This is the best Garry's Mod machnima i've seen in a long time, DasMatze has made some great videos in the past, but this... this is amazing, i'm mostly at a loss for words, so here are the links to the video

Just thought i'd update this post with trivial stuffs from the video
Part 1
When the camera pans across the books that the Sniper chooses from, the books on the shelf are as follow:
Top 529 Kama Sutra Positions for Garden Gnomes
The Art of
Farm by Sun
ZooSue Them All by R. Kotick
What is Beauty by
N.G.--- by
G. FreemanThe Jake Eats A Pie! by
G. L'adosHow to Outsmart Bullet by Saxton Hale
The Never Ending Story IV -The End-
A Touching Story
Heavy Birthday
When the camera shows the book, the words start out English but change into a Foreign language after it mentions what happens a few seconds after the transition
At 1:04, the Heavy turns into a low quality version of himself
At 1:07, the message on the bottom says "You found birthday! (press alt+F4 to continue)
At 2:18, Saxton Hale fixes the window, only to go flying through it again
At 3:53, at some point of the camera switching between the Heavy and the cookie, a close-up of Gave Newell's face is seen
At 8:28, the Heavy is reading the Garry's Mod for Dummies book, but it's upside-down
The blurry paper at 9:18 says "Congratulations! I can't see stuff!"
The store at 9:33 is an obvious parody of the name Heavy Weapons Guy
Things to note starting at 9:50 are as follow:
A sign with a BLU Heavy that says "Buy some more!", a play on words of the Heavy's line "Cry some more!"
The Headless Horseless Horsemann has a dead Medic in his shopping cart
The sign that says Jarbucks is a play on words of the name Starbucks
The Police officers at 10:14 have a Med Kit and a green balloon with the Half Life 2 logo on it
The Heavy's money shown at 10:37 is one 500 Monopoly dollar bill, a slightly torn piece of paper drawn on to make it look like money, and two change
At 10:58, the button on the wall is labeled 'Music' while text above it says "In case of action, press button"
At 11:53, the motto for the store changed from what it was at 9:33
At 12:47, the Engineer has a reflection in the window of the building behind him, Ellis seems to be lacking a reflection
Part 2
At 2:43, the road sign on the left says "Interstate x00FF5A38 Somewhere" and the one on the right says "Singleplayer gm_heavybirthday2 127.0.0.1 01/32 players Not VAC secured"
At 2:51, the FOAD billboard prop from Meet the Sniper is used here
At 3:27, the road sign says "..::$uper1337h4XXX0rK1ll498s::.. ~{KiLl AnD dEsTrOy PrOtEcTeD!!!11}~ gm_construct 531.800.8 02/24 players VAC secured"
At 4:18, Garry Newman bans the Spy who is disguised as the Heavy, but it's actually the Spy so does he get banned or does the Heavy get banned because the Spy was disguised as the Heavy? D:
At 5:44, DasMatze tricks all of his viewers that the video player has stopped playing (i was fooled by this)
At 11:40, the Scout gets scared, covers his face and looks away because rainbows make him cry (for a split second you can hear him starting to cry)
At 11:45, like in the beginning with the book, only this time, the words go back to being English when it says what the Sniper is saying
At 11:50, the RED Heavy is over by a Burger stand in the background to the right
