Unus... Annus... Unus... Annus!Unus Annusnote "One year" in Latin; pronounced "OOH-niss AW-niss" was a unique, time-limited YouTube channel created by Mark Fischbach and Ethan Nestor as a social experiment. It launched on November 15th, 2019, and ended on November 14th, 2020.The basic premise of the channel was that every day for one year, a new video was uploaded. At the end of the year, the channel and all of its videos were permanently deleted with each video beginning and ending with a countdown timer leading up to its deletion. The videos themselves were quite bizarre in their content, ignoring all of the site's advertiser-friendly monetization guidelines, resulting in videos like trying to cook a meal with sex toys or operating a portable sauna with urine.Ethan and Mark would occasionally play characters named Unus and Annus, who were respectively dressed in an all-black and all-white suit. The two would frequently remind the viewers that the time on this channel was very limited, as well as repeating "Memento mori" (an old Latin phrase that loosely translates to "Remember that you will die") as a Catchphrase. The Central Theme of these two characters was that We All Die Someday, and that one should use the time they have to make the most of their life.On November 14th, 2020, Unus Annus ended, true to the words of Mark and Ethan. There was a 12-hour livestream on the day, culminating with the on-stream deletion of their entire social media presence, including deleting the YouTube channel itself when the clock hit zero. Mark and Ethan also gave a last request to their fans to not re-upload any of the content from the channel, letting the videos stay permanently gone.note Small clip compilations are okay, but that's about it.Following the project's end, Mark and Ethan created "post-mortem" videos where they talked about their thoughts and feelings on the experience of working on the project (1, 2). A year later, they did them again, each releasing a video called "Memento Mori" (1, 2). A year after that, Mark and Ethan released another pair of retrospective videos, "Memento" and "Mori", which are intended to be watched simultaneously.

Madness Mantra: In one video, Mark kept repeating to himself, "The grip was loose". For context, Mark and Ethan had done a Grip Strength Test in August, and the loser would be the winner's butler for the day. Ethan supposedly won... but as Mark pointed out, Ethan cheated, because a photo showed that the grip on Ethan's test was loose. The grip was loose. The grip was loose...

Mr. Fanservice: Neither of the boys were shy about taking their shirts off in the post-quarantine videos. Whether it was out of a need for release or Mark was just proud of his new physique is anyone's guess. Jacksepticeye also got a shirtless scene in Preserving Ourselves in Wax, showing his hairy chest.

Only Sane Man: Amy "Peebles" Nelson, the Creative Director and main behind-the-scenes person (and Mark's girlfriend), was usually the one who had to rein in the boys before they did something that was either dangerous, stupid, or dangerous and stupid. This later turned out to be subverted as Amy came up with a lot of their more cursed video ideas, and even egged on Mark and Ethan in some of the later videos.

Drunk on Milk

comment
Drunk on Milk: Most of the "eating videos" resulted in this, due to Mark and Ethan consuming a ludicrous amount of food/drink by the end. This was lampshaded in "We Play the Newlywed Game While Consuming That Which Will Kill the Other," when Ethan (who was drinking beer) handled it fine and Mark (who was eating peanut butter) fell completely apart.

 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_2bc77899
comment
I Am Not Pretty: A Running Gag throughout the channel is Ethan being described as 'horrifically ugly', and he oftentimes mentioned feeling insecure about his body (even directly saying such in "Preserving Ourselves in Wax"). Additionally, he and Mark joked around about his "Santa belly" in "Mark and Ethan Get a Full Body Scan to See What Secrets Lay Hidden Within". This was despite him having a thin physique and being average-looking at his worst. It is worth noting that this is primarily Played for Laughs, however.

