if people fake their deaths for views, why is it such a terrible thing? don't people regularly make 9/11 jokes online and 6000 people minimum died in hell fire that day? Why does it matter? Views get money, i rather lie online than be a whore and sell my body online. UA-camrs arent your friend, they don't care typically and this is just a career for the ones who do it and get paid. Entertainment is the goal, not realism.
Switzerland does not actually have privacy laws. Switzerland is used as a money laundering country do to its legality to well sell stollen data legally and ability to legally steal peoples money. Its a pirate style of government and that is why scumbags use it. Any time some tells you that Switzerland has privacy laws that protect people yea do not trust them at all because they are lying their ass off. Switzerland is the money laundering capital of the world. A Swiss bank is un effected by governmental laws which means that the government will not protect the use of any bank at all but at least the government can not steal your information except for they can and will. The reason people use Switzerland is because the money can not be taxed because the money is not protected at all. Switzerland is a money laundering country not a safe place at all.
I find it ironic that were Behind the Meme quit, Lesson In Meme Culture rise and supass him eventhought he didn't recieved any hate or backlash (haven't look into his channel history) per say. Sure there are people that hate LIMC but not to the point of doxxing the guy!
Back then, memes were seen as knowledge of few. There was Meme economy, disgusting to even think about such stupidity. BTM killed it, not just by spreading the knowledge but by spreading it childishly to the """wrong""" people. while LIMC rise up, he spread it not childishly and the whole meme economy become a dead meme itself. I Wish Kyle the best
I still don't know how to feel about sketchek, I was happy when he got back because his videos are impeccable but lying about your death is probably one of the worst thing to lie about.
at least he didn't scam his audience for money and admitted to his lies himself instead of being caught in them by someone else. Much better outcome than most of the others who've tried a similar thing, which is probably why it's so much easier for people to forgive him
Sketchek at least had the guts to admit to his lies fully and explain himself, I'm glad that he managed to get himself out of this messy pile of shit that is gaming (well, even though he gamed before gaming became a messy pile of shit), hopefully he's doing well, unlike any other of those clowns.
Yeah, tbh, his reasonings are reasonable: wanting to get out of a community which is starting to tax him is something a lot of people want to do, but when your that big, it’s kinda hard. Wanting to go out with a bang also makes sense, alot of people want to do that, and have their acts remembered decades from there deaths. While faking death is a drastic turn, it’s also one that would give a clean slate: you can fully disconnect yourself from your last persona, and start fresh. Since really, if u say your just gonna leave, people are still going to harass irl and online for the past, especially if your a big shot, your just never going to get away from that. By disappearing with no trace, you can enjoy your time again, and move past the persona you put up on the internet, instead of being trapped by it.
People have been pulling this shit since the early days of internet chatrooms and forums. I know someone who faked terminal illness only to have it revealed they were pulling this con as TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE. It's disgusting. It's manipulative. It's something only the shittiest people even contemplate doing.

Am I crazy or did Behind the Meme not do anything wrong here? People assumed a highly edited series meant suicide, but it doesn’t seem like he did anything out of control, he was bullied and was ready for the channel to die.
Yeah, I thought the same. To me, it didn't even looked like he meant for people to interpret that he was un-aliving himself in real life (and THEN edit and upload the video).
I really don't care. None of these "influencers" are real. People need to separate the "art" (HEAVY QUOTES) from the "artist" (HEAVY QUOTES). I don't really care about any of these "influencers" as people, since I don't know them, I don't care to know them, and I'll never know them.

Never forget XtremeGamerz. These were the pair of brothers who said one of the brothers were dying, but he actually wasn’t. He had something that COULD kill him, but it was imminent nor was it happening then and there. They did it for views and then got called out by Uncle Charles (Moist Critikal) and then deleted the video.

In all fairness, the people that pushed him to that point took it too far by dislike bombing every video he put out and spamming negative comments and doxxing his grandma. All over fucking INTERNET MEMES.
