He was told he was going to die at a young age. He was in and out of hospitals. The docs called him zombie boy and when he didn't die by the docs date, he embraced what scared him most. He was known as the kid about to die so he became death itself. That's why he has the tattoos. Nobody knew him after he finished the ink. He was noticed because he is a fashion model and has his own clothing line. Then everyone made a big deal about him because he is "different." Yet he is just like everyone else. just has plenty of gnarly tattoos. (:
to not judge on what we look like, but on the content of our character. Smart man. People who struggle with 'society' often are the best part about it, the caring ones who really define themselves with their own perspectives as he has done without allowing the public to destroy him for it. Suddenly, as adults, we look and marvel at those who were strong enough NOT to change and conform. if these kids see that courage and learn from him, good on them.
He's telling the truth bulling is everywhere in school, in the house, in the work place etc. We should end with this violence, and hate, that have taken thousands of lifes of kids of schools that have suicide because being bullied, is not fair, the government should put laws protecting the victims of this haters called bullies. And may love reign in this world.
How many of you actually know this guy personally? I bet not a single one of you judging him has ever actually met this man. You automatically assume his doing it for attention when you know nothing about him at all. Who cares about his physical appearance? It's his message that's important
Yes because if some 300 pound virgin was doing this same thing it would get just as many views. His message about anti bullying is bland and vanilla at best.
+Celestial Tho he does have a message as has done more for the people then you ever will lol. So calm your ass down and realize he's doing more then your sorry ass. Don't be jealous 😂
I know him personally and I dont particularly like him although I dont have anything against him either.. My friend dated him before he had all those tattoos. One thing for sure, he didnt do it for attention because he always hated attention, always hated people looking at him, kinda ironic now. In the end, hes just your typical homeless punk.
Okay first of all he didnt get tattos for attention. He got them because when he was born they called him zombie boy for a condition he was in when he was younger. And second of all he is unique and different in his own way. Why hate on him? Like theres no point. And if you dont like what im saying then that sucks im just speaking my thoughts. I love zombie boy
He's the sweetest guy I've ever met! I see him at work sometimes and he's a really nice and polite guy! My coworkers are making fun of me for being such a fangirl that they always tell me when he's in the store. Saying to me that my ''boyfriend'' is here. (Yeah... in my dreams I guess...) XD
I'm so sorry Rick and his loved ones. His death was so sudden :( (August 1, he fell off a building railing and died. There was theories that it was suicide but it was confirmed an accident..)
Actually I realized they're not really hateful comments, they're important remarks people are making, simply not knowing where he grew up and why is his behavior in such manner.
Me parece magnífico ya es hora de que pare esta lacra del bullyng en los colegios no hay que machacar a las personas por ser diferentes nadie tiene por qué hacerte la vida imposible es hora de que cambie la mentalidad de las personas por que todos somos iguales
Well, do not get me wrong. I do respect your opinion fully. I really do, and if you can say your opinion I wish to speak mine. Are you in his mind? No. Do you know what he thinks about as each day goes on? No. You do not have the power to get inside of his mind and know what he, sees, what he feels, how he sees the world. If you are not him, and he is also, not you. Why should you care at all. Why should anyone care at all.
Why shouldn't one see him as beautiful? He has the same face as everyone else popularly known for being attractive... skulls are just a few layers beneath the surface, after all.
you should probably educate yourself before judging other ppl.. he had a brain tumor when he was a little kid so he missed a lot of school because he spent a long time in the hospital.. he was homeless when he was a teenager and the "alternative" people with piercings, tattoos, etc, were the ones who took care of him, so he saw them as his family.. next time maybe do a 10 second google search before you try to psychoanalyze what you don't know anything about..
I like clothes with spikes in them because they look cool--not because they could harm somebody. using clothes like that to cause harm doesn't even come to my mind when I look at things that have spikes or grommets in them.
Underneath, what we are IS skin and bones. It's not really a "zombie look," imo. (I know him as Skull Boy & Rick Genest). It's not a "death look," it's a "what's underneath our skin anyways look" lol. But anyways, he had a brain tumor and was put on a waitlist for 6 months.
they let him in, a smoker, with a bunch of tattoos, and spiky clothes in? Honestly, yes i think it is very nice to talk about his story but literally what schools would do that? smokers are not allowed in school buildings.
Play Time What are you saying, a smoker. It was a stick of chalk, you need to get your eyes tested. Smokers are allowed in school buildings but they are not allowed to smoke when in them or on school grounds.
I don't see whats the fuss about this guy,he felt different so he tattoed all his body ..everebody feels different in some way,doesn;t mean you should do this shit which by the way doesn't mean a thing
***** I really don't care, its his body let him do what he pleases..but if It would be my son who wants this I would try my best to tell him that how he feel now will pass and ink stays with him..this tattoo fever remains till 25,after that you cool off
Wish this guy had the smarts and personality of a Marilyn Manson or someone like that. He just seems like an unintelligible half wit who got crazy tats for no reason.
Rick is a bad ass for looking evil but having a strong heart.
Rest in peace, Rick Genest. We will miss you and your positivity.
Haha he holds the chalk like a cigarette.
Haha yeh. It's a smokers habit thing, I've not smoked for 4 years but still find myself holding a pen like a cig for sometimes.
Victoria Grace I legitimately thought that was a cigarette

He got the name zombie boy from his friends he said it in another interview
You're obviously lying but holy shit imagine if doctors did call you that in the hospital, you'd have to try to not give up
+Joseph Madder it's actually true! u just saw the interview where he said it
I think the tattoos look awesome
Diffrent not mean freak :-)

He's so attractive, and the way he talks is so cute

Geez, his ink is captivating. I'm not a fan of full-body tats, but... that is done beautifully.

