The fact that this video wouldn't reach the same viral status today as it did in the past speaks volumes about the disdain YouTube has towards the very community that lifted it out of the dirt: independent content creators.

Leeroy Jenkins became a “case study” in military war colleges in the US.

It’s a great discussion amongst the military because it shows that no matter how well you plan, plans go wrong.

He looks exactly like how I imagine. He looks like that one friend you just can't get tired off

Video title: What Happened to Leeroy Jenkins?

Last line of the video: "he is most likely working a regular job like everyone else."

Good job.

[hellothere]

He could easily still become a popular twitch streamer at any time

Wrong. The video was staged, but the event was not. When they were wiped by Leeroy, they were not recording, so they decided to stage it again for filming.

Who's gonna be the first to re-create it lol.

Tbh I don't care if the video was fake or not, the fact that they made this video and became viral all from two words, thats quite amazing

One of my favorite wow memories was talking with him a little bit when I rolled a character on his server during vanilla (must've been before the harassment) and he was totally chill and even posed for a couple screenshots with me.

This was all staged?! thanx for ruining my childhood :(

[skylar]

Leeroy was like a father to me. I loved him like a son.

[garrithgill]

So you end the video with a guess, no real fixed mention of what he does.... Good one..

[superwedgie]

So, let me get this right. This video is about where he is now. We watch the entire video only to find out you don't really know where he is now.

[ChristinaMitchell-USA]

OMG, "back in the days of 2005'!" That made me feel so old. My first vid game was Quake 'back in the days of 1997'.

He’s still famous in the Elder Scrolls Online community. We Leeroy Jenkins bosses in vet dungeons 😂
