Nooo..... THE Billy Mitchell?! Greatest Donkey Kong Player and star of "The King of Kong" Documentary?! No way he could be telling the truth!
Great work Karl, just making these banger videos consistently 💯
Magic fork
“No one who dresses this well could lie”
That one really got me
I had to rewind a second to make sure I heard it right. lol
Yeah, that whole thing was funny. The yes collum then casually mentions his multiple arrests for fraud 🤣
You see, it's funny because people who dress nice have money and often got it by being unethical and/or using illegal means.
@@nahelbeuk Only because somehow 90% of all people with money got that money without actually producing anything. Which boggles my mind. How on earth can you people value certain things as much as the food industry which is critical to keeping you alive? I seriously think the US needs to stop backing it's money with minerals and consider the food standard to back the dollar. Food should be more important than games, movies, magazines, luxury vehicles and sex (even Cronk the caveman kept his belly full despite having a harem).
Sadly, that is something people actually believe/tell themselves. We put too much stock in appearance/charisma.
The fact that Richard is incapable of actually getting away with fraud makes him seem really trustworthy.
He is a great bad example.
Lol he’s Reverse Saul Goodman
Yup ,like the way a big shark that you have seen killing people is more reassuring than one you never see but just find bits of surfers that got bit

Billy Mitchell is the BEST. The perfect villain. That haircut. The dumb ties. The totally underserved confidence. It's like they made him in a lab. And now he's exposed as a massive fraud since day 1. It's amazing.
Appriceate the conpliments kid
lets be honest, the ties are pretty fire
I honestly found it hilarious that the Pixels movie representation of him is not that exaggerated
@@augistry5439Why does he have so many American ties? In this video I noticed 2 different American flag ties and one statue of liberty tie. There was also an American flag hanky. I get the feeling he is trying to bolster his credibility by showing himself as a true patriot but as an American I am yelling "Noooo! don't drag us down with you!"
Don't forget the beard that looks painted on. 😂
I like how billy goes "if me and all of my witnesses were lying, it'd have to be some sort of conspiracy!" meanwhile 1 of his 3 witnesses has literally been convicted of conspiracy multiple times
why can't he just do it on a original hardware system cause he did cheat some how and thus didn't do it in the first place so he cannot recreate his previous records
@@raven4k998 honestly he probably _could_ have done it legit, but he had to emulate, which is cheating. Emulation can change smaller aspects, including game speed and therefore increases the ease of dodging the barrels for example.
@@theoneandonlyjim902 assuming he actually emulated it and did not just make the whole thing up for the credit🤣🤣🤣
@@raven4k998 well the gameplay is there, you can't deny that there was gameplay and it's pretty clear that it was a person playing, there is footage of the gameplay, just not footage of him _doing_ it.
Edit: Keep in mind, he most likely (I say "most likely" because I don't want billy to bullshit _me_ because you know he would if he saw this) did cheat because he didn't play on arcade hardware, and in fact, was using MODIFIED BANNED hardware, which makes him a cheater.
@@raven4k998 It's not the fact he did cheat or not. Far as anyone knows whether or not there were cheats implemented on the emulator's backend is anyone's guess.
However, he did claim it to be an original arcade score, which you cannot do if you do emulation. Which is what it all boils down to. It's not technically "cheating", as in using outside assistance, but rather cheating in words, or lies by omission. Even if he had just replaced the board for a board with an emulator in it, that's still not allowed within the rules of an acceptable claim for a score in the specific category he was doing the score for.
its probably nothing, I mean, he DOES have a nice suit...
can't argue with that, case closed.
I hope we don't find out that watch was fake.
Seems legit and fully trustworthy on that watch alone
Nice suit that comes with a lot of lawsuits
@@urip_zukoharjo lmao 😂
"It is only a small detail, but he was arrested for fraud." Took me by surprise.
To play devil's advocate here: arrested doesn't mean convicted.
