The Restaurant at the End of the World [ The Road ASMR Parody ]

- It's another night in the underground bunker as Papa tries his best to entertain his son (you, the viewer) in this harsh and unforgiving new world.
If you don't know what ASMR is, check the bottom of this description for an explanation.
This parody is based on the film The Road, a favorite and Top 10 film of all time for me. The film is based on Cormac McCarthy's Pulitzer Prize winning novel of the same name.
I thought I would take a more whimsical (for the most part) approach rather than regurgitate what one might expect, by recreating and drawing out one of the more memorable scenes from the film that I felt had ASMR potential. I missed a couple of character nuances, such as the father coughing occasionally.
I hope you enjoy, especially if you are a fan of the film and/or the book.

What is ASMR?
To me, ASMR is 2 things: a sensation and a medium (like music for example).
The sensation itself (ASMR) stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current (non-scientific) name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant.
ASMR videos, the medium, are not only meant to help induce the sensation or "tingles" in the viewer, but also help provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer. They often help those dealing with anxiety, stress, headaches, insomnia, mental health issues, concentrating, studying and more. It is quite therapeutic, for both the creator and recipient, which is not that much different than the mediums of music and painting, for example.
Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect. - Zábava

I know this is a post apocalyptic asmr but it kinda looks like a broken man making his first meal after divorce or some sort of tragedy
true hahahaha
Or a broke college student
Toy Shaint so true lmfao
Will 'n Co lmfao
If you know anything about the road this is somewhat true
"Tonight, we have the fines cuisine the world has ever seen."
*looks at Oreo's*
Seems about right.
You know you're eating at the right place if you see Oreos.
Yes, Oreos are among the best of cuisine. And there is nothing you can do about it.
+Someguyontheinterwebz this is true my friend this is true 👍
Devin Pohl seems legit👌💯
*dips Oreo in Jack Daniel's* Damn Straight.
“It’s practically radiation free”
Theres a key word in there that i am missing
What?
The man said it's practically free and who am i to say no to an almost free meal?
Well you’re not wrong
ITS FREE
Lol ROBLOX It's FREE and it's also NOT FREE!!!!
You mean radiation?
“Dear People,
thank you.”
this prayer is on another level
XD
Haha so true
It's a reference to the bunker scene in "the road" movie.
This is like what a college student would serve if he ran a resturaunt.
Don't forget the ramen noodles.
jack beason and those ice cube sandwiches
but then The bread would get soggy
LMAO, it doesn't matter all of the wheat is still there.

Ok tell em why I was scrolling through the comments with the video on and I came across this comment RIGHT AS HE SAID IT
"Dear people... thank you."
this man can make the heaviest of athiest bow to any god
It's a reference to the road movie. The father and son just found a bunker with full of canned food and he said a prayer to the people who stacked it.
@@vincentdeschatelets1359 hahahahah thats kinda funny
The rebirth of belief in one man...
This restaurant is the equivalent of a McDonald's ad

"The finest fresh caught canned boar"
*looks at can of spam*
Roze Z exactly man
Deathwatch2571 tastes like salted beef
Deathwatch2571 if you ever try it, I would highly recommend frying it with sunny side up eggs (that's my favorite way to eat it) and Sam is right it tastes like salty beef, really, salty beef..
If you ever try it...go for the low sodium variant or if you want one of the specialty flavors...eat it in small quantities for obvious reasons.
Roze Z jack Daniels time to get drunk
God damn this turned from 'welcome to our post apocalyptic restraunt enjoy your meal, to my wife ran away leaving us alone at the end of the world and I'm all depressed now real quick.
This is The Road, what did you expect?
Its not actually boar.

Gonna be honest, was expecting a Hitchhiker's themed roleplay at first. Then I realised I misread the title, and was still not dissapointed
A hitchhiker's rp would be amazing though.
+1 on that, a Douglas Adams style roleplay would indeed be amazing

I love how you turned this into a sad story of a father and his son trying to stay sane during the post-apocalyptic times and trying to make the best out of the situation
“Dumb as a bag of rocks.”
What a beautifully delivered line.
Thought it said "at the end of the UNIVERSE," and I got excited for a Hitchhiker's Guide parody
Girt same. Glad I wasn't the only one
Girt same here
me aswell
Girt yep
way to man up and eat that spam
Yeah, Spam doesn't taste bad to me but that's only because it's insanely salty....
Patton44 (Glo) they have jalapeno spam that is bomb
Patton44 (Glo) Spam Lite actually tastes less like salt and more like some form of meat substance
Ricardo Long when you forgot the ñ I read that in my brain as ju-lap-ano

How would that work?
+Dylan Le Lerre commercials would be quieter and the colors would be darker kind of like minimum brightness but also yellowish because yellow calms the brain because of evolution and sunsets and such also loud noise patterns in videos would be toned down
How would it work with time zones though? Russia would have to have 6 differant youtubes, america 3. And what if people work night shifts?

