Sorry for being late but could someone be so kind to explain the joke about DSP outlasting other YouTubers, streamers, etc.? I'm less familiar with him at this point than Etika; is DSP really reckless?
A bit off topic, but I'll go on topic after the spoiler since it's a bit of a long story, and I dont' want to break the thread.

The long story is that DSP is a guy who started is internet... "Famoushness" around the late 2000s. At some point he was actually decent at games, and knew how to play fighting games... or so we thought. Turns out he abuses mechanics that are easily punishable (At EVO, they played a busted port of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo that allowed him to utilize a set of attacks as a character, namely M. Bison/Dictator, though there'slots of fighting game jargon to understand the jist is his opponent had to keep blocking because there was no way to react. He got beat by someone else because they did it back.) He's been going for over a decade now, which has lead to some prominent creators for video game content going under, usually ones who are way better than him and also not as fucking retarded. Some key people include Two/Super Best Friends who literally are not friends anymore, JewWario who despite the controversies, had a stellar show about Japanese games you needed no knowledge of Japanese to play who killed himself, and even Machinima, one of the longest running and formerly biggest gaming platforms for creators.

Now back on topic, nothing new has come to light obviously, but the evidence is too overwhelming for it to not be Etika. This is getting to the point that I am 99% sure that it's him. However, I must bring up the question. How long do bodies go undiscovered in the harbor? And a bit dumber question since I'm not well versed on the concept, but how easy is it to kill yourself from a fall in water? Is it because you've fallen and sunk too far you can't getback up in time? Or are there rocks and other junk down there that makes it impossible to survive? I'm genuinely curious as the bridges nearby me (at leasts over bodies of water) have had a 15% suicide success rate.

Depends on water temp, most bodies in the river are found a few days to weeks later if found at all. Depends on how quickly they bloat up and float to the surface. Currents also play a factor, he could be found down stream under a dock.

According to survivors, hitting the water is like getting hit by a car. The force of the impact can cause broken bones and torn organs. And the higher the bridge, the more likely it is you're going to die.

The presence of ice can also delay a discovery. I think that happened with Spalding Gray.
 
Did this guy not have any friends or something? I feel like maybe I've missed a chunk of past events but this guy has 'baited' before but nothing was done about it- did none of his friends even attempt to get him involuntarily committed when he started acting like a tool in public and then shortly after acting like he was gonna off himself?

I'm not saying people don't bait suicide, they definitely do and I know people irl that do it all the time, it's fucking degenerate, but the best way to deal with baiters is to call their bluff. It reminds me of Vade's thread when they kept baiting so someone told their parents and they freaked the fuck out because they didn't want to get in trouble. They didn't really want to die, it was all for attention and asspats. Call their bluff, every time, even if they keep doing it every other day, eventually if they're faking they will get real fucking tired of it or scared about the police charging them with wasting police time and stop. Or, option C, they get hospitalised anyway for being a malingerer and they shut up.

I feel as well this shows a problem in the lack of mental health education we have atm, which is sad. In the UK theres a huge issue with even GPs not knowing what to look for with mental illness, leading to people with shit like bipolar (or anything else causing mania/mood swings like schioaffective etc) getting prescribed antidepressants for their suicidal episodes which leads to inevitable fuckery, because antidepressants without a mood stabiliser for anyone who has something like bipolar is known to trigger really bad manic episodes.

If this guy was the river body, i think its just gonna be another 'tragic loss' to untreated mental illness that could have been stopped if people took the control out of his own hands and got him treatment. Not everyone will give themselves up to getting that kind of treatment, especially blokes (hence why male suicide is so fucking high), but if someone is in the street asking a cop to suck his dick in a porno, fucking take them in and get them assessed after filming them and laughing at them ffs.

Don't just be like oh he wont actually kill himself hes just baiting, early assessment means there will be less time wasting in the future. This aint the UK, you americans dont have to wait 4 months just to see a psychiatrist, take advantage of that and get this fucker seen so he stops acting like a degenerate in public and doesnt jump off a bridge after sperging about some fucking cult in florida and that the world is a simulation.

He obviously wasnt gonna help himself, he was delusional, and a lot of the time with things that cycle like bipolar theres a level of shame after an episode- you get depressed af, tell everyone you're gonna die, then come out of the mood swing and realised you really, really fucked up and everyone is gonna think you were baiting. Then, it happens all over again. Someone should have stepped in long before this happened and it's really fucking sad to me.

If he isn't dead, he better be in a fucking hospital getting some lithium shoved down his throat cause it looks like he sure as fuck needs it.
 
At this point what else could it be

Etika rejected any and all help from friends, family and even fans, blocking them on twitter, and even not responding to messages. People attempted but were quickly or eventually shut down.

