Western Digital Troll & Pen Giveaway Winner Announcement Linus Tech Tips

The video captures Linus Tech Tips announcing the Western Digital Troll and Pen giveaway winner. Linus builds suspense by noting both good news and bad news, revealing that the troll prize is being awarded along with a pen found in the office. He confirms the format by explaining that the winner is chosen from a spreadsheet of past comments, using random.org to generate a winning cell number. Throughout the segment, Linus repeatedly emphasizes the suspense by scrolling through the list of entrants and recounting near-misses, generating anticipation for the final selection. When the random draws continue to miss, the tension remains as viewers watch the process unfold in real time. Ultimately, Linus reveals Zara Galiza as the winner, and invites the winner to message him to arrange delivery of the prize, while thanking everyone for participating and noting that he will continue to run giveaways. The video blends humor with a straightforward, procedural approach to selecting a winner, anchored by the playful “troll” prop left in the room and the makeshift prize bundle of a WD Troll figure and a random pen. The overall tone remains light and engaging, underscoring the community aspect of Linus Tech Tips giveaways and ending with a courteous acknowledgment of participants’ efforts and comments.
