The fact that he says "I was so underweight, you can see my bones!" but doesn't acknowledge that he went into the complete other side of the spectrum is horrible. The fact that you were unhealthy when you were skinny does not mean you are healthier right now
nikocado's channel is a perfect example of why a balanced diet is the key to being healthy. he has tried both extremes and both let him to horrible health.
Nicokado Avocado is simply a barely closeted fat fetishist. I know plenty of women like him, female influencers and female TH-camrs included... as a matter-of-fact, *I was their feeder.* Edit: He really has a bad reputation within both OnlyFans and the online Fat Admirer community. Nearly ruined my venture into the online feederism game, back to my OF subscriber days. Second Edit: Btw, this morbidly super obese TH-camr on Niko's left at the 14:45 mark is a widely popular USSBBW feedee model on the adult industry. Google up her name. Nikocado barely hid his connections to the gargantuan underbelly of the fat fetishism demimonde (no pun intended) .
Yeah, even though the ending is sad, the fact he posted a video to applaud him when he was making healthier choices and seemingly doing better truly warmed my heart. It is quite obvious that Charlie just wants people to not be a bad influence on others and educate people who need it on how to be critical thinkers who try to make the world a better place - or at least to not add toxicity to it. He is not about hating people but about hating certain behavior. And the amount of effort he put into setting things straight and also showing the good things of his 'subject' should make it very clear that he cares about people more than anything.
I honestly owe Nikocado a bit for my current health. I tuned into one of his video and watched a bit and realized that I was eating pretty similar portions. That realization and a few other factors has led me down a far healither path.
I feel like Charlie's favorite quote of all time is: "Never talk to someone stupid, because they will beat you down to their level then beat you with experience."
@@d_ryosuke honestly thanks for the info. I searched that quote up lake a few months before posting this comment. So I just put the first thing that came to my mind that made since.
Charlie’s favorite quote of all time is: “Never talk to someone stupid, because they will beat you down to their level then beat you with experience.” Wow, so you ‘can’ make that statement without saying, “I feel like,” was just curious….
Nikocado was the reason I started my weight los. I know how I DON'T want to end up like. Lost 17kg (37.48 lbs) in the past 6 months. Edit (3weeks later): Now a total of 20kg (44lbs~). I'm still going. Edit 2: I really appreciate all the kind words of everyone. Whoever is also going for weightlos: YOU CAN DO IT. Got another 4kg (~9lbs) down. Total of 24kg (~53lbs) down. Lots of Love ❤️ from Germany 🇩🇪
But somehow it is both? Most worried about his health, and some are the ones who pushed him into this point. Nick himself continued even with problems, big problems with his health. So both if you don't count the people who's concern about him.
@@This-is-not-K Nikocado can simply shut off his Mukbanger career and refocus his channel content solely on his music background? Oh, no... he can't do that, heaven forbids he may break a rib just by propping his violin between his shoulders and double chin or merely lifting the weight of his bow. 🙄 Please, the loser does not have mental issues and is complete cognizant of his own actions. He is fully aware how to get himself out of the rut but clearly chose the path to his own demise.
Well, in a responsible society it is not the business of some random drama TH-camrs or viewers to express "concern" (really? ... I think you confused that with ENTERTAINMENT ...), but the public prosecutor who puts self-harming people (evidence given by Nikocado himself!) under psychiatric evaluation and ward. Hmm, I am going a little far with this, as we all know how you Americans think about your addicts: They deserve "it", am I right? But I am okay with that, I said "responsible society" not idiocracy!:)
Was super happy to hear about his weight loss, and then the last two minutes of the video played. This man must be absolutely miserable even if he says he doesn't care anymore
It's like all the positive comments - which he would scream about not having - was the fuel he needed to make us feel the most betrayed. I, myself, felt like such an idiot that he backtracked on his weight loss journey.
Nikocado is such a wild case of internet fame. I knew people in High School who knew about him and made fun of him around school, who hardly used the Internet or TH-cam on that level at all. It's just so bizarre to me

