CHICAGO, May 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 25, 2021 at 1:00pm EST, Gary Brolsma, the creator behind the viral "Numa Numa" video, Christopher "Randall" Gordon, the creator of "The Crazy Nastya** Honey Badger," and Jordan Scott, creator of the "Two Pretty Best Friends" TikTok, will be releasing the NFTs representing their videos on OpenSea through a partnership with NetGems.

Each NFT is "1 of 1" and contains an embedded video from each creator that certifies the NFT as the only copy to ever be released and backed by the original artist. Further, these NFTs will be the only original videos to exist on the internet; Brolsma's Numa Numa video was previously removed from its original posting site, Newgrounds, and the creators behind the "Two Pretty Best Friends" TikTok and the "The Crazy Nastya** Honey Badger" video will be removing their videos from their respective platforms at the end of the auction.

These NFTs are the first of many historic internet videos that will be released as part of the NetGems NFT collection, which is viewable on OpenSea.