He's the sweetest guy I've ever met! I see him at work sometimes and he's a really nice and polite guy! My coworkers are making fun of me for being such a fangirl that they always tell me when he's in the store. Saying to me that my ''boyfriend'' is here. (Yeah... in my dreams I guess...) XD

All the hateful comments on here. Like nobody has other problems than a certain fanbase.
Actually I realized they're not really hateful comments, they're important remarks people are making, simply not knowing where he grew up and why is his behavior in such manner.
Is it Halloween?
Rest in piece zombie boy 😔🙁

Me parece magnífico ya es hora de que pare esta lacra del bullyng en los colegios no hay que machacar a las personas por ser diferentes nadie tiene por qué hacerte la vida imposible es hora de que cambie la mentalidad de las personas por que todos somos iguales
Yes he is correct. Now i understand his tatoo.
He has a good point. :-)
COOL!!!

He went to my school
Thumbs up for this guy! He is awesome! I think he is totally hot!
Well, do not get me wrong. I do respect your opinion fully. I really do, and if you can say your opinion I wish to speak mine. Are you in his mind? No. Do you know what he thinks about as each day goes on? No. You do not have the power to get inside of his mind and know what he, sees, what he feels, how he sees the world.

His tattoos are pretty dope

+adrianne ecstasy one day, when you grow up and can buy beer for yourself...
you will hopefully be attracted to men who can get a job.
+Pan tera lol you seem upset. Maybe you should just get off of TH-cam for a bit.
adrianne ecstasy upset?
sorry but these are MY actual pictures, if anything this tool makes me feel much, much better about myself.
Why shouldn't one see him as beautiful? He has the same face as everyone else popularly known for being attractive... skulls are just a few layers beneath the surface, after all.
miss great individuals like u, this world is too stereotype
I'mma miss u bro
He is beautiful
Bullying is fucked up
he is so cool omg I want him for friend but that's impossible he is famous now :)
you should probably educate yourself before judging other ppl.. he had a brain tumor when he was a little kid so he missed a lot of school because he spent a long time in the hospital.. he was homeless when he was a teenager and the "alternative" people with piercings, tattoos, etc, were the ones who took care of him, so he saw them as his family.. next time maybe do a 10 second google search before you try to psychoanalyze what you don't know anything about..
His vest is hug-proof lol
I wonder if he has a girlfriend or boyfriend?
my name is Clayton sanders
He is so cute
A guy wearing clothes with spikes on them talking against violence I think it makes little sense...
Just because he's dressed like that doesn't mean he's a violent person.
I like clothes with spikes in them because they look cool--not because they could harm somebody. using clothes like that to cause harm doesn't even come to my mind when I look at things that have spikes or grommets in them.
Never knew wearing spiky stuff was promoting violence.
Damn straight *****
stu wilks a victim of the modern era
1:42 the girl eye screwed him hard
y?
He was against violence, except for the violence he did to his own body and forced complete strangers to see.
I think it's cool
BULLYING SUCKS!!!!!!
ILOVEYOU
He is freakin away smoking omg
I don't get it doing that death look.
Underneath, what we are IS skin and bones. It's not really a "zombie look," imo. (I know him as Skull Boy & Rick Genest). It's not a "death look," it's a "what's underneath our skin anyways look" lol. But anyways, he had a brain tumor and was put on a waitlist for 6 months.
underneath us all is a spooky skeleton and its copying our every move
they let him in, a smoker, with a bunch of tattoos, and spiky clothes in? Honestly, yes i think it is very nice to talk about his story but literally what schools would do that? smokers are not allowed in school buildings.
It was a chalk...
Play Time What are you saying, a smoker. It was a stick of chalk, you need to get your eyes tested. Smokers are allowed in school buildings but they are not allowed to smoke when in them or on school grounds.
Actually, he speaks weirdly because he comes from Quebec, a french speaking place.
omg that girl has a Jenna Marbles bag! :D
oh my god why is this guy always smoking a cigerrete
rick, can you marry me?... I love your personality and how you carry yourself about... (0/////0)
He's got the sickest tats :)
The girl in the middle 0:05 is more cute
โคตรเท่เห็นแล้วใช้เรย
Daymmmm he's cute

Check out this hot Rick Genest modelling for Rocawear video if you're a fan! Search Rocawear SS13 in You Tube search
Yeah, thats because you have bullied half of the girls from the gntm serie, makes sense now.
he is sooooooo hot!!!!!!
Well....HA HA HA
This dude needs Jesus!
Just because your different doesn't mean you "need" Jesus 😒
I don't see whats the fuss about this guy,he felt different so he tattoed all his body ..everebody feels different in some way,doesn;t mean you should do this shit which by the way doesn't mean a thing

He had a brain tumour as a kid, affected him.
mrbreckles plus where he grew up, it was a norm to be completely tattoo'ed.
He's not a performer like MM, he's just a person with lots of tattoos who got famous for being in a Lady Gaga video.
I love him. He is fucking awesome!