To gain 200 pounds onto such a lanky Ecto-endomorph body type in hardly five years is already a remarkably upsetting feat. The fact that he seemed already physically frail and somewhat off mentally, even before his descent into maddening gluttony and greed, doesn't help him at all. Although, 200 pounds in five years is pretty slow, from my viewpoint as a feeder. I knew and myself enabled women who went from slim or curvy to morbidly obese or even borderline super obese within hardly one year. Sometimes months... or _weeks._ 😮
He didn’t really destroy him. Nick still is making his videos. Still has his following. Also, Charlie was never trying to destroy him but was trying to plead with him to get help. And when he lost weight Charlie praised him.
Its actually really funny and pretty cool and all of the things in this video should happen more. More spectacle for capitalism and then maybe fuckocado whatevero can take a mukbang out of my asshole
Every drama and mukbang video he posts makes him hundreds to thousands of dollars. He probably wouldnt keep going if he wasnt making a load of money from doing so. Even the people who watch just to dislike it give him some ad revenue. It isn't making excuses to say that by and large, people engage a LOT with self destructive content. If his first mukbang had not gained the traction it did, he likely would have gone a different route.
Ultimately, that's exactly what it is. He was addicted to the attention that his Mukbang vids garnered, and refused to acknowledge that those behaviors would put him in the grave.
TH-cam comes from America Obesity is part of America's culture (Body Shaming etc..) You expect TH-cam to censor their own country when they're the reason of their own problem?
FR, Most of the time I see him mentioned somewhere it's "disgusting type of video" immediately followed by "Dude still alive?"... It's been like that for years now and just as relevant..
I remember seeining a video of him playing the violin. It was very bad, I can't remember if it was for some bit or if he was trying to insinuate that he lost his playing ability, but I saw very clear signs of an amazing player faking being bad. Despite his body, and despite his limited moving ability, his fingers looked like they were working off of complete muscle memory, and his arms moved with such intention. It was absolutely mindboggling to watch.
He just sold his soul sadly. A lot of people do it. He was tempted by the devil with fame, monetary gain and he took the bait. Creativity turned to greed and gluttony. Also what does this say about the world we live in where the majority prefer to watch someone destroy themselves with food and acting like a toddler than to watch creative content such as playing a musical instrument beautifully...
a majority of musicians don’t have very much success with it anyways regardless of how skilled they are, i’m sure he stopped making music content once he realized the mukbangs had more engagement
@@Veganarchy-Zetetic imagine an alternate universe where his violin videos blew up and he still went on to make psychotic videos, destroying the most expensive and rare instruments he can buy or something
Nikocado's clickbaiting injuries/disability outright PISSED me off as a legitimately disabled person. Edit: I didn't expect this comment to blow up the way it has. Thank you everyone for your support.🙏
i feel you bro and tbh i had respect for disabled persons like you and also it remind me of that disabled artist gets mocked on twitter/X until that said artist removed his account bcoz of it
That's the most embarrassing/pathetic insult I had ever heard (not for the target of the insult, but to the one insulting) Even a fart joke would be a much more insulting than insulting someone as "unfluffy"
You cannot help someone that doesn't want to help themselves. One day your friend could be normal, and then spiral into madness with no way of stopping them.
Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and He rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! And also, He doesn't want you to go to Hell, but He wants you to go to Heaven with Him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved! 1. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that He rose again from the dead 3 days later. 2. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins and Turn away from your sins. If you sin again after asking forgiveness of that sin, ask forgiveness again and try not to do it ever again. Jesus will forgive you! 3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for Him to be your Lord and Savior forever. 4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever. I'm Praying for you and you are loved (Romans 10:9-13)
when I'm on a diet, I love watching people eat big amount of food. that satisfied my urge to eating, especially when I see the mukbangers is getting full that makes my appetite gone. like mattstonie and erik the electric
@@ResyliciousWhen I was a diet (Calores in, calories out), the massive mukbang still did not appeal to me even when I was starving. I only liked the human healthy size portion stuff. Different people like different stuff.
I used to be 500 pounds (back in 2004), and I worked myself down to being 187 today. I definitely agree that skinny does not always mean super healthy, as at one point I was barely taking in 600 calories in a day and I made myself incredibly sick. It's been a heck of a battle for me, and I find people like Nick to be an insult. I'm sure a lot of his blaming his fans for his condition and the overly dramatic crying bouts are mainly for clicks and views, but those of us who have wrestled with an eating disorder can tell you just how miserable dealing with one can make your life. This feels like his making fun of us.
DUDE! That's incredible! Cheers to you and your journey to a healthy, strongly, well-balanced, and happy life. I hope you keep going strong! Don't give up! Best advice is eating LOTS of fruits, veggies, seeds, and nuts. Eating a rainbow is key! Keep going!! You can do it!!✊️🥹🫂
I was nearly 300lb. The health issues I had from that was bad. Just the issues I had with my heart scared the hell out of me. Im down to 215 now and feel a lot better. It's not perfect, but it's better
i was the opposite growing up, given the fact you were 500 pounds in 2004 i was still a kid so i assume you are older than me, but besides the point i was always skinny as hell growing up. even in high school when i began to eat a lot more i was always skinny and up until 2019 i was always around 105 pounds i was definitley unhealthily under weight for my age until a few years ago though i also was on the cross country team and track team so i ran off almost everything i ate now im a little overweight for my age and am starting a work out routine
Congrats on your weight loss naturally, but just think your example of "skinny does not always mean super healthy" is sort of misplaced, in a way. Like it sounds like you were going through a really extreme diet to help with the weight loss and the 600 calories would be literally around triple *_less than_* what is recommended for a balanced/healthy weight loss routine and is outright dangerous so you being incredibly sick as a result would be pretty obvious, really. Not saying it to bash you (and congrats again) but just that it's not necessarily the best example to use of the "skinny doesn't mean healthy" argument.
@@idiot_city5444 he is, and he does joke about his own fame constantly, the thing is, there are few youtubers with huge followings that dont let the fame get to them, charlie knows he's famous, but he really doesnt try to abuse it at all, I actually get surprised constantly when he flat out responds to random users in his streams, considering how many people watch him.
@@idiot_city5444at least he doesn't try to sell off brand cookies at almost $30 a purchase and call people broke when they don't wanna pay for it Or peddle $20 stickers and get offended when people critisize him for overpricing his products Or try to get thousands of dollars from his audience by making empty promises and running when the money's in Trust me there's plenty more rich content creators to be critical of for shady crap. Charlie might be rich but at least he's not obsessed with keeping his wealth or making it bigger. (Sorry if this comment comes off as rude, I'm just salty atm, and there's plenty of other creators to be skeptical of)
there's something horrifying of Nikocado just saying he's "fluffy" and "lightly overweight" while he's just bed ridden with how fat he is. I hope he gets the help he needs
I think that might just be his character. He seems to be dialling up his feelings and outrage, exaggerating some of his health concerns that might have existed before his weight gain and more. He is clearly manipulative in that aspect. Playing his audience’s feelings like an accomplished fiddler. Pun very much intended. He seems like Boogie in that aspect. I wonder if he still is able to play and if that even matters to him anymore. That said, it’s still sad.
I don’t understand the whole muckbang thing. As a heavy person, it actually distresses me to watch clips of people who do this. The way Charlie discussed Nicks journey and his blaming his YT viewers was pretty respectful. At the end of the day, Charlie’s comments mirrored much of Nicks viewers comments. I truly hope Nick has started their journey towards a healthier lifestyle, not just his eating and physical health but also his emotional health.
I weigh about 70lbs and can't eat more food than can fit in my palm over a 6-hour period due to a paralyzed stomach. Sometimes watching people just absolutely go at some big portions is just fun, it's something I'll never get to experience again! But not to this degree, not 6 full KFC family meals. I usually watch sushi/seafood mukbangs, personally, and reminisce about the time in my life I could get my money's worth at a Chinese buffet 😂 Next time you get a chance to eat an entire burger or a plate of spaghetti, savour it.
The thing is, when it first started in South Korea, it was actually pretty wholesome. The main point was having a company during meals if you lived alone and missed some company or was lonely in general. The food portions were also pretty average and nothing crazy like today. It was actually when it got big in western countries especially in the US, that it became over the top with people valuing shock, drama, massive portions etc. There are probably still creators who do these videos in "the original way", but this extreme version of it is unfortunately more visible.
I think it's so that people don't feel as guilty and shameful about their own bad eating habits when they see others eating much larger and unhealthier portions than they are. I think that maybe the mentality of, "at least I'm not as bad as that person" kicks in and drives people into wanting to keep watching, that would only be for those people though, most others its probably just the shock value of it....Maybe, idk about anything, that's just my guess when I take into account human cliches. Theres also the 3 most clicked content mindsets that could be the reasoning, if a video makes a viewer think any of these then usually they'll click: *"Wtf is going on in this video?" (shock factor) *"Will the people in the video be able to complete this seemingly impossible task?" (completion/success or fail factor) *I think the third one was "can I watch this in the background while I do something else like the dishes or laundry". Might be wrong though, can't remember off the top of my head
Apparently early mukbang days used to be just people streaming and eating a moderate amount while talking to the viewers. Now it has become some kind of show where food is the main focus or smth
From what ive heard, it started as just people eating dinner or whatever on webcam chat with friends or family so they didnt have to eat alone. Then people started doing in videos or livestreams for the same reason...and now we're here
As someone who knows something about mukbang, mukbang means eating show but that doesn't necessarily mean you have to eat a lot. But those youtubers who does mukbang for a living: 1. They only film once or twice a week. 2. They do exercise. 3. They follow strict diet when not doing mukbang to maintain their body, and 4. They do fasting.
Imagine coming home from 8-10 hours work and going "oh boy I can't wait to watch an obese guy shove 10 kg of food into his mouth" Do people truly have NOTHING else to do with their free time? Spend it with family, friends, watch something meaningful like good movies or play some good videogames... I have absolutely no idea how anybody can choose to spend their limited time on earth consistently watching mukbang vids over doing anything else.
I genuinely believe Nicocado is just playing a character that unfortunately relies on him gaining weight. I think he may also struggle with the food addiction that he's given himself. I've seen a few video clips where he breaks character, showing that he knows what he's doing and causes controversies because it gives him views (aka money). It's still sad that he gave up his health for money but his overacting always feels obviously fake.
I also think he’s playing a character and that he knows what he’s doing. The problem is if that’s true, he must also know this can’t go forever. Hell, he probably can’t keep this up for another two years even.
I think he plays it up. His mood shifts to tantrum-territory but instead of making the choice to rein in himself, he just lets go and indulges in his extreme moods. He could control them, but chooses. Because I'm 100% convinced his content is not just catering to people with a feeder fetish but also those with an adult-baby kink.
"I genuinely believe Nicocado is just playing a character" Then you are genuinely naïve. There are people who believe the same about Boogie and DSP, too. If that's a "character". Then the dedication is so far as to fool even themselves.
I was actually happy to hear that he was doing better at the end… but the actual ending of him saying he gained all his weight back and didn’t care anymore was genuinely tragic and made me upset.
As a side note, 9:31 is the second time so far in this video that Charlie has been featured with blue eyes instead of the brown eyes that he actually has. What the fuck?!
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Charlie is just too majestic man, so majestic his eyes can change colour, his voice also somehow got reverb outta nowhere in a video. He also looks quite alot like Jesus AND is fucking ripped. My guy is too majestic.
I assume that a “mukbang” was originally meant to be a storytelling session, while also eating a meal. I’m not sure how it started but I’m pretty confident that it didn’t start as an excuse for sickening displays of gluttony and self destruction for profit, which is what it became for a lot of people. Another innocent thing completely perverted and twisted into something heinous and disgusting.
You are somewhat correct; "Mukbang" originated in Korea iirc. It was a sort of social form of content creation where an individual would have lunch/dinner and talk about stuff, crack jokes, etc. It was one of those; "Fill a social interaction" type videos where you eat dinner with them and listen to them to sort of have this nice interaction. It wasn't super massive but it had it's audience and there was clearly a benefit from it. It was later when other content creators grabbed a hold of it and took it to a gluttonous, controversial level. You can even kind of pinpoint a sort of timeline where the transition occurred. Nowadays I doubt you'll find the old, smaller, casual variant that feels more like a relaxing dinner VLog to enjoy.
@@MrSolomonGaming I remember watching one with this really beautiful russian girl, it was a normal meal, it was cozy and wholesome and looking back it almost felt like going on a date with her lmao and now I feel like Joaquin Phoenix in Her but really I just wanna feel like ME in her if you know what I mean
@@the_travelingbreezeI do not understand this generations hatred for capitalism. What do you suggest instead? Would you prefer a fascist or communist state? I think your anger is misplaced.
I agree with Nick, it’s Pizza Hut’s fault that I’m a pothead. They keep giving me paychecks, and I keep spending them on weed. I can’t believe this shit, they’re out of control.
how dare my job enabling me as a weed smoker by paying me money for my honest work and then i proceed to squander it... can't believe my boss would do this to me.. gonna write a formal complaint to him soon
I mean tbh the true argument would be that pizza hut would pay you more IF you smoked pot, you still have free will to chose but you are influenced to smoke it
Horrible analogy, Pizza Hut doesn't pay you for smoking weed, they pay you to work there. Nikocado Avocado gets more views hence more money when he does these mukbangs.
It's honestly sad just how hard you can tell Nikocado is desperately grasping/reaching in his emotional retorts. Instead of taking time to plan out what he's going to say he decides to just turn on the camera in the middle of a manic episode and fumble over an attempted retort.
It's obviously an act dude, the same Penguinz0 call it out about it (saying how dissapointed he is that Nikocado wouldn't break character to talk seriously never once).
Yeah it's a complete act. There wasn't one genuine word that came from his rant. That's what Charlie was talking about when he said he is essentially not an idiot, and that he's taken the fully rational part of his mind and locked it away in order to keep his dramatic persona going. It's so sad I wish he would speak genuinely in just ONE video before the day comes that we never get to hear from him again.
On the 1st January 2023, I weighed 177kg (about 390lb), which was the culmination of me spiralling both physically and mentally during the Pandemic, and led to me quitting my job after 10 years. I also was diagnosed with "potentially deadly sleep apnea", and my 12 year marriage was also on the rocks, and rightly so. I have since lost over 50kg as of this week, and I can attest to feeling much, much better both mentally and physically. I have a long way to go, but life is so much better at home and at work, and I can certainly state that being morbidly obese is friggin depressing, and you physically feel like shit all the time.
That is remarkable, that kind of progress takes serious dedication, and I am so happy for you. I hope things keep getting better for you, and I hope you're proud of the progress you have made!!
He can lose it any time he wants. You don't know the kind of discipline you have to have to play violin like he does, to be restricitve raw vegan like he was, one day he'll shock everyone and run off laughing with his millions into the sunset.
The last time I watched a video of him, it was quite sad. He was eating pizza and suddenly started crying, remembering the times he was often bullied in school
I don't think it was his plant diet, it was that he would only eat fruit, and mostly avocado, he wasn't getting what he needed in his day from just eating like 8 avocados a day. He went from one extreme (only eating fruit, and mostly one type of fruit) to another (only eating huge amounts of fat.)
yep. I call those types 'internet vegans'. they don't actually know anything about nutrition (often even saying we don't need protein) or whats in the food and proceed to fixate on one thing or another (Freely the bannana girl era) and often were very calorie deficient. it is all an excuse for their ED. vegan can be healthy but you've really got to balance what you're eating, b12 and iron deficiency can be found even in most omnivores and thats easy to get around.
i think so too he just has a very bad relationship with food either way and it's actually sad that his brain cannot grasp the idea of having a perfect balance
Yes. My sympathy for him is limited, because he threw away all empathy for animals when he became a mukbanger. He went from vegan for the sake of the animals to wasting as many animal lives as possible. F him. It's sad, but he's still a jerk. (Note that this is different from people who have never looked at the treatment of animals in our society, people who don't know, people who only know how to eat animal products in every meal. I don't have the same judgment of them. But someone who looked into it, successfully lived as a vegan [albeit an unhealthy fruitarian] for years and then turned to eating and wasting as many animal products as possible. Truly, F him.)
It's sad, but chances are that Nicocado will be in future textbooks as an accurately documented case study on the negative effects of social media and peer pressure on your body, mind, self- and public perception.
To be fair, if you let societal pressure you to gain weight and lose weight to that extreme effect, you need to see a therapist. If everything was caused by social media, I wouldn't be here.
He’s the boss you aren’t supposed to beat in the tutorial level because the devs made it so you cannot, meaning all dramatubers have given up before they even started.
I struggle to even watch short clips of nikocado. His personality is disgusting and his voice is grating. He does EVERYTHING for views. He amplifies the worst part of himself and fucks over everyone including himself for money and attention. Honestly I struggle to feel bad for a person getting everything they want. He wants views, money, and attention and he gets it. He doesn’t care about the well-being of himself or others so he doesn’t treat anyone well. He gets everything he wants and knows the risks that come along with it. I think I’m far more upset with his audience. Millions of people being entertained by and encouraging a greedy person killing themselves with their own greed. It’s sick that SO many people consider this entertainment. We need to do better as a society.
I've never realized just how crazy Nikocado's food consumption was. I thought he just bought a ton of food for the thumbnail, but when Charlie said he finishes everything I was shocked. I don't think I could consume that much in one sitting without throwing up.
I am underweight. My sister is overweight. Both of us are unhealthy and aim to be better without putting ourselves down, but neither of us would ever act like this man... He had at some point twisted his self-destruction into profit and shifted the blame onto outsiders so hard that I'm sure he's 100% convinced himself that nothing is ever his fault. His growing paranoia and anger means that he's rotted himself mentally, rather than just physically, and the more he interacts with the internet the worse he seems to become out of spite and a need for money and attention. It's honestly been too sad to look at, so I try to avoid him wherever I see him pop up, even in memes, but I do hold an innocent little hope that one day he can pull or be pulled out of the dangerous mental spiral he's allowed himself to fall into so deeply. It's not just about his looks or physical health, it's the toxic behaviour that he has had towards it and towards others because of it. He, at his worst, is the pinnacle of what me and my sis would never want to become during our own health journeys. The manipulative bouts of despair and lashing out at everyone is frightening.
That Charlie/Penguin guy does seem like a good caring person. I had just recently learned who Nickacado was after hearing his name mentioned in another video. He does truly seem to be mentally unstable. I hope he receives the help he needs.
That's just it though he's blending issues to build tension the machine he constantly shows or mentions is a CPAP he has sleep apnea during the night he will fall asleep on his back and he will slowly begin to breathe less and less until he will inhale and just stop younger people will almost always wake up within seconds but older people or people with disabilities sometimes can't but that machine will pump oxygen gently and slowly through his airway preventing it's from closing he keeps it around like a oxygen tank then after you're awake you have to remove the tubes and soak them in a antibacterial soap for a long time and then put them though a rinse cycle in the dishwasher if you don't properly do this bacteria forms and then you'll immediately inhale it straight to your lungs causing popcorn lung or pneumonia so with context clues his ribs are because of his lung infections and violently coughing all day everyday will crack ribs plus if the infection spreads he may develop a blodd infection causing sepsis which leads to septic shock none of them are fun ways to go but instead of just cleaning his tubes better he blames viewers most likely for sympathy every thing he pilee on his viewers is really his fault I mean sleep apnea is genetic but eating and now his nasty cough and broken ribs were his

