“Kika Live Trau Dich 2010” – Week 1 (German) Mar 29, 2020 at 6:49pm

Quote

Post by tech7 on Mar 29, 2020 at 6:49pm

“Kika Live Trau Dich 2010” was a reality television show from Germany, broadcasted in August 2010, where participants did water/underwater-related challenges such as diving with one shared oxygen supply for two participants or jumping off 10 metres.

The teams (two participants per team) who performed the worst did disqualify.

The show was rebroadcasted in 2011 as “highlight of the preceeding year”, but lost ever since.

The second week of the challenge has been preserved on YouTube (search) (playlist). But the entire first week appears nowhere to be found.

All of the Kids choice award shows are lost, I’ve tried looking for a very long time and have never been able to find rips anywhere. Everything is missing, including award speeches, sliming, pretty much everything besides some bumpers here and there. Are they locked in a vault? Disappeared?? How could they all just slip like this?

It existed since 1997? Wow.

I watched the 2012, 2013 and 2014 broadcasts.

The 2012 one was by far more epic than the 2013 one. The 2013 one was just a very long WatchMojo video.

I originally recorded the 2012 to 2015 broadcasts on a Telekom Entertain Media Receiver 303 device, but that device has three problems:

* Zero data portability (the USB port is practically nothing beyond a 0.5 Ampère charger)
* Proprietary recording format (similarly to that very old Olympia Memo 99 voice recorder)
* Planned software obsolescence since April 2019 (device no longer useable).

But I remember that epic scene with the 90-second countdown when Will Smith climbed down a rope from a helicopter onto the building's roof and then climbed into the stadium.

2016 YouTube video with 1 emoji in title but MM's of views. Dec 14, 2019 at 11:44pm

Quote

Post by tech7 on Dec 14, 2019 at 11:44pm

In 2016, someone sent a YouTube video to me.

As far as I can remember, it only had a single emoji in its title, and maybe “…” or “. . . .” after it.

I can not remember the video contents, but what I do remember:

It probably was shorter than 10 seconds.
It had either millions or tens of millions of views (7 or 8-digit view count), of which the latter is more likely.
The view count likely started with the digit 6 in 2016 (i.e. 6.###.### or 6#.###.### views).
It might or might not anymore be online currently. Even if it isn't, please still help finding traces of it (e.g. Wayback Machine captures).
It's possible that I found it through a playlist.

The memory of that video popped into my mind yesterday out of nowhere.

“7 blue ticks” (2014 parody video about WhatsApp) Oct 31, 2019 at 3:53pm

Post by tech7 on Oct 31, 2019 at 3:53pm

In 2014, there was a video on YouTube about “7 blue ticks” on WhatsApp.

Due to WhatsApp's controversial decision to add the read receipt (2 blue ticks) feature in 2014, someone reacted by creating a parody with 7 blue ticks (✓✓✓✓✓✓✓) instead of 2 blue ticks, and those had some funny meanings.

As far as I can remember, after that, there came two red ticks (“✓✓”) that also had some funny meanings.

I can no longer find that video, and I don't know who created it.

Does anyone remember that video?

YouTube AutoShare replacement? Oct 31, 2019 at 3:48pm

Quote

Post by tech7 on Oct 31, 2019 at 3:48pm

Due to the loss of YouTube AutoShare in January 2019, that automatically tweeted videos one uploaded, liked and added to a playlist, lost YouTube videos are much harder to track down.

The entire Twitter community hated that decision, but as always, YouTube doesn't give the slightest damn when removing features.

But is there a retrofittable replacement for it?

3D “I'm back” intro template? Oct 26, 2019 at 10:37pm

Quote

Post by tech7 on Oct 26, 2019 at 10:37pm

There is more to add:

Uploader's name at that time: MineconGamerHD.
The music was similar to Mike Williams – Candy (at 1:22).
At the beginning, there was a voice whispering “I'm back”. At the same moment, 2D text “I'm back” appears at the bottom, which is gone after less than a second.
Length: 13 seconds.

I wish I had downloaded that, but the comments are still archived.

Hello there.

Here is a lost media of not that much significance, so this is the correct place. Maybe someone has a clue.

These screenshots are from an “I'm back” intro, which was probably from a template, but I can no longer find its original source.

* pbs.twimg.com/media/EEDZK9OW4AA-ezt?format=jpg

Original video URL: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lrtp6b-g1o

I could not find the original template.

Lost Samsung Galaxy S5 commercial from their Instagram page. Sep 15, 2019 at 11:09pm

Quote

Post by tech7 on Sep 15, 2019 at 11:09pm

Hello.
This is my first post. If I do anything wrong, please let me know.

In 2014, Samsung posted an video on their Instagram page to advertise their water resistance.
Original URL:

But Samsung has unfortunately erased all posts older than 2016 from their Instagram page.

Contents:
It is raining outside.

Someone else put a miniature umbrella on the top of their non-water-resistant mobile phone to protect it from the rain.

Then a woman (likely with a yellow jacket) standing next to her takes out her Galaxy S5 (a white one, as far as I can remember) and simply takes a photo.

At the end, there was a text similar to “there is an easier way to keep water out of your phone”.

There were no voices in the background, only this music: (if anyone can interpret this): 1 - 1230 - 0121 - (-1)01 - 3 - 2.
I don't know the name of that music.

Does anyone remember that video? And does anyone maybe have a copy of it?
