It took a lot of research to find the original Valentine's Day video since all of them get flagged on YouTube for Copy Right. I also have the transcript to the video. Here is the transcript and if you want to watch the video instead of spending hours of your life trying to find it on YouTube you can watch it. Here is the transcript:
"Awrf.
Hi Dan. Happy Valentine's Day.
I know you said we weren't gonna do anything for Valentine's Day, but you had to go to bed, leaving me for five hours with nothing to do. So, I have made this video, because I love you, and I've never had Valentine's Day with anyone before. So, this is me saying, "I love you." Plus, you got me loads of awesome birthday presents and I wanted to repay you, somehow, because it was the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.
The first time we met, I was the nervous-est person ever, as you could tell, and I was clawing at you, and biting you, but that was just because I really liked you, and luckily you saw through that. And then, when we were on the big wheel, I was like, "I really hope he likes me too." And then you kissed me, and my heart did that flippy-over thing, and, it'd never done that before, so... that was nice.
And over the next few months we saw each other a lot and I slowly fell in love with you. And I just thought I'd share some of my favorite memories that I have of us together.
So the first one is on the snowiest day ever, when we were walking through the abandoned hospital. And you had your hat on, and you lay down in the snow, and looked at the stars. And I lay next to you, and kissed you, and wrote "I love Dan" in the snow.
Endless coffee in Starbucks, caramel macchiato, and our Starbucks sofa...
The week we spent together in my house was amazing, I think that's when I properly fell in love with you. And when we watched Wall-E on my sofa, and then cried. All the cuddles in bed, and three-hour breakfasts, more of those please. Lying on the sofa and watching films, and lying in my bed, and funny times in my bed.
Also at the Halloween gathering when we realized that no other YouTubers actually eat, so we went and got some food and then sat on the fountain. At that point, I kind of realized that I didn't really care about the other YouTubers, I just wanted to be spending time with you. And we held hands, and then kissed, and looked at the stars.
And when we can't be together, all the hundreds of hours of Skype calls that we've had have made me eight million times happier.
And when I woke you up and said, "Mario!"
And all our Manchester days, and watching Avatar in 3D, and kissing in 3D glasses, and...
So many other things, that I'm probably forgetting, but those are just a few that make me smile.
Meow.
And I just wanna say that I love you so much, and I'm so happy to have you in my life, and... you are the best person in the world. So thank you, for being so amazing.
I love you.
Happy Valentine's Day, Dan"
Yep, that's all of it. Now there is a whole back story to the Valentines Day video. What I mean by that is that the excuse they made for it doesn't make sense and some doesn't even add up, some of it just can't even happen. So if you do Google "Dan and Phil's explanation for the Valentine's Day Video and go to imagines you should see a Tumblr post. This Tumblr post is really long and it's an image so I will just go with what it is and what it says.
Someone asked Dan on Tumblr to explain the video, (picture above) Dan replies. He says it was a April Fools Prank for the creepy shippers (and we are not creepy Dan, let us live our life.) This doesn't make sense of why it would be a April Fools Prank. Why? Well, it was planned to months early, and it was uploaded February 13, 2010. Why in the world would you plan such a prank 2 months early?!Dan also said that they put the video on private and YouTube had a "glitch" and made it unprivate. Even if it was a glitch it was perfect timing for it to glitch. The video was meant for Valentines Day and YouTube glitched perfectly.
In Dan's explanation for the video he said at the end of his message in parentheses "I mean seriously how stupid would you have to be to think would upload that to amazingphil if he wanted that to be on private". Dan, you just gave away everything. The video wasn't uploaded to AmazingPhil it was uploaded to LessAmazingPhil. Phil wanted to prank subscribers. Where did Phil's subs come from? His main channel. So if he wanted to prank subs he would of uploaded it to his main channel not his back up channel that, he really needs to upload more on like omg Phil wtf.
The video is based of things that actually happened. The things Phil said that in the video was either based off a tweet, or a video. Phil also put way to much detail with the video. His drawings matched the clothes they were wearing on that day. (Don't ask how I know that I just know a lot about Dan and Phil.)
When you prank someone, you get their reactions of confusion, rage, over excitement or wtf expression then tell them "it was a prank." Then laugh your ass off at them. At the end of the Valentines Day video Phil never said that he ended it with a picture of them sitting at the fountain (I should add that it was a drawn picture) with the words "I love you" at the top. The video was supposed to be a prank right, well it never had that "it was a prank" at the end.
Dan and Phil knew that after they had there explanation that it didn't make sense to they constantly destroy anything that has the Valentines Day video in it (Don't kill me Dan and Phil).
So, to wrap this up. No, the video wasn't a prank and I have enough evidence to support that. A lot of what they said doesn't make sense. Hopefully one day we will get an explanation. (I have a feeling they are going to come out in the month August or the month December.)
I did steal some of the facts from someone on Tumblr so I give creds.
If you have anything that you noticed about the Valentines Day video because I'm going to make a video about this on my channel. (I give creds, I wouldn't want someone taking my ideas so yeah, I will give you credit for noticing what ever you noticed that I didn't)