Face Death with Dignity
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_396e1c2a
comment
Face Death with Dignity: "The Truth of Unus Annus" focuses on Mark and Ethan accepting that the end (of the channel, that is) is inevitable, courtesy of Unus and Annus. Fittingly enough, this episode was released 13 days before the channel's deletion. Likewise, in both "The Beginning of the End" and "This Is Goodbye" (110 and 100 days before the 'death' of the channel, respectively), the two personas encourage viewers to not fear 'the end', as they have accepted that everything has its end, even themselves, and they're going to make the best of the time left. This was ultimately brought up by Mark in "Goodbye", where he admits that he's not afraid of his own demise; rather, he doesn't want to leave this world full of regrets believing he hasn't done enough with his time on Earth.

comment
Do Not Go Gentle: Ethan and Mark, in their Unus and Annus personas, quote the original poem in "The Beginning of the End" as they go into the last 110 days. Fitting for an 'anything goes' YouTube channel meant to self-destruct in a year. This was actually the main premise of the channel, as expressed in the first video: what would you do if you knew that you had one year left to live? As Ethan and Mark showed during the whole year, you could get away with doing a lot, including Beer/Pee Saunas, eating bugs, dissecting owl pellets... they did a lot with the year they were given.

Dropped a Bridge on Him: invokedIn "We Made Every YouTuber Battle in the Hunger Games", Mark and Ethan were hoping Unus — Ethan's Ax-Crazy alter-ego — would win, and were disappointed when he inexplicably died in a failed double suicide with Lily Singh.

Sensitive Guy and Manly Man
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_43dc74d0
comment
Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Ethan and Mark respectively often have this dynamic. Notably, Ethan showed far more signs of vulnerability, such as fear or anxiety, during the videos than Mark did. Best illustrated in "Ethan Finally Becomes A MAN" and "2 Absolute Beginners Experience The Dancing Glory That Is Salsa". In the former, Mark's experience as a carpenter allowed him to expertly build a dog bed for Chica, while Ethan clumsily attempted (and failed) to use basic carpentry tools like a saw and a tape measure. In the latter, Ethan's experience as a gymnast allowed him to almost-immediately catch on to the basics of salsa dancing, receiving compliments from the dancing instructor, while Mark stiffly and awkwardly tried his best. Surprisingly inverted in "We Have the Best Bellies on Youtube", where Mark was a much better belly dancer than Ethan.

Their First Time: In the "Helium Therapy" episode, Mark and Ethan took turns describing their first sexual encounters. Mark started off with a rather sad story about the pain and inadequacy he experienced on his first time. Ethan's story was considerably more humorous, involving an interruption by his partner's little brother.

Early-Installment Weirdness: Some early videos, such as "Ethan Will Be Kicked in the Balls", included a title card shortly after the intro clock. Later videos did away with this. Some of the early episodes had the Signing Off Catchphrase, "Memento mori. We'll see you tomorrow. Unus... Annus." This was absent until the last ten or so videos, particularly "The Truth of Unus Annus".

Not What It Looks Like: In the "Cooking with Sex Toys" video, a random bystander happened to spot Mark and Ethan through their window.... while Mark, whose mouth was opened by a gag, was being fed by Ethan using a paddle. Embarrassment and awkwardness ensued. In "Mark Turns Ethan into a Mummy to Prepare Him for the Great Beyond", Ethan took off his shirt so the salt wouldn't get in it... at the same time that Mark walked into the room.

Book Ends: Each episode began and ended with a countdown to the end of the channel. The channel's first proper video, "Cooking With Sex Toys", featured Mark and Ethan using sex toys to make themselves breakfast. In one of the channel's final videos, "Everything's Legal If You're Dead", Mark and Ethan did this again, but this time, with more crime. Twofold, in that "Cooking With Sex Toys" was actually the second video filmed, making it fitting that the second to last video before "Goodbye" also involved sex toys. The first and last words spoken on the channel were said by Ethan.

Alternative Character Interpretation: In-Universe all over "We Made Every YouTuber Battle in the Hunger Games". Unus (Ethan) was a psycho who killed four people right off the bat and later stabbed Elon Musk to death, finishing with the highest kill count. Jenny Nicholson was also Ax-Crazy, including killing Annus (Mark), even getting a hatchet (which Mark thinks is a reference to Jack Nicholson in The Shining). Mark was also a remorseless killer who ended up killing four different people, eventually winning the game. Jake Paul was a Master of Disguise. Ethan died of dysentery on the first day.

