“It Changed Me Forever” – Youtuber Markiplier and CrankGamePlay Share Their Deepest Secrets About Unus Annus With This Unique Simultaneous Video

YouTubers Markiplier and CrankGamePlay shared their true feeling and secrets about their one-of-a-kind venture, Unus Annus. Unus Annus was an innovation on YouTube that no one had ever imagined could be possible. The sheer size of the project and its impact still influence the world-famous content creators Mark and Ethan. 

Back on November 13, 2019, Mark Fischbach, aka Markiplier, and Ethan Nestor-Darling aka CrankGamePlay created a YouTuber channel called Unus Annus. On the channel, Ethan represented the “Unus,” while Mark represented the “Annus” persona. Together, they created a variety of content for the channel. 

Unus Annus was very successful and dear to the fans but still, it has no traces on the internet anymore. As that was the condition of the project. Mark and Ethan had created this channel just to delete it after a year. This venture was an ode to “Memento mori,” the impermanence of things.

After two years, since Unus Annus was deleted, Mark and Ethan came together to reflect on their journey of Memento mori. They upload a video on both of their channels. These videos are unique, as they can’t be complete without the other, just like Unus Annus. 

Markiplier and CrankGamePlay share what Unus Annus meant to them

On November 13, 2022, marking the two-year anniversary of the deletion of Unus Annus, Mark and Ethan uploaded a video on their respective channels. These videos are about their conversation on Unus Annus. Each one of them features one side of the conversation. So one has to play two of them together (simultaneously in different windows) in order to follow the conversation.

In the conversation, both of them shed light on how much the channel meant to them, and how it still affects their day-to-day life. The ever-present dread of the channel being deleted made them appreciate every single moment on the Unus Annus. This, in the term, gave them a new perspective and appreciation of life itself. 

Ethan stated that the channel has “Changed him forever.” Working on a cause that will never stay there forever taught him perseverance without worrying about the outcome. On the other hand, Mark acknowledged the pain that came from erasing a thing that they worked so hard for. He shared how he resolved to humor and inside jokes about his pain about Unus Annus. 

After this long conversation about such a moving subject, sharing their deepest thoughts with each other and their followers, Mark and Ethan ended the video on a happy note. By eating an ice pop together in front of a campfire.
