[looks intently at viewer] It costs four hundred thousand dollars to fire this weapon...for twelve seconds." Heavy: [Laughs] Heavy: [Checks the barrel of his Minigun] "Oh my god, who touched Sascha? Alright...Who touched my gun!?" Heavy: "Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe, [sniff] maybe. I've yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet."

Notes
- As the first 'experimental' Meet the Team video, the ending screen features the outdated official group picture of the classes and there is no introductory 'Meet the Heavy' title card. However, the alternate language, TF2 Official Blog and the Valve YouTube versions of the video have had these features added to make them consistent with the newer videos.
- The area where the Heavy is firing his Minigun is in the first stage of the Attack/Defend control point map Dustbowl, where he is standing on the large rock just outside of BLU spawn.
- The Heavy fires his Minigun for exactly twelve seconds.
- The Heavy's Minigun uses the old muzzle-flash in the video; it now has a softer appearance. This is because Valve's particle system was still being worked on.[1]
- The place where the Heavy fires from is, in the real game, not accessible to him unless he is blasted up by explosives.
- The title card displays "COPYRIGHT LOLOLOL" on the bottom right corner, a recurring joke throughout the "Meet the Team" videos.
- The Heavy's shoulder badge in this video is his original skull and crossbones design. It was later changed to the current fist emblem.
- A new version of Meet the Heavy was released on November 19 2009 on EA's website, with updated models and engine effects. However, it has not replaced the official one on the TF2 Official Blog or in the video store on Steam.[2]
- In this video the RED and BLU are shown to be roughly equal and killing each other in almost equal numbers. This is in contrast to later videos where team RED are shown to easily walkover their BLU counterparts, some of which have a single RED team member destroying all, or most of, the BLU team by themselves.