Off the Rails
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_60eac4ba
comment
Off the Rails: Happened all the time, but a few were particularly memorable. "Edible Slime Was A Mistake" lampshades this habit by showing a disclaimer stating "THIS VIDEO ONLY GOES DOWNHILL FROM HERE" in its early minutes, with the episode indeed going completely off script from whatever they had planned. "1 Man 100 Accents" started with Ethan (badly) imitating various accents, but before long he got off-track and ended up rambling about Chernobyl. It ended with him singing along to Eminem for some reason. The Jell-O eating video started with Mark and Ethan trying to eat a gallon of Jell-O together, and ended with Mark playing "Amazing Grace" through a beer bong full of Jell-O. Toward the end of "Mark Gives Ethan a HOT (stone) Massage", Mark's mom (on a video call) completely derailed the narrative by calling Amy "sexy legs" and unexpectedly inviting Ethan to visit Korea and meet Korean women. Once the video call ended, Mark, Ethan, and Amy spent the next sixty seconds laughing their asses off before Mark sheepishly declared the episode over.

Permanently Missable Content: The channel in its entirety was created with this in mind, with the promise that all its content would be deleted after one year, something they kept their promise about on November 14th, 2020. In "You Blink You Lose" and "You Breathe You Die", the winner got to delete a video from the loser's YouTube channel. In the former, Mark won and deleted Ethan's "I Want to Believe"; in the latter, Ethan won and deleted Mark's "Douchebag Workout".

Iconic Outfit: Unus/Ethan and Annus/Mark's black and white suits, respectively. They mostly wore these suits during some of the more somber videos; the channel's first video "Unus Annus", milestones such as "The Beginning of The End" and "This is Goodbye", the last two weeks of the channel and the final twelve hours during "Goodbye", to name a few. As showcased in the beginning of "Who’s Cutting Onions In Here???", each suit had the wearer's name ("Unus" and "Annus") embroidered on the inside.

Trauma Conga Line: "Ethan Will be Kicked in the Balls" was this for Ethan. First, he was unable to inflate his tube due to his asthma and had to drive to a bike shop to get it blown up. Then, he realized that the inflated tube wouldn't fit in the car, so he had to deflate it to get it back to Mark's place. Then, after Mark filled it up for him, he got kicked in the balls by accident when Mark jumped and he didn't.

Arc Words: Unus Annus... Unus ANNUS! This Ominous Latin Chanting opened every video, complete with a clock that was counting down closer and closer to zero. "Memento Mori." A Latin phrase that translates roughly to "remember that you are mortal" or "remember that you will die". It tied into the Central Theme of the channel that the time we have is limited, so one should make the most of it.

Schrödinger's Gun: In the video "Only Watch from 2:15 to 6:11 —- DO NOT WATCH ANY OTHER PART OF THIS VIDEO", the timestamps shown in the title were meant to indicate that there are more Annuses than Unuses with Mark gloating and Ethan lamenting his loss. Checking out the other parts of the video showed what would have happened if the opposite was true.

Real Life Writes the Plot
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_786bf97f
comment
Real Life Writes the Plot: The social distancing requirements of the COVID-19 pandemic, which went into effect in early 2020, meant that videos in the style of the bizarre early ones could no longer be made. Consequently, most videos filmed during the lock-down took the form of Mark and Ethan messing around on the Internet from their own homes.

comment
Breather Episode: "Accepting the Truth", which was uploaded one day after the ominous "The Truth of Unus Annus", and was followed by the last twelve videos of the channel. The video consisted of Mark and Ethan in their suits, bathing their feet in Mark's poolside hot tub. The two sat somberly discussing what they'd learned about the fleeting nature of life and time throughout the channel's life, and invited the audience to their final "Goodbye" live stream which began twelve days later. Also "The Unus Annus Annual Sleepover", in which the duo had a typical, charming sleepover and even made friendship bracelets for each other, on the second-to-last day of the channel. Its description gave a fitting summary of the overall mood of the video.