I love him so much! It's hard to sleep when you're dying laughing at his reaction to the spam about halfway through.
This was the first ephemeral rift vid I ever watched, I’m so happy a clicked on that video all those years ago
My parents always cooked spam. I always thought it was canned raw.
Plot twist: it actually is
@@randomfactsthatdontmatter3466 yeah, they cook it in the can in order to keep it good for longer. It's crazy bc they have almost no preservatives (assuming were talking Spam branded spam) and it's not some weird mystery meat, but pork shoulder
"dear people. Thank you". Holy shit. I basically woke myself up laughing.
We almost had it too. WAKE UP YOU'RE IN A COMA.
Knight Solaire use I funny I assume?
Aden Anthony No. Just dream about killing myself a lot.
Knight Solaire so that's a yes?

Edward Brittain really? I’ve personally never tried it, just because of how revolting it looks/smells. What does it taste like?
Edward Brittain yes I agree but I especially love fried spam
@Edward Brittain I lived in Hawaii and they had spam musubi at every gas station. They would cook a piece of spam, put it on a rice block, then wrap it with seaweed. It's a really tasty on-the-go snack! Great with wasabi or sriracha sauce.
@@naughtymelon6712 spam just tastes like a saltier ham to me, and a softer texture. But fried spam with baked beans is delicious.
@@naughtymelon6712 it’s better cooked. Although I’ve personally never ate spam raw.

how can i fall asleep to this when i can't stop CRYING

I’m just sad that the fact he ate spam without cooking it
It’s already cooked out the can
Most of pre-made food are ready to eat
@Jackson Siskow i find spam mostly unappetizing. Lmao
Never thought I'd hear "Let's get those beans opened up" whispered .

Restaurant at the End of the Universe next please
So this be how we gonna live in the corona outbreak
This aged well
The road was so tragic and eerie... The one time an apocalyptic world didn't seem appealing or adventurous.
spartan113ish I felt that the road painted a more realistic picture on what post apocalyptic life would be like than most other films/books.
True. It just didn't seem like the kind of danger that could be fun.
Rome is falling what are you talking about?! The total stockpile of nukes across the world, every bomb and missile, have enough power to destroy civilization several times over

Cooking channels during quarantine:
(Other than Mythical kitchen, Josh has that shit on lockdown)
You're weird
I like how he describes each food the same way someone talks about themselves on a resume
him describing the food is like me presenting a project tbh
The title reminds me of "The Diner At The End Of The Galaxy" (Second book in The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy series)
Is that what it's called where you live? The copy I read was The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
That's what it's called for me, yes. Unless your using sarcasm.
Online Gamer No I'm not I was genuinely curious.
Hey, Don't Panic (references) I was curious as well since most people can be cunts in comment sections (not saying you are one) just taking my chances is all, haha
Online Gamer So what country *do* you live in?
You did a very good job with the back and forth cuts Uncle E. Thanks as always for the tingles.
Man I watched this video when it first came out seeing again three years later it still amazes me that in less then an hour rift has not only a plot for you and his character but for the world your stuck in then with how quickly YOU get to know that character and watch them in this case deteriorate before you is awsome and good sir I applaud your efforts to help us relax👏👏👏
You keep using that word, "fresh." I don't think it means what you think it means.

He doesn't stare at the camera when eating
And other points
He is just... amazing
Having read and seen The Road for my Sci Fi class in college, this makes this video both better and more depressing for me
Goddamn we are getting blessed this week. A video a day. How generous of you Uncle E.
There is something about the light , the quality both of audio and video,your face, voice. They create so much peace , it is amazing .
You are a genius of asmr :)
I read the book this is based on and that makes this video so interestingly somber. The Man is just trying to make his son smile when the world is nothing but ash.
He’s about three years too early
I don't know why, but I really, really enjoyed this video. Particularly the earlier parts.
