Christina Grimmie’s murder was absolutely shocking and one of the few TH-cam/TH-camr moments that really bled out into mainstream culture the moment that it happened. RIP Christina.
She was mainstream at that point in her career . Her music career was just as big if not bigger then her TH-cam career (although I know her TH-cam was singing based you know what I mean)
Another good youtuber was Grant Thompson. Hes known as the legendary The King Of Random. From backyard science to amazing projects, Grant dedicated his time to learning. After a while, he had to step back so he could tend to do something much greater. His wife and kids. Grant lost his life in a para motoring accident.
i remember watching him make the lego gummies and the "magic mud" made from potatoes. i was so sad when i learned that he died. R.I.P to Grant Thompson, the true King of Random
TinFoilChef was an older Minecraft youtuber who passed. He was on Hermitcraft and was known for accepting that he couldn’t play as much so he kept things slow and peaceful. It was a really refreshing contrast to the other hermits that would get full diamond in just a couple episodes while TFC was still in iron for ages, farming mostly by hand, just walking around everywhere instead of getting Elytra and Rockets really quickly, etc.
@@adelacristina5665fr i thought he just wanted to take a break and i was upset for a day on what happened to him cause i usually watch his vids if i had a bad day, and i also didn’t know the rest of the story about the whole girlfriend thingy
He was taken away from us too early. He was getting too popular years ago, and it was getting attention... Now other translator content creators have started popping up, but none with the finesse of Laoshu. I believe his brother, Mark. RIP.
Laoshu, man... What an inspiring individual. He highlighted a side of TH-cam that millions of people never knew about. He inspired people to learn languages and even create TH-cam channels highlighting such. He is one of my biggest inspirations to learn languages and make TH-cam videos. You'll never be forgotten, Laoshu. Rest in Peace; hopefully he's still doing what he loves in Heaven
I remember the day Etika was "lost" to then hear about his death a couple days later was a day I will never forget, Etika was a legend and must not be forgotten
I remember sitting in class hoping he’d turn up safe and sound and he never did, that shit was ROUGH for me at the time. Really sucks he went out the way he did
@@mrmcmeme8919 Yeah same, I was following the story ever since he was not confirmed " dead " I was worried everyday and just wanted to hear the news of him being found alive
Rest In Peace Techno… i cried so hard when he died. I was sad for a whole 7 months, until i slowly got over it. But remembering he died, sometimes still makes me cry.
@@ThatC1official ‘cry about it’ yeah I’m saying some stuff about a beloved TH-camr who died and you randomly replied with ‘womp womp’ so you’re not funny
@@elliotrodriguez523 I feel like it's both kind of sad, but also a joke he would have totally made that the last video on his channel is beating New Vegas addicted to every chem.
I miss etika. Seeing his manic episodes become more unhinged and frequent leading up to his suicide was tough to watch. To this day I still get a little sad when a big game series or anime/Manga he loved gets a new installment or finally ends, cuz we will never get to see him pop off over some hype ass shit again. Nobody did it like him. He was so fucking expressive and passionate in the most infectious way, and it never felt like he was just acting wild for attention. Even in the early days when he was a small channel, he was the same way. I grew up watching him through my teens, and he had a real impact on the person I am now. I stand by the things I'm passionate about and I'm not afraid to express that passion in front of anybody. It's probably part of why I can get on stage and do vocals every week in front of a crowd of people and get people hype. I carry that same energy he had streaming into me being a metal vocalist.
While I definitely agree on that, I could also argue that Kai Cenat is as close to Etika’s impact as subjectively possible for this generation of young adults. I sincerely hope Kai doesn’t share in Etika’s fate
I love coming back to this video a lot, as someone who enjoyed Technoblade so much, it feels bad ever thinking he's passed and been gone for so long. My only wish is that this video talked more about him, and the impact he left behind.
I am from Argentina, I still remember the case of Tomii 11, all of Latin America came together to fulfill a child's dream... it was beautiful. At this time, the Tomiii channel is used to publicize other cases of children with cancer or health problems. (I'm using Google Translate, sorry if there are any errors!)

I like this video Sunny, you cover their stories in a general sense and try not to be too descriptive or personal about it giving it a sense of respect.