Its funny that Triforce, 1 of his "top niggas" havent said anything, his last breakdown Triforce had a live stream saying "this is what us black people do, we been put down and this is our way of expression" etc etc and how he was fine mentally and how calling the police is not ok because hes black, and black people dont need that shit.
A longer stream was made where he then went into how nobody understands blacks and their lingo "Wakanda forever is Afrika to us", he also talks about how the dark web has shown Etika shit that he didnt want to see, just a load of bullshit tbh saying he wasnt suicidal because he ate bagels before drinking some high alcohol content devil springs drink.

If you never heard of him, its ok, he was "EVISCERATED" at the time he went to the nintendo switch launch scrounging for money or a Nintendo Switch, he was apparently payed to fly out to the Switch line and beg for people to get him one of the first switches, he brought a goodie bag to CND, another one of Etikas friends, a really big nintendo fan to sweeten him up for him to drop some switch money for him to buy this Nintendo Switch, hes super gay so thought he could somehow charm this CND kid.

He was told multiple times not to come to New York because if he didnt have the money to get the fuck back, he had no reason to be there, He got a gift for Triforce, A BAR OF BLACK SOAP, this is all relivent to the last few hours, there was a live stream where Etika and Triforce RINSE this dude out of the Nintendo community, nobody saw his face again after this day.
Theres a hell of a lot to this dude, along with getting his ass pounded and being in severe cramps the day after for a Nintenod Switch, or as Triforce says "THE NIGGA WAS SWITCHING FOR A SWITCH", the video is a classic with the Etika fans, worth the watch/listen.

His goodbye video after that stream, melted the dislikes

That guy looks like he just walked straight past him. Assuming it is Etika, it's a shame that most people driving and walking past him probably didn't even notice or care. If even one person who was driving past gave a shit we would probably have a definitive answer by now.

People become quite blind to cries for help and lose their empathy when they live in a big city. You just get burned out from all the beggars, scammers and crazy people - often times if you actually take time out of your day to step in and help you end up in a worse position than had you abstained. It's not ideal but it's just the way it is.
 
A video of the body being pulled out is circling the Etika subreddit.

(My phone is trash so someone else may need to archive)

Apparently, the body was wearing a white shirt, similar to what Etika was wearing in his final video.

Other rumors are circling that the body is black as well.

No confirmations yet, however.

People have been helping Etika for the past year or so. The first major incident was last year when apparently he declared he was going to do some "ARG" thing - which meant he could be play-acting what was going on. He went loopy, posting weird videos, posting porn to get his youtube totally deleted, and people honestly were like "wait is this the ARG or is this real?". His ex-gf and friends got him to a hospital but he was out within days. Whatever Etika has, it seemed to come with bursts of absolute insane babble and then revert back to "normal"

He seemed to apparently stabilize a bit for a few months. Etika claimed it was all a joke and that it was his ARG getting out of hand. Things went quiet but it doesn't sound like it was quite *right* during that time, fans complaining about his behaviour being like "screw you, give me money" and he would lapse into talking about cult stuff. Then he totally went off rails again and once again repeated posting stuff to get his youtube shuttered and babble nobody else really understood.

Friends or close people who tried to talk him into getting help started getting blocked for not "believing" in his weird angels stuff, bar the weird cultish people who started popping up in his DM's (according to screenshots he posted on twitter) who seemed to believe him. His ex didn't wanna deal with him, a lot of his friends were already blocked off, and that led to the Police break in when Etika had threatened suicide. He was admitted to hospital direct from that, released into the care of some of the weird cult people, almost immediately ended up back in hospital again after that.

Etika seemed to get released almost as soon as he became "stable" again, with no regard for how this comes and goes. But at the same time that became hard for the people who cared for him to keep coming to his rescue because to them it seems like he just ends up spending an afternoon or weekend in a medical facility before he's allowed to check out.

Ty for cluing me in. I assume they let him check out as he presents well, but its pretty easy to manipulate doctors/services and basically hide your crazy. There's a strange middle ground where you're delusional but have a tiny bit on insight into the fact that you know if you said half the stuff you're thinking out loud, you would be hospitalised in a heartbeat. I've actually lost friendships because of that, with people who have cut me off because they know I would call 999/911 on them without a second thought if they started going off the rails. It's heartbreaking but there's nothing you can do about it if the person doesn't want help.

Most people don't want to be in hospital, they'll do whatever they can to get out. If he is surrounded by people (these 'cult' people for example) that are enabling his delusions then thats even more sad. Just release him to people that will pat him on the head and tell him hes not sick its all the doctors fault, brilliant idea good job.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, if it turns out to be him in that river its gonna be pretty hard to explain away his actions as just a way 'us blacks express ourselves' or whatever they're banging on about in that video.
