| '''''Copeland's Herobrine Stream''''' refers to a sighting of the mythical ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft Minecraft]'' character Herobrine by Brocraft streamer Copeland in 2010. The stream was among the first videos of Herobrine, as he had only appeared in still images prior to that. Although he later revealed the incident to be a hoax, the stream is credited with popularizing the myth into mainstream gaming. Screenshots from the incident and a re-creation have been released, but the original video has never been found, nor have other recordings of it.