Yeah Fraud 3 times? Whatevs
@@mordet2 Well you do need enough creditable evidence and witnesses to make a warrant for an arrest. Yes, it is up to the courts to decide if such evidence holds up, though of course public opinion has already eroded trust in the courts on both sides, but politics aside, seeing how he was already caught and fined for fraud three times, you don’t even need the courts to tell you that he is guilty. He is already guilty at getting caught.
@@mordet2 True, but the 1996 charges are much more straightforward: he plead guilty to conspiracy, securities fraud, money laundering, and criminal contempt in federal court. He has in fact, ADMITTED to fraud, and been accused and arrested for it several times beyond the first admission. Those accusations and arrests are not without evidence themselves, and present a highly-probable case that this man continues to commit crimes well beyond his own admissions in 1996. Kinda like that saying, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Well if you've been fooled thrice, you just don't learn.
Nice Suit
Seems Friendly
Great Quotes 😂😂😂😂
That part with the first witness broke me.
He's only accused of three things: Fraud, fraud and fraud.
THIS is what I call a trustworthy individual.
No no no ... he's not accused of fraud. That's misinformation.
He's convicted.
@@MrRolnicek...of frauds
I make it a practice not to judge someone based on their appearance. That said, you can tell a lot about a person based on how they choose to present themselves to the world. Some people ooze grace and charm, others emit confidence. Billy radiates "Slimeball energy"
Some people ooze grace and charm, and some people just ooze.
Man, he would make a great Gendo Ikari!
It's so hard to believe that Billy would lie about this.. it's so uncharacteritic of him. I mean, look at him! He's dressed so well!
There’s just no way a man with a American flag tie could cheat
@@garrett3055 Right? and look at this beard! So well trimmed and all..
@@garrett3055 Not to mention a US flag napkin. How patriotic of him to sneeze into the national symbol.
@@CZpersi More flags = more American = more trustworthy and decent. It's the law. For politicians and Billy Mitchell, wear as many stars and as many stripes as you can possibly fit on your body.
The American flag-worshipping cult looks pretty weird for people from other countries. They teach their kids to worship the thing as soon as they can speak. And it's all bullshit! Just something any sleazy dude can invoke to deflect the sleaze from his image. It shouldn't work, because it's been done so many times, but they just can't get over that childhood conditioning. They reflexively love and obey anything with their flag on. They should paint their roofs so the whole country looks like a flag on Google Earth.
Let's be honest - those ties should get him banned even if this runs had been legit...
It's absolutely disgusting that anyone wearing such a nice suit can be found guilty of fraud. The jury must be called to account.
I assume (and hope to god) that this is satire
@@Kenoboi_42 Grow up. The nice suit clearly confirms a mistrial.
It's pretty common for a criminal to wear a fancy suit, it's called congress.
@@blu3260 also a common outfit to turn up to court in
if the suit fits you must acquit 😢
This feels like a real life Ace Attorney case. Every time evidence is presented that refutes something they say, they change their story lol.
You just killed me with the “Yes/No” list 😂
I half expected him to break out the flow charts and venn diagrams
TBH that made your IQ drop about 40 points. The points made in the 'yes' column didn't mean shit. ... The guy wears a clean suit so he must be honest ?? bhahhahahahahaha yea ok mate. @karljobst
I think he was serious
@@Alex-gg9htI'm 100% sure that was a sad tire joke making it obvious that he isn't to be trusted.
I was just surprised he didn't dump on the job title. Honestly, being caught three times at fraud can you really call yourself a specialist for business growth? Makes you wonder how many times he successfully got away with it if he still is hired by people as a specialist.
I am always baffled by the fact that I have put more thought and effort into faking my parents signature on a bad behaviour notice from school when I was 9 than those idiots put into faking world record.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
Y'all I put more effort in on the signature to go to the amusement park. I wanted to throw up on a rollercoaster more than these dinguses wanted to fake a world record.
It's a product of the time and the competitive arcade scene during competitive gaming's formative years. A lot of these guys weren't doing it expecting to build a lifelong career from games or to be held to proof standards that didn't even exist yet. Have a friend who happens to be one of the only refs for your small hobby verify a score that you didn't know was impossible, fake some interviews, get printed in a few books.
