Vsauce stuns fans with a surprise long-form video after a 2-year silence, announcing his return
Michael Stevens, better known online as the brain behind VSauce, has done the unthinkable. On July 15, 2025, after nearly two years without a full-length upload, he quietly dropped a brand-new video onto the VSauce channel without warning.
The internet, naturally, lost its mind.
Michael Stevens makes a comeback fans didn't see coming
Fans had almost accepted that the days of "Hey, VSauce. Michael here," were behind them. Since 2023, the main channel had only seen a few YouTube Shorts sprinkled in, which were just bite-sized clips that reminded subscribers the channel wasn't completely dead, just dormant.
All The Ghosts You Will Be
But this time, it wasn't a short or a community post. It was a full-fledged, vintage VSauce video, cleverly titled
All The Ghosts You Will Be
.
At 22 minutes long, it delivered the classic mix of deep questions, unexpected rabbit holes, and mind-warping thought experiments fans have missed dearly.
And just like that, after two years of silence, VSauce was trending again.
Fans go feral over the upload
The response? Instant. Explosive. Emotional. Within hours, the video crossed a million views. Comments flooded in like it was 2014 all over again.
For longtime followers of the channel, the return wasn't just nostalgic; it was personal. VSauce is not your ordinary science channel; it's
the
curiosity hub that helped define what smart YouTube could be.

And seeing it come back in full force felt like a reunion nobody expected, but everybody needed.
One video only? The return that raises more questions
Michael Stevens didn't say a word about what comes next. No teaser for the next video. No promise of a return to regular content. Not even a 'see you soon.'
Naturally, this left the VSauce community in a state of emotional whiplash. Was this a one-time drop? A slow reboot? Or is this just Michael doing what he's always done: disappear, reappear, and melt everyone's minds without explanation?
What we do know is that VSauce still has its spark.
The production value, writing, and pacing were peak Michael. If this is a new chapter, it's starting exactly where it left off, on top.
Where has Michael been all this time?
Though the main channel was quiet, Stevens hadn't vanished entirely. He remained active in Shorts, occasionally replied to fans on X (formerly Twitter), and made rare public appearances. But with no major uploads, fans were left wondering if the legendary YouTube educator had moved on.
Turns out, he was just taking his time. And if this latest video is anything to go by, it was
well
worth the wait.

He finally saw himself as a hero In a heartfelt interview with Hello! Indo-Arabia, Salman shared, 'I was about 18 years old, and there was a truly memorable moment during the shoot for the song Kabootar Ja Ja Ja when I suddenly knew that this was the role for me. During several narrations, I'd imagine Jackie Shroff or Anil Kapoor in those roles, but I could never actually see myself doing big films. That moment was the first time I really felt, 'Yes, I can do this'. I had tears in my eyes.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo A letter straight from the heart After the film's grand success, Salman reached out to his fans through an open letter.
