Just let me in. We can fix this. Together.

• There was CG smoke for the bomb
• The last shot was running after the bomb goes off, filmed during the day
• Many cursed images
• (0:56 - Guns Blazing) November 5th = gunpowder treason & plot (a reference)
• Ethan is the one yelling during the run
• Helicopter/Car was filmed in a place formerly known as Spiderwoods (spiders, snakes, and bugs everywhere)
• Mark's patented method to get rid of snakes is to tell them to fuck off
• There was big black snake near the library
• Chica snore-grumbles
• Most of the choices were pretty evenly split in the video data
• The guy who owned the field in Helicopter/Car also owned the helicopter
• It was hard to get the cameraman to know that the camera is an interacting character
• They filmed up to 10 pages a day
• Prison was the first 2 days of shooting, as well as the part with the most characters/extras (12 people)
• Mick gets typecasted in roles of authority
• The Prison location is a functioning mental hospital
• John was a Prisoner, first mate, and is a realtor IRL
• There is no "why" to recording this to keep a broad audience and have fun after Mark was in a depression and made WKM
• The Gregory Brothers / Schmoyoho made 2 renditions of I Don't Wanna Be Free (which is on Apple/iTunes/Spotify)
• The musical was a production/recording nightmare on the 2nd day
• They had 20 minutes max. to learn each segment; they had a choreographer helping them learn the dances
• The original vocals didn't have the accent
• Mark had to do the vocals, acting, blocking, etc. in 30 mins
• Mick was supposed to cross frame during the top-hats-part, but they had already recorded it; the producers weren't comfortable telling Mark "no" yet, so they had Amy do it
• The smashed bricks were styrofoam; Mark was typed to a rope that was pulled
• The director of photography was Phillip J Roy; he took a pay cut to work on this project
• Yancy's sleeve tattoo is the whole map again
• Yancy's tattoos are Tiny Box Tim and Mark/Dark across his knuckles; those were Makeup's ideas
• The Musical was only 1/4 of a recording day
• There was 3 work weeks of shooting (15 days)
• Day By Dave made a remix
• Yancy was named "Prison Mark" until the fight scene started to be made in post-production, where he needed a name; Mark liked Yancy and Amy was very against it originally
• Yancy killed both of his parents; Mark knew people were gonna fall in love with him anyway
• "Yancy stans, go, march on"
• Yancy has an emoji bandaid
• Heapass (canonically) makes an appearance in Thanks and also Yes Please; he had "Heapass" on a cast, but it was on the wrong side from the camera
• Holt Boggs (the cell guard) is an amazing man; he was overqualified ("soft hands")
• The cell was in a green-screen soundstage, so there was more improve
• Yancy was supposed to be hidden in the ceiling or beside the bed, but under the bed turned out better; he's hidden under the bed the whole scene
• The Red Gemini was the camera that they used for this project
• Mark just runs off frame in Thanks and also Yes Please
• The audio-only part was very convenient for filming and fitting for a 1st-person perspective
• Yancy's talk at the gate was Mark real-acting & the late shot of the 1st day of filming, which made all of them realize that the project could actually work
• Yancy WANTS to be in prison; he knows all the ways out - he'd leave if he wanted to
• The items in the box are more representational achievements
• Mark needs our help to promote AHWM, through liking the video(s), commenting good things, and spreading the project; the performance of this dictates the ability to make another similar project
• Mark worked for FREE for 5 months, taking no cut of the budget for himself
• "Yancy is just Prison Mark with amnesia" "There could be a time-skip there; it could work"
• Robert Rex, "a god walking amongst mere morals;" has always wearing the same thing; Mark didn't know that he was going to do different accents
• Amy is the hand with the feather-duster
• The Warden's desk moves into the hallway after a smash-cut
• Mick's line had to be rewritten so it can be ambiguous; you can only tell if you were looking
• The Warden embodies "big strong hands," something Mark writes into dialogue a lot (along with "trust you me"); everytime he touches something it cracks (his desk, Yancy's shoulder)
• Pulling stuff from behind Mark's back was on-the-spot
• The dirt joke was a prop-person and Mark throwing buckets
• Mark helped Holt Boggs make a short video
• HOLT BOGGS
• The truck in Prison was a one-take-wonder; they actually bashed the truck through the wall in a such a cartoony, perfect way
• The Bob/Wade skit was a reference to Prop Hunt
• Mark comparing the disappointment of people not liking the video to a cup of dirt under the Christmas tree
• The lid to the sewer says "a heist with markiplier"
• The sewer was in an actual sewer treatment plant, which took about a week of filming; some parts were flooded so they couldn't film there; this place was scheduled to be torn down
• Mark forces us to choose the Light Tunnel first
• Cranbersher, GrittySugar, and Lixian collaborated for the Light Tunnel; it was originally going to be live action with a green-screen and a pre-made raft; Cranberser offered when he had a 3-month break from other projects
• Amy notes that Mark did a lot of "falling"
• Mark had to carry a 200 pound man and a heavy camera rig to carry Y/N
• There was poison ivy, snakes, spiders, etc. on the island
• The Game Grumps voiced the aliens; Erin originally was meant to play the Warden & Danny was meant to play one of the guards
• Many roles fluctuated due to scheduling
• Getting abducted is a reference to ADWM ("not again!")