It's only now that their hobby is mainstream and their lives are built around it that they have incentive to care, but it's far too late now. XD
I have never met him, but I'd bet my mortgage Billy thinks he is the smartest guy in the room. Every room. Every time.
You say that like there's a vast gulf between the two, but you have to understand that Guiness World Records are essentially a joke. Some are legitimately impressive markers of human achievement, but most of them are from folk who want bragging rights and know GWB are publishers who just want to fill books with low effort content to sell.
In the realm of video games, decades went by before there was any real rigor to documenting the veracity of records, and grifters like Mitchell rode it as long as he could... well actually a lot longer than he could, as his complete inability to let this go proves.
It's kind of a shame that he could have gone into history as a longtime early record holder with the respect that entailed, but all his efforts to hold onto that glory by cheating his way through 'defending his title' once far better players had come along, are going to doom him to a legacy as a con man, grifter, and liar.
I absolutely love that Billy Mitchell is unironically using the only man in existence who is even more of a laughing stock in the gaming community than he is as a witness to support his legitimacy. Could he be any stupider?
It's the only friends he has :'(
Him, his girlfriend and a guy who got caught with big time fraud multiple times 😂
I'm sure he'll make the situation even worse for himself. I don't know how, but he will.
This is a man almost in his 60's that still has not learned that the tie goes UNDER the vest.
This is like the worst but most comedic crossover of all time.
I’m embarrassed to say how hard I laughed during your reasons to trust/not trust list. Your delivery is amazing.
haha me too...if I were drinking something at the moment, I would have spit it out.......
@@4713Cainetake a drink every time Karl says fraud and it's a game
I was cheated against in a big tournament (different game) by an established player (i was a kid at the time). I was so discouraged I never really played competitively again.
I remember watching the King of Kong movie and relating to the poor guy that just couldn't beat billy.
Don't beat yourself up. Get up, keep practicing, and you might be the next Suigi.
Seeing Billy trying to break the world record for “Deepest Grave Ever Dug For Himself” is impressive.
he should try for the dig dug record
He might be a natural champ for Space Panic
He's also contender for "most failed lawsuits in a video game context"
Nah that record has to go to George Santos!
He's got a lot of digging if he wants to beat Wizards of the Coast/Hasbro.
The whole sarcasm around Billy's friend being trustworthy or not was pure gold
Had me in the first half ngl
Irony, not sarcasm.
@@jacobjenkins7362 That is the literal definitely of irony. Saying the opposite of what's true.
Sarcasm is irony with sardonicism, which is overt hostility.
Ironic = saying the opposite of the truth.
Sardonic = saying something with hostility.
Sarcastic = being ironic and sardonic at the same time.
You should make an effort to learn what words mean before trying to correct someone about them.
@@TrueThanny it isn't ironic to say something untrue, something is ironic when a cause seems to have the opposite effect to what was expected
@@TrueThanny Dude he's basically saying "oh man this guys is sooooo trustworthy" with a huge dose of sarcasm. Whats Ironic is he's being called up to prove the truth of this guy while he himself has been arrested for fraud multiple times.
I like how these cheaters just happens to know each other, and just happens to be so close they'd lie for each other
"It wasn't that machine we used - there was another one just out of shot." - calling it.
I feel so bad for Richard man this is so unlucky. When they go to court and deem this as another case of fraud he’s going to have a 4th case of fraud even though he’s such a nice guy who dresses nicely 😔
He even has a nice watch and inspirational quotes!
I hate Movado watches......... and this guy wears one. In Miami, this tells you everything you need to know about somebody right off the rip.
@@chrysler5thavenue822 i feel so bad for the folks working in Movado before 1983. Their pre-sale watches where nothing short of beauty, now they are just an insult to the name.
Perfect pfp pic for the comment. I can see mob saying this about one of regens friends if nkt Regen himself.