In reality it’s acting, and it’s a series of videos to express his mental health through video and acting. The reason it fits here is because he only disclosed it afterwards that it was just an expression of how he’s feeling, but he did so swiftly.
@Mythical4227 I'd argue that editing and uploading the video after him being dead and the (kinda) message at the end sort of imply he's not dead and that it was simply artistic expression. Also the fact the videos were uploaded days apart when they occured on the same night supposedly also imply it was a narrative. It even had a strong and hard hitting message that I honestly hope hit home with a lot of people leaving vile criticism in the comments section continuously.
I'm going to be honest, BehindtheMeme was overhated. The fact that people who were "active memers" didn't have to respond like that, saying that he's ruining meme culture by introducing memes to people who were genuinely interested in memes but didn't know what they exactly were. I'm not saying Bryce wasn't in the wrong, because faking suicide is incredibly low and is a slap to the face towards people who had suicidal thoughts.
I mean, he uploaded the video, and it was edited, following supposedly him being dead. Even the end of the video said kinda. Then the very next day uploaded a video explaining it all. I dont even think he deserves to be on this list.

yeah, i agree. i think if your humor hinges on "nobody tell them!! lol" then i guess congrats on still thinking playing keepaway with a short kid's pencil bag is funny? people really fucking hated explainingthejoke on tumblr too and he eventually quit posting. didn't fake his death as far as i know
As someone on the NoPixel server, I knew of the fake death in the community. Kinda wild to have someone talk about it. Also, you kept calling Koil "Koli", but put his proper Twitch name up there anyway. Small mistake, but it happens. Love the vids, keep up the great work 🙂
It would help if you didn't switch from your script to the ad break on the same breath. It honestly sounds like this: "The fact that there was some activity on his Steam and UA-cam accounts gave people the impression that Sketchek was still alive let me introduce you to today's sponsor, Proton." While I appreciate that you're making condensed documentaries and put out your info without wasting your audience's time, some pauses between segments could help slower people like me understand you better. It took me a minute to realize that SAV and Sketchek are different people and you've already switched to the next story. It also felt weird to get an ad break right in the middle of a story, while you have five stories in this video.
You’ve got a new sub from me! I love it when I find more channels that do documentary type videos like this and to make it even better you usually cover people I’ve never heard of! Keep up the good work ❤

I hate how when some UA-camrs learn of death their first thought is "FREE CLOUT" Edit: especially since Techno's death it has started to seem like an even worse thing to fake.
As someone who’s lost so many people and gone thru so much, this video made me so f**king mad I’d go to prison if I saw a lot of these people in person
miss KittyTV so much. imagine the kind of content he would be putting out now if he was still with us. Honestly his videos were a big part of my early online identity and introduction to internet culture. RIP Kitty you are missed and loved
I honestly respect the decisions made by Sketchek for why he left his channel. Obviously, saying that he was dying was a poor decision in hindsight but if he really was having mental struggles and issues and was being genuine which his video seems to express pretty well that he is, I can support him and he should gain support. Mental health issues are so complex in and of itself but there's also so many different varieties of it that makes it so hard to treat, so really we should always be trying to help others with these issues. It takes a lot of guts to take a fall like that, admitting to doing such a bad publicity stunt for honestly a good reason in terms of personal gain that would actually help him in his mental health department and I think that's the part we should focus on.
PenguinSnail It is surprising to me that faking your death hasn't caused a lot of viewers on youtube to become sceptical anytime a video pops up claiming "youtuber is dead".

Tbh what Behind the memes did felt kinda right to me... getting a lots n lots of hate just for explaining memes..what if the hate made him really depressed. He might have took the wrong step as he portrayed in the video. Also his video was not for faking death coz he just uploaded it after editing n all.. also he clarified the very next day. He just wanted a change.