Fuck this actually hurts. Etika was literally the only streamers i would watch fully. his old vods. his lives, and just everything he had to offer. his words and advice were like a scholars, he had an amazing way with words and he still made an impact with his fans till this day. Rest easy Desmond. 🖤 JoyConBoyz for life 🕊️
@@JxbrlFr that last 72 hours was torture. Watching people that supposedly care about him talk nonstop shit about him was horrible. Like screw that dude from drama alert. Fake as a man can get
Forever and always, I will be one of the JoyConBoyz. RIP Etika, I wish I had found your stuff sooner. Even if it was half real and half an act I will always remember your pure levels of hype.
@@CodetreyGreat men like Technoblade have no need to be part of your family or friend group. He was an inspiration to millions, a comedic genius and one of, if not THE best Minecraft PVPers to ever exist. On top of that he’s on the list of a surprisingly few popular Minecraft content creators with virtually no dark past or controversies.
@@stxresHe did absolutely nothing wrong, and many people see him as a legend, even the TH-cam company itself. If he was this good, of course it's possible that people would be mourning over his death.
I honestly miss techno so much, I started watching him while I was still a kid and he would always make me laugh no matter how bad my day at school was. He was the only youtuber I watched almost daily and he was such an incredible and inspiring person. RIP techno.
Yeah she was a horrible girlfriend and influence on him. Instead of helping him when he is clearly in some sort of psychosis after injecting/ingesting drugs she just records him…
@@adamdahlstrom2095I have mixed feelings tbh. On one hand it is a good idea to record him so she can show him how he acted, when in psychosis you don’t really remember much. But on the other hand, posting it online was a questionable decision
It's great that we're not letting these people die. They're forever inspiring us as long as we remember them. This video also reminded me of Zyzz, and I had to go watch the video you made about him. We can't forget what these people brought to us.
Its even worse to think, the same people joking about it and telling him to keep going, influencing it etc, are the same ones saying RIP and acting innocent(Not everyone, just the ones who did it)
Was really hoping that Mitten Squad would be mentioned. He was an inspiration for many gamers who would challenge themselves to go beyond their limit with various challenges. May he rest in peace.
it's a shame edd gould wasn't on that list, even if he didn't really start on youtube, eddsworld was a part on many people's childhood, may his world never stop spinning
@@jardelmartins This video is not abt death youtubers, its abt death youtubers that will bring the most clout. Eddsworld fandom is pretty small so edds death wouldnt bring much clout
God I missed laoshu. His talent for languages is astonishing and the reactions on peoples faces when he speaks their languages was so heartwarming. RIP Legend
I remembered I used to watch his video on my recommendations a lot, dude always chill and friendly whenever he talked with the foreigners. Can't believe he passed away.
Seeing the “So Long Nerds” video pop up in my notifications was a heartbreak I had never felt before. I knew before even watching the video. So long Technoblade, May you fly high and take down the governments in the sky. 🕊️
There was a song published by Diamond Eyes which was made for Christina Grimmie after she died called “23”. Didn’t realize this until I read a comment on that song.
Yeah, that song is absolutely heartbreaking, I think I figured out pretty early it was about Christina Grimmie, but that only makes the song that much more chilling. I have like 100 listens + on that song.
I still remember the day that Techno's death was announced I woke up on the morning of 1 July, scrolled through my subscription feed and saw a community post from Dream expressing that he was heartbroken after hearing the news about Techno losing his battle Keep in mind that I was half asleep when I read that post, it took a few moments to realise what I had just read, but I was fully awake once I realised Legends never die 👑🐷🖤
I was an avid Techno fan, one day in the car i got a text, i was in an uber going home from the airport, my friend texted me and i didnt believe him, until i watched the video :(
I stayed up that night the video in my timezone was uploaded at 3 am. I saw the notification and i was so excited for a technoblade video. When i heard the news i was in shock i watched the entire video completely stunned, i clicked the replay button and when his dad started reading the message: " Hi, Technoblade here if you are watching this i'm dead." i burst into tears, that was the hardest ive cried in years.