What the Hell Is That Accent?: In "2 Men 200 Accents", Mark and Ethan practiced an Irish accent and called Jacksepticeye after a little practice. When Ethan asked what part of Ireland he was from with his voice, Jack said "God fucking knows at this point!" Marks invoked this for most of the video, getting stuck between Scottish and French during the call.

Bears Are Bad News: Two episodes of the "Camp Unus Annus" series had to do with them being either watched or attacked by a "bear" (Evan, who was holding the camera). In "Three Big Boys Attempt The Royal Fitness Test", Mark dramatizes one of Ethan's performances as a game he lost against a team of "bears and lions". He later shortens this for the remaining exercises, referring to "the bears" once things start to get hard.

This included slathering their feet and legs in Icy-Hot, soaking the rest of their bodies in freezing water, and eating raw onions and garlic while bright strobe lights flash and loud death-metal music plays.

Don't Touch It, You Idiot!: Due to COVID-19, Mark and Ethan did a challenge in which they tried not to touch their faces. They successfully prevented themselves from touching their faces (and avoid falling for each other's Schmuck Bait) during the course of the challenge. At the end of the video, they told the viewers that until the quarantine is over that they would donate $100 each time either of them touched their faces. In "Mark's 1 Weird Talent Leaves Ethan Absolutely Speechless" we found that Ethan had ended up strapping his arms to his desk to stop touching his face because of his lack of mental restraint.

Oh, Crap!
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_ad1db87c
comment
Oh, Crap!: Happened all the time, frequently when Mark and/or Ethan realized what the subject of the day's video is going to be. In the "Cooking With Sex Toys" video, the look on Mark's face when he notices a person outside the window can be summed up as this. The moment in "Beer Sauna" when Evan innocently suggested doing a Pee Sauna video. Ethan had a Freak Out with a Rapid-Fire "No!", while Mark just stared in mute horror for a few seconds before uttering "Evan, what have you done?" During the duo's doghouse construction project for Chica, Mark decided it's the perfect opportunity to get the paintball payback that he had been threatening Ethan with for several episodes. When Mark told an unaware Ethan to get down on his knees, Ethan just about soiled himself.

Significant Wardrobe Shift: At the end of "The Truth of Unus Annus", Ethan and Mark donned their signature black and white suits, and wore the same suits every video afterward for the two remaining weeks of the channel's life, with the exception of "God's Fitness Test" and the penultimate "The Unus Annus Annual Sleepover", though they still kept their ties for the former.

This was actually the main premise of the channel, as expressed in the first video: what would you do if you knew that you had one year left to live? As Ethan and Mark showed during the whole year, you could get away with doing a lot, including Beer/Pee Saunas, eating bugs, dissecting owl pellets... they did a lot with the year they were given.

Recap Episode: "Recreating Every Single Unus Annus Video", in which Mark and Ethan recreated (almost) every single one of their videos up to that one, albeit in a fast-paced, nonsensical manner. The video even started with the two playfully mocking the audience that they'd never catch up with all of their videos in time. While some of these recreations were brief, accurate summaries of each video's antics, others consisted of short jokes, the duo trying to recall what the episode in question was about, or still laughing at a joke from their previous recreation. At least two videos were skipped entirely.

Weaksauce Weakness: Mark and Ethan's sensitivities to alcohol and peanuts, respectively, were used as this for comedy. Mark exaggerated his by claiming that a single drop of alcohol would kill him instantly. Ethan's claims that 1/500th of a peanut would be fatal, however, weren't exaggerated, as discussed in "What Was The Most Painful Thing We've Ever Endured?"note  A study he participated in determined that exposure to 1/500th of a peanut would be fatal to him.. Mark is a texture eater, which gave him trouble when eating high quantities of onions and peanut butter in "Eating Only Onions for 24 Hours" and "We Play the Newlywed Game While Consuming That Which Will Kill the Other", respectively.

