Same. I thought I was weird because everyone found things like popping balloons fun except me. I find it scary. Pulling rubber bands scares me too. I'm also scared of irons and electric cookers so I can relate to his fear of ovens lmao. Glad I'm not alone.
when i saw this clip and read your comment i didn’t know who Jerma was and was extremely gullible. Now i’m having a chuckle that i really thought this compact little man could ever suplex more than a fondant shoe
@@sourpuss5951 ik this is late but he is still playing sims 4 with jim, just not the cult really. Last I checked, he had santa as a prisoner, forcing him to sleep outside and collect chicken eggs
Jerma is, I don't even know what word to use, extremely hyper in tandem with being extremy indecisive, and he makes such menial, boring things big deals in a very entertaining and captivating way. Its so bizarre. Its like "what do you think will happen if I crush this tomato with my bare hands right now? I don't want to do it, I know whats gonna happen but I - **tries to crush** no I cant do it, I can't it's- **tries again** why can't I do this? Its a tomato. Why cant I crush it?" **pause** "Okay, I'll crush it this time I promise. Here we go... gonna crush it now... Screw it, here goes nothing" **crushes tomato** "Aww damnit, now I'm covered in tomato."
@@ShrodingersCatgirl He has ADHD? I mean, I kind of assumed that he did, but I didn't want to say anything. I might have it, but I haven't been diagnosed yet. I was supposed to be tested for it a while ago but it never happened.
Fun story time. When I was 5 or 6 I put a giant rubber band on my toes and pulled back with my hands trying to break it, because I'm extremely smart. Naturally the band slipped off my toes and hit me in the left eye, so I had to wear a patch for a week. Jerma must know the pain I've felt.
Just went through this rite a couple of months ago. Guess I was lucky it didn't slice through my palm like a lightsaber through butter, but I was spooked like if it did.
tuning the e string string on my violin is always an absolute nightmare, especially since i’ve snapped it and cut myself on it before. thanks for the tip lmao
So y’know when you’re a fan of a content creator before you’ve watched any of their actual content? Edit: Since I made this comment I started watching Jerma’s content on CZcams.
Well, some of their content includes: a yearly Royal Rumble based on the characters hes created that year, an entire fucking actual fucking carnival where Twitch chat plays the games, a trivia show, and a LIVE ACTION of his Jerma Rumble. It's also one of the single most involved communities you'll ever be in. It's worth it.
I pressed the skip button 4 times and wow, I got “I’m afraid to pull this”, “it’ll scare me” followed by “effort noises” then the shriek of fear. Despite me barely even watching the full video I got the full experience…
Fun fact: The rubber band test is commonly used by psychologists to measure maturity of the patient. Adults will usually hesitate, and ask questions, because they see the consequences: pain and unpredictability of the snapping rubber band. Kids, on the other hand, will treat it as a challenge, and use all force to snap the rubber band not thinking about the results, and after all, they will see themselves as a winner, not a loser because of the pain.
ADHD moment. I'm constantly terrified of pitching up my guitar strings because I'm scared shitless that one of them will break (even though if it does it doesnt even hurt)
im so glad im not the only who's like this, i hate blowing up balloons too much in fear of it popping in my face and i hate stretching rubber bands too far in fear of being bitch slapped
I was thinking he was going to do a jerma joke where he first puts on a bunch of protective padding and eye protection before pulling on the rubber band, but yeah he did that joke already. RIP Jeremy
the manliest scream known to men
YourRage might beat him.