Charlie is a good and compassionate man. He also says it like it is. Which a lot of people can’t handle. He’s also not afraid to point out bad behavior, which should be helpful for all of us. It’s definitely helped me.
This is just sad. I used to watch Nick's violin videos, he is insanely talented and seeing the path he chose to take is so sad. This can't be who he really is, everything he does is so dramatic and over the top, he wasn't like that before. I remember the drama he got into with Trisha Paytas years ago, and he was so calm and logical and handled that situation so well, he was so likeable and it really drew you in. I don’t know what happened to him, but he's almost become a caricature of himself now, it's strange. Charlie wasn't even saying that he's bad because he's fat, he's saying it's not healthy or safe to gain 200 pounds within a few years and it's not okay that people watch and encourage the unhealthy behavior, he's actually concerned about him. I really hope Nick gets some help.
@ayeshak6822 I'm fully convinced mental illness plays a part in this, though. Of course money, but I just don't think that's all there is to it. His behavior is bizarre at best, highly concerning and dangerous to himself at worst.
@@ayeshak6822 I've seen a lot of people throw their morals under the bus and the consideration of other people out the window for money, but never have I ever seen before someone so masochistic and willing to humiliate/destroy themselves in front of millions in order to get money. I don't even know how I would live with myself if I was in Nick's shoes. I find it a little cynical (though reasonable) to say Nick is only doing this to himself for the money, but it really is impossible to know why Nick is doing this.
@@1800PAlN It's like some kind of surreal deviant circus act, I can't even imagine a mentally healthy person choosing that path, even for money. It's tempting to blame his viewers... and I would contend that they are also deviant and perverse for wanting to watch such content... but it's absurd for him not to put the blame squarely on himself. I think he knows it, and his whole personality is an act done for more views, his faux outrage at that Penguin dude included. He just can't resist the allure of the money and the fame/notoriety.
I am absolutely terrified of turning out like Nikocado. I'm 360 after months of dieting. I am scared out of my mind of being confined to a bed or needing round the clock care just to put my socks on or go to the bathroom. The idea of my body being a prison like that haunts me.
Good. It sucks, but if that's what it takes for you to motivate yourself in the, frankly lifelong struggle to lose weight and be healthy, more power to you. Just remember it's a marathon not a sprint. Best of luck to you.
Keep up the good work of months of dieting, even during those rotten plateaus, even when u fall hard off the wagon. That’s what the next hour is for. Don’t “wait until tomorrrow” to get back on. Do it the second you realize you don’t like that feeling. Your failure to stay on doesn’t matter, your decision to get back on does. You can do it, you’re worth it, you deserve to feel good and you will with every little success. And don’t forget to mentally celebrate each one. When I could tighten my belt a bit, I called it “a belt loop victory” and throw a little party in my head. Create your own pat on the back and soon other people will be joining you. Just remb your self-congrats is and always will be the most important one. 🩵
In addition to the other advice here, I wanted to say - don't beat yourself up or let guilt demoralize you if you stumble in your routine. Yes, get back on the wagon asap, but remember that you've only failed if you let yourself totally give up. You'll only bring yourself closer to that result if you mentally flay yourself for fucking up and missing a workout or eating badly for a meal. Instead, make sure to reward your successes much more than you punish your mistakes.
I've been "researching" the Nikocado Avocado "phenomenon" for quite some time, as I also kinda battled with unhealthy eating, until I realized that I'm destroying my body. Various documentaries about this guy actually inspired me to start losing weight. Unhealthy food became somewhat like a drug for me. I can't imagine how some numbers on a screen under the form of likes, views or subscribers would further fuel a person's determination to continue doing something like this. Still a bit sad for him. I still hope he'll turn around and start a weight loss journey before it's too late.
It's crazy. He blamed a plant based diet saying he wasn't healthy before... And I was like OK maybe he didn't have variety or maybe it just wasn't for him. We're all different. And then he said "orange juice diet". Like wtf?? OJ isn't very healthy at all. It's pure sugar. Especially if it's store bought and has no fiber in it.
@@chibifirestorm I think you missed the point the commenter wanted to make with "this man has never had a healthy relationship with food." He already had an unhealthy relationship with food before starting his first TH-cam channel. He was severely underweight and following some extreme version of "veganism" which resulted in deficiencies in essential nutrients such as iron and B12. That does not mean, however, that attention and money are not multiplying the damage, both physical and mental, of his underlying mental health problems.
I love how in all of these exposés, the primary takeaways are "Don't mess with Penguinz0", "Do not do something so bad you get covered by Penguinz0", and "If you are fighting with Penguinz0, do not continue to fight" Charlie is just a force to reckon with, all while being a model of mental discipline
I disagree with all of your statements. It's people like you that have given charlie his power. Charlie is just an observationalist, who is under weight. His cool, calm, and collectedness, is just an act. He is just as much of a manipulative sack as Nicko. The difference is you dick ride Charlie.
My hopes is to actually do something so good to get covered by Penguinz0. At some point, I wanted to get out there and scream into the void of twitter, daring him to play my game's free demo and offer his constructive feedback on it as well as determine if he'd buy the game when its done if its on itch.😅
the fact that you have other youtubers like mrballen and dragonheartanimations commenting and worrying about nick is kinda wholesome in a way and kinda shows that most the youtube community worries and is there for each other
You actually can, in many european coutries you used to see fat people live long lives, with no more or less health issues than average. Things started to go bad when more and more processed junk food entered the daily diet...
@@roulpops2699 which european countries, specifically? and what era? bc most rarely had obese people back in the day. and healthy obese is a myth. there’s no such thing. a fat person can barely physically move (as evident by his healthy panting)) so they can’t really work out, and that’s crucial to be healthy, and they’re prone to lots of diseases. that’s like saying a smoker is healthy just bc they haven’t gotten lung cancer yet. or that an alcoholic is healthy just bc their liver still works. except it’s worse than both those examples. healthily obese is a tiktok myth
obese and healthy should have an asterisk, given water weight is a real thing and actually affects people. I have water weight, i'm not obese or anything, but it does feel like shit. I eat super healthy, 90%+ of my meals homemade and/or vegan. I actually was once obese, even though I ate super healthy, and it only was until a hospital visit for a surgery where they found that they could inject stuff into me to make me piss more, and ended up going from obese to slightly underweight in about five days, taking a piss every hour or two. I lost 50+ pounds (~20kg) of weight. It doesn't actually effect a ton of people though, so it is completely understandable to not take that into consideration. Have a great day.
Damn. I had such high hopes for him, he worked so hard. I am trying to lose weight currently but to see him return after losing 80 pounds is absolutely heart wrenching. There are people who would do anything to lose 80 pounds, but to him, he would rather go back to eating the most nasty food, and continue to shave years off of his lifespan. It is sad to say, but he has likely confirmed his early death.
He never lost 89 lbs. The famous “89 el bees” is an Amberlynn Reid reference. Nik has been trolling Amberlynn for years. I’m reality, he probably lost 20-30 lbs.
This man had reawakened my deep underlining fear of gluttony. I can’t remember exactly why I have it but I remember it starting with Tim Burtons “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and the character Augustus. So I tried watching Muk Bang but couldn’t. And this man makes the scariest out of all of them of just eating an unhealthy amount of food and basically eating himself to death. So yeah. When it showed longer clips of his videos, I had to look away. It is weird but I can’t control this panicky feeling.
Fears are often past life "lessons" to not repeat things. Fear of heights - previous life maybe pushed off a cliff. Claustrophobic - previous life maybe buried alive. Fear of a specific animal- maybe attacked in a previous life. Fears are never irrational but rather so strong that your soul never wants to experience that type of event again. Gluttony is bad for mental & physical health so having a strong avoidance is a great thing.
its completely understandable, i have been scared of basically eating to death myself, and while i still DO eat unhealthy food, i try to limit my proportions so i don't become a living exercise ball
So do I, gosh it feels good hearing someone else with a similar experience. For me, it was that scene in Matilda where the teachers forced a little boy to eat an entire chocolate cake until he was sick. That, with some other factors (seeing family members on both sides of the disordered eating spectrum) has lit a fire in me to keep a balanced diet and make sure I exercise. But I have a really hard time looking at certain foods or watching people eat at all. Something that helped me with my eating related panic is learning how to cook and bake a many kinds of foods. Knowing I made the food makes me feel good about watching it be enjoyed, and overrides my anxiety.
9:58 the fact that it actually pains him to breath is genuinely scary and concerning and he goes onto say its our fault when people in the comments are telling him to stop
No it's literally his genetic that weird mask with the tubes on each side is called a CPAP machine he has sleep apnea while he sleeps on his back he will breathe slowly to the point his sinuses will actually seal shut which causes him to hold his breath for a long time eventually your body will react with convulsions as a fight or flight reaction he then wakes up gasping for air basically having choked on his own sinuses that noce attachment will gently and slowly pump oxygen into his airway stopping the suffocating part sadly though sometimes people don't wake up and then can actually die cleaning them is very important if bacteria forms in the tubes and you then inhale them that can cause pneumonia or popcorn lung which explains the huge violent cough he has his tubes weren't cleaned enough or they weren't properly sanitized sleep apnea is not from food or weight gain it's a underdeveloped sinus cavity
STEPHANIE FREAKING SOO, i completely forgot about this whole thing, ive been watching her TH-cam videos recently and i could figure out why she looked so familiar
I've only randomly seen bits and pieces of Charlie's content here and there. I didn't realize he's a unicorn. A TH-camr with a very large following who still possesses a soul and is a legitimate decent person. I'm going to have to start checking his channel out more regularly
If you haven’t found it already, and true crime/conspiracy/cryptids sounds like a genre you’d be interested in, Charlie, Wendigoon/Isaiah (who is just as much a unicorn as Charlie, though I don’t think he’s as big), and another guy I don’t know much about (but seems to slot into their dynamic really well) have a podcast on here called “The Red Thread” on the “The Official Podcast” TH-cam channel. That genre, alongside religion and general horror media, is also just Wendigoon’s whole brand.
Charlie is a genuine, honest and kind guy. Talks a lot of sense. It’s a shame that avocado didn’t see this & instead went for the dramatic overkill of playing the victim.
niko's channel is a perfect distillation of the biggest problem with youtube channels--audience capture. giving people what they want above all else. a vicious cycle that eventually destroys you. turns you into a shell of your former self. people like tim pool, dave rubin, etc also are like this. the ultimate example in choosing everything except being true to yourself and caring only about money
And there's even people that sort of created a persona before they realised and changed themselves after seeing the aftermath. A good example is Jacksepticeye (Sean) and Markiplier. It can destroy you mentally and even outside of youtube it can be a problem.
Not necessarily money - "famous" - fame is vicious for many people. The same way he ate and never felt fulfilled, it happens with fame too. Never enough, never good enough, never filling the hole in the soul. Sux to see
@@BarretKruseI have worked with a number of models and can promise you beauty is identical to that! I remember asking one girl if she could be the second most beautiful girl in the world, would she finally be happy? And she said no.
How I missed this channel for so long. Found it the other day.. Binged them all. Cool to see a face with the voice.. Keep up the good work. One thing I like about this channel, since the beginning till today. Not a lot has changed, it's the same basic yet informative concept despite the channel growth.
Nikocado is proof that people cave under peer pressure and the views and monetization also just add fuel to the fire, Its so sad to watch him hurt his body like that and Charlie is a great dude for sharing a calm and expansive outlook, I really hope Nikocado doesn't pass away he seems like a genuinely cool dude that is battling a rough inner battle. Like Penguin said its just hard to watch, I used to be 300+lbs but after nearly a decade of proper dieting and eating patterns I am down to a still high but manageable 189lb and 5' 11''. I still suffer from pains but taking supplements soon and had a ton of dental work done and reclaiming my life one small step at a time. Its never easy to undo such damage and I honestly Wish Nikocado the best and hope he changes I side with Penguin. No one should endorse or condone when its in such repetition as penguin stated there are successful Mukbang's.
TRO did a good vid on nikocado that showed even when he was in the vegan community he wasn't the nicest guy, mainly just abusive to his friends and overall toxicity
Nikocado needs a purge. And I really like what Penguinz0 said about how Matt Stonie will eat like this once a month or so (with daily exercise) but Nick eats like that practically every day. I also eat fast food and admittedly I don't have the best diet but I get exercise and I'm still skinny. It's just important to balance things out and not let any addictions control your life. Nick needs to recognize he has a problem.
Honestly, compared to 300+ lbs, a BMI of ~26 is great! Could losing more weight be better? Sure. Thanks for being an inspiration to others and good luck on whatever your remaining weight goals are.
As a wise man once said “A block of iron is worth $5, made into a horseshoe is worth $15 made into a ring is worth $5000 made into balance springs for watches it’s $35000. Your worth is determined by what you are able to make of yourself”
Addiction comes in many forms and I have enough life experience to recognize it when I see it. I really hope Nik ends up sorting himself out. His situation makes me more sad than anything else. He was (and still very well could be) a talented musician, but clout brainrot is literally derailing his life.
Funny he could've fixed the vegan problem with a good steak once a week. Like literally all those deficiencies gone without any weight gain. Yet he acts like he'd die if he wasn't gorging himself on a daily basis
There are also plenty of vegies that give vitamin b's as well as organic vegan based multivitamins. It sounds to me like he didnt even try. I have Vitamin b and d deficiencies or rather to say i work at night so i dont get much sunlight and despite eating salmon and vegies that contain vitamin b's i still need a supplement to get to levels that help my body.
I concur. I ate vegan for years, but simply supplemented properly, ate a lot of varied nutritious food, I was fine, did blood work and everything and it always came back consistently solid. even did weight lifting and got in decent shape while eating vegan. I plan to return to veganism sometime in the future. Idiots who do it completely wrong give it a bad name@@SuperRedNovaDragon
@Quad777888999 there a distinction between a health vegan and a moral vegan. He was a health vegan so there wouldn't have been a problem with having meat on occasion for health reasons. I mean clearly the guy doesn't think it's morally wrong to eat animals lol
I really didnt expect gabriel references here, but hey, aint complaining. Just like nicocado, he was also at his peak in his beginning times@@logandominguez1100
He's either one of the most devoted actors to his field, or he is genuinely like this. I think I saw an interview where he accidentally 'broke character', but I honestly believe that this persona is real.
When I was recovering from an ED I went so hard into the other end of the spectrum because I was angry at all the restricting and not allowing myself certain foods. I gained so much weight and fluctuated a lot in my eating habits. It was one of the worst times of my life but I think it was crucial to my recovery. I am at an average weight for my height now. Its honestly sad to see Nick hurting himself and even more sad that its a source of income (I would imagine).
Just listening to Nick talk, you can tell hes narcissistic, and throws tantrums worse than any child. I feel sorry for everyone who's had contact with him. I hope he wakes up one day and finally realizes what hes doing.
mukbangs are some of the most disgusting things i've ever had the displeasure of seeing. I cannot fathom why anyone would want to watch a couple of fat bitches slurp and slop into the camera while eating greasy food while they talk about nothing and just make disgusting eating noises into the microphone.
I feel like at this point Nikocado’s haters care more for his health and well being than his actual, “fans.”
yeah the enablers are crazy
obviouso amigo
True
It seems that way, yeah.
It's totally truth. I hate to look at how dude ruins his health. His fans just allow for it to happen and push him further.
The fact that he says "I was so underweight, you can see my bones!" but doesn't acknowledge that he went into the complete other side of the spectrum is horrible. The fact that you were unhealthy when you were skinny does not mean you are healthier right now
And nikocado avocado says he's "a bit fluffy." Like bro that's not fluffy that's obese at absolute best
@@Buffgamer89it is supremely morbidly obese at the absolute best
@iminsanestfu Its a joke, it's a part of his character, like the "it's just water weight" and "I identify as family" bits.
When he brought up that one of his teeth rotted out, all I could think of was "I see you were as good at dental hygen as you are with dieting".
Is it true he faked his weight loss for clout tho? Cuz im confused and pissed people still believe on that
To be extremely honest... I completely forgot that Nikocado Avocado existed...
You’re not alone
Yea me too
Same.
Bro I just sit my ass all day on the internet and didn't seen a video whit him
I forgor about him too my brother
he is back so it will take longer to forget him now.@@Sammy482-GG
The dude gained 200 lbs and said, "i gained a little weight." No man, you gained my actual weight!
Same.
He gained nearly twice my weight (I am a very short person, lol). That’s a little sad, honestly.
That's more than I weigh and I'm a cripple. I barely weight 135 lbs. and it's not like I have some amazing diet. : /
Double it but keep it
im considerd morbidly obease at 250 pounds, dude is 100 pounds heavier
nikocado's channel is a perfect example of why a balanced diet is the key to being healthy. he has tried both extremes and both let him to horrible health.
Nicokado Avocado is simply a barely closeted fat fetishist.
I know plenty of women like him, female influencers and female TH-camrs included... as a matter-of-fact, *I was their feeder.*
Edit: He really has a bad reputation within both OnlyFans and the online Fat Admirer community. Nearly ruined my venture into the online feederism game, back to my OF subscriber days.
Second Edit: Btw, this morbidly super obese TH-camr on Niko's left at the 14:45 mark is a widely popular USSBBW feedee model on the adult industry. Google up her name. Nikocado barely hid his connections to the gargantuan underbelly of the fat fetishism demimonde (no pun intended) .

