    Cant believe ive been watching you since fourth grade, im 20 now with a full time job graduating university in a year and it feels surreal to watch you to this day. As much as youve grown one thing i hope you understand is that youve affected millions of people and made our childhoods better. I still remember your d1 novabomb montage which was the first video I watched and since then ive been watching you every week at least once. Wishing you the best on your journey and I hope you know how much of a positive effect youve had on me and how many times youve made me laugh. Thank you for everything and I hope one day i get to sit down and play some destiny with you.

    Fruit you’re wrong on one point…
    Your content is an escape, it does bring me joy, entertainment, & laughter.
    You should always focus on what’s best for you & your family, but I want you to know that all these years later I still look forward to all of your videos.

    I almost feel guilty that I've got to enjoy the increase in quality in your videos and how much joy I've gotten the past few years from watching your channel, when you haven't been able to reap as much growth as you deserve. Wishing you a speedy recovery and most importantly, all the support you need physically and mentally. Hoping the best for you, Fruit!

    Mr. Fruit,
    Back in 2014 or so was when I first really got into watching TH-cam and when i stumbled upon your videos I decided that YOU would be my favorite content creator of all time.
    I subscribed for the content but i stayed for the personalities of you, the dream team, and the extended dream team. My interests have changed over the years but I always make sure I save time to keep up with your content (especially the GG Over EZ Podcast, it's my favorite).
    You're the only creator I choose to watch all of the ads for (unless its the ones that last an hour or more, sorry that's too much) and I will continue to do that as you've continued your journey. I appreciate everything you've done and I wish you the best on your surgery!

    These types of videos are important. I have recently had to come to terms with a non-curable heart disease that very slowly deteriorates and the destiny 2 quote hit me hard.

    Hey Fruit! I'm one of the many that found you through the Among Us boom and have stuck around ever since. While TTT and pokemon have been my favorite content you've put out, I've enjoyed so much more. From Golf to Cult of the Lamb, Mario Kart rage to whatever random indie game, it's all been there to help me through tough times of my own. I've also had to drop out of college recently due to mental health challenges. I appreciate you always being real with us, showing not just the highs but also the lows. Best of luck with the surgery, and I know that at least I will be around for however long you continue your youtube adventure. Thank you for all the fun smiles and memories you, and the dream team, have caused!

    Praying and wishing you all the best for your surgery. I've had over 13 surgeries from my left hip to my left ankle, with lots of titanium rods, screws, plates, physical therapy, and about two years of recovery. I'm now getting closer to running again.
    Run, Mr. Fruit. Run with your current ambitions and never look back or stagnate. We both know life is too short to dwell. Depression sucks, and I'm really rooting for you, brother. When I was younger, I watched you a lot, along with Datto, especially during the two months I was in the hospital.
    I'm so glad to see you still working, but always remember to take care of yourself too. You only get one shot at life, and a little quote I like to pull from the bank a lot "Your future hasn't been written yet. No one's has. Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one." -Doc Brown "Back to The Future 3"

You have been my go to entrainment for the last 10+ years and I hope you know that you have made such a meaningful impact in my life. The part in the video where you stated you don’t feel like your videos serve as a outlet anymore couldn’t be more false. Myself and many others in this comment section will tell you that they look forward to every upload. Your transparency With your personal life has inspired so many others to combat depression, I have always admired your ability to solider through all of the bumps and curves in the road. Anyways, whatever you end up doing I’ll be here till the last upload, thanks an amazing 10 years! ❤

    Hey Fruit! 2017 viewer here. You have always been one of my biggest inspirations as a kid and even to today. I’ve always loved watching your videos. I started with your Destiny content because it was a game I picked up on a whim, with some that come to mind being your Nova Bomb and Shoulder Charge Music videos. Iron Banner bets, and Hide and seek. Later I watched some of your variety content. TTT, Lethal league, Gang Beasts, Citizen Burger Disorder, What the Box, Rust, and of course one of my favorites was Mr fruit Highlights. It was always a treat to see your thumbnail pop up on my feed, and I could identify it immediately because of that space background you’ve always used which is now very nostalgic to me. I’m glad that out of the channels I’ve watched through out the years this was one of them, and I’m in it for the long haul. There are a lot of TH-camrs out there, but there is and always will be only one Mr. Fruit.

