I just looked for the obvious "flash" between cuts and figured there was a frame hidden there.

I used the super advanced technique of tapping the spacebar rapidly twice (quick play, pause) to advance approximately frame by frame.

You could Google up ways to get at the flv from YouTube and look at the video in a some nice video player that has frame by frame advance.

I downloaded the video and used FLV viewer but all I saw were "help" twice b/c it wasn't moving between frames one at a time. Confused

All I've been able to see in the frames is "I need help" split up, the word "help" repeated a few more times along with one frame that appears to say "help me please" in the top corner.

For what it's worth I used this site:
http://www.yooouuutuuube.com/
It breaks it down into frames, but there's no option to pause/slow it down, so I couldn't grab screens to post here. Sad I'm at work so I'm really not that much help, but there you have it.

FWIW, if you click the show video button, there's a pause control. You can also play around with zooming in/out.

Nice tool BTW!

A friend of mine got followed on twitter so I came here to read up on what was happening. Here are the images I grabbed out of the video...

The only thing I can think of would be this excerpt from Wikipedia (I know, reliable source, right?):

Wiki wrote:
In the Finnish epic Kalevala, a swan lives in the Tuoni river located in Tuonela, the underworld realm of the dead. According to the story, whoever killed a swan would perish as well.


It's the only "dark" or "shadowy" connection to swans I can think of- aside from Greek mythology, where Zeus raped Leda while in the form of a swan.

I don't think either of these are really relevant, however...

I got the follow too. Twitter definitely seems to be the new ARG medium. Unfortunately with all the Bot/Spam followers I get, I tend to miss the start of new games. Glad I saw this one early on. Smile

Heh, you weren't the only one. I got it too and ignored it. Guess I'll check it out now. Hope it's not too late.
