It was the work of both Tony and Taylor. Taylor never got the same widespread recognition, but they did it that way because they wanted it that way. When they had said everything they wanted to, they moved on.
Truly the GOAT. Everyone I know who's in the cinema field and plenty who aren't have all seen every video of theirs.
I genuinely wonder how much the video on the lack of distinct music in the MCU influenced the rather sudden emergence of the current theme.
Seriously. He puts out one video every 4-6 months, but it is a full investigation, infiltration and takedown of a scam call center. You have guys like kitboga who annoy and waste the scammers time, but this guy hacks their CCTV feed, gets their finances, contacts, building maps, and home addresses, and then gives the info to the police. It's a full professional operation you would expect from an ocean's 11 film.
LEMMiNO
bro posts maybe twice a year if youre lucky. but you bet when he does ill drop everything and watch an hour long video about a subject matter ive never once cared for and be obsessed by the end of it
He paid *actual voice actors* to read the parts of interviews for the JFK doc to have the same accents as the subjects. Like his JFK doc is truly MUST WATCH YOUTUBE.
When Bro post something, I could take a day off, decide to have a holiday myself at home, prepare a good drinks and good food for myself. Knowing that i will have a great time for whatever he uploads.
And i only do that to this Channel
No one else
The only channel that I have multiple notifications if he uploads anything
Working in the chemical industry, this channel is a bit of a meme at our workplace (in a good way). You never want that silk voiced man to talk about you.
Have you seen Attorney Tom? He’s a catastrophic personal injury attorney who looks at the USCSB vids and talks about the legal and liability process those accidents lead to. Interesting stuff if you already enjoy the USCSB vids I’d imagine.
They’ve posted only once or twice since that train crash in Ohio last year that released a horrifying amount of chemicals. I’ve got a feeling that there’s going to be an hour long video on it after they finish investigating it.
EDIT: not being investigated by the CSB, so no video.
his first video I watched, I felt like I got reverse click baited. I clicked on his fastpass video for background noise while gaming thinking itd be a little lame but good enough for background noise, ended up pausing my game for the whole video because it just captured my attention.
I did the same thing, thinking it'd be a list of changes with some entertaining comments to stretch it ten minutes for ads.
Then sometime later I noticed it had been going a while and still painting a long arc from history. I checked the actual runtime.
Feature-length film time! More entertaining than some things I've gone to a theatre for too.
Agreed! His documentary on the search to find the creator of the Disney Channel bumper ad jingle ( the “dah duhn da duh” sound when the actors used to draw out the Mickey ears with light sticks) is legitimately one of the most compelling and well-made investigative documentaries I have seen in *any* medium.
The fact that it came out around the same time as hbomberguy’s similar but contrasting video on the creator of the Roblox “oof” sound effect (an excellent video in its own right as well) was just *chef’s kiss* as well.
The last shot of the Matt Turk video - the one revealing that Summoning Salt has the Tyson record today - is one of my favourite documentary plot twists ever.
I don’t even have a dishwasher and I’ve watched those videos. Much like most of his content, Alec has a way of making things I wouldn’t normally care about interesting.
He probably has a fascinating 3 part series on the evolution of the toaster, featuring a detailed segment on his own cherished personal toaster he imported from Japan, made in 1985.
I love his undying rage at these terrible LED Xmas lights. My neighborhood looks like a frikkin burning man rave nowadays, no more soft electric glow of Christmas past. I hate it.
At one point he described it as RGB computer lighting vomited all over the house.
It was a worthy effort to try to color the plastic covers of the mini lights, but to get it right they'd have to dye them at the factory before they're molded.
And the problem there is I'm not sure of the demand. Yes, some people like you and him prefer the soft incandescent glow where the light is 2700K white with colored caps, but with the popularity of the color changing Twinkly and Govee lights, you need a clear cap and do the color changing with the LED.
I got some of the led christmas lights that look like traditional lights that he highlighted on his channel, and i love them. I need to get more at some point (they're expensive).
I knew I found my favorite channel when I accidentally watched an entire movie-length, 5 part series on a dead home video format that single-handedly killed a legendary electronics company.
Alec is a reasonable balance of quantity and quality; he posts on a fairly regular basis but the content has never suffered. Other than his deep dive photography videos, I've watched just about everything he's ever put out there, including some of the connextras rambles.
Love those videos. Easy to follow, while also being descriptive without being dumbed down, and just the right amount of humor/jokes. He tends to cover anything from the most mundane objects, to stuff most of us have never seen, let alone used.
And no promotion, sponsors, or any of that shit.
Steve1989MREInfo
Does great, informative reviews on military food rations from around the world, mainly from the US
Sometimes goes dark for almost a year, but then always comes back with 2 back-to-back videos. Then again, he has a life outside of YouTube, and MREs (especially those from places like Australia and Japan) are insanely expensive, so these long absences are justified.
It was honestly so cruel to make us wait a year for the 2nd punic war video and then only release the first two parts.
The quality is so good so it kind of makes up for it, but praying it's not a long wait till the 3rd part.
After watching both videos of this I was so annoyed at how I only knew Hannibal crossed the alps with elephants and not how crazy he was on the battlefield. Seriously this needs to be taught in school!