    Hey so I like never comment so I'm gonna say like alot if that's okay. My name is JJ and I've been watching you for about 6 to 7 years I'm was like 13 or 14 and I'm turning 20 in July you have kept me alive when it was the so rough for me cuz I just love your content I've watched every single pokemon play through at least once and like half of them 2 or more times I know so much about pokemon and have beaten every game at least once because of you. # rip the excavalier that had rage powder or something which made it unkillable. After your pokemon videos your Roguelike videos are my favorite I'm a huge Roguelike game fan and that's thanks to you to lol, almost any Roguelike game you've played I've watched the video and gotten the game and also played till I beat it " I still haven't beaten the last spell but is one of my all time favorite games and I have about 600 hours in it cuz I loved your videos on it so much. I hope your surgery goes well and I will be waiting on your return I don't know what I would've done without your content thank you so much. I Love You no homo lol. Oh also just thought of this I played spellbreak when your videos about it came out years ago and I checked to see if that game was still a thing and it's not, big sad. Anyway keep up the great content I hope this comment isn't to much to read and I hope the money helps.
    Love you man. Your biggest fan JJ.
    Ps I know this comment is cringe and I would never do anything like this for anyone else lol.

I hope I can continue to deliver content you enjoy and I’m glad my game recommendations or videos have helped you out - I too love The Last Spell and really want to go back and finish the last bit I have to do especially since there’s new DLC. I’m sure you’ve probably seen it but in case you haven’t I had uploaded more The Last Spell to Mr. Fruit Uncut a bit back if you want to see more of that!

    Don't be scared Mr. Fruit! I broke my jaw in hockey and had to have my mouth wired shut for 3 months! I am a big food lover just like, and all I could eat was soup and milkshakes. At the beginning I was in deep panic, but I embraced it, and found out it was a very good excuse to still play hockey and work out everyday, and it helped me fall into the best shape I have ever been in my life! Another thing, with your channel, its just like life. If you have friends, and you change something in your life drastically, the true OG friends will always be by your side, all of the fake friends will disappear. So even though you will be changing your content after surgery, your true OG's (me being one of them) will stick with you no matter what! After that, It will give you the chance to gain new fiends and new OG's! I will always be here Mr. Fruit, and I know there will be a lot of people with me! Good luck with your surgery, and we all will be praying and waiting for your return!!!!!!!!

    I remember my friend showing me your Destiny videos, specifically the Space Magic montage, and I became a regular viewer. I struggled with many mental and physical issues in that time, including depression and chronic headaches that practically rendered me bedridden for almost 2 years. Your content helped me keep a smile on my face, and push through to where I am today.

    MISTAA FROOOOOT! Hey there big guy! I started watching you and your videos probably about 9 years ago. I found your channel as a freshman in college, and I’m happy to say that I’ve been watching pretty much every video you’ve made since. I don’t know if it’s weird saying this, but I feel like you, the dream team, and the content you made together were always there to brighten up my day. I had my highs and lows but with the consistency you showed, I always knew I had something to watch and enjoy and I was always grateful. You and the boys definitely got me through some tough times. College, breakups, family passing, whatever it may have been you and the boys were there. But you were also always transparent about the highs and lows you were going through too! You never tried to portray yourself as this superhuman who never had any problems, and I always respected that about you. And while I may not have always commented, I felt like I always tried to be there and support the cahntent whenever I could. Now that I’m just a regular old adult, I understand the world a lot better than when I first started watching you. And while it would break my heart to see this chapter of your life come to a close, I would never put that against you or anyone else. Thank you for giving us so many fond memories and moments that we’ll be able to look back on forever! I hope that everything goes well with your surgery and I’m looking forward to what you cook up in the future. Love ya Mr. Fruit, never change my man! ❤

    I have been watching since the early destiny days, and even though I fell away from destiny a while ago (it really feels like a different lifetime now), I have always held you as my favorite content creator. In truth, it's been heartbreaking as a viewer to see videos you put out not do well, even though those were usually some of my favorites (I love the 1 or 2 of indie game vids). I hope everything goes well with the surgery and recovery, I just underwent knee surgery at 19 so I understand the fear of not being able to stay active. Best of luck Mr. Fruit and I will be eagerly awaiting whatever is next in your journey!!!

    @amethystcovette 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My brother got me into your content during the 60 second review days. We played a lot of D1 at the time and we enjoyed the comedy that those had.
    I enjoyed the D1 stuff pretty good but it wasn’t until the variety popped up that I truly became a part of house fruit. After that, I started watching anything and everything you posted and enjoyed it all.
    D1 content got me started but your personality is what made me stay

    I've been watching your channel for the past eight years, and that is crazy to think about, especially now that I have a kid coming within the next few weeks. I still remember the late nights watching Destiny, Golf It, and Fruit Summit videos (along with many others). I also remember when I realized why the Apple Bees in some of your videos looked familiar; it was/is the Apple Bees in my hometown town XD. Every time I drive past it, I have the urge to watch another Mr. Fruit video. I'm praying that your surgery goes well and that you recover soon. I'm looking forward to everything you have in store for the rest of the year (and the movie-long videos!).