Seeing Bernard here genuiely made me cry. I remember seeing his "An old mans advice" video recommended to me a few years ago when i was really struggling with anxiety and felt very depressed, his words make me cry a lot back then and give me a bit of light of hope to keep going. And is even more sad to me because i found he passed away with this video, and makes me feel bad for not knowing it earlier. I hope his words keeps helping a lot more people in the future, as it helped me back then and now. R.I.P Bernard Albertson.
I feel for you bro. I stopped watching technoblade for a month or 2 and wanted to check up on him (he was/is my favorite TH-camr) only to see a video “so long nerds”🥲💛
@@TristanWolfGustavsen That must have been really hard for you too man. From what i saw in the video, he surely was a really nice and kind guy. And honestly, it's nice to see how many people still and will remember him for all the years that has to come.
I need to mention Brian Barczyk. He was a reptile enthusiast and the owner of a reptile zoo named the Reptarium and had over five million subscribers on TH-cam. I actually visited the Reptarium in 2020 and got to meet him and some of his team. They were all great people and the Reptarium is a really cool place. Brian passed away in January of this year at the age of 54 after his battle with pancreatic cancer. R.I.P. Brian Barczyk
@@WookieWoman It’s a terrible disease. My grandfather passed away a few weeks ago from inoperable pancreatic cancer only about a month or so after he was diagnosed with it. It kind of makes it more serious to me now that my grandfather also passed away from the same thing. Brian was like 20 years younger than my grandfather though so that makes his death quite tragic as he still had a lot more life to live.
I remember when Claire passed. It made huge waves in the CF Community. Every doctor and nurse that was caring for me was talking about her. Honestly sad to see her pass at like 21. Even with all the amazing tech and medicine and research it’s heartbreaking 💔
Another one is Michigun. He was the best star grinder in geometry dash. He used to have the world record for most stars, having over 60000. He also was a great creator, making parts in beloved extreme demons, and creating his own levels. The cause of his death is unknown, but it was sad to see him go.
Nah, GD is not as popular, nor are people really invested in it's community, nor will they care, probably. Actually, I'm pretty sure every game has a person like Michi - popular, good at the game, genuinely a good person, that passed away, for Minecraft it was Techno for example. Listing those people will probably make the video twice as long.
The guy who can speak 50 languages is just sad. I hope his family are doing well and his legacy won’t be forgotten. He used his knowledge of language to spread positivity to the world.
@@DistractedGlobeGuy When you say "sons" who do you mean? There is no records or evidence that says Michael Green or Charlie Green were rapists, if your talking about Charlie Green I can understand it, he wasn't a good person but Michael or no one else in the family did anything wrong and Charlie went to prison
You're most certainly going to have to make a part two. Joseph Robert Wilson, or as he calls himself in his videos: Paul of Mitten Squad. The community he built is still strong, the things he did in defining a type of gameplay where the goal is a goofy challenge or a really hard one. He was struggling, yes, but the Fallout and Elder Scrolls community has lost a Legend. And damn, man. Joseph did the same thing apetor did. He made a community post about how he's "not dead, despite the rumors." And he died a short week or two after. Rest in piece to all the Legends who are lost. You will not be forgotten.
Wait Mitten Squad passed away??? I read this comment and was like, wait, this sounds like someone im subscribed to, i search up the channel just to see thats exactly who you’re talking about, wtf man :/
Another person I would like to add that I don’t see on these that often, Talia Joy. She was a little beauty guru with a popular channel in the early 2010’s. She was diagnosed with cancer when she was just 7 years old, and passed away at only 13. I remember she was so full of life and happiness despite everything she was going through. She was truly a beautiful soul.
rip technoblade… used to watch him sometimes honourable mentions: cooking with lynja, one of the sweetest content creators and cooking TH-camrs. Always loved her vids ❤ tinfoilchef, a true hermit. RIP legends 🕊
Oh Etika and totalbiscuit Shame though keemstar joked about your diagnosis before you passed EDIT: I blame keemstar more on totalbiscuit and not on etika, I don't think keem egged on etika after his passing
Keem and etika where on good terms. Etika loved keem and dramaalert. It wasnt keems fault, even etikas own family have good relations with keemstar, and publically called for the internet to stop blaming keem. It was a horrible situation, and nobody's fault individually.