And he actually did it for awareness Saying if people are hateful to eachother it can lead to terrible things He wasn't in the wrong He didn't actually fake his death And what he did might have opened some peoples eyes to be better
Perhaps they were unaware of the real impacts their actions would have, but faking one's death is extreme and causes unnecessary emotional distress for viewers who genuinely care.
Out of all these, I remember Behind the Meme. One of my favorite channels at the time actually, since I was new to meme culture then and his explanations were so useful in understanding the memes I kept seeing. It's what helped me get into meme culture in the first place, since I understood the humor behind them now and wanted to make my own takes on them. So I found his channel valuable. It's too bad he decided to destroy the way he did.
Great video! but you made some mistake in the NoPixel segment @ 13:04, its not Koil voice it's Dasmehdi voice and the following clip it's indeed Koil voice but you called him Koli for some reason :)
Me and my grandma used to watch 1000 pound sisters together, and it seemed wholesome, (aside for the constant arguments.) She loved to laugh at the funny moments and it made some good memories. It sucks that The Amy and Tammy situation happened.
This is such an amazing video wish I could stomach the rest of the video but I got to the beginning of the SAVx story and I couldn't handle anymore thank you for this wonderful video and wish I could finish it
I remember about the whole sketchek thing when the Axtinguisher weapon got updated to balance it and had a really brief memorial with one of the weapon's new effects being named after him. Obviously this has been removed. But it does make my old-ish Australium Axtinguisher a bit more interesting.
it really shocks me how easily forgiven sketchek was, i can get wanting leave your gaming channel behind and wanting to move on to other things but that is no excuse to lie to your fans and make them think you were dead which i think is unforgivable.
Personally I wouldn’t ever forgive thanks to the confusing trauma he inflicted, but the most I can give him is that he didn’t do it for clout, but to gtfo. Trouble is, sort of like vtuber graduations, he had to do it in too Ultimate a way, and you can’t come back without hurting a lot of people. Speaking of vtubers he seems to be doing well anyways.
The BehindTheMeme situation was one of the dumbest things to ever come out of the internet. Here you have a guy who, by all intents and purposes, is just "explaining the joke" and everyone goes like he's literally satan or something. It was an idiotic mountain of elitism and gatekeeping that just didn't sit well with me. If you wanna gatekeep memes to someone, the guy explaining it to the "normies" is inoffensive compared to corpos trying to use them for advertising. There's some mobile game here on youtube whose ads are just the shittiest possible takes on popular macros
Biggest red flag ever is when she said she threw out the receipt. I live in Canada and recently went through a long and intense hospital stay. I didn't have to pay for it but I REALLY feel like if I had to pay for health care like people do in the US there is no way I would be throwing out the receipt.
Faking a death is so horrible. Even though you think that you're doing what's best because of all the hate, there are ALWAYS still those people out there that look up to you and your content. People that will CRY over your "death". Just be truthful if you're leaving UA-cam or make genuine content if you want views. Don't play with other's feelings because ultimately that will get you nowhere.
A wise old man once said to me, It isn't until the reaction that the outcome becomes clear, for the outcome is dependent on that reaction for it to truly reveal itself.
Hearing a creator admitting of lying and faking their death gives me hope because it means that they know they messed up. I’ve never heard of sketchtek but i do like how he admitted to lying and faking his death bc he realized how fucked up that was and went to apologize. It was fucked up but he apologized and won’t do it again. It’s never to late to apologize.
It's really funny seeing that this video's sponsor is proton mail, especially after watching a video covering about someone being stalked by a guy who used 3 different emails from said sponsor and what I can only assume at the moment, the proton mail is not all that it's cracked up to be
Maybe sometimes some you tubers wanna quit, because of different reasons like tired of uploading everyday, or genuine sickness or they dont find it fun anymore
The Savx one was wild, I used to watch a ton of GTARp, and Sav's character started interacting alot with person I watched. I remember the death announcement and I remember watching everything come out about it being fake months later. It was especially egregious because others who played in the server had died, at least one was self inflicted, and this liars name was added to their memorial in game. All because he got caught using an aimbot IN AN RP GAME. Perma bans are rarely even permanent in nopixel, it was just insane.
