The Horror of the Valentine's Day Video.
Not much is known about this video, but it was made as a joke on Valentine's Day, and Phil shows his love for Dan, and it was supposed to be "accidently unprivated" on April Fools Day, But why would he post such a large video on his main channel? It was unprivated by YouTube on accident too early, and it was deleted as soon as possible. There are people who find and steal the video, but Dan and Phil have requested for it to be deleted, as it is extremely private. If you find any part of it, report the page. Especially if you found the video. But if it has a small clip, (around 4ish seconds) It's used as a joke.