We need a second episode on this topic ! It is so nice to remember these great souls who passed away, man you brought up tears to my eyes, I was feeling nostalgic during the entire video, these guys were my child hood for most of them, and some others like Apetor were just so natural and nice as a person, true TH-camrs, here to entertain you and not here for clout, not begging for likes and subs, just casually drinking his little shots of Vodka and jumping into frozen water with a chainsaw , the kind of simple man we all loved. Anyway, I see a lot of names in the comments that weren't included in this video so honestly , I think we can all agree on the fact that we need to get a "Beloved TH-camrs Who Died As Legends Part 2"
Yeah, and Hobo Shoestring needs a spot on this list! He helped so. Many. People. Travelers and housed, too. Helped me know which trains to look for while I was riding freight, and still found the time to make great TH-cam videos.
8:18 My cousin had Cystic Fibrosis, and had passed away at the age of 19 when she was going to have a lung transplant, but decided it was better to pass on without anymore pain. I miss you Taylor ♥️
Was just gonna comment where was Yoteslaya. I watched that man complete so many zombies Easter Eggs. Still remember him doing origins solo. He's still missed for sure.
I was heartbroken that Tommy was not there when he got his play button because he passed but his parents were at least there knowing his dream came true, I know up there he would be smiling. Fly high lil bro 🕊️
That Tommy story is amazing, heartwarming, but very tragic. RIP and thank you for showing us how good ppl are capable of being and that there's some good ppl left in the world.
As someone who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis it’s definitely deliberating there’s good days there’s bad days. Fortunately for me I’ve never been in such bad health as Claire Winefield was. Only been hospitalized twice my junior and senior year of high school both times put an end to my plans for college. Rest in Peace Claire
Etika was one of my favorite youtuber/streamers at the time. I actually saw his las video he posted before he passed away and it was terrifying knowing what was most likely about to happen from the video. I wish you went more in depth with his story and what all happened with him though :(
Keeping Bernard Albertson and Technoblade next to each other to show the irony how one's son is keeping his channel alive and how the other's dad is keeping his channel alive was a great decision ❤
"Someone once said that when you die from cancer, the cancer dies too. that's not a loss - that's a draw." Technoblade never loses.

I miss etika. Seeing his manic episodes become more unhinged and frequent leading up to his suicide was tough to watch. To this day I still get a little sad when a big game series or anime/Manga he loved gets a new installment or finally ends, cuz we will never get to see him pop off over some hype ass shit again. Nobody did it like him. He was so fucking expressive and passionate in the most infectious way, and it never felt like he was just acting wild for attention.

Even hearing about Technoblades death still makes me cry
why? Was he a part of your family or a close friend?
@@Codetrey he is a legend
@@CodetreyGreat men like Technoblade have no need to be part of your family or friend group. He was an inspiration to millions, a comedic genius and one of, if not THE best Minecraft PVPers to ever exist. On top of that he’s on the list of a surprisingly few popular Minecraft content creators with virtually no dark past or controversies.
💀
@@stxresHe did absolutely nothing wrong, and many people see him as a legend, even the TH-cam company itself. If he was this good, of course it's possible that people would be mourning over his death.
I honestly miss techno so much, I started watching him while I was still a kid and he would always make me laugh no matter how bad my day at school was. He was the only youtuber I watched almost daily and he was such an incredible and inspiring person. RIP techno.
Rich reassuring his girlfriend telling he's "set" when he knew very well he wasn't okay is so heartbreaking.
Yeah she was a horrible girlfriend and influence on him. Instead of helping him when he is clearly in some sort of psychosis after injecting/ingesting drugs she just records him…
@@adamdahlstrom2095she was terrible but nobody talked about that. She helped rich die quicker
@@adamdahlstrom2095I have mixed feelings tbh. On one hand it is a good idea to record him so she can show him how he acted, when in psychosis you don’t really remember much. But on the other hand, posting it online was a questionable decision
@@adamdahlstrom2095That doesn’t look like psychosis to me
@@adamdahlstrom2095 Don't mistake his last girlfriend chanel with the horrible icelandic ex wife who recorded him
12:50 still with cancer he was dominating every Minecraft pvp-er
I mean, cancer isnt as invasive as like covid or something. its why people find it so late
nah after his death his friends raised hundreds of millions of dollars for cancer research, so cancer lost more than technoblade

Totalbiscuit and Reckful both hit me hard.