Hello I really like your content 😊 it's amazing how your channel grows! That's amazing 👏!! Your channel is amazing!!! I like your video's continue the great work ❤️👏💕!! And it's crazy how UA-camrs fake their deaths it's crazy 😨
just hearing about the Behind the meme situation made me realize how cult-like people have made memes... Like it's actually kind of scary how meme culture has formed into an unwritten rule of "Superior humor" in a lot of circles. Also the irony of these meme lovers being like "You're not funny!" when they have the audacity to be obsessed with little internet jokes and get upset when someone explains them or even finds them not that funny. I've seen more of these "I'm not offended by anything" mentality memelords get more unpleasantly upset over someone saying their screenshot of Shrek with words over it isn't that funny in their opinion. Enjoy memes and have fun sure, but please don't be a weird cultist about them. Don't get all upset if someone doesn't understand the meme or joke... that's just insane.
The one about Sketchek could have been avoided if he went “hey umm, I’m going to take a break and come back a few years, kay?” But no he chose “okay so I’m faking my death, bye”
I remember when Savx got banned and felt so ashamed and embarrassed that he was the butt of the nopixel community that he decided to fake his death. I actually cried when the news came out but once the truth was revealed I couldn't believe someone would go that far over a permaban. It also pissed me off bc the nopixel community has lost amazing rpers, and he disrespected and just shat all over their deaths. Smh. I'm glad Ramee kept it 💯 and didn't amuse his behavior.
UA-camr faking they own death is the most sadist and also the most stupidest thing, at what cost, you betray your own fan, you betray your own people, for what for what, a small little buck that going run out, a attention that probably run out in few year? Like a monkey swinging to tree to another, one day it going to fall and perish
The last one, I find odd people found distrust because we have seen some creators do get burn out or just Spiro down. Imagine if it was real, then those hater be happy showing how bad human are and the people that loved him will cry over it. The point was to his video is to show what could have happen.
the sketchek situation really tells me, the grind is never stop indeed, but your body and mind does. so to all my favorite youtubers, please, take rest
While I agree with you on the "faking your death to retire is dumb af" point You have to much faith in people to think people would understand 😂 there are some fucking unhinged losers out there
Thanks for watching! The channel has been growing super fast lately, really excited for the future. ❤

Also, you kept calling Koil "Koli", but put his proper Twitch name up there anyway. Small mistake, but it happens. Love the vids, keep up the great work 🙂
cant forget that sav did this after the devastating loss of Blue622. RIP Blue 💙💙💙
It would help if you didn't switch from your script to the ad break on the same breath. It honestly sounds like this:
"The fact that there was some activity on his Steam and UA-cam accounts gave people the impression that Sketchek was still alive let me introduce you to today's sponsor, Proton."
While I appreciate that you're making condensed documentaries and put out your info without wasting your audience's time, some pauses between segments could help slower people like me understand you better. It took me a minute to realize that SAV and Sketchek are different people and you've already switched to the next story.
It also felt weird to get an ad break right in the middle of a story, while you have five stories in this video.
You’ve got a new sub from me! I love it when I find more channels that do documentary type videos like this and to make it even better you usually cover people I’ve never heard of! Keep up the good work ❤

I hate how when some UA-camrs learn of death their first thought is "FREE CLOUT"
Edit: especially since Techno's death it has started to seem like an even worse thing to fake.
what is that pfp
@@shogg21 His profile picture can't be that bad- WHAT THE FU-
At this point we're pretty much living in a dystopia.
Respect to any creator who realizes how effing damaging being online 24/7 is.
