众所周知，弹珠属于是大家家里都会有的一种小玩具，但是我们这一代人已经不知道这种球类运动的玩法了。父母那一辈应该还是知道的，然而他们遗憾地告诉我们适合玩弹珠的场地已经不在了。确实，在这一个快速发展（内卷）的时代，三维弹珠（那个叫弹球pinball）都已经被尘封于历史了。

我对于弹珠的印象是路边会有那种机子，一元钱买几个弹珠，然后用弹珠玩游戏，达成指定目标还是给弹珠，所以基本上最后会玩到回一点本带着弹珠回家，但是回到家后的弹珠也不知道怎么玩，只好放在一个收纳盒中。

然而国外有位小哥（老营销号了）拥有自己的奇思幻想，这很可能是因为他家里的弹珠十分的多，他开始以颜色样式给他们分类。既然分类了，pvp找不到人，为什么不自创故事模式呢？所以，

Jelle's marble runs在2006年底12月被开创起来，并逐渐发扬光大。（官网截图上也展示了）最早的视频会比较硬核，包括如何搭一些弹珠轨道来自娱自乐，后来他发现好像没多少人家里有那么多弹珠，便开始搞弹珠队伍，写写background故事构建弹珠ip，现在有不止20支队伍了。

各具特色的logo，以及不同的背景故事。比如Hazers就来自中国昆仑山脉，每个运动圆都带有那里常见的颜色，擅长竞速。之后就有周边可卖了，T恤衫，马克杯，或是直接把运动圆亲戚买回家（哦，官网上说如果要买找他的上游训练基地，他不做运动圆拐卖业务）

28 December 2010: Jelle posts one of his first truly viral video： "Big Marble machine: 1000 marbles!" There would be several other videos of the "1000 marbles" machines, commissioned marble runs all with Jelle's iconic 1000 marble lever: once that number of marbles falls on to the lever, the mechanism tips over.

7 June 2013: Jelle posts a popular "marble mosaic video": "1000 subs special: Marble Run 1000 Marbles test." He would make another mosaic for 10K subs and one for 100K subs, the latter of which has now been reuploaded to the new channel.

15 April 2015: Jelle posts the "Marble Race: World Cup 2015" video. This is probably the first marble race from Jelle where multiple teams compete across several different tracks, from a wooden track to Quercetti Skyrail. The video would get millions of views and Jelle makes a 2016 World Cup video next year.

31 May 2015: Jelle publishes "Big Marble Run Machine: 11.000 Marbles!" After building the so-called "Knikker Tsunami," Jelle posts the footage and it goes viral, flooding his channel with subscribers in an unprecedented way. This video remains on his new channel, always remaining one of the channel's most watched videos.

The Marble Racing Era

19 September 2015: Jelle publishes "Marble Race: Longest Sand Marble Run Ever!" This is what's now known as the "750 feet Sand Marble Rally" and Red Number 3's first victory. At this time, marble racing remains the channel's secondary focus, with Jelle prioritizing large-scale marble runs like his annual Christmas builds.Near the end of 2015: Jelle changes his channel's name to "Jelle's Marble Runs."

27 February 2016: The 750 feet sand marble rally is crossposted to r/videos, gaining thousands of upvotes. This reddit thread remains one of the most important primary documents in JMR history, as in this thread Greg Woods (u/KE0BVT) hears about Jelle for the first time. He hosts his voice-over of the race on his personal channel and posts it as a comment.

10 March 2016: After reaching out to Greg, Jelle reposts the 750 feet sand marble rally with the commentary track on his own channel.

6 April 2016: YouTuber Ozzy Man Reviews makes one of his two voice-overs of Jelle's races. This first video delivers many views to the source video "Thrilling Ball Race + Easter Eggs Marble Race." As of April 2020, the source video is reuploaded to Jelle's new channel.

8 April 2016: With the positive reception of the 750 feet race, Jelle plans a second 500 feet sand marble rally, but with more marbles out the gate. He asks for name suggestions on YouTube and Facebook. Most names for the SMR athletes, like Comet, Pollo Loco and Dragon's Egg, arise from these suggestions.

15 April 2016: The 500 Feet Sand Marble Rally is posted, with Greg's commentary. While this video seems to go viral on social media, it does not translate to a huge amount of views for Jelle on that specific video.

10 June 2016: The first Sand Marble Rally series begins as Jelle posts the video "Sand Marble Race: Qualification for tournament". The first half of the season lasts until July 22, after which 13 of the 33 marbles were eliminated and the field was slimmed down to the current 20-marble lineup. The second half of the season lasts from September to November.

我来总结一下，最早这个号是以弹珠的量取胜的，做过1000个在大型装置上滚动，之后又做过11000个弹珠。从2015年开始，弹珠世界杯开整了，他也改了如今这个名字。给自己的比赛找来了配音，这个声音延续到了今天。

16年那个盛夏，里约热内卢举办了第三十一届夏季奥运会，他也紧跟时事，推出了弹珠奥运会。但真正让他粉丝数起飞的是在2017年的第二届弹珠奥运会，新场景，新内容，更好玩的玩法，更专业的解说（解说也需要磨练）六周涨粉4万，之后他们出过外景，又搞过冬季奥运会（许多新项目），还有B级联赛和类F1的赛事。

疫情又让他们涨粉许多，在距今14个月前粉丝数达到100万，丹麦的电视上甚至真的有了弹珠竞速节目。不过国内看不到reddit，YouTube或是twitter，应该也没什么人会去patreon上支持他们。而在B站上，他们也没有那么出名，粉丝数只有区区18万，不过人气还是很高的。

B站up主：Super也好君的“这也能解说”如今解说了四期弹珠（希望以后还有），最高播放量达到过700多万，最低也不少于200万。底下的评论简直就是反讽饭圈化过了头。一般的只是“要尿检，绝对收钱了”。有些很爱编的开始写“小”故事，甚至直接引来官方。