On the positive side he will have the WR for that
hearing more about Billy Mitchell is like watching an endless Ace Attorney case and I'm all here for it
someone needs to make this whole case into an objection . lol
The Billy Mitchell saga still isn't as long as Rise From The Ashes from Ace Attorney 1
Especially when he showed the photo and pointed at the stick, it was like after you used the pointer on the DS when you had to find a contradiction on a picture lol
“So, Mr. Mitchell. You say you play on unmodified hardware?”
“Correct.”
“Then tell me… What’s with this arcade stick?”
“…!”
“The unmodified arcade stick is black, and goes in four directions. A modified one is red and goes in eight!”
“T-that’s-“
“A contradiction.”
I swear, This is a moment in one of the games where Larry Butz says 'For ONCE I got evidence,' and twists the entire case on its head.
Never thought I'd see the day where Ace Attorney is becoming more believable by the hour.
Imagine the poor judge who has to oversee these proceedings...."This is what my professional life has come to"
Some crimes are actually solved by seemingly insignificant details. I bet there has to be some criminal that was caught because his shoelace was too long or something. the stick being the wrong color might be huge when millions of dollars are in line
Karl's backhanded examining of Richard's character is beautiful.
It's always nice seeing bad people being proven wrong.

Just a minor nitpick I think. Around '84 a friend and myself bought arcade joysticks in Australia from the company that supplied and did maintenance on most of the local arcade machines so we could make our own for our ZX Spectrums. We also bought some buttons but they didn't have the matching concave ones in stock. I specifically wanted the stick from the classic early '80s machines with the shiny metal shaft and coloured ball on top, so like the original DK one and not like the red one in the photo. There wasn't a 4-way stick and an 8-way stick. The stick had four microswitches, but it also had several escutcheons that could be changed. There was a 2-way escutcheon I think, as well as a 4-way and 8-way one. Basically it was cut like a line, a plus-sign, or a plus sign plus the diagonals. You could only move the stick where the escutcheon fitted was cut away. Also there was a movable round plate covering it. What this means is that you can't tell from a picture if the stick can move 2, 4, or 8 ways. You have to see what escutcheon is fitted or you have to move the stick around and feel where it lets you move it.
I'm not defending Mitchell and the red stick looks like one from later machines than the original DK. But I'm not agreeing that a stick can "look like an 8-way stick" in a photo.
Good point. ALL evidence, possibilities and theories should be considered. It's the only option if you're legitimately trying to find the Truth.
edit: A good example is that I dislike Alec Baldwin... but I KNOW for a FACT that the gun Could have Fired without him pulling the trigger, because I know precisely how the gun works and how different malfunctions can happen. Even before the FBI stating that the gun was in working condition, Many, Many (nearly all) people I heard talk about it said it was Absolutely Impossible for the gun to have fired without him pulling the trigger.p The truth though is that Alec Baldwin, even if a prick, has the Right to be presumed innocent until Proven guilty (beyond any doubt that he could be innocent)... and I could PROVE that the gun Could Have fired without the trigger being pulled by Baldwin himself and also that the gun Could Have been intentionally (or even unintentionally) rigged to fire when he pulled the hammer back without pulling the trigger... and then "unrigged" after the fact. It could be proven true or false with supporting evidence (like video)... but without other significant evidence, the possibility exists and so does the reasonable doubt. I just don't think he's going to be convicted of anything (for other reasons also) unless he takes a plea deal, which I think they will offer him a good one. Forgive the rant. I tend to do that when I speak of things I believe to be true (or in some cases Know) to be true.
good input, but since the case here is that he wasnt playing on unmodified hardware, this evidence is still damning
@@deucedeuce1572 He doesn't have to be proven guilty beyond all shadow of a doubt, he only has to be proven beyond all REASONABLE doubt. The events you described are not reasonable. I would hit him with a guilty verdict if I was on the jury even if you can prove that.
@@deucedeuce1572 What video did you watch?
I like this, because it's one time where minor, nitpicky things can actually be talked about as big, impotant revelations and actually not sound silly. It's a case where a different shaped joystick can actually justify being called someting that destroys (in clickbaiting all-caps) someone.
