That's a good point, but a lot of his appeal is due to video editing more than his charisma or psychological persuasion I'd say. But I'm not a big expert on the guy have only seen a few videos.

The videos I've seen were very oriented towards ADHD minds. Very frequent video cuts, no "dead air" whatsoever, constantly moving from action to action with no time to breath, that's great for keeping people engaged. But the people that works on are mainly kids with low attention spans, adults just get turned off by it.

Also I noticed an abundance of computer graphics like explosions being added in to keep the excitement high. This is difficult to do well if you don't have a competent video editor and those people require decent wages.

All in all I don't think he's worth studying. There's thousands of people already trying to copy his gimmicks.

Maybe if you gave us a specific example where you felt like he did a really good job with the script I'd agree with you.
 
Don't waste your time. To do what he does, you need a lot of money to finance his stunts. If you want to learn how to be sensational, just look at any attention-whoring ding dong celebrity and/or politician. There's a lot to choose from.

Agreed.

I also don't believe his origin story about how he has been grinding YouTube for years and randomly found success just from pure hard work alone. I think he was chosen to be put into the spotlight by the platform itself, he's a mediocre, non-intimidating, "beta male" and YouTube loves to promote these types of people as social engineering. The people they let become famous are the role models for the future generations, that's powerful.

His content at the end of the day is just brain rot and although he does a lot of good for the world with his charity efforts (I remember he funded eye surgery operations for blind people to let them see), the morals of those lessons end up being that good things only happen when rich people decide to shower their wealth on "us plebs".

Apparently his parents are in US military intelligence agencies which would add weight to these theories, if true.
 
No. I watched one video of his and were turned off due to it having zero plot and it made no real sense. It was like GTA mission in real life. It could be exciting if I was partaking in it but not on a video.

It's a brain rot and psyops operation, definitely. This is impossible he got so big on his own. :D
 
He is truly a super unique content creator