Absolute legends to the WoW community
Whoa I didn't know Reckful passed away
Suicide is not legendary. LMFAO. That's called dying like a peasant, and unfortunately, TH-cam got the best of one.
yeah, I remember Reckfuls death super clearly, insanely sad day.
Absolutely and fudgemuppet too he passed recently
rip reckful
It's great that we're not letting these people die. They're forever inspiring us as long as we remember them. This video also reminded me of Zyzz, and I had to go watch the video you made about him.
We can't forget what these people brought to us.
I fucking miss Apetor so much. His videos were goofy but fun and not chaotic and lound. What a true legend.
Rip apetor
When I learned about his death, I thought that this was only the beginning of the worst in the world
He's kinda like an extreme version of Mr. Bean and I loved it. RIP apetor
Suicide is not legendary. LMFAO. That's called dying like a peasant, and unfortunately, TH-cam got the best of one.
I miss Etika so much man. The most frustrating part of it all is that the signs he needed help were obvious, but people kept laughing it off
I always look back and think of how things could’ve been taken differently. This stuff still hurts till this day.
You didnt know them
Its even worse to think, the same people joking about it and telling him to keep going, influencing it etc, are the same ones saying RIP and acting innocent(Not everyone, just the ones who did it)
@ville__ I hate this so much.

Was really hoping that Mitten Squad would be mentioned. He was an inspiration for many gamers who would challenge themselves to go beyond their limit with various challenges. May he rest in peace.

Seeing the “So Long Nerds” video pop up in my notifications was a heartbreak I had never felt before. I knew before even watching the video. So long Technoblade, May you fly high and take down the governments in the sky. 🕊️
There was a song published by Diamond Eyes which was made for Christina Grimmie after she died called “23”. Didn’t realize this until I read a comment on that song.
holllyyy, i listen to that song regularly. i didn't know it's about her. RIP
@@teddm835 yeah she didn’t deserve that it’s so sad
Yeah, that song is absolutely heartbreaking, I think I figured out pretty early it was about Christina Grimmie, but that only makes the song that much more chilling. I have like 100 listens + on that song.
sometimes fans go crazy . very unfortunate.
Zyzz truly was an inspiration for millions. Too sad, that he wasn't mentioned in the video.
right? he's almost always in these kinds of videos, even more surprised I had to scroll so far to see a mention.
he was a bad role model for the youth with all the steroid abuse.
I still remember the day that Techno's death was announced
I woke up on the morning of 1 July, scrolled through my subscription feed and saw a community post from Dream expressing that he was heartbroken after hearing the news about Techno losing his battle
Keep in mind that I was half asleep when I read that post, it took a few moments to realise what I had just read, but I was fully awake once I realised
Legends never die 👑🐷🖤
I was an avid Techno fan, one day in the car i got a text, i was in an uber going home from the airport, my friend texted me and i didnt believe him, until i watched the video :(
Same happened too me, but I saw another post by a Channel called "hero destiny". It said some like "check this video, we lost a legend today'.
I stayed up that night the video in my timezone was uploaded at 3 am. I saw the notification and i was so excited for a technoblade video. When i heard the news i was in shock i watched the entire video completely stunned, i clicked the replay button and when his dad started reading the message: " Hi, Technoblade here if you are watching this i'm dead." i burst into tears, that was the hardest ive cried in years.
mine was from a youtube notification of techno posting his newest video, i cannot believe it..
I first found out about it from a post from aCookieGod. I didn't believe it at first until I saw the video on techno's channel. RIP technoblade
I didn't expected an english channel talk about Tomiii's case. Thanks for give it exposure, man. 🙏
The Grimmie story is still the saddest thing to ever happen to a TH-camr. so scary and sad 😔
"Self defense"
Erick what are you doing here?
