'''The Pit''' serves as the Youtube Poop equivalent of Hell. The Pit has two noteable differences from its Biblical counterpart: You can leave The Pit, and there is no "good" counterpart of The Pit. Regardless of whether a character is a hero or a villain, they go to The Pit when they [[DIE]]. There is no Poop version of Heaven.

The physical location of The Pit seems to be [[Sparta]]. [[King Leonidas|Leonidas]] seems to kick anyone who pisses him off into here. The first person to ever return from a trip to The Pit was, in fact, [[Ganon]], whom is arguably the Pit's [[Two|second]] [[Hektad|most frequent visitor]]. When asked what the pit feels like, Ganon responded by simply stating that it "[[Fire|burns]]".

It has been revealed that Lavalisms can survive falling into The Pit. By comparison, [[Gaston]], who was not a Lavalism, did not survive being thrown into The Pit. Despite that, however, he has since made a triumphant return to the tavern.

Latest revision as of 13:24, 14 November 2017

"It's tough trying to make it out of The Pit. Many have never returned from The Pit." - Kirk Fogg (host of Legends of The Hidden Temple) on the evils of The Pit.

The Pit serves as the Youtube Poop equivalent of Hell. The Pit has two noteable differences from its Biblical counterpart: You can leave The Pit, and there is no "good" counterpart of The Pit. Regardless of whether a character is a hero or a villain, they go to The Pit when they DIE. There is no Poop version of Heaven. The physical location of The Pit seems to be Sparta. Leonidas seems to kick anyone who pisses him off into here. The first person to ever return from a trip to The Pit was, in fact, Ganon, whom is arguably the Pit's second most frequent visitor. When asked what the pit feels like, Ganon responded by simply stating that it "burns".

Though most residents of the Pit must fight a evil monster to leave the pit, some are doomed to spend the eternity there....

It has been revealed that Lavalisms can survive falling into The Pit. By comparison, Gaston, who was not a Lavalism, did not survive being thrown into The Pit. Despite that, however, he has since made a triumphant return to the tavern.

Pit is also the name of a kid from the video game Kid Icarus who has wings and a bow with which to shoot things.

This is not Pit. This is that annoying little bastard Kid Icarus from that stupid Captain N cartoon-icus.

Don't confuse this with The Pitt (Pittsburgh) from Fallout 3. Though both are eerily similar...

Also don't confuse this with hell (in Doom).

The closest thing to a Hell on Earth is Big Bill Hell's.

Before you enter the Pit, you must cross the River Styx.