Within the holes of the six and the nine, the words "DUDE!" and "NICE!" were visible at the beginning of the video, and "BRUH!" and "SWEET!" at the end. "We Finally Drank Our DIY Wine" was released 69 days before the end, and similarly said "Nice" at the beginning (though not at the end).

Shout-Out
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Mark often said "This is what it means to go even further beyond!", a slight misquote of what Goku says in Dragon Ball Z the first time he goes Super Saiyan 3. (The actual line is simply "And this is to go even further beyond!") Many videos used music and sound effects from SCP – Containment Breach to ramp up the suspense. "Nutball: The Most Dangerous Game" and "The Most Dangerous Shave" were named after the famous short story. Mark frequently referenced How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), and "Unus Annus Carves the Roast Beast" was explicitly a Whole-Plot Reference. Among the cardboard cutout characters in "Our Perfect (and last) Valentine's Day" were Princess Fiona, Elastigirl, the Conductor from The Polar Express, and the Genie from Aladdin (2019). "Mark Teaches Ethan How to Play the Trumpet" began with a Phineas and Ferb-style title sequence. "We Made Every YouTuber Battle in the Hunger Games" was, of course, referencing The Hunger Games. SCP-3000 was discussed in "Don't Go in the Ocean... Ever", and one video was titled "We Accidentally Made an SCP While Amy Was Away". Mark and Ethan partially recited The Charge of the Light Brigade and Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night after downing shots of apple cider vinegar in "Mark and Ethan Share a Drink". In "How Tall Can A Human Get?: An Impartial Review by 2 Average Height Men", Mark went on a rant about Warhammer 40,000's implausible Space Marine physiology, and praised the alternate design introduced in Dawn of War III. The second ghost-hunting video was titled "Phasmophobia in Real Life". In the Last Supper video, Ethan said that if he was about to be executed, his choice for a last meal would be a peanut butter sandwich. In "Ethan Teaches Mark How to Swim" Ethan states that if you enter the water before waiting 30 minutes after eating the leeches will eat you. Recreating Every Single Unus Annus Video acknowledged that the episode We Will Churn Thy Butter is a reference to Whose Line Is It Anyway?, from a skit by Colin Mochrie from Let's Make A Date.

Getting into a strange "Melon man" personality after failing to crush a melon as seen in "Crushing Watermelons Betwixt Our Mighty Thighs". Previously on the same video, he tried to crush the same watermelon with his asscheeks. Naming the ship that he and Mark built "USS Engineer Boy Jr." in "Building the World's First IKEA Boat".

Lyrical Dissonance: "How to Safely Bury Your Friend" had Mark and Ethan sing a song about digging a grave... set to the lively melody of "You've Got a Friend in Me".

Punch a Wall
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_dcf1e0e2
comment
Punch a Wall: In "2 Grown Men Attempt the Presidential Fitness Test", Mark rode a stationary bike and grew frustrated at a combination of Ethan's remarks and how exhausting the ride was. After completing it, he punched the wall and then apologized to Ethan. When the video cut to Mark apologizing, his finger was bandaged up and was seen in a splint for the next few videos.

Man of a Thousand Voices: Attempted in "1 Man 100 Accents", but Ethan wasn't particularly great at accents. Reprised in "2 Men 200 Accents", where both attempted to improve their ability to do accents. Ethan improved more than Mark, but still wasn't particularly great.

There was a large number of the channel's fans who believed and/or were hoping that Mark and Ethan were bluffing or joking about deleting the channel once the timer hit zero. However, true to their word, they did exactly that in "Goodbye".invoked

Anti-Role Model: The list in "How to NOT be the Perfect Boyfriend" advocates submitting to Domestic Abuse, "Sacrificing Self Identity" and more. Here's the list, if you want to be horrified. The website was later changed to actual ways to be a better boyfriend after the unsurprising outcry that it had terrible advice at being a better boyfriend.

