[video=youtube;Xmrn2IuSW-Q]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xmrn2IuSW-Q[/video] Seriously, this guy is great. He's been putting out top-notch quality for 8 years!
Was thinking about posting this guy's videos here but never got around to it. Just wish he made more videos, but i guess the quantity makes sense when each one is so great.
Why haven't I heard of this guy before
I'm down. This is very unoffensive and digestible.
IFL science has interesting reads sometimes but yeah, some of it's writers seem to be somewhat arrogant wannabe intellectuals. Well, and some of their articles are pushing a political or social agenda, while giving off that whole "our opinions are totally backed up by science, they can't be wrong!" vibe.
I am really impressed by his production quality. He also is very calm and non-flashy, which makes it a delight to watch.
why would you paint your face including the insides of your ears every time you want to make a youtube video for little to no added value? maybe im just lazy but that seems like a lot of effort heh

[QUOTE=Penguiin;49310341]why would you paint your face including the insides of your ears every time you want to make a youtube video for little to no added value? maybe im just lazy but that seems like a lot of effort heh[/QUOTE] He probably spends way more time on visual effects.
fuck yeah he has a patreon. I hope nothing but the best for this guy, his videos have been so amazing for years and it'd be amazing if he could make them more frequently
[QUOTE=Penguiin;49310341]why would you paint your face including the insides of your ears every time you want to make a youtube video for little to no added value? maybe im just lazy but that seems like a lot of effort heh[/QUOTE] Here's his own reason: [QUOTE]When it came time to visualize him I just thought what do I have at hand? What can grab people’s attention? And really, because it’s supposed to be a superhero, what haven’t we seen before? What do I have at my disposal that I can actually pull off in terms of attire and make-up? And that’s what I had. I got some of this chrome colored make-up at the local party store and I had all those clothes and I would’ve done my whole face but it’s too much work. It work’s out in terms of illusion revealing reality, and... which one’s the reality?[/QUOTE]

Gimmicky ways to identify yourself do seem to work. Pretty much every internet personality I follow has one.
This was a very good use of Occam's Razor. Basically went step by step showing how little effort was put into covering the story.
This guy is awesome, as I just spent the last hour watching his videos
At 4:25, is that the background ambiance from STALKER: Call of Prypiat?
His video's really nice and well made but he looks like a spy kids character
[QUOTE=Mikemaximum;49312989]His video's really nice and well made but he looks like a spy kids character[/QUOTE] Yeah honestly I think I would enjoy his videos if he went with more of a Vsauce approach instead of a Nostalgia Critic approach with random skits.
His voice is eerily similar to Carl Sagan's, it's sorta fucking with my head
Yeah just like the American moon landings.

Wow, this guy is seriously great. He's a treat to watch.

He has this "Kids show thing for adults" going on.