And yet, people loike you remained silent. The saddest part of this is that you did NOTHING to help, nor his fans. So you're all responsible
@@arsenioseslpodcast3143grimmie ain't a dude fool. Might wanna edit your copy/paste prompt from time to time
@@universpro7741he just walked up to her and shot her and then himself, how is it self defense?
Seeing Bernard here genuiely made me cry. I remember seeing his "An old mans advice" video recommended to me a few years ago when i was really struggling with anxiety and felt very depressed, his words make me cry a lot back then and give me a bit of light of hope to keep going. And is even more sad to me because i found he passed away with this video, and makes me feel bad for not knowing it earlier.
I hope his words keeps helping a lot more people in the future, as it helped me back then and now. R.I.P Bernard Albertson.
I feel for you bro.
I stopped watching technoblade for a month or 2 and wanted to check up on him (he was/is my favorite TH-camr) only to see a video “so long nerds”🥲💛
@@TristanWolfGustavsen That must have been really hard for you too man. From what i saw in the video, he surely was a really nice and kind guy. And honestly, it's nice to see how many people still and will remember him for all the years that has to come.
I need to mention Brian Barczyk. He was a reptile enthusiast and the owner of a reptile zoo named the Reptarium and had over five million subscribers on TH-cam. I actually visited the Reptarium in 2020 and got to meet him and some of his team. They were all great people and the Reptarium is a really cool place. Brian passed away in January of this year at the age of 54 after his battle with pancreatic cancer. R.I.P. Brian Barczyk
🇵🇱😔
Definitely he was one of the biggest animal youtubers, it was so sad when he passed away.
He was an awesome dude. It was awful to watch him become so frail in such a short time.
@@WookieWoman It’s a terrible disease. My grandfather passed away a few weeks ago from inoperable pancreatic cancer only about a month or so after he was diagnosed with it. It kind of makes it more serious to me now that my grandfather also passed away from the same thing. Brian was like 20 years younger than my grandfather though so that makes his death quite tragic as he still had a lot more life to live.
Laoshu's passing hit me the hardest when it happened, so sad to happen to such a talented genuine soul.
same bro
Congrats for 100k likes
Glad Techno is on here. His humor brought smiles to millions of people like me who pretty much grew up with his humor.
Even Etika too. Man I miss his livestreams 😢
Technoblade never dies.
“I used an advance technique called LYING!”
@@Marcuskwok-hn5yi brotha u have no idea .stfu
I remember when Claire passed. It made huge waves in the CF Community. Every doctor and nurse that was caring for me was talking about her. Honestly sad to see her pass at like 21. Even with all the amazing tech and medicine and research it’s heartbreaking 💔
Suicide is not legendary. LMFAO. That's called dying like a peasant, and unfortunately, TH-cam got the best of one.
Moses had something genuine about him that I haven't seen in other TH-cam polyglots.
He had a genuine fluency in every language that he spoke it was wild.
the tomii one is actually sad and wholesome, he achieved his dream.. but at what cost?
Another one is Michigun. He was the best star grinder in geometry dash. He used to have the world record for most stars, having over 60000. He also was a great creator, making parts in beloved extreme demons, and creating his own levels. The cause of his death is unknown, but it was sad to see him go.
I was looking for this comment. I play gd also, so when I heard about it in 2021, I was so sad, because he was such an influence in the community 😔
/\/\/\❤
he ruined bloodbath
Nah, GD is not as popular, nor are people really invested in it's community, nor will they care, probably. Actually, I'm pretty sure every game has a person like Michi - popular, good at the game, genuinely a good person, that passed away, for Minecraft it was Techno for example. Listing those people will probably make the video twice as long.
@@jackkrishkabe respectful
The guy who can speak 50 languages is just sad. I hope his family are doing well and his legacy won’t be forgotten.
He used his knowledge of language to spread positivity to the world.
@@teaguel001where’s the nearest psych ward to your current location
Why would she have done that to him?
Did anyone ever found out the truth behind his death?
@@teaguel001 that's dark man....
And his mandarin is quiet good comparing to others who only speaks like two words. It seems that his whole family is spiritual yet profound

RIP Hobo Shoestring! Another man who gave great advice and was peaceful to watch.
Honorable mention kitty0706
Used to watch a lot of TF2 sketches of his..
