Let it be understood that all emirps come in pairs, say (p, q) where the number of (decimal) integer digits of p and of q are identical, but p < q. Since, in the following, we are dealing with record large integers, I will explicitly state the value of q, the larger of the pair, followed by a linked p in square brackets.
Two days after the video, gamer Gelly Gelbertson found 10^10056+10^6692+10^5872+1 [p] (a 10057-digit term in OEIS A393530). Another two days and Vishwath Ganesan discovered 10^20000+518406362*10^9996+1 [p] (a 20001-digit emirp). As Vish's record was not initially noted beyond his PrimeGrid Discord chat, it created, unfortunately, a large number of claims of record that were (being fewer than 20001 digits and coming after February 20) not actually records. That included a 10069-digit (still not proven) random emirp made possible by AI.

Well guys, n = 11111 was just a math exercise for me, but now the challenge is accepted!
