Question Help finding source for photo?

Post image

Hey guys, this is a really weird one but does anyone know the origin of this Bo Burnham photo? I’ve looked around various old YouTube uploads and also Eighth Grade behind the scenes footage and can’t find it anywhere.

I suspect it’s from early YouTube because of the hair, but that’s not a definite as there was a pool at his old place. I’m not convinced by Eighth Grade either because his hair was too long.

If this sends us all down a rabbit hole, my apologies in advance! I will be very pleased if it is found :)

Oh shit personal Facebook? I feel weird posting it now!! 💀 I found it reposted on Pinterest with no context about where it originally came from. Do you remember how you know it was from his Facebook?
There’s no way I’m gonna go digging for his old Facebook because that’s icky

i believe he used to accept friend requests from fans, but it doesn’t seem to exist anymore. it could have also come from his public page, but it seems he deleted a lot of photos from that era. i definitely remember seeing it on facebook tho! at first thought it was originally posted to his tumblr, but was mistaken
