Wendigoon my guy, I love you, but please if that is your cameraman you would have been better off using a tripod. Holy shit this entire video is frustrating. The spastic jackass handling the iphone 4-assed camera this video was filmed on turns around constantly, does not let the camera focus, and managed to miss a majority of the interesting shit like what was written on machines and signs. The only scene which seemed well done was that he actually managed to stick the camera lens against the porthole window of the "storage room". Also,did they ever mention where they were or am I just retarded? (probably the latter but you can't make me watch that shit again).
I think this video is really out of place on the Wendigoon channel. It really should have gone to Wendigang channel because of how poor quality it is. I think the regular subscribers of Wendigoon expect a riveting or spoopy tale to listen to, not three dudes yelling "BROOOO" for 40 minutes. I'm guessing Wendigoon is entering a phase where he wants to do different, unique things with his channel like the Brown Mountain lights video. That was a fine video, but this was not it, chief.
At first, I was like "when did Wendigoon become an urbex channel?" and then I watched the first minute of this video. I had no idea he wrote the screenplay for the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. movie being made through KickStarter.
ETA: Off topic slightly but if you like Urbex videos, The Proper People are pretty good and their vids aren't full of annoying bros yelling WOAH DUDE
If this is about 2 millions of raped german women, then he is retard and should check his sources. It was literally counted as "X number of women told that they had children from soviet soldiers(not raped, had children, nothing more), the probability of pregnancy is 1 to 10 therefore there were actually 150 women who had sex with soviet soldiers, add to that every child that was born during the period when soviet soldiers were stationed in Germany, bla-bla-bla, 2 million german women were raped". Funnily enough, if you use the same retarded approach with children who were born from allies, turns out that they raped over 13 millions of german women, but somehow all of them went under the radar, you know, just like those totally real 2 millions.
New Dreading, I hope you like 3 hours of uncut trial footage with no commentary (this could be a masterpiece but I skimmed and he seriously checks out like 30 minutes in, let me know if it's good).
I'm two hours in and he is interjecting to add commentary where appropriate, often every time she flat out lies on the stand. Very watchable so far unlike the Curtis Reeves one.
And holy shit, this bitch. She's exactly as obnoxious and full of herself as Nancy Brophy and Anthony Todt, definitely worth listening to her testify without interruption, the narcissism is next level. I've never heard of this case before, so won't spoil it for others, but she's a great lolcow.
Her speech, mannerisms and high pitched passive aggressive corrections exude lethal levels of arrogance.
I’m liking the content about ILJ on Eudoxia and Turkey Tom. Seeing ‘the internet sleuths’ at kiwi farms get credited for exposing ILJ, and Chris Chan being correctly referred to as male was refreshing. KF will continue to serve as a source for content creators far more popular than Lucas and co
Iceberg videos now are just basically “57.5 facts about x topic”. The original point of an iceberg was that the subject matter would become more esoteric as you descended, which these people making them have seemed to preserve, but also that the lower levels were more interesting/disturbing/difficult to pick up.
This aspect has been largely ignored it seems, with a lot of the entries being interchangeable and as a result the videos are more just a list of “things” than descending into the esoteric niches on a subject.
There’s also the issue of scope, resulting in smaller topics populating the iceberg with even the smallest fun facts they can find.

I find myself missing his iceberg chart videos, say what you will about the iceberg fad but his iceberg videos were explained decently and weren't the same few charts that are covered ad nauseum. I found the Brown Mountain video to be a whole lot of nothing and I really don't give a shit about Stalker at all.
Sorry if I'm two weeks late with this one, but holy fucking shit! 17+ hours?! I dare anyone to try to watch it through one sitting without having to take a bathroom break.

I've been tuned out to Crowley after he tried to be a big dick investigator, using information from other sources and pretending like he was the one to discover it.
But I did watch this one.
Maybe I'm just really obscene but some of these are kinda bait and switches. I'm a bit literal in this regard, but when I hear "darkest moment on television", I expect moments that happened on television, not stuff that happened outside of these moments.
Nitpicking aside, I haven't heard about any of these incidents so in that regard, it was informative.

He shouldn’t have included the twilight zone movie since that incident isn’t obscure at all. I never knew there was footage of the actors’ deaths though that surprised me. I thought that footage had been destroyed.

At least he didn't go over Christine Chubbick or Vester Lee Flanagan, which are turning into the Regina Kay Walters of supposed dark or shocking TV moments.
The part with the Japanese guy getting Christopher Reeve'd after diving into the mud was unsettling with all the laughing and shoving his face into the mud because they thought he was just playing.
I know that people here aren't fond of The Internet Investigator, and I can understand why.
I know it's another "NSFL disturbing reddit post" and should be taken with a grain of salt but, holy fucking shit.
For those that don't want to watch it, I'm gonna give you a TL;DW summary
Basically underage groomed MtF troon (because of course), starts to develop
feelings for his father after developing a thing for older men, because he dated
some older married man. Manages to suppress this "feeling" for a year.
Goes into a big detail how he's into degradation, humiliation and sissy fetish (of course)
and how he loves to "submissive" (not a fetish btw).
Becomes friendly with the previous man he dated and tells him about his feelings for his dad, the man grooms encourages him
to pursue these feelings also pretends to be his dad, so he can get a tattoo. But long story short, during one night he got his dad drunk
and sexually assaulted him, trying to tell him "He wanted this". The dad after this, doesn't want to talk to him.
The troon tries to justify his actions through comments.
Condensed TL;DW : Troon pulls a Chris-Chan on his drunk dad.
This reddit post gives me the same vibes of very recent reddit post that's been under lots of fire (for a good reason) , where a MtF troon
gets upset/jealous because his sister got sexually abused by their uncle and he didn't.
But outside of that, the video is your average Internet Investigator video, post slapped on the video with her reading it,nothing special.
I don't agree with her take of " uwu It's not a person fault for their paraphilias, because they can't help it or
choose that. What matters is how they behave about it."
It comes off as half-assed enabling because I guess even if you say "Yeah no one thinks like that you're a broken person, seek help
for your fucked up paraphilias and fetishes before something bad happens to you and people around you." in the most nicest way possible,
you have more chances to be labeled as mean, -phobe and close minded than reasonable, because we live in a time period where
being nice and respectful to people for sake of being "civil" is more important than telling them harsh truths, even when they don't deserve that kindness or respect.

I knew about the Twilight Zone movie and footage from decades-old internet exploring as a kid. I think there's an alternate angle somewhere with someone yelling "CUT!"? It might have been from another scene, but it freaks me out to no end.
The firefighter one got to me. I have a terrible fear of house fires, but I'm a sucker for miraculous survival stories; I cried seeing him talk to his family again... But, mother of God, him dying just because he fell wrong. Between the Japanese guy and him, it's just landing on your head badly. It's heartbreaking...

Way to go Dreading.
Also in the middle of a subject, he obviously switches to a new, much better microphone that makes him sound like a completely different person, its very distracting.
Overall another interesting case that has this bloated diaper at what should be the end.
