I could listen to David Hayter narrate a whole documentary all by himself, and in fact I think I need that in my life.

Back in 2017, I sent David Hayter some fan mail.
He sent me back a super nice letter with his autograph. It wasn't a template, he talked about what I wrote in detail and it was great!!
Super nice guy!!

There's something special about David Hayter reading lost documents.

[DctrDRK]

David Hayter will always be the real Solid Snake.

Okay I kinda love the revolver detail though. Looking at it from the perspective that young Ocelot would twirl his revolvers for a comically long time, while with age he learned to tone down his need to make a spectacle of showing off his revolvers

[tilbin]

That heath regeneration animation tidbit was really interesting! I always throught he was rubbing his hand down his face, maybe wiping off the sweat, or trying to steel himself for more work ahead, sort of like "oh man, that was tough, but my job isn't finished yet. I gotta keep going." And that brief moment of respite gave him the strength to go on.

0:10 Oh so THAT’S why he’s the Diaper Chief! He didn’t have enough TP!

Getting to hear Snake say "quiet quitting!" was the highlight of my day. Wonderful job as always, Hayter

[WonderSparkPuppets]

David “PA to Head Writer on X-Men” Hayter is legend

[axelguizar]

imagine a "new Super Mario Bros details - ft. Charles Martinet"

[vladv]

The guy doing the voiceover is pretty good.

[Maesterful]

Metal David you are SNAKE, the man, the myth, the legend 🐍😎

[Jackpot]

Still learning things about this game 25 years later. The 7th shell Vulcan Raven bit I'd never heard before 4:47

[Mr.Smiley_J]

7:01 huh. I always thought he was eating a ration or something but they couldn't animate the item in his hand. It totally looks like he's shoving something invisible into his face and then his health goes up.

[maxderrat]

Things I never knew I wanted: hearing David Hayter say "nuthuts".

Great work as always DYKG! A couple of things here were truly fascinating as a lifelong MGS fan.

The wolves peeing on the box is in the American strategy guides. I also remember on GameFAQs people insisting each other to use the trick for Hard and Extreme difficulty modes.

[Tclans]

Great facts and loved being it narrated by David.
Thanks DYKG!

[NotHeresrsly]

2:49 "Quiet Quitting" - so perfect

[MakopoweredGaming]

I love that there are still things about this game that I didn't know, even almost 30 years later.

Also, amazing that David Hayter is the one narrating this!

[Luukus]

"That TP Guard Tidbit" might be my new favourite David Hayter lines
