What the Hell did I Just Watch? - Teletubbies.wmv

You will not find hyper realistic blood, gouging of eyes, suicide or evil dolls popping out of the screen and killing you in this. If you are then you're at the wrong place.

So I was browsing through Reddit and spending far too much time on there. I saw a lot of funny memes and read a bunch of stuff about video games. I later went to the Pokémon subreddits as I was and still am a fairly big Pokémon fan and player. I noticed someone linking to a Pokémon editor which enabled you to send any Pokémon to some of the older games. I had seen all this stuff before but it made me curious. I wondered whether it was possible with the new games. I did a quick google search and at a glance it seemed that it was. I pressed the first and the most seemingly legit option to something I did not really want. My first reaction was 'OH CRAP!' as it redirected me to a hard-core pornography site which gave me virus. Fortunately my anti-virus kicked in and left something strange on my computer.

The first thing was a permission to open program tab, which you get when you download any program, for some fake anti-virus program or VLC or something generic like that. I obviously clicked 'no' as no-one wants that crap on their computer. The second thing intrigued me however. It was a WinRAR file which when opened revealed a single file. This single file was called teletubbies with, I'm not lying here, the file extension '.whatthehell'. I knew perfectly well that a '.whatthehell' file didn't exist and something called 'teletubbies.whatthehell' is even stranger. So I quickly put it on a USB stick and did a system restore to get rid of any crap put on my computer.

I popped the USB stick back in once the system restore was over and opened it in notepad to the sight of gibberish like when you open a picture or video in notepad. After a few deduction skills and some helpful online translators I was able to find out that the file was actually in the '.wmv' format. I changed the file extension and opened it up. I assumed that it would be nothing interesting. The title was 'teletubbies' after all. The video was about eight minutes long and the first five minutes was literally just an episode of Teletubbies. I did stuff while watching I was so bored. I watched Teletubbies as a kid but I couldn't care less for watching it. It was when it hit about 5 minutes things got interesting.

It turned into a YouTube poop remix style, similar to the ones made out of SpongeBob or the terrible Legend of Zelda TV show except with Teletubbies. They jumped around in random places and it had been edited so the narrator said expletives that actually made me laugh. One of my favourite lines that I remember was 'Go kill yourself Teletubbies I need more sex!' I thought that was actually pretty funny to hear from such a young kids TV show.

What followed wasn't funny. About 6 and a half minutes into the eight minute video strange things started to happen. The background got darker and the faces of the Teletubbies became meaner. Suddenly the purple one (I think his name I Tinky Winky?) vomited blood. But not regular 'hyper-realistic' blood that you find in these stories but red fabric as if it was actually from a Teletubby. Then it cut to a clip of a Teletubby with a knife walking up to another Teletubby. I turned my computer off at that point because I actually had some common sense. I chucked away the USB stick with the file on and did a system restore again to make sure it didn't give me a virus. (I know wmv files don't give you viruses but I was just being safe.)

As you can tell, an evil Teletubby didn't come out the computer and murder me nor did I gouge my eyes out or commit suicide. I am writing this of course. I am just slightly disturbed by what I saw. I wonder what sick minded freak thought that would be funny; having said that, you can see some sick messed up crap on the internet.

I don't really know how to end this. The video may be on some torrent site somewhere if you really want to watch it.

I guess that was my experience with 'teletubbies.whatthehell' or 'teletubbies.wmv' or whatever. Thanks for acknowledging the existence of this. I'll see you in another post.
