News YouTuber arrested and jailed for prank at Contemporary Resort

Burch is charged with disturbing the peace at a public lodging and disorderly intoxication. He was evicted from his hotel room and banned from Walt Disney World property, the report said.

Honestly, this is probably a worse punishment than the 3 days in jail.

Disney has given lifetime bans for smaller stuff than this.

"You Tuber".

Thank you! Exactly my thoughts. Just because someone has a camera it doesn't mean they have anything useful or important to say. Most end up acting like that idiot Logan Paul.

I’m a big fan of you tubers especially Disney ones as they are great entertainment and mostly informative then you get idiots like this one who goes and spoils it for everyone else and gives other you tubers a bad name

Jail the cynical Disney management who sold him the drugs.

This is what you get when you knowingly turn your family destination into drunkytown.

 

[jhastings74]

I think a better...or additional...consequence would be a ban from all social media platforms.

Not sure how calling in active shooters and eating a tide pod can relate. But any chance to attack a certain group of individuals is always warranted, I guess.

They're related because they're both ludicrous stunts that were influenced by the Internet in some way.

I apologize if my previous comment sounded mean, hearing this just made me very angry. I didn't mean that all milennials were terrible. I mainly meant idiots like this guy who employ the most ridiculous tactics just to achieve fame. And I'm aware that a person of any age could've done this, but honestly, most of the stupid Internet trends and pranks that I hear about originate from Gen Z/milennials, and it infuriates me how the Internet and social media are influencing these kids, making them willing to do anything just so they can get their dopamine rush from the attention. It frustrates me because I'm 18 (almost 19) and even I know not to do this crap. So that's that.

I really don't think it's entirely their fault, like I made it out to be at first. It's obviously the toxicity of today's social media playing a part as well. Because let's face it, even though there are benefits to social media, there's been some real stupid incidents that have come out of Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube etc. I still remember when people ended up in the hospital because someone was using Snapchat (the speed filter) while they were driving. That was smart.

3 days, what a joke! I would of been scared to death if I was there with my family and someone told me that!

Most???? I highly disagree. Seems a bit stereotypical to label most people who use a platform as idiots

Idiot.

Idiot idiot idiot.

Three years would be a lesson.

this reminds me of a story i heard yesterday about a video game called “active shooter” that’s causing an uproar. you play as a shooter, running in a school, taking out students.
i don’t know what’s wrong with people nowadays, but compassion, common sense, & empathy has gone right out the window

The company is not going to release the active shooter game. Why they even developed it is beyond me.

3 days to a judge might seem like quite a punishment but to those who have done a little time not so much. Wonder how much he had already done before he got sentenced?

Just wanted to chime in real quick, the guy is not a YouTuber, everywhere reporting that is doing so solely off the fact that he said he was filming it for YouTube when questioned by staff, he has no actualy presence/following on the site.

 

["El Gran Magnifico"]

The guy looks like he's missing a facial feature.......just can't figure out which one.

They should tie him to a boat and force him to go through IASW for 72 hours straight. Then let him serve the 3 days.

He’s missing a brain that’s for sure.

Yeah I searched this guy all over youtube and around google, there is no evidence that he had a youtube channel. In fact there appears to be no indication at the moment that he was even filming this stunt at all.

Now it's plausible he was intending to create a channel after filming and this would have been his first video. But he definitely doesn't appear to have had a channel or anything at the time of this event.
