This film is not about childhood...
It's about adulthood.
Brilliant.


powerful stuff. I personally like art that makes me uncomfortable, but I understand how one could be put off by this. The symbolism is thought provoking.


congrats on getting the deal with adultswim!  it's great to see an artist whose work I've appreciated for quite a while making it big :)


Moral of this video is too never trust a slide

@SOZZYLAND don't talk about that boy's mother like that

it's not the Slide he Shouldn't trust. it was his mom for putting Him on The Slide..


And then the friction lights the poor bastard on fire.


And that's how we sent the first kid to the 4th dimension


Anyone else reminded of The Jaunt by Steven King? This is basically what happens to a kid, it's a great short story


my life story . did i ever tell you about the time i went through a wall? the color dots made it possible. they come out of my finger tips. i was like....4 or 5


For me it means that when we are a child we enjoy thing for some time and then stop and want to grow, for some reason we dont like the same things we used to like as much, but we can't really control it, when we are a child.


sadly had my fit of near death laughter today<br>but I feel ya

but I feel ya


This is what happens when you don't let go of your childhood.


And that's where babies come from. :3 LOL!


Am i missing something? Like a metaphor. Or a bigger picture? 🤔

Maybe "Accomplished dreams can be torturs"  ??


why did this become unlisted? took me a while to find this again.


I can't wait to read the angry comments.


the image of a boy being tortured until he disintegrates gives me a very visceral feeling of hatred for whoever made this. which is weird cuz i really like david rielly's low-poly black comedy style but, i'm too emotional to handle this short film. i don't like it.

@Bleenderhead I WANT TO GET OFF MR. BONES' WILD RIDE.

I have a very visceral (whatever the fuck that means) feeling against people who say cuz, because they are too lazy to say because. And who the fuck says visceral and cuz in one sentence. >.<

@Bleenderhead but that's not what you said... you said the internet. and even if you did just mean youtube and forums... i met a lot of my best online friends thru forums... and i love youtube... Aren't i allowed to have an opinion on things? I'm not saying this video should be banned, all i was originally saying was my own personal opinion and experiences with the video... I ended with "i don't like it" because that's the takeaway from my initial post: i'm saying i don't like it! And you guys are acting like i'm not allowed to not like something and that i should avoid youtube and all forums... Just because the REASON i didn't like it was emotional and based on my own personal flaws doesn't mean that my opinion isn't valid...

I suppose now you're going to say that my original post WAS insinuating that i wanted the video removed... and all i can say to that is it's not true.

@UncleBibby47 No, it's more like telling them to stay out of bars. Meaning Youtube, and in particular (if comments offend you too), public forums, except maybe Tumblr.

@Abradolf Lincler<br>you guys are just trolling me at this point. OF COURSE it should be OBVIOUS that telling someone to never again use the internet is a horrible thing to say. The Internet is so ingrained in everything we do these days, that telling me to avoid it just because i'm easily freaked out is like telling a alcoholic to avoid living in universes that have alcohol.

@UncleBibby47 I would say,"You're correct"

If somebody told you, "maybe the Internet isn't the place for you eh?" how would you feel?

Our love is stronger than a golden banana.

@freelancedancepants<br>ok. nice donkey kong avatar by the way.

@UncleBibby47 Well then A: I can respect how some things just bother you personally, everyone gets a bad feelings from looking at something and its different for everybody. However, i and others have a hard time taking this seriously because of the exaggeration of it, i mean he is like sliding so fast he is going into another dimension. If it does make you uncomfortable regardless, i understand. I wouldn't understand labeling it as crossing a line though.

@freelancedancepants<br>look, there were some things in External world that bothered me too okay. i just didn't think it was worth mentioning. All i'm saying is, I personally have trouble watching this film. i can still appreciate the work that went into it. In fact, the fact that the voice acting is so damn good is part of why i have trouble with it. it's really convincing.

How the hell does this cross the line over the fuckin scene in external world where the guy is taking a bath in the blood of a girl that just committed suicide? REALLY PEOPLE?

"Boohoo who cares" ? you guys sounds like Dr Steve Brule


Explanation:

The Slide is life.
the Bottom is Death
and its the Same Routine
until you hit the Bottom.