Edit: This aged like milk.
Save*

* Avocado

Yeah, even though the ending is sad, the fact he posted a video to applaud him when he was making healthier choices and seemingly doing better truly warmed my heart. It is quite obvious that Charlie just wants people to not be a bad influence on others and educate people who need it on how to be critical thinkers who try to make the world a better place - or at least to not add toxicity to it. He is not about hating people but about hating certain behavior. And the amount of effort he put into setting things straight and also showing the good things of his 'subject' should make it very clear that he cares about people more than anything.
I honestly owe Nikocado a bit for my current health. I tuned into one of his video and watched a bit and realized that I was eating pretty similar portions. That realization and a few other factors has led me down a far healither path.
That's amazing that you learned something about yourself from him. I can't stand the guy but i get it.
Proud of you❤ good work
@@Elliot-f6x Sometimes it takes an outside perspective of your own habits to really "get" it.
Good shit. Keep moving forward. It takes a genuine person to act on something like that.
I hope you get healthier soon! I know how it feels to realise you’re eating too much and not realising until you see things like this
I feel like Charlie's favorite quote of all time is:
"Never talk to someone stupid, because they will beat you down to their level then beat you with experience."
And he most definitely ain’t lying
That's a Mark Twain quote if anyone was wondering like I was.
@@d_ryosuke honestly thanks for the info. I searched that quote up lake a few months before posting this comment. So I just put the first thing that came to my mind that made since.
Charlie’s favorite quote of all time is:
“Never talk to someone stupid, because they will beat you down to their level then beat you with experience.”
Wow, so you ‘can’ make that statement without saying, “I feel like,” was just curious….