I just want you to know that I (and other long time viewers) still appreciate and enjoy you and your videos. And we will continue to do so with whatever you decide you want to do going forward. I hope for the best with your upcoming surgery, and a very speedy recovery 🫡

    I wish I knew exactly when I started watching your vids but I know it was around the Destiny weapon review videos. You were a part of my daily routine and still are to this day, it was nice to finally see some of the bowl of fruit vids as I've never seen them till now. Its crazy to see how we change over the years and those would have been right up my alley with the commentary. I wish you luck with your surgery and you have a wonderful life in whatever you decide, just know you'll be like Mr. Rogers in my eyes, someone we grew up with and someone we'll always remember fondly.

    I’ve watched you for over 6 years now and you’re still my favorite creator. I love your videos and they help me unwind so much. From TTT to jack box and Among us, I keep going back and rewatching old videos because I love them so much and they bring me joy. GG over EZ was the first podcast I ever listened to, and it’s my favorite. It got me through allot of days at work. Thank you for keeping at it! I love every video I watch and always look forward to the next one. Good luck Mr fruit!! Def be praying for you man. You got this in the bag.

You've truly made me happy and laugh and been there whenever I felt like I wasn't having the best of days, so thank you again for always being there Mr. Fruit 😊❤

  • @jonflamming8775
    @jonflamming8775 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Came back to the channel today to see how you're doing and man, got hit with tons of nostalgia and appreciation for the joy you've brought people over the years. I was going into high school when I and some friends found you and the Taken King was coming out, and the years of Destiny, your content and that of others are such a fond memory. Life has changed, gotten sweeter, and I'm a few years past Destiny now but still feel like that was one of my sweetest memories growing up. I think a really underappreciated and incredibly unique quality you brought to this space has always been your ability to galvanize other creative people together to create something bigger and better than themselves. The Dream Team is the great thing I think you gave us and we all still treasure that. Wishing you the best and praying your surgery recovery has been good!

You've been the most comforting content creator I've ever had the pleasure to watch and try to support as best as possible, and I only wish the best for you and your future. I hope everything goes in your favor and that you feel the love and support of the community that you've created.

And then I was introduced during your among us phase, and myself and our son LOVE you’re among us and party animals videos (though our son is def moving onto other stuff of yours now too, with their fathers assistance lol) for us you’re a family favorite. And you’re just PG enough that I feel like anything my kiddos learns is just a good conversation starter for teaching them ourselves. So thank you for being so entertaining and wholesome (most of the time) we will always be fans, and we’re supporting you as much as we can ❤❤❤❤

    @Destiny2Enjoyer 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Mr Fruit, you’ve been my favorite TH-camr for 9 years, literally half my life as I’m 18 and recently graduated high school. You never fail to make some of the best content on TH-cam because of your amazing personality and how funny you are (I’ve been rewatching the TTT series, still probably the funniest stuff on TH-cam imo). Hearing about your journey, it’s really incredible how you’ve persevered throughout the highs and lows of your TH-cam career and personal life. And I’m so sorry for your troubles with your jaw, but don’t worry because you’ll make it through! I can’t exactly relate, but this past year I had a catastrophic knee injury that required two major surgeries, so the inability to walk and all the physical therapy was making me really depressed. Anyways, I’m telling you all this to say that experiences like these will only make you stronger. I can’t imagine how tough it will be to be unable to speak and only be able to drink liquids for that amount of time. Also, I’m so happy to hear that your TH-cam career will continue! I know that I and many others will continue to support you wherever life takes you! Fruit, my thoughts and prayers are with you throughout your surgery and healing process, and thank you for delivering my favorite CAHNTENT for the last nine years!

    You are my inspiration. I am currently in university and I have never felt this useless in life before, I just like you want to give TH-cam one last shot once my summer break starts. The only issue is I know its not going to work out, and I will feel lost more then ever afterwards. I am not enjoying uni, rather I am struggling to get through day by day (have had a few breakdowns, which I have told no one about), I barely keep contact with my friends since I just don't feel like doing anything. TH-cam has always been a dream and enjoy to do, and I wanted to thank you for everything you have done for me and others.

