Seems like it would be in disneys best interest to get rid of those long table skirts

i've always thought those were weird as they could create a hiding place for something malicious in an otherwise secure zone

Or, maybe something they have that they don't want you to see... something a lot of people might be uncomfortable knowing about.

Haven't seen any of this guy's videos on YouTube, and don't plan to (not giving him any attention), but based on what I have been able to gather, I take it that most of them are probably of him eating tide pods.

His thing is doing 'scary stuff' like Ouija, or Ouija on a girl's stomach, or burning a Ouija board in the "burning a Ouija board challenge" (there's only so many Bloody-Mary and Candy-Man "challenges" out there, so you have to get creative), during which there's a lot of "did you hear that!!???" drama.

No, that doesn't prove anything at all. There are a LOT of quality content producers on YouTube. There are also a lot of desperate attention seekers. It's not that hard to weed out the bad ones.
I just don't waste my time on Utube and doubt there is that much quality content producers in that format. I will take you word for it but won't be spending any time searching or watching Utube.

Why does the method of content delivery have an impact on what you will or will not watch? There is good and bad content on all platforms. Yes, YouTube lowers the bar for content creation so you do end up with a lot of garbage, but there is also a lot of great stuff there to. The quality of the content is all that is important to me, how I get it really isn't important.

I watch almost as much YouTube as TV. There's a lot of great YT channels with info and enterainment and infotainment.

People looking down on it is as funny as a previous generation denigrating TV as the 'boobtube.'*

*You see, kids, before flat screens TV, a TV monitor was a cathode ray tube and the 'b word' was a synonym for 'dummy'.

I follow (and enjoy) several Youtube channels and a few of them are Disney vloggers that create good content. Tim Tracker is one of our favorites. While his content is heavily based around Disney/Uni, he (and his wife) visit many other places in Orlando/Florida such as restaurants , animal rescues, Space X launches, etc. They also do fun "Disney challenges" and Disney resort tours. He keeps his Disney vlogs strictly about the parks and resorts and is not a pixie duster or a doom and gloomer (In his videos). and with close to 400,000 subscribers and some of his more popular uploads reaching over 2 million views, I am sure he makes a decent paycheck from it.

My point is that its fun and we enjoy having our coffee in the morning and watching the Youtube channels we subscribe to. I dont think it pathetic and we enjoy supporting people with creative talent and good content. But I will totally agree that there some Youtubers that try to hard to be crazy and over the top.

Um no, not really.

First off there are unlimited scenarios regarding YouTube payouts, in reality it’s Google Adsense paying for videos but bear with me.

A perfect situation with people actually watching a 30 second ad and not skipping it or using an adblocker could net a YouTube streamer roughly $2000 per million views and remember that’s a perfect scenario with strong chance the personality will not come close to that amount but we will use that number for now.

2k per 1 million views.

Then YouTube takes their cut.

Then Uncle Sam takes theirs.

Then you have to account for production costs.

Are you really taking home 2k? I doubt it.

Did you know you can buy a million views on YouTube? Did you know you can buy 5 million views? Yep, you can.

You really used to be able to make pretty good money on YouTube, now not so much.

Anyway who considers themselves a Disney blogger or blogger in general whose life revolves around YouTube is 100 percent pathetic. I love that YouTube has made it more difficult for vlogers to make money. It's pathetic being on YouTube is not a job.
Now I'm in no way defending this guy, but you do realize for a lot of people YouTube is a job? Many people are making six and seven figure incomes doing this. In fact in some cases it's not even a job but a business that employs multiple people. YouTube itself isn't really the job but merely the distribution channel. There are obviously varying levels of quality of content and this is clearly on the low end, but it's apparently selling. I don't blame him, I blame his followers. He's clearly just delivering a product that they want.

This is a bit fishy... The police report states he was arrest for trespassing but he wasn't really trespassing.... :facepalm: tf

He's not famous. I can tell because he's not shilling random shirts and hats with his face on them.

Besides, you can only say you're a famous YouTube star once you have an agent, are easily recognized on the street, and have some major, overblown controversy.

Also:
"Authorities say that while Ethier was being escorted out of the park, he “squared his body” toward a deputy and began yelling at him.
“At this time, I believe Mr. Ethier was either going to become aggressive or not leave the property,” the deputy wrote in an arrest report.


The deputy grabbed Ethier’s arm. After Ethier yanked his arm away, the deputy forced him to the ground, causing a scrape on Ethier’s arm, authorities said.""

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

If he tried something like that up here with our local PD he'd end up a parapalegic