Jerma looks and acts like the Scout. Now he just needs to assimilate ChiliofDestiny's voice to complete the transformation.
Let’s not forget that, according to the comics, the Scout’s name is actually Jeremy.
And Jerma actually played tf2
lets not forget that both the Scout and Jerma were born in Boston
Everything is really adding up now.
Oh yeah, it’s all coming together...
Jerma is the most relatable streamer i've ever seen on the internet by far. i am scared of balloons and pulling rubber bands as well
Haha yeah me too
He is also scared of ovens which I resonate with
Same. I thought I was weird because everyone found things like popping balloons fun except me. I find it scary. Pulling rubber bands scares me too.
I'm also scared of irons and electric cookers so I can relate to his fear of ovens lmao. Glad I'm not alone.
Same, but I do it anyways and then go “aww why it hurt : (“
Same
I don't really know this guy, but based on the clips I've seen, he is pretty chaotic
Jerma strikes me as a pretty solid chaotic good alignment
@@1pieceisdareasoniliv you serious? jerma is practically a supervillain
Ball of Yarn with a Knife
@@1pieceisdareasoniliv im pretty sure killing Santa Claus disqualifies you from being on the "good" tier of the alignment chart
I’ve only seen this and him singing.
the lack of a chat overlay in his stream vods always makes his vids feel like he's having a convo with the voices in his head
That’s basically what twitch chat is anyway
He doesn't?
He looks like if projared drank what shrek had in shrek 2
He straight up looks like Prince Charming from Shrek 2
Oh fuck
dude.
lmao
Texas Red stop stealing my thoughts!
Jerma, the guy who won Vinewrestle 2019 but can't win against a rubber band

WHAT A STACKED STREAMER
when i saw this clip and read your comment i didn’t know who Jerma was and was extremely gullible. Now i’m having a chuckle that i really thought this compact little man could ever suplex more than a fondant shoe
What an absolute badass! He didn't even cry.
that scream had so much testosterone i grew a beard listening to it
I see this is getting recommended to non-Jerma acolytes. Good. The faith must grow.
I'm already a devoted follower of our Dear Leader Jim Pickens. Is there another cult I need to join?
@@bengal4047 Jim Pickens oh my god I remember that sim series. Is it still going on?
@@sourpuss5951 ik this is late but he is still playing sims 4 with jim, just not the cult really. Last I checked, he had santa as a prisoner, forcing him to sleep outside and collect chicken eggs
The ending was so anti climatic
he literally screamed so loud
Tell that to my pants
*ah---*
I’m not sure what you expected.
Arkatox I was expecting that snap on the rubber band to have a louder snap
pencil arm boy cannot destroy a rubber band. Short and weak.
I read this as the Heavy from TF2
"Baby arm boy cannot destroy rubber band, Tiny and weak"
boom i just made it a heavy quote
WarWeasel i tried that but ended up sounding like yoda but im still fucking dead over the heavy shit
Weak should fear the strong
yo this dude has some awesome muscles tho
I never related to anything more in my life
Jerma is, I don't even know what word to use, extremely hyper in tandem with being extremy indecisive, and he makes such menial, boring things big deals in a very entertaining and captivating way. Its so bizarre.
Its like "what do you think will happen if I crush this tomato with my bare hands right now?

You have summed up Jerma perfectly.
@@impoppy9145 Am I missing something here or is this meant to be an insult?

Is this what anxiety feels like? I felt it
can confirm
The Giant Enemy Rubberband
This and changing guitar strings...
The two scariest things on earth
Changing them isn't scary, cause you're loosening them. Tuning the lower strings to be sharper can be nerve wracking thou.
Just went through this rite a couple of months ago. Guess I was lucky it didn't slice through my palm like a lightsaber through butter, but I was spooked like if it did.
Whenever I tune my violin, I place a sweater on my arm to hopefully stop the strings from amputating me, should they ever snap
tuning the e string string on my violin is always an absolute nightmare, especially since i’ve snapped it and cut myself on it before. thanks for the tip lmao
He finally knows how it feels to tune a guitar with new strings.
So y’know when you’re a fan of a content creator before you’ve watched any of their actual content?
Edit: Since I made this comment I started watching Jerma’s content on CZcams.
Lavender Krackerz You literally cannot be such a fan of a better person.
Well, some of their content includes: a yearly Royal Rumble based on the characters hes created that year, an entire fucking actual fucking carnival where Twitch chat plays the games, a trivia show, and a LIVE ACTION of his Jerma Rumble. It's also one of the single most involved communities you'll ever be in. It's worth it.
I got into Jerma a few months back and it's been wild. Definitely one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire life.
@@connorambrosino1741 haha yeah the "yearly" rumble right
@@slyseal2091 Well
This is the most honest thing,I've ever seen
Another entry into the Jerma canon
> "I cant do this!"
> does it anyways
god he really projects my anxiety perfectly
That was the best representation of a rubber band I've ever seen
The build up, suspense, and conclusion were all amazing. Amazing story I have watched so far.
I pressed the skip button 4 times and wow, I got “I’m afraid to pull this”, “it’ll scare me” followed by “effort noises” then the shriek of fear. Despite me barely even watching the full video I got the full experience…