Nikocado was the reason I started my weight los. I know how I DON'T want to end up like.
Lost 17kg (37.48 lbs) in the past 6 months.
Edit (3weeks later): Now a total of 20kg (44lbs~). I'm still going.
Edit 2: I really appreciate all the kind words of everyone. Whoever is also going for weightlos: YOU CAN DO IT. Got another 4kg (~9lbs) down. Total of 24kg (~53lbs) down.
Lots of Love ❤️ from Germany 🇩🇪
Nice! Good for you dude
awesome shit right here!
Keep up the good work!
keep up my dude
I was like "20 KILOS!?!?!?!?!? I'M CALLING THE FUCKING POLIC-" until i realized that's what your weight loss was, and not your current weight. 🤦
I also love how he acted like an absolute victim when 1000s of people expressed concern about him. Insanity
But somehow it is both? Most worried about his health, and some are the ones who pushed him into this point. Nick himself continued even with problems, big problems with his health. So both if you don't count the people who's concern about him.
@@This-is-not-K Nikocado can simply shut off his Mukbanger career and refocus his channel content solely on his music background? Oh, no... he can't do that, heaven forbids he may break a rib just by propping his violin between his shoulders and double chin or merely lifting the weight of his bow. 🙄 Please, the loser does not have mental issues and is complete cognizant of his own actions. He is fully aware how to get himself out of the rut but clearly chose the path to his own demise.
@@mistress9sama Worst armchair psychology I've seen on TH-cam I think and there is plenty to go around. Congratz.
Well, in a responsible society it is not the business of some random drama TH-camrs or viewers to express "concern" (really? ... I think you confused that with ENTERTAINMENT ...), but the public prosecutor who puts self-harming people (evidence given by Nikocado himself!) under psychiatric evaluation and ward.
Hmm, I am going a little far with this, as we all know how you Americans think about your addicts: They deserve "it", am I right?
But I am okay with that, I said "responsible society" not idiocracy!:)
@@mistress9samaI mean, he tried but he lost his skill.
Was super happy to hear about his weight loss, and then the last two minutes of the video played. This man must be absolutely miserable even if he says he doesn't care anymore

@@MrWolfSnack Man so he went all out lost 90 pounds just for charlie?

It's like all the positive comments - which he would scream about not having - was the fuel he needed to make us feel the most betrayed. I, myself, felt like such an idiot that he backtracked on his weight loss journey.
He gained it all back though so it was pointless.

"I wasn't healthy when I was thin, therefore I eat myself to death" sound logic there buddy. truly sad to see.

To gain 200 pounds onto such a lanky Ecto-endomorph body type in hardly five years is already a remarkably upsetting feat. The fact that he seemed already physically frail and somewhat off mentally, even before his descent into maddening gluttony and greed, doesn't help him at all.
Although, 200 pounds in five years is pretty slow, from my viewpoint as a feeder. I knew and myself enabled women who went from slim or curvy to morbidly obese or even borderline super obese within hardly one year. Sometimes months... or _weeks._ 😮

He didn’t really destroy him. Nick still is making his videos. Still has his following. Also, Charlie was never trying to destroy him but was trying to plead with him to get help. And when he lost weight Charlie praised him.
& yet i bet nickyboy didnt see the praise like that sadly :(
his violin was amazing!! :(
I agree. The content of this video is okay, but the title is clickbait-y.
This comment aged well
What a sad life... It's like watching an addict make excuses over and over for bad behavior and ultimately bad decisions.
Its actually really funny and pretty cool and all of the things in this video should happen more. More spectacle for capitalism and then maybe fuckocado whatevero can take a mukbang out of my asshole
Every drama and mukbang video he posts makes him hundreds to thousands of dollars. He probably wouldnt keep going if he wasnt making a load of money from doing so. Even the people who watch just to dislike it give him some ad revenue.
It isn't making excuses to say that by and large, people engage a LOT with self destructive content. If his first mukbang had not gained the traction it did, he likely would have gone a different route.
It IS watching an addict doing that
Ultimately, that's exactly what it is. He was addicted to the attention that his Mukbang vids garnered, and refused to acknowledge that those behaviors would put him in the grave.
well it is addiction, addicts has that pride, its natural defense mechanism of them until they destroy themselves and then its the End

More worried about the degeneracy of society of which he is an example.
Nope. I feel no sympathy for him at all. He's a scumbag.
FR, Most of the time I see him mentioned somewhere it's "disgusting type of video" immediately followed by "Dude still alive?"...
It's been like that for years now and just as relevant..
No matter how many times I see it, watching Nikocado play the violin legitimately beautifully feels like slipping into another dimension
Its so sad that he was captured by the demon of gluttony
I remember seeining a video of him playing the violin. It was very bad, I can't remember if it was for some bit or if he was trying to insinuate that he lost his playing ability, but I saw very clear signs of an amazing player faking being bad. Despite his body, and despite his limited moving ability, his fingers looked like they were working off of complete muscle memory, and his arms moved with such intention. It was absolutely mindboggling to watch.
He just sold his soul sadly. A lot of people do it. He was tempted by the devil with fame, monetary gain and he took the bait. Creativity turned to greed and gluttony.
Also what does this say about the world we live in where the majority prefer to watch someone destroy themselves with food and acting like a toddler than to watch creative content such as playing a musical instrument beautifully...
a majority of musicians don’t have very much success with it anyways regardless of how skilled they are, i’m sure he stopped making music content once he realized the mukbangs had more engagement

You cannot help someone that doesn't want to help themselves. One day your friend could be normal, and then spiral into madness with no way of stopping them.
Don’t try to help a lost cause
Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and He rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless!
And also, He doesn't want you to go to Hell, but He wants you to go to Heaven with Him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved!
1. Believe that God sent His Son
(Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that He rose again from the dead 3 days later.
2. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins and Turn away from your sins. If you sin again after asking forgiveness of that sin, ask forgiveness again and try not to do it ever again. Jesus will forgive you!
3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for Him to be your Lord and Savior forever.
4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever.

when I'm on a diet, I love watching people eat big amount of food. that satisfied my urge to eating, especially when I see the mukbangers is getting full that makes my appetite gone. like mattstonie and erik the electric
Drink some water instead of losing braincells by watching people eat.@@Resylicious
honestly those types of videos should be banned until world hunger is resolved
i agree, im not sure about how the heck people enjoy that! im not going to judge though. people have their differences
@@ResyliciousWhen I was a diet (Calores in, calories out), the massive mukbang still did not appeal to me even when I was starving. I only liked the human healthy size portion stuff. Different people like different stuff.
Editing out words like “injections” with squeaky duck noises makes me feel like I’m losing my mind.
It's how "New Speak" starts.
I used to be 500 pounds (back in 2004), and I worked myself down to being 187 today. I definitely agree that skinny does not always mean super healthy, as at one point I was barely taking in 600 calories in a day and I made myself incredibly sick. It's been a heck of a battle for me, and I find people like Nick to be an insult. I'm sure a lot of his blaming his fans for his condition and the overly dramatic crying bouts are mainly for clicks and views, but those of us who have wrestled with an eating disorder can tell you just how miserable dealing with one can make your life. This feels like his making fun of us.
Congrats on your weight loss BTW, it's been a long fight, and hope you are able to enjoy yourself in your present state
DUDE! That's incredible! Cheers to you and your journey to a healthy, strongly, well-balanced, and happy life. I hope you keep going strong! Don't give up! Best advice is eating LOTS of fruits, veggies, seeds, and nuts. Eating a rainbow is key! Keep going!! You can do it!!✊️🥹🫂
I was nearly 300lb. The health issues I had from that was bad. Just the issues I had with my heart scared the hell out of me. Im down to 215 now and feel a lot better. It's not perfect, but it's better
i was the opposite growing up, given the fact you were 500 pounds in 2004 i was still a kid so i assume you are older than me, but besides the point
i was always skinny as hell growing up. even in high school when i began to eat a lot more i was always skinny and up until 2019 i was always around 105 pounds
i was definitley unhealthily under weight for my age until a few years ago
though i also was on the cross country team and track team so i ran off almost everything i ate
now im a little overweight for my age and am starting a work out routine
Congrats on your weight loss naturally, but just think your example of "skinny does not always mean super healthy" is sort of misplaced, in a way.
Like it sounds like you were going through a really extreme diet to help with the weight loss and the 600 calories would be literally around triple *_less than_* what is recommended for a balanced/healthy weight loss routine and is outright dangerous so you being incredibly sick as a result would be pretty obvious, really. Not saying it to bash you (and congrats again) but just that it's not necessarily the best example to use of the "skinny doesn't mean healthy" argument.
Charlie has probably the most reach on youtube but is very humble in how he uses it
For the most part. He's still absurdly rich and pretty ridiculous
@@idiot_city5444Don’t disagree but that doesn’t really change how he uses it
@@idiot_city5444 he is, and he does joke about his own fame constantly, the thing is, there are few youtubers with huge followings that dont let the fame get to them, charlie knows he's famous, but he really doesnt try to abuse it at all, I actually get surprised constantly when he flat out responds to random users in his streams, considering how many people watch him.
@@idiot_city5444at least he doesn't try to sell off brand cookies at almost $30 a purchase and call people broke when they don't wanna pay for it
Or peddle $20 stickers and get offended when people critisize him for overpricing his products
Or try to get thousands of dollars from his audience by making empty promises and running when the money's in
Trust me there's plenty more rich content creators to be critical of for shady crap. Charlie might be rich but at least he's not obsessed with keeping his wealth or making it bigger. (Sorry if this comment comes off as rude, I'm just salty atm, and there's plenty of other creators to be skeptical of)
@@idiot_city5444 he's not that rich
there's something horrifying of Nikocado just saying he's "fluffy" and "lightly overweight" while he's just bed ridden with how fat he is. I hope he gets the help he needs
Me a millionaire from being fat broski. I think he all good
I think that might just be his character. He seems to be dialling up his feelings and outrage, exaggerating some of his health concerns that might have existed before his weight gain and more.
He is clearly manipulative in that aspect. Playing his audience’s feelings like an accomplished fiddler. Pun very much intended. He seems like Boogie in that aspect. I wonder if he still is able to play and if that even matters to him anymore.
That said, it’s still sad.
Character or not he is playing into the controversy and fetishization. Especially with the disability aids in the thumbnails. 😥

