Takeaways: 1.) I think the audio of the Vrillon speech is real. Why would the reproduction recreate the voice becoming inaudible due to interference? 2.) “Your love is fading” is a reference to the Temptations song “I’m Losing You”, further evidenced by Max holding the Pepsi can like a microphone. 3.) The jump cut in the second Max Headroom broadcast shows that it wasn’t a live performance, but a recorded skit that had been filmed at an earlier time.

This is just a theory floating around though, and I don't expect we'll ever find out.

I haven't heard people suspecting that the other person in the Max Headroom incident is a child before. I think that's extremely unlikely. It seems to me that there were two people involved in it: the guy as Max, and the person who was operating the moving background (seems like a simple pulley system) - which is completely motionless when she's on-screen. That, plus her movements not seeming at all like a child; I think it's safe to say that they're an adult and whoever started the rumour just wanted to make the story sound creepier.

The thing about the Max Headroom incident, is that it's freaky from the outset yet gets even more disturbing the deeper you look into it. With the likes of Captain Midnight and the Southern TV interruption, there's ultimately a point to them. Sometimes to make a serious point, other times to stage some sort of hoax threat. And that's understandable. But with Max Headroom, the randomness of it is just so unsettling. It wouldn't be of much, if any, concern today, if someone made it and put it on KZread. Just a jackass trying to creep people out, no big deal. But the fact that someone went to so much trouble, the effort to achieve it would have been very significant, to broadcast something so bizarre, is really odd. In a way, I get the impression that whoever was responsible did not really intend it to be freaky. But it's truly a disturbing incident. It's the fact that they made no discernable point. They just did it. It raises so many questions, and has provided next to no answers.

In the 1980’s the cable tv company here had a tower with receiving antenna’s for receiving the tv signals from neighboring countries. This tower was installed close to a city. At midnight these tv stations stopped transmitting. So, a little tv transmitter of a few watt’s and a yagi was enough to get a signal on the cable via the cable receiving antenna. Several ‘nature’ films where shown after midnight.. But after a few weeks the cable company did put a timer on there receivers to block the signal after midnight.

That only works the first time. The first Max Headroom incident was seen as a test run before they hit their actual target. The network quickly overpowered the pirate signal after just a few moments. They then aimed their transmitter towards the intended target and knew the minimum amount of power they had to throw behind it to overpower the legit signal. During this time the network was completely aware shit was going on and kept trying to overpower the pirate signal by increasing the power. The pirates did the same. At this point it wasn't simply a yagi and a few watts, they were dealing with professional broadcast equipment at that point which is why many people suspected it was an inside job with a tech who worked at the station, possibly with a grudge.

The EAS hijack in 2013 is directly influenced by a song by Anthrax called “fight em till you cant” released 2 years before the incident.

The zombie hijacking from 2013 uses audio from an Anthrax song “Fight ‘em til you can’t.” That plays at the intro of the song.

I was waiting for it and it STILL got me!

Some of those incidents are legendary

I was actually watching TV with my mom when the zombie one came up. We were laughing so hard. Good times.

Great video this mate never thought of watching something like this but it peaked keep at it mate! Also a very weird one, do you remember in the mid to late 2000’s maybe 2011-12 when all the landlines in the UK went very strange and you could connect to other peoples calls and everyone’s phones were ringing none stop for about 3 days? Or was that only local? Been playing on my mind for years I just want to see if I’m loosing it hahahah

Good video mate!! Enjoyed it

I should not be watching this at one in the morning

I am right now. I find max headroom freaking stupid though, might be impossible to reoccur for digital tv signals nowadays. But the HBO captain midnight, that was my favorite one of the whole video, so simple yet amazing!

i like your voice! time to binge every single one of your videos

I did not expect to see you here

Although Max Headroom appeared in films and TV series in the 1980's, the character is best remembered for the Chicago video hijack.

the person who did the Vrillon incident just wanted world peace.

Thank you for an excellent documentary l had heard of the max headroom incident but not the others take care😊

“If you get scared easily this program is not for you” “Yeah I will totally be ok”

Gave me a mini heart attack, this is for faint of heart

"He's just some jackass saying whatever comes to mind" "AHHHHHH" 💀

Well made! GGs Adam.

0:38 The incongruity between a cultist and a standard "No Swimming" sign struck me as very silly. I love it!

The alien intrusion one always cracks me up. Idk why. Its just so far out of the realm of normal that it makes me laugh

Excellent and well done video!