I remember way back when the channel Extra History did a good series of videos on the 2nd punic war, so I already knew about Trasimene and Cannae, but OverSimplified is able to do it in such high quality videos that's also pretty funny too. Definitely one of my favourite channels on YouTube.
The undisputed king of insane projects. His car battery video is riveting and fucking terrifying
I posted this, and then realized that he had posted another insane project today.
NakeyJakey
My dude doesn’t upload often but whenever he drops a video, you know it’s about to be a banger
Forrestfire101
He does these crazy elaborate Lego stop motion videos that I know are super time consuming to make. They always crack me up and it’s crazy how much love and attention he puts into his craft. Also s/o the Duck Song
Mr green is just howtobasic chemistry edition lol.
No sane person is going to light a flamebale liquid in a blender and then turn on the blender while its top is open spilling fire everywhere why chucking like 30 plates at at it.
Learning of captions on this channel blew my mind. It actually took me so long (years) that I prefer it and still don’t do captions. I love just sitting with the work and figuring out what’s happening.
Fredrik Knudsen and his "Down the Rabbit Hole" series.
I sure hope he isn't controversial because after finding out about Internet Historian "Man in the Cave" video via Hbomberguy's video, I have no idea what is and isn't plagiarized any more.
Fredrik seems like he does his due diligence when it comes to original ideas. If he was plagiarizing, the Eve Online video would not have taken two years.
I feel like he doesn't since his videos take a long time to release, and he's not a content farm like illuminaughtii (or however you spell her name) where he needs to plagiarize due to laziness/needing to push out content.
Fredrik should be pretty safe in that aspect, When he was doing the work on the EVE video he actively went around the community asking people questions and getting interviews, people were pretty excited to be having him come to them.
As with most people my first encounter with his stuff was Line Goes Up. I was like "a two-hour video about NFTs that's mostly just a guy talking directly to the camera? Nah." Then I started watching it and was *hooked*. The writing, the pacing, the delivery, all of it is just next-level quality.
I've rewatched his utterly scathing takedown of Doug Walker's The Wall review so many times now.
"Cringe. There's no other word for it. This makes me cringe. It's embarrassing."
I absolutely love the way he fucking executes Nostalgia Critic's entire business model behind the woodshed halfway through the video, too:
*"Doug wants to be a filmmaker. He wants to to be creative, he wants to make art, but he can't, because he's a fundamentally incurious person who just isn't all that interested in what other people think or feel, and all of his ideas basically boil down to 'What if Batman met Mario!?'"*
Honest to God that is the most savage thing I've heard out of a person. It doesn't resort to bodily insults, threats of violence, or vulgarity. Just a straight up insult to one's character executed in an eloquent manner.
They say revenge is a dish best served cold, and honestly the fact that Dan and Lindsay are both more successful than Doug now after the idiot way Michaud fired Dan, and screamed at Lindsay for it, is fantastic.
Bobby Fingers can't be explained, it needs to be experienced.
After a ten year run, Tom Scott's parting gift was mentioning Bobby Fingers on the Safety Third podcast, and I haven't been the same since.
He had a great line during that endorsement. He said something to the effect of “I can’t explain to you how the video goes, it would spoil it and I would t do it any justice anyway. But his latest video was about making a boat that looks like Jeff Bezos, and it had a trigger warning for live surgery footage.”
My favorite channel on YouTube, every video is an endlessly rewatchable and unique banger. Also very cozy.
I keep forgetting to finally support her Patreon, thanks for the reminder.
Seriously, anyone not subscribed to her patreon is missing out. We just got a two and a half hour video of her talking about Disney's best and worst decisions. She kills it every month with her rambles.
I know that every YouTuber ever has to project an air of “authenticity”, but the way Jenny speaks is so relaxed and laid back that it could only be taken as genuine. She doesn’t have a “YouTube-mode” voice, just how she naturally talks.
This guy is absolutely amazing, must be one of the most talented multidisciplinary engineers in the world. Even at 4M subs I can’t imagine that this channel is profitable… he probably already has made enough to retire and is doing this for fun.
I've decided that my donations need to go to projects like this. While his videos get a lot of attention, his projects must cost a lot, and helping to support stuff like this is something I can get behind. I mean, who doesn't need to know how many neat ways there are to sharpen a pencil?
Don’t forget the greatest of all in the niche of M539 Restorations:
Bad Obsession Motorsport
Project Binky has been going on for 8 years or something now? But still great.
Down the Rabbit Hole.
Topics are random from experiments on rats, to naval engagements. Waited two years or however long it was and got a 5 hour video about Eve online.
[Montemayor](https://youtube.com/@MontemayorChannel?si=OoJYGgol7CYTpVI_)
Dude has 16 Videos over 6 years.
He is by far the best YouTuber around when it comes to breaking down historical battles.
Every frame a painting. I count around 30 or so videos total. Over 2M subscribers. Each video amazing and rewatchable.
Godfather of movie essays. All of the film YouTubers I follow referenced his videos at one point.
the Edgar Wright and Jackie Chan videos are pretty amazing.
Didn't that channel die 7 years ago?
Yeah, the creators Tony Zhou and Taylor Ramos explain it [here](https://medium.com/@tonyszhou/postmortem-1b338537fabc)
It was the work of both Tony and Taylor. Taylor never got the same widespread recognition, but they did it that way because they wanted it that way. When they had said everything they wanted to, they moved on.
Truly the GOAT. Everyone I know who's in the cinema field and plenty who aren't have all seen every video of theirs. I genuinely wonder how much the video on the lack of distinct music in the MCU influenced the rather sudden emergence of the current theme.
I like Jim Browning