As someone who’s lost so many people and gone thru so much, this video made me so f**king mad I’d go to prison if I saw a lot of these people in person
No you wouldn't lol
Watch out for the Internet tough guy over here 😂
miss KittyTV so much. imagine the kind of content he would be putting out now if he was still with us. Honestly his videos were a big part of my early online identity and introduction to internet culture. RIP Kitty you are missed and loved
2:18 Not sure I'd describe them as "Alive and 'well' "...
when he refers to them as completely healthy 🤣
2:18 Not sure I'd describe them as "Alive and 'well' "…
I honestly respect the decisions made by Sketchek for why he left his channel. Obviously, saying that he was dying was a poor decision in hindsight but if he really was having mental struggles and issues and was being genuine which his video seems to express pretty well that he is, I can support him and he should gain support. Mental health issues are so complex in and of itself but there's also so many different varieties of it that makes it so hard to treat, so really we should always be trying to help others with these issues. It takes a lot of guts to take a fall like that, admitting to doing such a bad publicity stunt for honestly a good reason in terms of personal gain that would actually help him in his mental health department and I think that's the part we should focus on.
I lost my husband on 20th September 2023 and the outpouring of love and support online was staggering...People care and that shouldn't be abused....
You make good videos
YOO BORZAH
You make good videos
The editing is great bro.

It is surprising to me that faking your death hasn't caused a lot of viewers on youtube to become sceptical anytime a video pops up claiming "youtuber is dead".

13:35 “Koli” got me so confused until I realized you had just spelled/pronounced it incorrectly. Haha.
My bad 😭
@@InternetAnarchist no worries! Simple/easily made mistake. Got a little chuckle out of it.
Love these videos. Always end up seeing stuff that I completely missed.
Tbh what Behind the memes did felt kinda right to me... getting a lots n lots of hate just for explaining memes..what if the hate made him really depressed. He might have took the wrong step as he portrayed in the video. Also his video was not for faking death coz he just uploaded it after editing n all.. also he clarified the very next day.
He just wanted a change.
And he actually did it for awareness
Saying if people are hateful to eachother it can lead to terrible things
He wasn't in the wrong
He didn't actually fake his death
And what he did might have opened some peoples eyes to be better
Perhaps they were unaware of the real impacts their actions would have, but faking one's death is extreme and causes unnecessary emotional distress for viewers who genuinely care.
its annoying how people will go to the extent of faking to die for views.
It’s sad how you can make a LIST of YT who faked their death
Gotta be the worst transition to an ad I’ve seen in a while 😭
2:05 - That's a new definition of completely healthy I am not familiar with!🤣
Out of all these, I remember Behind the Meme. One of my favorite channels at the time actually, since I was new to meme culture then and his explanations were so useful in understanding the memes I kept seeing.
It's what helped me get into meme culture in the first place, since I understood the humor behind them now and wanted to make my own takes on them. So I found his channel valuable.
It's too bad he decided to destroy the way he did.
The fact that there’s enough UA-camrs to make a list is just sad.
The editing is on point bro
Great video! but you made some mistake in the NoPixel segment @ 13:04, its not Koil voice it's Dasmehdi voice and the following clip it's indeed Koil voice but you called him Koli for some reason :)
Sketchek's story was fascinating. The weird puzzles, the translations.. very interesting stuff..
Me and my grandma used to watch 1000 pound sisters together, and it seemed wholesome, (aside for the constant arguments.) She loved to laugh at the funny moments and it made some good memories. It sucks that The Amy and Tammy situation happened.
This is such an amazing video wish I could stomach the rest of the video but I got to the beginning of the SAVx story and I couldn't handle anymore thank you for this wonderful video and wish I could finish it
Im glad Sketchek was honest with himself and his audience and apologised, at least
I remember about the whole sketchek thing when the Axtinguisher weapon got updated to balance it and had a really brief memorial with one of the weapon's new effects being named after him.
