The Portal Iceberg: Explained

✔️ Thanks for watching! English Captions are now available! ✔️

NOTE: I forgot to narrate an entry so here it is,
In Case of Flooding, Seek Air Pockets: This entry refers to the signs found throughout Portal 2’s Test Shaft 09, where one should seek air pockets in case of flooding. These signs could be warning personnel about the gels and their potential to flood the facility. Flooding had been a potential issue due to the sheer amount of pipes and pumps that were found in the underground facilities. The pipes can be easily destroyed with mines so any explosions and the gels are toxic to the human body, so flooding would be a disastrous event for Aperture Science.

An iceberg should be information not theories

A woman doing things, or being the main character of a game, literally has nothing to do with feminism. Feminists are grasping at straws on this one.

Portal and Portal 2 being feminist propaganda makes me love it more

The cut-off portal gun rule is "Do not take the device out of the designated testing area" according to the files

I've seen plenty of Glados' cake to know how real it is

The cave Johnson were when hes still alive is not true you see a picture of him in mid 70s 60s he would be dead by then

What if the BFDI timeline take place after the complete and utter end of Both Portal, and Half-life timeline. At a unknown futuristic at a unknown year probably 125 million years after the timeline of Both half-life and portal.

I’m pretty sure they put cave Johnson in apature desk job

F stop might have eventually become viewfinder

im not sure but i would say 60 meters

>Portal 1 True Ending isnt on the iceberg

Saying portal is "feminist propaganda" is like saying "team fortress 2 is war propaganda"

The third portal gun rule does not exist. Valve can not count to 3.

Good Iceberg but you like many others missed one thing about the Caroline GLADOS theory, at the end of Portal 2 GLADOS deletes the Caroline personality from her mainframe and is still GLADOS meaning Caroline was always just a part of GLADOS's personality..

For the speculation on how long chell slept for, 55 9s of years sounds too much and seems unusual for the announcer would use years instead of something like months if we consider that it's incredibly likely something like 1 new test subject tested per day. I doubt test subjects would be in cryo-storage for years. It would have to be months at most considering if 55 9s of years had passed, the Earth would probably have ceased to exist by the time that 55 9s of years had passed.

I am on the feminist part of the video and I got to say that if you as a person pay more attention to what you are playing as rather than the great game you are playing you need to get your priority's straight.

Wow I did not know that

There's also a theory that Chells parents were Cave and Carolyn

When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

On the "GlaDOS is Caroline AND Cave Johnson" theory, aperture desk job revealed that cave was still alive as an AI in a giant C.J. head, so that disproves this potential (but interesting) theory

For the 'nine years' entry, I want to assume the measurement of time is consistent between the '50 days' and the '99999...' because it just makes more logical sense.

there is a game called aperture desk job, where we learn that cave johnson is actually in a giant head shaped computer, which holds his entire person in a computer

I’m so you’re wrong about the idea there isn’t multiple fat man there actually is in portal to co-op. One of the mission missions is to locate the survivors of the gas chamber that hit their self in the underground part at the end the mission you can see them in their little container tubes.

good thing I have played both games

Im glad the turrets are mention in this iceburg. I always noticed the similarities between the half life 2 turrets and portal's turrets but i was probably just overthinking it but im glad my suspicions were correct

Is this just apophenia? Cause I’ve been playing Portal 2 and stumbled on this video and I haven’t caught any of this

Cave johnson said if HE died, then carolin would do it instead, Not both of them.

iH

There is one big thing this iceberg missed:
A little crossover game which has a
- Portal Level in Main Story
- Portal Level Pack
- A new end credits song sung by GLaDOS
This iceberg is missing...
Lego Dimensions

My take in the feminist themes is that it has feminist subtext, but it is not the main focus and it is not stated outright.

can it run doom?

I’ve had a Black Forest cake and it’s pretty good

A theory I have is that if portal 3 ever does get made (which is almost certainly not going to happen) I think cave johnson will come in to play a BIG role in it.

Announcer probably said the number in days, and still glitched.

Well glados was stuck for [REDACTED] rewatching her death, mush earlier than the potato thing you mentioned.

Wait what if Doug Ratman is related to G-man? Never speaks nowadays and looks a bit insane. Or Doug ratman IS G-man?

I agree that the cake is real, and my reasoning for this is that in the first game, Glados says she doesn’t have the capability to lie. Therefore, in order to trick Chell she has to tell the truth in a convoluted way. She promises Chell that there will be cake at the end, and so she is not lying because technically, she did make a cake. (Perhaps she was going to feed it to Chell’s ashes? Kind of grim.) After Chell breaks out, the candle is put out because Glados’ test subject figured out what was going on and escaped. The cake no longer has a purpose for being there, and so Glados disposes of it.
