show about games
Correction to *fail* at life improvements
"improve"
I feel like the reference to the fact Brian depends on having three cameras is woefully underrated in this vid
alternate title: brian overstimulates every single sense and wonders why he doesn't game better
;3c No, thanks I used to think he was normal but then I watched the feed bag and milk cooled pc I now know he is weird like everybody
Mine would be “Man kills to many birds with rocks.”
huge ADD energy
or also: man experiences The Adhd Experience
the worst part about this whole video is seeing bdg stylized as a ctrl+alt+del character. pat did a great job and it frightens me

it's really more penny arcade-y

The fact that he created a space, then covered up the space, then modeled the space for green screen, then covered himself, and then modeled himself was a thing of beauty. Surprised he didn't keep adding layers.
ran out of sponsorship money and also friends to ask favors from 😞

Same lmaooo
The goddamn Papyrus killed me. I am now dead.

I read this comment before watching and I was fully prepared and it was STILL too beautiful to fully behold.
Maybe the real treasure was the birds we stoned along the way.
It sounds like you’re talking about birds doing drugs and that is absolutely hilarious to me
This comment was stones ahead
great comment 10/10 thank u for the comment
You gave me a whole new meaning to the two birds with one stone analogy
Julia looking at Legoshi whenever she gets frustrated is honestly such a relatable mood lol
Can’t believe this mans really made a gaming room, covered it with a green screen, and then recreated it virtually and green screened himself into it digitally
The frequency of Unraveled episodes is becoming worrisome in a weird way.
How so?
@@malixcrash4126 I don't know, it's as if all he does now is work on videos that generally sent him down strange paths of insanity.

I forgot about the milk siphon and burst out laughing again on my second watch through.
Of course Brian accidentally created a siphon. Of course he did.
“Why don’t I kill two birds with one stone?” Famous last words
i was gonna say take a shot every time bdg says it lol
I am really concerned about the number of birds he killed for this video.

take a shot any time he mentions sponsorship money
Let’s get two birds stoned at once.

“Because God has cursed me for my Hubris, and my work is never finished.” -Brian David Gilbert
Of all the mics to buy I love how he immediately opted for the SM7B like yeah, go Brian, spend Riot's money.
I couldnt stop laughing the second time brian crawled back into his gamerspace
he treated it so fucking casually like "yeah thats life"
Brian's appearance in Unraveled
Season 1: lawyer who just passed the bar exam
Season 2: business consultant with children
Season 3: tenured college professor

At first the sponsorship was worrying, but quickly I realized just how wrong I was.
Give this man more money.
With more money, bdg could control the world
Same here honestly. I still prefer it unsponsored but once in a while it's fine. He went about it pretty well, still a pretty enjoyable BDG video with not too distracting sponsor plugs

Brian 15 minutes in: *wearing a neon green tactical suit* so I've purchased this horse feedbag
Ah yes. a horse feedbag, what every gaming setup needs.
i'm two minutes in and the implications of this comment are very exciting
This is like watching a greek hero myth unfold in real time.
the "Brian!!" from his roommate offscreen killed me instantly
“A horse feed bag.” Oh my freaking god. That was somehow completely unexpected and yet completely on brand.
When he said "what if all of me was compressed" i was expecting a gaming corset
same
I had these horrifying visions of some sort of fetishwear.
tbh with the build up I expected him to get banned for gaming naked until that point
And frankly, I was a little disappointed.
@@Zeteni pfft
Brian: gets a green screen to shrink the size of his face cams on stream
Also Brian: proceeds to pay someone to make an accurate 3D model of his room to put on the green screen which in turn makes the face cams the same size as before
How did “Draw me like a mid-2000’s webcomic character” translated into drawing so accurately, that’s amazing
I weirdly prefer this stay-at-home brand of Unraveled to the in-studio version. Without the walls of a studio and his coworkers to keep him in check, Brian is more off the rails than ever

That sudden twist at 9:20 had me literally laughing out so loud! I haven't laughed this bad in a long time! Thank you Brian!
Also the killed too many birds with too few stones had me choking.
Just as I thought your vids couldn't get any more ridiculous.
Realizing mid-way that Brian is going to waste all of the sponsorship money and time going in circles for 17 minutes was just hilarious.
Before he even started to drink the milk, I already knew what was going to happen. Fluid dynamics, Brian. F L U I D D Y N A M I C S
Now we see why Polygon didn't expense wagyu beef and home renovations.
And why they didn't give him several years of time off to look at his cat
I want to see the emails between BDG and the corporate suits who sent him sponsorship money.
Sponsors: "Hi Brian! How is the computer rig coming along? Mind if we get a few preview pics?
Stay well!
Valorant."
BDG: "milk-cooled.

There's something weirdly intimidating about Brian being a pro gamer.
He's already too good at too much
he doesn't look like he plays videogames
Agreed
He's been your Bisexual Brother, Fifties Father and Midwestern Mom: now it's time for GAMER GRANDMA
6:30 the Substandard Moulding Guy complains about being his substandard moulding which made him famous

This is just Brian slowly transforming into Tingle

Brian Learns How Siphoning Works Through An Act Of Unbelievable Hubris
Now every Unraveled has like a moral lesson plot twist at the end like “The real perfection was inside you all along” and it’s kinda funny.
A far cry from the nihilism of the Kirby episode
Maybe this is a kind of Hero's journey like the one of Kingdom Hearts
Or the mario retirement episode, where the moral lesson was "something is fundamentally wrong with our capitalist society"
I remember when it was just about how hot video game bosses were
Not to mention an important lesson about siphons
Every time I feel even a little sad I come here to see Unraveled videos and leave absolutely destroyed, like shit, literally crying.
I fucking love it.
sometimes I wonder if the conversations between Brian and his coworkers are scripted, or if he just messages them out of nowhere and they have to guess whether it's for an Unraveled or if he's just being weird for non-work-related reasons
every time he said “i STILL had sponsorship money!!” i panicked because i could just imagine the sponsors watching this like “.... a f-feedbag?”
All I know I bought 2 horse feed bags and I don’t own a horse
Just Brian's floating face yelling "I forgot the snacks!" really kills me
I think this might be the best Unraveled because it rides the line of insanity so well that it's descent into madness is believable.
i can't believe polygon hired the substandard molding guy
Most of the Unraveled videos make me anxious but when he said "there are tons of liquid-cooled computers out there" i felt my heart drop out of my ass
What you said is extremely valid but the sentence "i felt my heart drop out of my ass" may just be the funniest thing I've ever read
"I AM UNSTOPPABLE!" "Brian!" "sorry"
Here's a game: take a shot every time he says " kill 2 birds with one stone" you'll be dead in 10 minutes
I haven’t laughed so hard in ages. Thank you. When he came out in the green screen suit a lost it for a good, solid minute.
I feel like the folks at valorant are watching him go mad with sponser money like, "....we made a mistake."
...or “this was the right decision.”
I hope they take this as the great thing it is, and are encouraged to throw mORE at him
Are you kidding, I'm so much more interested in Valorant now