What a man, we can agree that we all are scared by pulling a rubber band apart.
to be fair I feel like it's gonna hit my eye just watching
That yelp had the same energy as the frightened elephant from that one Sam O' Nella Academy video
My introduction to Jerma985
This was the first clip i saw of him
It's been about 3 months and I've watched at least 20 VODs since this clip
ADHD moment. I'm constantly terrified of pitching up my guitar strings because I'm scared shitless that one of them will break (even though if it does it doesnt even hurt)
Jerma is the real life scout
this stream was insane I still remember it
"i cant do this" *does it*
The little scream at the end lol
what a handsome gentleman
i got a glock in my rari
@@JiantJames 17 shots no 38
I felt so much anxiety
no one is telling him to do this is the funny part
The more you stretch a rubber band and it doesn’t break the more anxiety-inducing it gets to continue to pull it
ngl i physically recoiled whenever he put it up to the camera
That sound he made at the end was straight-up just a Lizalfos from OoT
Jerma: I go to my fathers in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed.
I don't think I ever related to someone on the internet as much as Jerma here
"its going to break and it'l scare me" - Jerma 2019
I literally started blinking thinking it was gonna hit be through the screen or something
this video was more a battle with jerma and himself than jerma vs rubberband
“I can’t do this” immediately does it
he’s just out of this world. wow
I’m not even scared of the pain, Im scared of being so startled by it breaking I will have a heart attack and die instantly
I can't watch this video normally after seeing the handsome edits
Him holding the rubberband close to the camera made me physically move my laptop away
This footage is shows you "Jerma" in its early stages and how he is compelled to do things even if it sounds like he doesn't want to do them.
Jerma #256 prototype
I watched this 2 years ago and didn't realize this was jerma
im so glad im not the only who's like this, i hate blowing up balloons too much in fear of it popping in my face and i hate stretching rubber bands too far in fear of being bitch slapped
I expected everything except for that. Not dissapointed.
Perfectly cut scream
My palms are actually sweating, why have you done this
Jerma probably hurt himself more with the slap than that rubber band did.
"You know... I'm something of a scientist myself."
next: jerma overtunes a guitar
This is essentially how he says chat "makes" him do something
its like if a two year old inhabited an adult male body
I have the same fear as him, I know that feel.
The scream of absolute horror is brilliant
this is the clip that introduced me to jerma
susman imitate our emotions but we know that he is not a human but an among us character
breaking a rubberband is like a whip to me
“I can’t do this”
*does it*
Words cannot describe how much i love this man
I was thinking he was going to do a jerma joke where he first puts on a bunch of protective padding and eye protection before pulling on the rubber band, but yeah he did that joke already. RIP Jeremy
I think this was the first jerma video i ever saw...
The anxiety hurts
this video gives me so much anxiety in 40 secs
this is super man's actual kryptonite
The cut was perfect
honestly, i don't even blame him.
Jerma vs intrusive thoughts
This video is how I discovered jerma, thank you so much for showing him to me💜
A aliens reaction to a rubber band
him trying to overcome his irrational fears lives in my head rent free
Top ten anime battles.
Boston arc was amazing
I feel his pain.
He aint wrong, rubber bands scare the shit out of me
this what anxiety feels like
"no chat, I'm NOT gonna do this thing"
*Does thing*
i don't know why i was closing my ears at the last 10 seconds of the video
"I cant do this"
*proceeds to do it
im glad this was posted on my birthday
WHY IS THIS SO RELATABLE?!