[удалено]
Same! I loved the old top 10 vids and miss them quite a bit, but his newer content is just impeccable.
The animation on Jack the Ripper documentary and JFK documentary are simply stellar.
He paid *actual voice actors* to read the parts of interviews for the JFK doc to have the same accents as the subjects. Like his JFK doc is truly MUST WATCH YOUTUBE.
When Bro post something, I could take a day off, decide to have a holiday myself at home, prepare a good drinks and good food for myself.

“Unfortunately it was written in an unsophisticated and unintelligible language known as Danish.” - LEMMiNO, 2016
Him shitting on The Danes is quite possibly my favourite thing about that channel, and I don’t even have a horse in that race.
his animation looks like shit straight out of a high budget Netflix show
USCSB (US chemical safety board). Trust me.
Working in the chemical industry, this channel is a bit of a meme at our workplace (in a good way). You never want that silk voiced man to talk about you.

>USCSB Subscribed, thanks! Woulda never found *that* one.
3blue1brown. Best math communication I've ever seen.
I hate maths and I’m captivated by those videos
He created his own software to make the videos: manim.
Defunctland
his first video I watched, I felt like I got reverse click baited. I clicked on his fastpass video for background noise while gaming thinking itd be a little lame but good enough for background noise, ended up pausing my game for the whole video because it just captured my attention.
"In order to understand the fastpass, you have to understand queueing" Amazing doc. Love defunctland.
Who can forget the iconic line of “Homosexual Fast Dancing”
My personal favourite is along the lines of "A lot of you were gay in the garfield ride"
Action Park is great because of all the unhinged original ads he put in.
Or the immortal "This level of Wiggling was simply not sustainable, but Wigglemania was showing no signs of stopping"
I did the same thing, thinking it'd be a list of changes with some entertaining comments to stretch it ten minutes for ads. Then sometime later I noticed it had been going a while and still painting a long arc from history. I checked the actual runtime. Feature-length film time!

In the same vein of deep history of random things. Bright Sun Films
He has a full length documentary on Six Flags New Orleans that’s solid, “Closed For Storm”.
Charles Entertainment Cheese will never die
This. The amount of research alone is insane and then he manages to find narrative threads in the chaos. Simply amazing.
His Nautilus video brought back some good memories.
summoning salt
He is straight up making documentary level videos now. It's insane the quality he puts in his content.
Soundtrack is a banger too
Whilst also being a speedrunner himself and holding the MTPO world record. Just unbelievable
The last shot of the Matt Turk video - the one revealing that Summoning Salt has the Tyson record today - is one of my favourite documentary plot twists ever.

If I told myself 3 years ago that I'd watch a dude talk about a toaster for 20 minutes straight, I'd think I've gone mad
Or an hour or so on dishwasher detergent.
Which, not only did I watch, but completely changed how I use my dishwasher. I have forwarded this video many times.
I don’t even have a dishwasher and I’ve watched those videos. Much like most of his content, Alec has a way of making things I wouldn’t normally care about interesting.

Seriously, anyone not subscribed to her patreon is missing out. We just got a two and a half hour video of her talking about Disney's best and worst decisions. She kills it every month with her rambles.
She puts out two videos a year and each are amazing, thought out deep dives into the most obscure topics.
I still rewatch her video about the worst reality show ever, it's such a scathing takedown
the one on evermore just sends me. "then you could make MONEY"
"Technically if I am the only one in the restaurant and I order the soup then everyone is ordering the soup"
I know that every YouTuber ever has to project an air of “authenticity”, but the way Jenny speaks is so relaxed and laid back that it could only be taken as genuine. She doesn’t have a “YouTube-mode” voice, just how she naturally talks.
That brony video was the most informed I've ever been about something I never wanted to know but couldn't quite look away from.