• Mark loves MatPat's scenes and acting (Build a Shelter)
• There were so many mosquitos near the Cave and the actors couldn't put on bug spray because they had to preserve their makeups
• There was a giant hole in the Cave from which grasshoppers rained down
• They were a mile into the cave; they weren't able to staff them for 3 days, so they recorded for 2 days and had fo cut some shots
• The Cave freeze-frame was unscripted; the camera director didn't tell cut and it was too funny
• The Hermit was originally supposed to be Jacksepticeye but scheduling errors were in the way
• Mick was originally supposed to be Crazy Ed
• When the sound-guy didnt have a sound effect, one of them riffed something at the mic and it was modulated to fit as best as possible
• Mark's camera loses signal/battery power
• Mark has done the hot-wire-while-moving in Car before (van videos)
• The blue flash during Car is you from the future/another timeline
• Mark was actually driving the car; someone flashed the blue light so it was a bit dangerous
• Tyler and Ethan make appearances as Zombies
• Tyler actually let Mark hit him with a rock
• There was a dead beaver in the shed during the Zombie Apocalypse
• The Zombie Apocalypse shots were in VERY hot weather
• The barricaded front door but very open back door was intentional humour
• Ethan's zombie handshake was thought up on the spot
• Moe was the man screaming from the fire and zombie attack, making everyone behind the camera laugh
• Rosanna Pansino sings opera & speaks Chinese
• The Scientist had to be broken up (the cuts are in the gunshots)
• 243 is a chemical identification symbol in an actual laboratory, nothing meaningful to the plot
• The code leads to the AHWM website
• What's truly inside the box is the real timeline, which is the team making the project
• The room where the monitor was in (Amy, script manager, etc.) was locked out and no one could see what was going on, only hear it through headsets
• Mark threw 2 dummies (main video, Absolutely Not!)
• Chica likes to climb through the cords underneath Mark's desk
• The true/canon ending is For The Greater Good, which leads to ADWM
• SodaPopIn hasn't really done this before, but he went with it because he was told Mark was nice; he continued even during harsh weather, many planes, and a long take/monologue
• The sandwiches are a callback to ADWM
• The montage endings were inspired by the ones Amy made for ADWM
• There was never any time set aside to get photos for the montages, so they had to continuously get pictures
• Catherine makes an appearance in the Warfstache bit
• Warfstache is just a meta joke > you respond by writing in the comments as a survey, producer Catherine is more powerful than the video-editing, ringing the bell for notifications
• They rented the same place for the Warfstache bit that they used to film all the other previous Warfstache bits
• Dark inserts himself wherever he feels like being
• There is charity (#TeamTrees) merch for each of the egos/Mark characters in this project (including the new ones)
• Edge of Sleep's last episode aired yesterday (as of the stream - 6/11/19)
• A "reverse" charity livestream is happening soon
• The next project(s) are already in the works
• SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT HEIST
• Amy originally wasn't going to work on this project until they went to Texas; she became Creative Producer once Mark put himself into too many places
• Iba originally auditioned for the man in the burning truck, but his voice was so good he became the seer/guide
• The project has been "cooking" since May
• The next project would be a completely different project, not a continuation
• SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT HEIST
• Regular uploads start again tomorrow (7/11/19)