Obviously this has been removed. But it does make my old-ish Australium Axtinguisher a bit more interesting.
I find this title funny. As if not all UA-camrs who fake their death are already horrible. This is just "the worst" of them 💀
it really shocks me how easily forgiven sketchek was, i can get wanting leave your gaming channel behind and wanting to move on to other things but that is no excuse to lie to your fans and make them think you were dead which i think is unforgivable.
yeah. there's a difference between respecting him for apologizing for his lie going too far and outright forgiving him.
Personally I wouldn’t ever forgive thanks to the confusing trauma he inflicted, but the most I can give him is that he didn’t do it for clout, but to gtfo. Trouble is, sort of like vtuber graduations, he had to do it in too Ultimate a way, and you can’t come back without hurting a lot of people.
Speaking of vtubers he seems to be doing well anyways.
The BehindTheMeme situation was one of the dumbest things to ever come out of the internet. Here you have a guy who, by all intents and purposes, is just "explaining the joke" and everyone goes like he's literally satan or something. It was an idiotic mountain of elitism and gatekeeping that just didn't sit well with me.
If you wanna gatekeep memes to someone, the guy explaining it to the "normies" is inoffensive compared to corpos trying to use them for advertising. There's some mobile game here on youtube whose ads are just the shittiest possible takes on popular macros
bro he literally faked his death for views.
@@polocatfan no he didn't
@polocatfan if you think that you must also think paranormal activity was real footage
Biggest red flag ever is when she said she threw out the receipt. I live in Canada and recently went through a long and intense hospital stay. I didn't have to pay for it but I REALLY feel like if I had to pay for health care like people do in the US there is no way I would be throwing out the receipt.
If I had to pay for healthcare like in the US I'd never ever go get health care 😂 just stick me in the ground I'll be fine 😂
Its kinda surprising it happened more than twice
As always, very entertaining. Thx:)
Faking a death is so horrible. Even though you think that you're doing what's best because of all the hate, there are ALWAYS still those people out there that look up to you and your content. People that will CRY over your "death". Just be truthful if you're leaving UA-cam or make genuine content if you want views. Don't play with other's feelings because ultimately that will get you nowhere.
A wise old man once said to me, It isn't until the reaction that the outcome becomes clear, for the outcome is dependent on that reaction for it to truly reveal itself.
Amy and Tammy got their own reality tv show on tlc, they're really good at creating drama
Hearing a creator admitting of lying and faking their death gives me hope because it means that they know they messed up. I’ve never heard of sketchtek but i do like how he admitted to lying and faking his death bc he realized how fucked up that was and went to apologize. It was fucked up but he apologized and won’t do it again. It’s never to late to apologize.
This is literally the only UA-camr I’m completely fine with watching his sponsored sections ❤
At this point, I disregard pretty much any and all sob stories I encounter online irrespective of individual, group or platform.
I hate pranks. Those who do them need to face SERIOUS consequences.
I still don’t get how some people can live with themselves after waking up one day and going, “I’m gonna fake my death for some moneh.”
What is the name of the music he uses in the intro. Looking like a great vid as always
You said it at first. These sick people do this for attention, sympathy and money.
That ad input was hilarious
It's really funny seeing that this video's sponsor is proton mail, especially after watching a video covering about someone being stalked by a guy who used 3 different emails from said sponsor and what I can only assume at the moment, the proton mail is not all that it's cracked up to be
Calling "Koil", "Koli" every time made me laugh though ngl
nice content mill buddy
they dont ahve 1 million scubsribers 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe sometimes some you tubers wanna quit, because of different reasons like tired of uploading everyday, or genuine sickness or they dont find it fun anymore
i heard about the sketchek situation prior to this video and i always thought it was weird… just really really weird & uncalled for.
You’re my favorite content mill slop creator! Please ignore the supporters and make (no) new content! Would love seeing you make something better!
