Summed up as "a world where Black Mesa is 100% more Scottish", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdx7_fI_KRc Demo Mesa]] is a ''VideoGame/HalfLife''/''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' crossover parody that loosely follows the first ten minutes of the former game but with the particular twist of every character being replaced with the [[TheAlcoholic Demoman]]. Drunken HilarityEnsues.
The short was made by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/antoine35DeLak Antoine Delak]], who is responsible for the equally ridiculous ''Machinima/HeavyIsDead'' and ''Machinima/GorgeousFreeman.''

!!Demo Mesa contains examples of...
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: It's an honest-to-God ''miracle'' that it took the Resonance Cascade for this version of Black Mesa to finally go to Hell.
* {{Bathos}}: Two clear examples in rapid succession:
** G-Demo's appearance; Demo!Freeman is transported to a WhiteVoidRoom, the soundtrack goes slow and ominous and G-Demo slowly approaches him. Once G-Demo is right next to Demo!Freeman, [[MoodWhiplash the music cuts out and he yells "YA FOOKED UP!" and slaps him.]]
** The post-Cascade montage; Demo teleports back into Black Mesa, where we see how almost everyone died. At the end, Demo!Freeman just goes "Eh, whatever!" and starts drinking again.
* ComedicSociopathy: Demo!Freeman murders a fellow employee in cold blood for his HEV suit, and at the end is completely indifferent to the slaughter of the rest after the Resonance Cascade.
* DeathSeeker: A smiling Demo scientist announces his wish for death in a very short InnerMonologue. Ironically, he's one of the few to still be alive at the end of the short.
* EverythingsLouderWithBagpipes: The majority of the video is backed by the ''Half-Life'' track ''Klaxon Beat''... overlaid with ''Scotland the Brave'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPPnHs6F7fE played through a vibrato filter]].
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: The short is ''rife'' with this. Every room and corridor is filled with unconscious Demomen, broken bottles, and escaped monstrosities.
* FunWithSubtitles: Not only are they listed as Scottish Gaelic, but they often contradict what's happening on screen - for example, Demo!Freeman yelling "Shut the fuck up, bitch!" is rendered as "Please cease your prattles, jakey!"
* HandshakeSubstitute: Demo!Freeman and the guard perform an elaborate version of this complete with high-fives, arm clasps, butt-rubbing, car hijacking, bank-robbery, and van-crashing after the former returns with an HEV suit.
* IncompetenceInc: This version of Black Mesa. ''Where do we begin?!'' Everything runs on booze, drunken shenanigans abound, and the experiments involve threatening birds at gunpoint. [[RuleOfFunny Don't think about it too hard.]]
* KillEmAll: Demo!Freeman and the suicidal scientist are the only apparent survivors of the Resonance Cascade.
* OnlySaneMan: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. One of the scientists in the Anti-Mass Spectrometer observatory can be seen (presumably) working hard typing on a computer whilst the rest are lying about in varying states of consciousness.
** Likely averted, since one can hear the Pornhub Community intro faintly playing in the background as the scientist is typing, and see the Pornhub logo reflected in his shades.
* PrecisionFStrike: The Demo!G-man's only line, to Demo!Freeman.
-->'''Demo!G-Man''': Ya fucked up!
* ShoutOut: A fair few, as to be expected of Delak's works:
** When Demo!Freeman is looking for his HEV suit, he reenacts the "Where's my super suit?!" scene from ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'', all while wearing a Frozone mask.
** In a FunnyBackgroundEvent, a scientist is announced to have [[WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty transformed himself into a pickle]].
*** Said pickle-scientist is also shown in the aftermath of the Resonance Cascade.
** Demo!Freeman at one point passes two scientists listening to a Demoman version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpbbuaIA3Ds ''Money'']] by Music/PinkFloyd whilst studying light reflecting through a prism, which itself references the band's cover art for ''Music/TheDarkSideOftheMoon''.
** One of the Demo scientists walks out of the Anti-Mass Spectrometer room [[Machinima/HalfLifeButTheAIIsSelfAware showing a passport to the guard]].
* StylisticSuck: There's ''just'' enough genuinely good animation sprinkled across the video to remind one that Antoine does know how to animate, between the madness and ragdoll-flailing.
* TheUnintelligible: Practically ''every'' character is this half the time. Special mention goes to Demo!Freeman's boss, whose burping and rambling explanation of their latest experiment stumps even Demo!Freeman.