First comment seeing Kitty0706, man that long one of his. Insanely good comedy for the time. Its nice to see a Gmodtuber being mentioned.
I would also include Edd Gould from Edd's World. Miss that guy, still can't believe he died age 23 from cancer, legit heartbreaking.
His death impacted Tomska massively, and we would only know this years later. Glad Tomska bounced back much later on.
@@FredericoASousa Tomska is a female dog
Yeah, he made my childhood and increased my love for goofy SOL type things.
You forgot to mention Angry Grandpa. He died on December 2017 after he had cancer. He was 67 years old. He was also the most beloved TH-camr.
He truly was beloved. A caring, funny legendary man he was
What sadly killed agp was serosis of the liver, he beat cancer twice
RIP Angry Grandpa
He destroyed his reputation by forcing his rapist sons back into the family.
@@DistractedGlobeGuy Well, Charlie was the rapist, not Michael
@@DistractedGlobeGuy When you say "sons" who do you mean? There is no records or evidence that says Michael Green or Charlie Green were rapists, if your talking about Charlie Green I can understand it, he wasn't a good person but Michael or no one else in the family did anything wrong and Charlie went to prison
If you do another mention Kitty0706. He was an OG on youtube that past away from cancer. Made some of the best GMod videos Ive seen to date haha
You're most certainly going to have to make a part two. Joseph Robert Wilson, or as he calls himself in his videos: Paul of Mitten Squad. The community he built is still strong, the things he did in defining a type of gameplay where the goal is a goofy challenge or a really hard one. He was struggling, yes, but the Fallout and Elder Scrolls community has lost a Legend.
And damn, man. Joseph did the same thing apetor did. He made a community post about how he's "not dead, despite the rumors." And he died a short week or two after.
Rest in piece to all the Legends who are lost. You will not be forgotten.
Grant Thompson too. He's the creator of the channel The King of Random.
I genuinely cried when mitten squad passed away
@@kince7629 I did too.
@@NightmareKing0203 Yes, absolutely.
Wait Mitten Squad passed away??? I read this comment and was like, wait, this sounds like someone im subscribed to, i search up the channel just to see thats exactly who you’re talking about, wtf man :/

Hope your playing as Ridley in Smash bros where ever you are now🙏
Another person I would like to add that I don’t see on these that often, Talia Joy. She was a little beauty guru with a popular channel in the early 2010’s. She was diagnosed with cancer when she was just 7 years old, and passed away at only 13. I remember she was so full of life and happiness despite everything she was going through. She was truly a beautiful soul.
An absolute icon 💖
The Technoblade video "so long nerds" broke me for at least 4 months and even now I always cry when i watch the video.
rip technoblade… used to watch him sometimes
honourable mentions: cooking with lynja, one of the sweetest content creators and cooking TH-camrs. Always loved her vids ❤
tinfoilchef, a true hermit. RIP legends 🕊

Keem and etika where on good terms. Etika loved keem and dramaalert. It wasnt keems fault, even etikas own family have good relations with keemstar, and publically called for the internet to stop blaming keem. It was a horrible situation, and nobody's fault individually.

The story of that kid who went viral is devastating. It’s amazing everyone joined together to give his his wish, hope his family is doing okay
the comicstorian passed away this year too, made my passion and interest for comics grow so much.
We need a second episode on this topic ! It is so nice to remember these great souls who passed away, man you brought up tears to my eyes, I was feeling nostalgic during the entire video, these guys were my child hood for most of them, and some others like Apetor were just so natural and nice as a person, true TH-camrs, here to entertain you and not here for clout, not begging for likes and subs, just casually drinking his little shots of Vodka and jumping into frozen water with a chainsaw , the kind of simple man we all loved. Anyway, I see a lot of names in the comments that weren't included in this video so honestly , I think we can all agree on the fact that we need to get a "Beloved TH-camrs Who Died As Legends Part 2"
Yeah, and Hobo Shoestring needs a spot on this list! He helped so. Many. People. Travelers and housed, too. Helped me know which trains to look for while I was riding freight, and still found the time to make great TH-cam videos.
And yet, people loike you remained silent. The saddest part of this is that you did NOTHING to help, nor his fans. So you're all responsible
