While [[Deepercutt]] may be ''a'' notable [[YoutubeYouTube Poop]]-er, he sure is far from being the only one.
 
Nicholas Walstrom, better known by his '''[http://www.youtube.com/user/WalrusGuy WalrusguyWalrusGuy]''' moniker, is pretty much one of the most notable poopers, and according to some fans, there is quite a wide array of reasons the quality of his work might even ''surpass'' that of Deepercutt himself.

Nicholas Walstrom, better known by his '''[http://www.youtube.com/user/WalrusGuy Walrusguy]''' moniker, is pretty much one of the most notable poopers, and according to some fans, there is quite a wide array of reasons the quality of his work might even ''surpass'' that of Deepercutt himself.
 
He rose to further fame when [[Screwed by the Lawyers|his account got suspended by]] Colgate because of his nasty [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] of the company's mascot, the anthropomorphic hare dentist Dr. Rabbit, ''[[Crowning Moment of Awesome|only for him to come back with even more Dr. Rabbit-centered poops as a response.]]''
 
Unfortunately, not long after Colgate realized they shouldn't be so strict about the (mis)treatment of their "beloved" mascot, [[Walrus Guy]] was hacked by anonymous [[Hate Dumb|hater]](s), resulting in his account being closed. He did return, but with all of his videos gone, and a message that he would quit making poops. His final work, [[Shout-Out|"One More Final:]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|I need You]][[YouTube|(tube]] [[YoutubeYouTube Poop|Poop)"]], is a truly [[Tear Jerker|gut-wrenching]] farewell to the entire world of [[YoutubeYouTube Poop]].
 
The WalrusGuy account still exists as of 2011, but is mostly devoted to posting random stuff that wouldn't fit in on Walstrom's other page, NAveryW. He's currently working on his own [[Web Animation]]/[[Web Comic]] series called ''[[Enthalpy]]''.
 
However, despite the fact that WalrusGuy's formerly uploaded Poops aren't on his account anymore, FEAR NOT! A particularly dedicated fan of his created an account, called '''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130702053625/http://www.youtube.com/user/WalrusGuyMEMORIAL WalrusGuyMEMORIAL]''', in order to re-upload said lost poops, thus allowing new generations of poopers to have an example to use as a basis for their work. And unlike what happened with fellow former Pooper [[I Am the GangIAmTheGang]] - who doesn't even want his own, old poops to be re-uploaded again [[Keep Circulating the Tapes|(not that other users such as IAmThaGang or ImTheGang care)]] - Walstrom himself [[So Proud of You|greenlighted the new channel.]]

=== Walrusguy used the following tropes in his works: ===
 
{{creatortropes}}
* [[Author Appeal]]: There are ''tons'' of [[Shout-Out|shout outs]] in his poops, but [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]] undoubtedly stands above the others.<ref> However, to list the other things Walrusguy is fond of: [[The Super Mario Brothers Super Show]] (mostly [[Super Mario World (animation)|Super Mario World]]), [[Hotel Mario]] (obviously), [[The Legend of Zelda CDI Games]] (ditto), [[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]], [[Ratatoing]] [[Video Brinquedo|and the like]], Dr. Rabbit (even more than before, after the whole Colgate thing), [[iCarly]], [[Adult Swim]] stuff [[Lampshade Hanging|("There's a lot of stuff from Adult Swim, isn't it?")]] and finally [[Death Note]]</ref>.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: "One More Final: I Need You(tube Poop)." Both Link and Mama Luigi overcome their grief for the loss of their loved ones. It's also a bittersweet end for Walrusguy's pooping career, who made it clear he will never return to poop, thus [[End of an Age|ending an era in]] [[YoutubeYouTube Poop]].
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Luigi in the fittingly named poop "Luigi Just Won't Accept The Truth" just doesn't seem to realize that he won't be getting "lotsa spaghetti" at their picnic, even ''after'' Mario tells him that the Princess can't make spaghetti.
{{quote|'''Luigi:''' Well, maybe a Koopa will give us his!
'''Mario:''' No...don't you get the hint? }}
* [[Continuity Creep]]: Especially near the end, culminating in the [[Grand Finale]]. Little consistences such as the Zelda group's dynamic and Dr. Rabbit's lust for Carmen and hatred for black people (particularly [[Butt Monkey|Tandi]]) piled up and became more established, resulting in what could almost be called a canon.
* [[Deconstruction]]: Walrusguy's last poop, "One More Final: I Need You(tube Poop)" was a [[Deconstructor Fleet]] ''for the entire [[YoutubeYouTube Poop]] world''.<ref> Although [[I Am the GangIAmTheGang]] did something similar with "The Return To Gamelon: The Final Cutscene".</ref> Kinda flittingly, given [[End of Evangelion|the deconstructory fleet the poop is named after.]] You can guess [[Tear Jerker|to which effect.]]
* [[Dissonant Serenity]]: [[Perpetual Smiler|Dr. Rabbit.]] See [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] on the YMMV page.
* [[Downer Ending]]: The "Bowser the Foodstealer" trilogy unexpectedly concludes with one, which doubles as a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Futurama]](It even uses the same music in the scene it's making a shout-out to). {{spoiler|The White House has been thrown into the Mushroom Sea by Bowser, Kootie Pie takes over America, all the kids in America have been turned to stone and Gwonam and Link continue waiting for Dr. Rabbit, the only person who can defeat Bowser. He never shows up.}}
