Bro hit 31 and started experiencing fear again.
in one of these jumpscares we might lose you, old man. your heart isn't what it used to be.
dude the tv jump scare was so clever I loved that one.
Bro is actually built different, him getting startled is more of a “catches his breath”😭 Bro ain’t even move😭
He is so immune to being scared, I never even noticed the part where he was “startled”.
The fact Charlie grew up scared of having the most rare diseases known to man, thought there was a bat in the cinema that bit him and gave him rabies, is deathly afraid of cockroaches and flying… yet is virtually immune to getting scared or startled by horror games/movies
I like how the guy always takes pills with absolutely no water. Homie just tanks like 6 pills all in one go with no water or anything to wash it down. What a chad
3:11 this is the part he was referring to when he said the game scared him
Whoever made this really does have a good eye for horror. I wasn't shitting my pants but i definitely was startled and laughed many times. This is well done.
12:28 The moment Charlie turned into Heisenberg. He is the one who knocks.
