[Easter Egg] YouTube Snake videogame

[jp-30]

1. Go to a youtube clip, for example: Crawlin' King Snake (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28jlr_8NJx4)
2. Pause the clip as it loads (once the clip is fully loaded, the easter egg may not appear)
3. You may need to click on the movie once to 'focus' it
4. Press left and up arrows on your keyboard simultaneously (it can take a few tries to trigger it)
5. A snake you control with the arrows will appear
6. Eat the flashing dot and avoid yourself as you grow (and avoid the clip edges)
7. Hit space to restart the video as you play if the clip is still paused
8. Put your junk in the box (optional)

Interesting. I just tried it, and it works.

[SillyStell]

Wow! For a second I thought it wasn't going to work but I'll be damned it does XD

[Fealiks]

Wow, how long has this been about?

Dang, this is really cool and clever. Never thought youtube would something like that.

Does it work on other videos, though? The one you suggested works great, but when I tried it with other youtube videos I got nada.

Awesome!

[BoneFreak]

At first it didn't work for me because i kept pressing down and up -_-

It probably does if that video uses the newest version of the YouTube video viewer. Unfortunately, it is somewhat hard to find those.

As power 46 said, it works on all newer videos, such as this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBMnpgkvmIA).

Wow, how cool!?

Activates easier if you press and hold left and up arrow though.

It does work, honestly. Better if you just hold them down til it appears then press down frantically to avoid crashing straight into the edge.

Wow this is pretty cool. Nice find.

It's actually the UP and RIGHT arrow keys for me, not left.

[jp-30]

It may just be any 2 arrows simultaneously. Another site instructs using Up & Down arrows.

[TomPravetz]

Left-right works too. Could be any two.
