Interview: Leeroy Jenkins

Click To Play

We have more BlizzCon 07 footage that’s going to come out, but I couldn’t resist publishing this interview now! FYI, there’s an F-word thrown in during some of the game footage, so it might be NSFW for some of you. For those that don’t know, Leeroy is definitely the most infamous WoW celebrity/character in the history of the game! For more info on Leeroy, see his page at Mahalo. Thanks to Tyler and Conrad for putting this together!

UPDATE: Yes, I know it’s fake. Yes, I knew it at the time. Do I care? Not really. The Internet is serious business, folks.

You think his fame is over?

Everyone who ever heard the name Leroy Jenkins, will never ever forget it as long as they live. Sure he probably wont have his real name (Ben Schultz) written next to Thomas Jefferson on some memorial but he’ll be more famous than most

Certainly has been for alot longer than 15 minutes now.

I still don’t get what makes this funny. It is not like the whole crew “had” to run in to save his ass.

gee – come on mike? do you play WoW?
granted – what you’d normally do is just let the noob die, don’t get into combat.. or he could of bubble-hearthed..
but it’s just so damn funny, the whole sight of it. we’ve all been in that “OH SHI-” position before where everything lags up and you see a huge zerg of mobs then you are down…

anyway – this guy has become immortalized – no way he will ever be forgotten..

I want proof that this is really LeeRoy himself! For all I know this could just be a publicity stunt from the interviewer (although a funny one) or just a random guy tricking the interviewer. Make him prove that it is rly him!

That’s right, pallies are the class that make WoW history. Uther the Lightbringer, Leeroy Jenkins, etc.

Do ppl actually belive that this wasn’t intentional?
First of all, noone needs that kind of tactics just to get to one boss.
Do you guys have a special person that calculates the risk of everything in your guild? Seems like a meaningless job.
The warrior that is recording is running around, collecting even more whelps, even those that are in the corner way out of the danger.
Then he uses shieldwall runs up and collect 2 elite dragonkins. This is and will always be a set up.

So, a couple of days ago we tried to down Onyxia with a tank named Leroy. Everyone said it’s bad luck, and guess what? We wiped. God dammit, Leroy!

Was fun though.

Merkin, c’mon. Does this look like CNN? Lighten up. Also, learn to construct a sentence.

Of course he is normal, why he shouldn’t?
But I bet some of his guildies that were with him at that dungeon are not so normal to be seen in public.