I don’t understand the whole muckbang thing. As a heavy person, it actually distresses me to watch clips of people who do this. The way Charlie discussed Nicks journey and his blaming his YT viewers was pretty respectful. At the end of the day, Charlie’s comments mirrored much of Nicks viewers comments. I truly hope Nick has started their journey towards a healthier lifestyle, not just his eating and physical health but also his emotional health.
I weigh about 70lbs and can't eat more food than can fit in my palm over a 6-hour period due to a paralyzed stomach. Sometimes watching people just absolutely go at some big portions is just fun, it's something I'll never get to experience again! But not to this degree, not 6 full KFC family meals. I usually watch sushi/seafood mukbangs, personally, and reminisce about the time in my life I could get my money's worth at a Chinese buffet 😂 Next time you get a chance to eat an entire burger or a plate of spaghetti, savour it.
The thing is, when it first started in South Korea, it was actually pretty wholesome. The main point was having a company during meals if you lived alone and missed some company or was lonely in general. The food portions were also pretty average and nothing crazy like today. It was actually when it got big in western countries especially in the US, that it became over the top with people valuing shock, drama, massive portions etc. There are probably still creators who do these videos in "the original way", but this extreme version of it is unfortunately more visible.
I think it's so that people don't feel as guilty and shameful about their own bad eating habits when they see others eating much larger and unhealthier portions than they are. I think that maybe the mentality of, "at least I'm not as bad as that person" kicks in and drives people into wanting to keep watching, that would only be for those people though, most others its probably just the shock value of it....Maybe, idk about anything, that's just my guess when I take into account human cliches.
Theres also the 3 most clicked content mindsets that could be the reasoning, if a video makes a viewer think any of these then usually they'll click:
*"Wtf is going on in this video?" (shock factor)
*"Will the people in the video be able to complete this seemingly impossible task?" (completion/success or fail factor)
*I think the third one was "can I watch this in the background while I do something else like the dishes or laundry". Might be wrong though, can't remember off the top of my head
They literally activate Mt vomit reflex Every. Single. Time
Mukbang as a concept will never not sound insane to me.
Not just insane but violently cringe to watch or listen to. I had genuine stomach turning reactions to him doing it
Apparently early mukbang days used to be just people streaming and eating a moderate amount while talking to the viewers. Now it has become some kind of show where food is the main focus or smth
From what ive heard, it started as just people eating dinner or whatever on webcam chat with friends or family so they didnt have to eat alone. Then people started doing in videos or livestreams for the same reason...and now we're here
Just seeing it, it scares me. It's scary. I'd throw up if I ate that amount.
Everything Nik has done is insane and gross. It's like watching a big man-baby that is not even the most self aware.
I’ll never understand wanting to watch someone stuff their faces with food.
I love watching beardmeatsfood all he does is eat
You haven't seen my 2nd ex-wife eat then! ;)
As someone who knows something about mukbang, mukbang means eating show but that doesn't necessarily mean you have to eat a lot. But those youtubers who does mukbang for a living: 1. They only film once or twice a week. 2. They do exercise. 3. They follow strict diet when not doing mukbang to maintain their body, and 4. They do fasting.
People with strange habits, that’s who
Imagine coming home from 8-10 hours work and going "oh boy I can't wait to watch an obese guy shove 10 kg of food into his mouth"
Do people truly have NOTHING else to do with their free time? Spend it with family, friends, watch something meaningful like good movies or play some good videogames... I have absolutely no idea how anybody can choose to spend their limited time on earth consistently watching mukbang vids over doing anything else.
I genuinely believe Nicocado is just playing a character that unfortunately relies on him gaining weight. I think he may also struggle with the food addiction that he's given himself. I've seen a few video clips where he breaks character, showing that he knows what he's doing and causes controversies because it gives him views (aka money). It's still sad that he gave up his health for money but his overacting always feels obviously fake.
I also think he’s playing a character and that he knows what he’s doing. The problem is if that’s true, he must also know this can’t go forever. Hell, he probably can’t keep this up for another two years even.
I think he plays it up. His mood shifts to tantrum-territory but instead of making the choice to rein in himself, he just lets go and indulges in his extreme moods. He could control them, but chooses.
Because I'm 100% convinced his content is not just catering to people with a feeder fetish but also those with an adult-baby kink.
He's addicted to the attention (aka narcissistic supply), not the food
@@lasmirandadennsiewillja9435I think you’re right holy shit
"I genuinely believe Nicocado is just playing a character"
Then you are genuinely naïve. There are people who believe the same about Boogie and DSP, too. If that's a "character". Then the dedication is so far as to fool even themselves.

I assume that a “mukbang” was originally meant to be a storytelling session, while also eating a meal. I’m not sure how it started but I’m pretty confident that it didn’t start as an excuse for sickening displays of gluttony and self destruction for profit, which is what it became for a lot of people. Another innocent thing completely perverted and twisted into something heinous and disgusting.
You are somewhat correct;
"Mukbang" originated in Korea iirc. It was a sort of social form of content creation where an individual would have lunch/dinner and talk about stuff, crack jokes, etc. It was one of those; "Fill a social interaction" type videos where you eat dinner with them and listen to them to sort of have this nice interaction. It wasn't super massive but it had it's audience and there was clearly a benefit from it.
It was later when other content creators grabbed a hold of it and took it to a gluttonous, controversial level. You can even kind of pinpoint a sort of timeline where the transition occurred. Nowadays I doubt you'll find the old, smaller, casual variant that feels more like a relaxing dinner VLog to enjoy.
@@MrSolomonGaming yep
yeah.. i used to like watching mukbangs because it just gives you some companionship during meals but now its becoming more and more warped-
There are still tons of non-gluttonous eating ASMR channels out there that post frequently or even daily.
@@MrSolomonGaming I remember watching one with this really beautiful russian girl, it was a normal meal, it was cozy and wholesome and looking back it almost felt like going on a date with her lmao and now I feel like Joaquin Phoenix in Her but really I just wanna feel like ME in her if you know what I mean

I agree with Nick, it’s Pizza Hut’s fault that I’m a pothead. They keep giving me paychecks, and I keep spending them on weed. I can’t believe this shit, they’re out of control.
Exactly!
how dare my job enabling me as a weed smoker by paying me money for my honest work and then i proceed to squander it... can't believe my boss would do this to me.. gonna write a formal complaint to him soon
Omg you're so right! can't believe I never realized it was my job this whole time!!
I mean tbh the true argument would be that pizza hut would pay you more IF you smoked pot, you still have free will to chose but you are influenced to smoke it
Horrible analogy, Pizza Hut doesn't pay you for smoking weed, they pay you to work there.
Nikocado Avocado gets more views hence more money when he does these mukbangs.
It's appaling to see Nikacado Avocado call it "water weight" because as a chronic kidney patient it hurts to see him tarnish that real problem
It's honestly sad just how hard you can tell Nikocado is desperately grasping/reaching in his emotional retorts. Instead of taking time to plan out what he's going to say he decides to just turn on the camera in the middle of a manic episode and fumble over an attempted retort.
It’s an act…
It's obviously an act dude, the same Penguinz0 call it out about it (saying how dissapointed he is that Nikocado wouldn't break character to talk seriously never once).
@@Edhead. An act that's left his liver a fucking Foie Gras.
Yeah it's a complete act. There wasn't one genuine word that came from his rant. That's what Charlie was talking about when he said he is essentially not an idiot, and that he's taken the fully rational part of his mind and locked it away in order to keep his dramatic persona going. It's so sad I wish he would speak genuinely in just ONE video before the day comes that we never get to hear from him again.
I'm sorry Penguinz0 🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖🧸🧸🧸🧸
On the 1st January 2023, I weighed 177kg (about 390lb), which was the culmination of me spiralling both physically and mentally during the Pandemic, and led to me quitting my job after 10 years. I also was diagnosed with "potentially deadly sleep apnea", and my 12 year marriage was also on the rocks, and rightly so. I have since lost over 50kg as of this week, and I can attest to feeling much, much better both mentally and physically. I have a long way to go, but life is so much better at home and at work, and I can certainly state that being morbidly obese is friggin depressing, and you physically feel like shit all the time.
Congratulations! I wish you happiness and health ❤
That is remarkable, that kind of progress takes serious dedication, and I am so happy for you. I hope things keep getting better for you, and I hope you're proud of the progress you have made!!

Can anyone truly destroy Nikocado more than Nikocado themself?
bro's so fat he needs plural pronouns because he's as heavy as multiple people
Who are they?
His viewers encourage it.
Themself, is that a word? The brainwash is so strong these days
He can lose it any time he wants. You don't know the kind of discipline you have to have to play violin like he does, to be restricitve raw vegan like he was, one day he'll shock everyone and run off laughing with his millions into the sunset.
Recently came across your videos, just wanted to say theyre really well done and honestly a great watch.
Enjoy these types of videos. The time, effort, skill set, etc. it takes to put these together really shows. Keep it up, great stuff. 🤙
ZA WARUDOOOOOO!!
The last time I watched a video of him, it was quite sad. He was eating pizza and suddenly started crying, remembering the times he was often bullied in school
Don’t fall into the trap please. It’s all a game. Whether it’s true or not it doesn’t matter the man to loves to manipulate emotions.
I don't think it was his plant diet, it was that he would only eat fruit, and mostly avocado, he wasn't getting what he needed in his day from just eating like 8 avocados a day.
He went from one extreme (only eating fruit, and mostly one type of fruit) to another (only eating huge amounts of fat.)
yep. I call those types 'internet vegans'. they don't actually know anything about nutrition (often even saying we don't need protein) or whats in the food and proceed to fixate on one thing or another (Freely the bannana girl era) and often were very calorie deficient. it is all an excuse for their ED. vegan can be healthy but you've really got to balance what you're eating, b12 and iron deficiency can be found even in most omnivores and thats easy to get around.
i think so too he just has a very bad relationship with food either way and it's actually sad that his brain cannot grasp the idea of having a perfect balance
Then that explains it, I'm on a plant based diet and I have no complications so I was like "what did he do?"
Yes. My sympathy for him is limited, because he threw away all empathy for animals when he became a mukbanger. He went from vegan for the sake of the animals to wasting as many animal lives as possible. F him. It's sad, but he's still a jerk.
(Note that this is different from people who have never looked at the treatment of animals in our society, people who don't know, people who only know how to eat animal products in every meal. I don't have the same judgment of them. But someone who looked into it, successfully lived as a vegan [albeit an unhealthy fruitarian] for years and then turned to eating and wasting as many animal products as possible. Truly, F him.)
@@Cat_Woods far more likely he was a vegan because it was a popular trend and it would get him viewers. Never cared for the animals.
The way this aged…. Holy lmao
How come seemingly every time Charlie is in some kind of controversy, he seems to come out as the "winner"?

I guess he just happens to have a much healthier mindset than 90% of the content creators he comes across...
It's sad, but chances are that Nicocado will be in future textbooks as an accurately documented case study on the negative effects of social media and peer pressure on your body, mind, self- and public perception.
To be fair, if you let societal pressure you to gain weight and lose weight to that extreme effect, you need to see a therapist. If everything was caused by social media, I wouldn't be here.