    Mr. Fruit changed my life. No other person has had such an impact on my approach to content creation, community, and viewer engagement as you Mr. Fruit. You will be the number one thing I take away from the internet, long after I’m old and stop being online as much.
    I am hoping to try and fulfill something I remember seeing in a comment section or on the Mr. Fruit subreddit. The Mr. Fruit Challenge. When you start your surgery and recovery I want to try and drink one meal or at least one food every day in solidarity with you.
    Your approach to life, variety, and mental health show me what it means to be a positive role model in the online community, and I want to do something or anything to show that we stand by you and are here for you, no matter where you go. I will cherish every minute I spent watching your videos and look forward to seeing where life takes you next. Thank you for all these years of memories.

Your videos helped me strive not only to be a better person, but the be the best husband and father I could be. You’ve helped me through some of my lowest points just by being here. I pray for a fast recovery and hope that we as a community can give back a bit and keep you strong both mentally and emotionally through your recovery period. o7.

    Oh man, jumping back some years to finding the Mr Fruit Destiny gameplay videos and getting into Destiny myself. Loved watching the videos to get insight on weapon performances and team play strategies. Marked a good turning point for me after taking a career change and relocating to place that didn't fit me and put me essentially in my own depression where it felt like I was alone with just me and my cat in a strange place with no one around. i made a few friends on PSN through Destiny and started playing regularly with some. My parents helped me out financially and I was able to move to my house in the town I grew up and am married now myself. Granted Destiny 1 & 2 are in the past and I don't play but those are some fond memories that help brighten up a dark spot.

    Man, ten years. I started watching before I even really understood how to sign into a TH-cam account, back at the beginning of Destiny 1. This channel has been the bright spot through all of my own rough spots in life. So many times watching all of your videos over and over again, to the point of knowing some almost by heart. Whether it’s Destiny content or something else, you never fail to make something great in my eyes. Keep going at your own pace, and take it easy through your recovery. We’ll all still be here, looking forward to what the future holds.

    Christian,
    As I sit here typing this, I think the first video of yours I was introduced to by TH-cam, was your Iron Banner Bets vids. Been a fan of yours since then. Some of the videos I always watch of yours ironically aren't Destiny at all. I always like watching either your TTT vids, or Golf It vids, because I like watching how the extended Dream Team always interacted with one another. I just wanted to say that seeing where you have come, and the success you have obtained, as a fan, I am incredibly proud of you, and wish you a speedy recovery from your procedure. Stay positive, man!! All of us will be here when you return!!

I always appreciate the videos, you're always a positive force in this ecosystem. I felt the same with Cayde's speech and also this being a second chance for Nathan to finish the story properly. I hope the surgery goes well and same for the recovery. Take it day by day and hour by hour. You've built a great support group around you. Don't forget to lean on them. Fly, you Phoenix!

Your friendship with Blue and Rhab has been a cornerstone of my cousin and I's humor, and your own journey is what has been inspiring me to try out streaming myself.
    Needless to say, Thank you for the years of incredible vibes, and I'm praying for the best on your surgery, recovery, and that the future shines brighter than every before. o7

    Mr. Fruit, I've been watching your content since D1 came out in my freshman year of college, and I just want to say thanks for all the good times. It's wild that you and the extended Dream Team have been one of my primary forms of entertainment for practically my entire adult life. Nowadays I'm mainly 'podcast' type viewer that runs your videos while working (the nuzlockes especially give me life), and I may be a lurker that rarely comments or chats on twitch, but I have always been and will continue to be a fan. I hope your surgery goes well tomorrow and that the recovery is easy!
    I'll also try to find the time to grind out Erdtree so I can watch today's video and the uncut playthrough while you're gone without spoiling myself lol

Whenever my depression hit me, your content was there and truely did help me feel at keast somewhat better. I remember one of my worst flare ups, you had posted a video about your mental health, this was roughly 2 years ago. That video hit me hard and finally let me be okay with feeling. Rather than just hold everything back and suppressing it. It helped me go and get help. Had I not I don't know if I would be here now. What I am saying Mr. Fruit is thank you for all of cohntent!

    Fruit, it wasn’t until I found your channel again in 2019-2020ish but I used to be a diehard destiny 1 player and I would often watch your videos while I played. I came back for the variety content and I have stayed, I watch every new video across all your channels, and you introduced me to my favorite genre of games, rougelikes. I have no idea what I’m doing with my life, but your content never fails to cheer me up and put a smile on my face. No matter what the future looks like fruit, you have been a huge help and a source of happiness. We love you fruit ❤️