The Savx one was wild, I used to watch a ton of GTARp, and Sav's character started interacting alot with person I watched. I remember the death announcement and I remember watching everything come out about it being fake months later. It was especially egregious because others who played in the server had died, at least one was self inflicted, and this liars name was added to their memorial in game. All because he got caught using an aimbot IN AN RP GAME. Perma bans are rarely even permanent in nopixel, it was just insane.
2:15, Completely healthy is a super stretch. Being at that weight is like a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.
The owner of No Pixel is KOIL. Not “Koli”
I’ve always thought how scary it is that money could lead people to do so much crazy and immoral things.
2:11 "both completely heathy" is a stretch
Considering a lot of UA-camrs carreer is to Fake Their Own Life......its not surprising
Oh how ironic them faking death brought sickness to their reputation
Hello I really like your content 😊 it's amazing how your channel grows! That's amazing 👏!! Your channel is amazing!!! I like your video's continue the great work ❤️👏💕!! And it's crazy how UA-camrs fake their deaths it's crazy 😨
just hearing about the Behind the meme situation made me realize how cult-like people have made memes... Like it's actually kind of scary how meme culture has formed into an unwritten rule of "Superior humor" in a lot of circles. Also the irony of these meme lovers being like "You're not funny!" when they have the audacity to be obsessed with little internet jokes and get upset when someone explains them or even finds them not that funny. I've seen more of these "I'm not offended by anything" mentality memelords get more unpleasantly upset over someone saying their screenshot of Shrek with words over it isn't that funny in their opinion.
Enjoy memes and have fun sure, but please don't be a weird cultist about them. Don't get all upset if someone doesn't understand the meme or joke... that's just insane.
The one about Sketchek could have been avoided if he went “hey umm, I’m going to take a break and come back a few years, kay?” But no he chose “okay so I’m faking my death, bye”
I remember when Savx got banned and felt so ashamed and embarrassed that he was the butt of the nopixel community that he decided to fake his death. I actually cried when the news came out but once the truth was revealed I couldn't believe someone would go that far over a permaban. It also pissed me off bc the nopixel community has lost amazing rpers, and he disrespected and just shat all over their deaths. Smh. I'm glad Ramee kept it 💯 and didn't amuse his behavior.
at the end of the day the viewer need to remember
they don't know these people so they need to be careful who they support
Its sad. "But how much do you love me??"
Writer being second most desired is wild to hear during a writers strike
These are the type of people who never want what they have
You didn’t even watch the whole video😭
@@Zamn_daniel your right, bit of a d**k move on my part
I commented of the title
and after finishing the video I was mostly correct
UA-camr faking they own death is the most sadist and also the most stupidest thing, at what cost, you betray your own fan, you betray your own people, for what for what, a small little buck that going run out, a attention that probably run out in few year? Like a monkey swinging to tree to another, one day it going to fall and perish
sorry if i made any mistake
The last one, I find odd people found distrust because we have seen some creators do get burn out or just Spiro down.
Imagine if it was real, then those hater be happy showing how bad human are and the people that loved him will cry over it.
The point was to his video is to show what could have happen.
the sketchek situation really tells me, the grind is never stop indeed, but your body and mind does. so to all my favorite youtubers, please, take rest
People were only angry at Behind the Meme because he exposed them.
Still surprised that this video has a sponsor!
Faking your death as a method to retire is just dumb. Just announce you’re leaving, people will understand.
While I agree with you on the "faking your death to retire is dumb af" point
You have to much faith in people to think people would understand 😂 there are some fucking unhinged losers out there
Just post a ten second video of black screen with text
“Goodbye, f*ck off”
Go out with a power move at least
It always makes me happy whenever someone mentions Kitty0706, I loved watching his vids and he is what got me through high school
"they resumed their upload, both completely healthy" They definitely uploaded but I wouldn't call them completely healthy my guy lol
Behind the meme taught people a valuable lesson but they didn't even pay attention to the lesson
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