I just come back here after 2 steps ahead video, absolutely cinema
I struggle to even watch short clips of nikocado. His personality is disgusting and his voice is grating. He does EVERYTHING for views. He amplifies the worst part of himself and fucks over everyone including himself for money and attention. Honestly I struggle to feel bad for a person getting everything they want. He wants views, money, and attention and he gets it. He doesn’t care about the well-being of himself or others so he doesn’t treat anyone well. He gets everything he wants and knows the risks that come along with it. I think I’m far more upset with his audience. Millions of people being entertained by and encouraging a greedy person killing themselves with their own greed. It’s sick that SO many people consider this entertainment. We need to do better as a society.
It’s hard to honestly watch the clips of him in this video
I've never realized just how crazy Nikocado's food consumption was. I thought he just bought a ton of food for the thumbnail, but when Charlie said he finishes everything I was shocked. I don't think I could consume that much in one sitting without throwing up.
Ntm how awful you feel with that kind of insulin spike. I have no clue how people do this stuff.
I sometimes struggle with 2 pizza slices. omg
Yeah, his over eating is a form of greed by itself
I am underweight. My sister is overweight. Both of us are unhealthy and aim to be better without putting ourselves down, but neither of us would ever act like this man... He had at some point twisted his self-destruction into profit and shifted the blame onto outsiders so hard that I'm sure he's 100% convinced himself that nothing is ever his fault. His growing paranoia and anger means that he's rotted himself mentally, rather than just physically, and the more he interacts with the internet the worse he seems to become out of spite and a need for money and attention.
It's honestly been too sad to look at, so I try to avoid him wherever I see him pop up, even in memes, but I do hold an innocent little hope that one day he can pull or be pulled out of the dangerous mental spiral he's allowed himself to fall into so deeply. It's not just about his looks or physical health, it's the toxic behaviour that he has had towards it and towards others because of it. He, at his worst, is the pinnacle of what me and my sis would never want to become during our own health journeys. The manipulative bouts of despair and lashing out at everyone is frightening.
Wishing you and your sister the best of luck!
Being fat still worse tho
That Charlie/Penguin guy does seem like a good caring person. I had just recently learned who Nickacado was after hearing his name mentioned in another video. He does truly seem to be mentally unstable. I hope he receives the help he needs.
That's just it though he's blending issues to build tension the machine he constantly shows or mentions is a CPAP he has sleep apnea during the night he will fall asleep on his back and he will slowly begin to breathe less and less until he will inhale and just stop younger people will almost always wake up within seconds but older people or people with disabilities sometimes can't but that machine will pump oxygen gently and slowly through his airway preventing it's from closing he keeps it around like a oxygen tank then after you're awake you have to remove the tubes and soak them in a antibacterial soap for a long time and then put them though a rinse cycle in the dishwasher if you don't properly do this bacteria forms and then you'll immediately inhale it straight to your lungs causing popcorn lung or pneumonia so with context clues his ribs are because of his lung infections and violently coughing all day everyday will crack ribs plus if the infection spreads he may develop a blodd infection causing sepsis which leads to septic shock none of them are fun ways to go but instead of just cleaning his tubes better he blames viewers most likely for sympathy every thing he pilee on his viewers is really his fault I mean sleep apnea is genetic but eating and now his nasty cough and broken ribs were his

"two steps ahead" moment
This is just sad. I used to watch Nick's violin videos, he is insanely talented and seeing the path he chose to take is so sad. This can't be who he really is, everything he does is so dramatic and over the top, he wasn't like that before. I remember the drama he got into with Trisha Paytas years ago, and he was so calm and logical and handled that situation so well, he was so likeable and it really drew you in. I don’t know what happened to him, but he's almost become a caricature of himself now, it's strange. Charlie wasn't even saying that he's bad because he's fat, he's saying it's not healthy or safe to gain 200 pounds within a few years and it's not okay that people watch and encourage the unhealthy behavior, he's actually concerned about him. I really hope Nick gets some help.
What happened to him? Money. A lot of people would do anything for money.
@ayeshak6822 I'm fully convinced mental illness plays a part in this, though. Of course money, but I just don't think that's all there is to it. His behavior is bizarre at best, highly concerning and dangerous to himself at worst.
@@ayeshak6822 I've seen a lot of people throw their morals under the bus and the consideration of other people out the window for money, but never have I ever seen before someone so masochistic and willing to humiliate/destroy themselves in front of millions in order to get money. I don't even know how I would live with myself if I was in Nick's shoes.
I find it a little cynical (though reasonable) to say Nick is only doing this to himself for the money, but it really is impossible to know why Nick is doing this.
@@1800PAlN It's like some kind of surreal deviant circus act, I can't even imagine a mentally healthy person choosing that path, even for money. It's tempting to blame his viewers... and I would contend that they are also deviant and perverse for wanting to watch such content... but it's absurd for him not to put the blame squarely on himself. I think he knows it, and his whole personality is an act done for more views, his faux outrage at that Penguin dude included. He just can't resist the allure of the money and the fame/notoriety.

