The One Second Collab
YouTube Poop has many factors to consider when you look at one’s work. The sources, effects, and styles used are generally the main focus, but something we all consider is length. Some of us create videos that are under a minute and some of us create videos that push the time limit YouTube has set to the edge, nearing ten minutes. A few community-wide jokes have spawned from videos with immensely short lengths, such as Hulk Hogan or Captain Falcon with their now somewhat famous grunts and groans. While these mini-videos are great, someone in our community has began a collaboration where the goal is to create with a maximum of one second to work with. The One Second Collab, ran by mcmungo, shall be a project that will shelter thirty different videos, all one second in length.
As of writing this, the One Second Collab is no longer taking entries (unless one of the thirty participants is no longer entering and a replacement is needed).
I was able to speak with mcmungo and get the specs from the host of this collaboration himself.
YTP News - “So, what is the One Second Collab?”
mcmungo - “The one second collab is just what it sounds like. Since most people won’t bother with making a collab entry that’s over a minute or so, my collab only requires one second of poop. That way, anyone can enter. Making a succesful poop can be hard, but a one second video will almost always be good, no matter what it is. I’ve seen quite a lot of different entries, and it will be interesting to see how the full thing turns out.”
YTP News - “What is the goal of the One Second Collab?”
mcmungo - “I’ve always wanted to make a collabration, ever since I joined these forums. I never thought I had an original idea for a collab, so I just kept quiet. But I actually felt pretty good about this idea. So basically my goal with this was to make a successful collab.”
YTP News - “Why did you decide to run this collaboration?”
mcmungo - “I got the inspiration to make it from a conversation I had with some other poopers on the Poop TV channel. We were talking about collabs or something, and then it just popped into my head. A couple of days later I posted the idea on the forums, and apparently people liked it.”
YTP News - “How do you feel about this collaboration and it’s progress?”
mcmungo - “It was alot more well recieved than I thought it would be. I have made some dumb threads during the time I’ve been here, so I thought that most users would probably just ignore the whole thing. As of now, I have 30 entrants (about half of them have sent in their entries). So yeah, I think this collab is progressing great.”
YTP News - “Thank you for your participation, mcmungo. Good luck with the collaboration.”
mcmungo - “You’re welcome. Thanks for the opportunity to help. I hope my answers were good enough.”
The collaboration has no official deadline and, as stated before the interview, is no longer accepting new participants. Among the list of participants are Ophios, Gamebop, Lighting Spike, Gallers, Temeku, KonXII, herbert spatula, Erarg, and myself. For the entire list of participants, which contains many well known names in the community besides the ones here, as well as a glimpse at some of the entries, visit the official thread here.
From YTP News, good luck to mcmungo and everyone else participating in the One Second Collab.

Do you REALLY want me to edit it so it does mention your name? I was just picking out random names. I don’t really know who KonXII is myself.

It will look great when all the 1 second Poops go together in one 30 second long vid.
I looked up mcmungo on YouTube and he got suspended! Noooo! Hopes he’ll return in an alt account! D8
