===Fabulous Secret Powers===
Jay was the original creator of the video Fabulous Secret Powers. The video was publicized on sites Something Awful and vimeo, and at some point, user ProtoOfSnagnem uploaded it on YouTube under the title HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA without giving credit to Jay.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ5LpwO-An4 
On April 13, 2022, Wavywebsurf would make a video detailing how the original video was stolen.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NEqNDmy8SU slackcircus would thank him.https://twitter.com/SLACKCiRCUS/status/1516164091328581637
Jay would then update the description of the video to this:
So, here's a little backstory on this video. 
This is the original video from which the "HEHEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA" / "He-Man Sings" meme was born. 
(FULL HISTORY IS BELOW) 
We made this video in 2005 and posted it to the Something Awful forums: http://secretpowers.net/reddit/fsp_history.html
In 2006, dkilzer2000 posted it to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8Nc8RCLy1s
We finally got around to posting it to our own page in 2007 (you are here). 
Then, in 2010, in the process of redesigning our company web site, we posted it to Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/8564338 
We did not disable the "Download the source video" option on Vimeo, nor did we leave our watermark on the video as we had on the YouTube version. From Vimeo, people grabbed the "high quality" version, edited out the intro and outro (which included all of our credits), and posted it again to YouTube. As it turns out, removing the intro and outro was a very smart and viral-y decision by ProtoOfSnagem and others, because the video has gotten over 60M views in this abbreviated form. We tried for over a year to get ProtoOfSnagem to at least credit us for the video, but he never responded—in fact, it seemed to be a dead YouTube account—so on 11/14/12 we flagged it and YouTube pulled it down, along with over TWO YEARS of your comments. :( 
On 11/15/12, we retracted the claim on ProtoOfSnagem's version. Our only goal was to prompt Proto to credit us in his description, but instead it just felt like we broke this joyful little corner of the Internet and made a lot of people sad. That is the OPPOSITE of what this video is all about. 
11/16/12—ProtoOfSnagem's version returned to YouTube. We have no plans to pull it down again, as we feel this video belongs to you, the Internet Citizens, at this point. Since 2005, there have been all manner of tributes, remixes and even 5-10 hour loops of the video. 
We've collected our favorite tributes to Fabulous Secret Powers here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXtM1K03stJo3vKejGKKUMqpuPbILVveF 
All of this is to say, we are extremely happy so many people have enjoyed this video over the years. And if you're here watching the original, sitting through the smooth intro tones of my Yamaha DX7 (aka the Doogie Howser-o-matic, which you can pry out of my cold, dead hands) we appreciate you! 
Love, Slackcircus.