I am absolutely terrified of turning out like Nikocado. I'm 360 after months of dieting. I am scared out of my mind of being confined to a bed or needing round the clock care just to put my socks on or go to the bathroom. The idea of my body being a prison like that haunts me.
Good. It sucks, but if that's what it takes for you to motivate yourself in the, frankly lifelong struggle to lose weight and be healthy, more power to you. Just remember it's a marathon not a sprint. Best of luck to you.
No matter how hard it gets, just keep moving forward. Best of luck in your path to getting healthier 👍🏼
That's when fear is good. Use it to motivate yourself and good luck! We all want you to do well, even if you haven't met us.
Keep up the good work of months of dieting, even during those rotten plateaus, even when u fall hard off the wagon. That’s what the next hour is for. Don’t “wait until tomorrrow” to get back on. Do it the second you realize you don’t like that feeling. Your failure to stay on doesn’t matter, your decision to get back on does.
You can do it, you’re worth it, you deserve to feel good and you will with every little success. And don’t forget to mentally celebrate each one. When I could tighten my belt a bit, I called it “a belt loop victory” and throw a little party in my head. Create your own pat on the back and soon other people will be joining you. Just remb your self-congrats is and always will be the most important one. 🩵
In addition to the other advice here, I wanted to say - don't beat yourself up or let guilt demoralize you if you stumble in your routine. Yes, get back on the wagon asap, but remember that you've only failed if you let yourself totally give up. You'll only bring yourself closer to that result if you mentally flay yourself for fucking up and missing a workout or eating badly for a meal. Instead, make sure to reward your successes much more than you punish your mistakes.
I've been "researching" the Nikocado Avocado "phenomenon" for quite some time, as I also kinda battled with unhealthy eating, until I realized that I'm destroying my body.
Various documentaries about this guy actually inspired me to start losing weight.
Unhealthy food became somewhat like a drug for me. I can't imagine how some numbers on a screen under the form of likes, views or subscribers would further fuel a person's determination to continue doing something like this.
Still a bit sad for him. I still hope he'll turn around and start a weight loss journey before it's too late.
Nah Bro is two steps ahead of everyone else.
It seems clear to me that this man has never had a healthy relationship with food, but you cant help someone who doesnt want to help themselves.
it's not the food it's the attention, if he didn't get the attention he wouldn't be morbidly obese
It's crazy. He blamed a plant based diet saying he wasn't healthy before... And I was like OK maybe he didn't have variety or maybe it just wasn't for him. We're all different. And then he said "orange juice diet". Like wtf?? OJ isn't very healthy at all. It's pure sugar. Especially if it's store bought and has no fiber in it.
@@chibifirestorm I think you missed the point the commenter wanted to make with "this man has never had a healthy relationship with food."
He already had an unhealthy relationship with food before starting his first TH-cam channel. He was severely underweight and following some extreme version of "veganism" which resulted in deficiencies in essential nutrients such as iron and B12.
That does not mean, however, that attention and money are not multiplying the damage, both physical and mental, of his underlying mental health problems.
Except when he weighed 145 lbs lol back before he turned into a gluttonous overweight nasty human being.
I love how in all of these exposés, the primary takeaways are "Don't mess with Penguinz0", "Do not do something so bad you get covered by Penguinz0", and "If you are fighting with Penguinz0, do not continue to fight"
Charlie is just a force to reckon with, all while being a model of mental discipline
Definitely a model of mental something
I disagree with all of your statements. It's people like you that have given charlie his power. Charlie is just an observationalist, who is under weight. His cool, calm, and collectedness, is just an act. He is just as much of a manipulative sack as Nicko. The difference is you dick ride Charlie.
Charlie is The Grim Reaper of TH-cam. Whoever wants to make a beef with him, their channel is always dying months later.
My hopes is to actually do something so good to get covered by Penguinz0.
At some point, I wanted to get out there and scream into the void of twitter, daring him to play my game's free demo and offer his constructive feedback on it as well as determine if he'd buy the game when its done if its on itch.😅
He’s taken over what idubbbz used to be back when he was good.
the fact that you have other youtubers like mrballen and dragonheartanimations commenting and worrying about nick is kinda wholesome in a way and kinda shows that most the youtube community worries and is there for each other
and now time to remake this.
what nikocado gotta realize is while you can be skinny and unhealthy you can never be obese and healthy
He's very aware of that fact. He just pretends he doesn't because it gets him more rage clicks. It's all an act
You actually can, in many european coutries you used to see fat people live long lives, with no more or less health issues than average. Things started to go bad when more and more processed junk food entered the daily diet...
Not just obese, morbidly obese.
@@roulpops2699 which european countries, specifically? and what era? bc most rarely had obese people back in the day. and healthy obese is a myth. there’s no such thing. a fat person can barely physically move (as evident by his healthy panting)) so they can’t really work out, and that’s crucial to be healthy, and they’re prone to lots of diseases. that’s like saying a smoker is healthy just bc they haven’t gotten lung cancer yet. or that an alcoholic is healthy just bc their liver still works. except it’s worse than both those examples. healthily obese is a tiktok myth
obese and healthy should have an asterisk, given water weight is a real thing and actually affects people. I have water weight, i'm not obese or anything, but it does feel like shit. I eat super healthy, 90%+ of my meals homemade and/or vegan. I actually was once obese, even though I ate super healthy, and it only was until a hospital visit for a surgery where they found that they could inject stuff into me to make me piss more, and ended up going from obese to slightly underweight in about five days, taking a piss every hour or two. I lost 50+ pounds (~20kg) of weight. It doesn't actually effect a ton of people though, so it is completely understandable to not take that into consideration. Have a great day.
You can tell Charlie's responses are put together and considered before he records. I enjoy the calmness with which he makes his points.
Damn.
I had such high hopes for him, he worked so hard. I am trying to lose weight currently but to see him return after losing 80 pounds is absolutely heart wrenching. There are people who would do anything to lose 80 pounds, but to him, he would rather go back to eating the most nasty food, and continue to shave years off of his lifespan.
It is sad to say, but he has likely confirmed his early death.
He never lost 89 lbs. The famous “89 el bees” is an Amberlynn Reid reference. Nik has been trolling Amberlynn for years. I’m reality, he probably lost 20-30 lbs.
@@DanielleStarry damn. That's rough
He’s a lost cause
Who's here after his transformation?
This man had reawakened my deep underlining fear of gluttony. I can’t remember exactly why I have it but I remember it starting with Tim Burtons “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and the character Augustus. So I tried watching Muk Bang but couldn’t. And this man makes the scariest out of all of them of just eating an unhealthy amount of food and basically eating himself to death. So yeah. When it showed longer clips of his videos, I had to look away. It is weird but I can’t control this panicky feeling.
Fears are often past life "lessons" to not repeat things. Fear of heights - previous life maybe pushed off a cliff. Claustrophobic - previous life maybe buried alive. Fear of a specific animal- maybe attacked in a previous life.
Fears are never irrational but rather so strong that your soul never wants to experience that type of event again. Gluttony is bad for mental & physical health so having a strong avoidance is a great thing.
its completely understandable, i have been scared of basically eating to death myself, and while i still DO eat unhealthy food, i try to limit my proportions so i don't become a living exercise ball
@@namehere4954 then why is my phobia about falling into the sky?
@@BeefMeisterSupremePast life before Isaac Newton invented gravity.
So do I, gosh it feels good hearing someone else with a similar experience.
For me, it was that scene in Matilda where the teachers forced a little boy to eat an entire chocolate cake until he was sick.
That, with some other factors (seeing family members on both sides of the disordered eating spectrum) has lit a fire in me to keep a balanced diet and make sure I exercise. But I have a really hard time looking at certain foods or watching people eat at all.
Something that helped me with my eating related panic is learning how to cook and bake a many kinds of foods.
Knowing I made the food makes me feel good about watching it be enjoyed, and overrides my anxiety.
9:58 the fact that it actually pains him to breath is genuinely scary and concerning and he goes onto say its our fault when people in the comments are telling him to stop
To be fair, his own fan base is partially to blame.
They basically encourage him to do this, and he’s enabling this downfall.
He’s literally breathing as if he just ran 10 miles. Yet the only thing he’s running is his mouth
No it's literally his genetic that weird mask with the tubes on each side is called a CPAP machine he has sleep apnea while he sleeps on his back he will breathe slowly to the point his sinuses will actually seal shut which causes him to hold his breath for a long time eventually your body will react with convulsions as a fight or flight reaction he then wakes up gasping for air basically having choked on his own sinuses that noce attachment will gently and slowly pump oxygen into his airway stopping the suffocating part sadly though sometimes people don't wake up and then can actually die cleaning them is very important if bacteria forms in the tubes and you then inhale them that can cause pneumonia or popcorn lung which explains the huge violent cough he has his tubes weren't cleaned enough or they weren't properly sanitized sleep apnea is not from food or weight gain it's a underdeveloped sinus cavity
One thing ive learned. Dont start a fight with charlie. He will beat you down with new words you have never heard and a calm monotone voice.
STEPHANIE FREAKING SOO, i completely forgot about this whole thing, ive been watching her TH-cam videos recently and i could figure out why she looked so familiar
I've only randomly seen bits and pieces of Charlie's content here and there. I didn't realize he's a unicorn. A TH-camr with a very large following who still possesses a soul and is a legitimate decent person. I'm going to have to start checking his channel out more regularly
If you haven’t found it already, and true crime/conspiracy/cryptids sounds like a genre you’d be interested in, Charlie, Wendigoon/Isaiah (who is just as much a unicorn as Charlie, though I don’t think he’s as big), and another guy I don’t know much about (but seems to slot into their dynamic really well) have a podcast on here called “The Red Thread” on the “The Official Podcast” TH-cam channel. That genre, alongside religion and general horror media, is also just Wendigoon’s whole brand.
Charlie is a genuine, honest and kind guy. Talks a lot of sense. It’s a shame that avocado didn’t see this & instead went for the dramatic overkill of playing the victim.
Oh avocado can probably see it well. Too bad the need for internet validation outweighs the need for health recovery.
niko's channel is a perfect distillation of the biggest problem with youtube channels--audience capture. giving people what they want above all else. a vicious cycle that eventually destroys you. turns you into a shell of your former self. people like tim pool, dave rubin, etc also are like this. the ultimate example in choosing everything except being true to yourself and caring only about money
And there's even people that sort of created a persona before they realised and changed themselves after seeing the aftermath. A good example is Jacksepticeye (Sean) and Markiplier. It can destroy you mentally and even outside of youtube it can be a problem.
I'm just glad he lost weight
Not necessarily money - "famous" - fame is vicious for many people. The same way he ate and never felt fulfilled, it happens with fame too. Never enough, never good enough, never filling the hole in the soul. Sux to see
@@BarretKruseI have worked with a number of models and can promise you beauty is identical to that! I remember asking one girl if she could be the second most beautiful girl in the world, would she finally be happy? And she said no.
@@Syclone0044 ask if being the first most beautiful, probably get the same answer
Found ur videos a lil ago and man I’ve Been binging, ur content is amazing man def one of the best documenters I’ve watched
How I missed this channel for so long. Found it the other day.. Binged them all. Cool to see a face with the voice.. Keep up the good work. One thing I like about this channel, since the beginning till today. Not a lot has changed, it's the same basic yet informative concept despite the channel growth.
Nikocado is proof that people cave under peer pressure and the views and monetization also just add fuel to the fire, Its so sad to watch him hurt his body like that and Charlie is a great dude for sharing a calm and expansive outlook, I really hope Nikocado doesn't pass away he seems like a genuinely cool dude that is battling a rough inner battle. Like Penguin said its just hard to watch, I used to be 300+lbs but after nearly a decade of proper dieting and eating patterns I am down to a still high but manageable 189lb and 5' 11''. I still suffer from pains but taking supplements soon and had a ton of dental work done and reclaiming my life one small step at a time. Its never easy to undo such damage and I honestly Wish Nikocado the best and hope he changes I side with Penguin. No one should endorse or condone when its in such repetition as penguin stated there are successful Mukbang's.
TRO did a good vid on nikocado that showed even when he was in the vegan community he wasn't the nicest guy, mainly just abusive to his friends and overall toxicity
Nikocado needs a purge. And I really like what Penguinz0 said about how Matt Stonie will eat like this once a month or so (with daily exercise) but Nick eats like that practically every day. I also eat fast food and admittedly I don't have the best diet but I get exercise and I'm still skinny. It's just important to balance things out and not let any addictions control your life. Nick needs to recognize he has a problem.
Honestly, compared to 300+ lbs, a BMI of ~26 is great! Could losing more weight be better? Sure. Thanks for being an inspiration to others and good luck on whatever your remaining weight goals are.
@@BKScience812 I feel at a healthier weight and more mentally stable than ive been in years thanks for the kind words.
Was the dental work expensive? I can't find anywhere that isn't thousands of dollars that I don't have.
As a wise man once said
“A block of iron is worth $5, made into a horseshoe is worth $15 made into a ring is worth $5000 made into balance springs for watches it’s $35000. Your worth is determined by what you are able to make of yourself”
he's a human, humans are worth $2M to $5M, he made himself into a pig. pig is worth $1K at best, what a waste
@@luizmonad777 Kind of harsh but also not really false.
@@luizmonad777 At least pigs are delicious... this thing is just toxic even before all the fat gathers.
How nikado avocado destroyed penguinz0 next videos
Addiction comes in many forms and I have enough life experience to recognize it when I see it.
I really hope Nik ends up sorting himself out. His situation makes me more sad than anything else. He was (and still very well could be) a talented musician, but clout brainrot is literally derailing his life.
His addiction is views and attention. What a sad individual...
@@AudreyLudlowand disgusting too. Watching someone shovel Food into his Facehole like a Pig is not nice to watch.
He Has harmed and Hurt so many others! What about them!
Funny he could've fixed the vegan problem with a good steak once a week. Like literally all those deficiencies gone without any weight gain. Yet he acts like he'd die if he wasn't gorging himself on a daily basis
There are also plenty of vegies that give vitamin b's as well as organic vegan based multivitamins. It sounds to me like he didnt even try.
I have Vitamin b and d deficiencies or rather to say i work at night so i dont get much sunlight and despite eating salmon and vegies that contain vitamin b's i still need a supplement to get to levels that help my body.
I concur. I ate vegan for years, but simply supplemented properly, ate a lot of varied nutritious food, I was fine, did blood work and everything and it always came back consistently solid. even did weight lifting and got in decent shape while eating vegan. I plan to return to veganism sometime in the future. Idiots who do it completely wrong give it a bad name@@SuperRedNovaDragon
That… that’s not why people do vegan….
@Quad777888999 there a distinction between a health vegan and a moral vegan. He was a health vegan so there wouldn't have been a problem with having meat on occasion for health reasons. I mean clearly the guy doesn't think it's morally wrong to eat animals lol
aLSO its giga easy to be hEALTHY vegan@@godalseif
Nikocado thinks he's "fluffy"? He's not "fluffy", he's "damn!".
No he’s “oh hell no!”
I really didnt expect gabriel references here, but hey, aint complaining. Just like nicocado, he was also at his peak in his beginning times@@logandominguez1100
EXACTLY!
no, he's not "Damn!" he's "AW HELL NO"
@@logandominguez1100 Thank you for clarifying with the new, sixtg level of fatness.
Nikocado: I gained a little weight
*Gains 200 lbs in a few years*
The one thing i will give nikocado is his ability to stay in character is impressive. He almost never breaks it.
He's either one of the most devoted actors to his field, or he is genuinely like this. I think I saw an interview where he accidentally 'broke character', but I honestly believe that this persona is real.
The guy fully destroyed his physical and mental health….
Yeah must be a character… 🫤
Man i love how ppl say Nikocado is stupid dumb doo doo but is actually acting
while IShowSpeed is actually crazy acoustic andd ppl say he js acting
@@willybe6427 Two steps ahead
When I was recovering from an ED I went so hard into the other end of the spectrum because I was angry at all the restricting and not allowing myself certain foods. I gained so much weight and fluctuated a lot in my eating habits. It was one of the worst times of my life but I think it was crucial to my recovery. I am at an average weight for my height now. Its honestly sad to see Nick hurting himself and even more sad that its a source of income (I would imagine).
Just listening to Nick talk, you can tell hes narcissistic, and throws tantrums worse than any child. I feel sorry for everyone who's had contact with him. I hope he wakes up one day and finally realizes what hes doing.
He’s ACTING.
@@notme9106 acting like that get views, more views more money, you're new to youtube or something?
mukbangs are some of the most disgusting things i've ever had the displeasure of seeing.
