Overview

Rick Astley himself dancing to the Rick Roll.

A Rick Roll is a trap involving an amazing, yet bullshitty lie (like, lets say, having Leon S. Kennedy who's most famous for being in Resident Evil 4 become a playable character in Killer 7 as an example) to lure unsuspecting people to the Rick Astley video "Never Gonna Give You Up". People have not been rickrolling as much lately, but you should still stay on guard. If you are daring, you can watch it below.

Recently, this song has been getting mash-ups by other bands and musicians, such as Michael Jackson with his Bad song and Nirvana with their Smells Like Teen Spits Spirits song. Barack Obama has also done a cover called the "Barack Roll".

How to tell if a video is a Rick Roll

  • It is approximately 3:33 minutes long.
  • It is titled "Unlock (character) in Super Smash Bros. Brawl".
  • The title is something offensive and absurd, such as "King Harkinian busts up some niggers".
  • The example stated above from the overview.
  • If it's titled 'Meet the Medic' (there is not yet one)
  • If it's titled something not very possible to film, like a giant hadron collider in action
