WoW Red Shirt Guy Gets Auto-Tuned

This article is over 14 years old and may contain outdated information

The World of Warcraft lore nerd who schooled Blizzard mastermind Chris Metzen at BlizzCon 2010 has made his big break into the music biz.

When a certain young Warcraft fan stepped up to the mic at BlizzCon 2010 to ask a question of Blizzard’s Vice President of Creative Development Chris Metzen regarding the whereabouts of a certain character, he probably wasn’t expecting to become quite so famous. The video in question now has over three million views, and he has been added into the game as a NPC.

Now, as has become increasingly inevitable with funny videos on YouTube, he has his very own auto-tuned remix. We all knew this was going to happen, people, don’t pretend you didn’t.

That said, it’s actually a rather catchy tune, if not on the level of YouTube hits like Double Rainbow and Bed Intruder. It’s more of a “trance remix” than a full-fledged musical number, really.

You can’t help but admire the enthusiasm with which he proclaims, “No, he survived!” Yes, Red Shirt Guy. Falstad did survive in a way, and he lives on in the hearts of all of us.

Or maybe he actually survived and was put back in the game as an NPC. There’s that, too.