Brain Bleach: "Reddit 50/50: Two Player Edition" involved a coin flip of pleasant and terrifying content and both players saw some seriously disturbing stuff. They also expressed sympathy for their editor, as they'd have to see what they saw and censor it for the viewers. In "Wikifeet: A Tale of 2 Tootsies" one of them searched for "Bad Feet" and saw a rather disturbing (but censored) image of feet before cutting to the outro before resuming the video.

Misspelling Out Loud: In "Making Our Own Gravestones to Prepare For Our Inevitable Demise", Ethan spelled Plinth as "Pleanth" "The Ultimate Paper Airplane Showdown" exaggerates this, as according to Ethan, "Harrumph" is spelled "Tak". This becomes a Running Gag after Ethan then names his plane after it. In "How to Start a Fire (except don't...)", Ethan throws off Mark's intro by spelling Fire "Firt".

Groin Attack: In "2 Truths and 1 Lie — Waxing Edition", Mark and Ethan both had to get their pubes waxed. One video is called "Ethan Will Be Kicked in the Balls". Guess how it ended? In "Nutball: The Most Dangerous Game", Mark and Ethan took turns sliding a spinning Gatorade bottle toward each other's testicles. The first one to collapse in pain loses. One scenario in "The Ultimate Trolley Problem" invoked this: you can redirect the trolley to save dozens of lives, but it'll run over your dick if you do.

Intoxication Ensues: In "Fixing Mark's Hole with Ramen but Every Time We Add Glue We Get 5% Closer to God," this resulted from Mark and Ethan failing to properly ventilate themselves while adding heavy amounts of superglue to dense clumps of instant ramen that they'd shoved into a hole in the wall. As the title implied, the video punctuated this by gradually distorting every time they added more glue, and eventually showed them "passed out" before cutting to the winners of the Coldus Annus challenge.

Running Gag
 Unus Annus (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Mark telling Ethan to not touch him. Mark inevitably bringing out a paintball gun to menace Ethan in subtle (and not-so-subtle, even by Markiplier standards) ways post-"Mark Reviews The Impossible Burger...". This stopped when Mark actually shot Ethan with a paintball gun in "Ethan Finally Becomes a MAN". "Don't tell Amy!" Mark's weirdly encyclopedic memory of How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), which he frequently referenced (especially in the Christmas-themed episodes). The looming threat of the inevitable "Pee Sauna" video after Evan brought up the idea in an earlier video. This eventually came to a close when the actual "Pee Sauna" came out. The hole in the wall and Mark's resulting injury. Mark being so poor in the past that he couldn't experience some things. Anytime Mark needs to hit something, expect him to act very sexually about it, often saying "You close?" while doing it. Mark denying he's a Masochist. "Let's get ____", followed by its title card. Mark trying to get Del Monte Foods to sponsor him after drinking a can of corn in "We Attempted to Create THICC Water". In "Recreating Every Single Unus Annus Video", several of the recaps had one of the two smothering something with a pillow while saying, "You're gonna be sleeping with the fishes!" The duo realize during "Goodbye" that several videos tended to end with one or both of them dying.

Rhymes on a Dime: Mark invoked this in "The Great Meat Mistake" when Ethan started looking for the tongs: This came up again in "Mark's Outdoor Escape Room", where Mark "kidnaps" Ethan and gives him hints to escape with riddles. The pseudo-sequel, "Ethan Kidnapped Mark", likewise has Ethan doing the same, although his rhymes ended up being a lot more...out-there...

Brick Joke: In "Mark Reviews The Impossible Burger But There's a Looming Sense of Impending Doom", Mark made Ethan promise to get shot with a very powerful paintball gun when he least expects it. In "Ethan Finally Becomes a MAN", Mark made good on that promise. In "Beer Sauna: Turning a Portable Sauna into a Portable Hell", Evan (one of the camera-people for the episode) suggested that the two do a pee sauna. Three months later, the first video they did out of quarantine is just that.