The only thing that could possibly make this worse for Billy is if he falsely sued people, say, a youtuber (twice), for defamation for reporting his confirmed cheating and they could now use this as proof in said lawsuits. But that would just be completely stupid and he'd never do something so underhanded. 🤣🤣🤣
At that point Karl could probably countersue for some sort of harassment claim
@@10thletter40 Nah.
@@10thletter40 Nah, not in America
@@hermanhuge6109 He's Australian though
Oof...good thing he's not THAT stupid!! I mean that would be just terrible 🤣
Fun Fact: Lying in a sworn statement is consider perjury, which in California (where this lawsuit is taking place) is considered a Felony.
They might have plausible deny ability in saying they didn't KNOW it wasn't unmodified and otherwise claiming they lacked the technical knowledge of those items... but if they certified that they KNEW it was "unmodified"... yeah they might be fucked either way.
[giddy with excitement noises]
Perjury is illegal in all states...
@Bob Bobert considering that rod togers is there and he considers himself an expert in games and their hardware, there is no possible defense to make for him. He claims to know everything about arcades and is a self certified "expert" so him claiming this to be an original arcade and it being proven not to be is nothing but proof he lied. He can't claim to not know it was unmodified.
Perjuring yourself in service to some washed up has-been is very legal and very cool, okay?
I find it impossible to believe that such a case like this really keeps on going. It’s like a soap opera that keeps on getting more interesting until it reaches the culminating episodes

Maybe it was because reality was so much more of a sham than what kok made it look like.

Just for anyone wondering he sells Rickey's World Famous Hot Sauce, and a successful businesses Rickey's restaurants in Hollywood, Florida, and Pembroke Pines, Florida
Good to see such a nice humble honest man like Billy have such a successful business
Whether he said it or not is irrelevant. If it was something that could make Billy win a lawsuit, he would be able to win it against Karl for repeating it. Karl is getting absolutely TERRIBLE advice from his lawyers. Or he is ignoring him since he isn't paying for them. But any lawyer who has ever passed the bar exam would be telling Karl to SHUT THE FUCK UP until this all blows over. Doesn't matter if he will win eventually, it is all going to cost him money. Money that he is likely never going to get back. Even IF the judge orders Billy to pay his legal fees, Karl will be just one of many that will be waiting to collect from Billy...and will never get anywhere near the full amount.

He could have wrote a book about it.
Competitive gamings best cheater.
his ego prevents that
@@chrissheppo meanwhile in another timeline people are lining up to get the best video game cheats autograph and buying his book about how he almost got away with it
Karl did a great video. HOWEVER there is one major problem with his argument.
The replacement joystick may not be original to the cabinet, BUT we do not actually KNOW if the Joystick is 4 way or 8 way based on the photos alone. All we know is that it's not original. But could still meet the required specifications of being a 4 way stick.
Let me explain. Arcade machines used in arcades require constant repair and maintenance. Arcade manufacturers stop making replacement parts for arcade machines after a few years.
Arcade owners are sometimes forced to use replacement "third party" parts to keep the games running. These parts may not always look original, but still meet the required specifications. For example, a different looking third party 4 way joystick for Donkey King. Or replacement buttons for an arcade machine. Or a different monitor. Etc.
Twin Galaxies allows world records as long as the replacement parts used in the arcade machines meet the original specifications.
If your argument is that arcade machine must be 100% original parts, then that's simply not possible. These arcade machines are used hard, and be will be guaranteed to have SOMETHING replaced during their lifetime of usage. Third party companies exist to make parts to keep these machines running. Whether it's replacement joysticks, replacement buttons, replacement monitors, replacement wiring, replacement power supplies, etc.
If your requirement is 100% original parts, then you would have to disqualify HUNDREDS of records on Twin Galaxies. Because they are being played on machines that use replacement third party parts.
I have personally watched at least a dozen videos on Twin Galaxies where I noticed the arcade machine was not using original parts due to the age of the machine. But the record was still accepted.
So unfortunately your argument about parts not being original doesn't work. These machines always have some replacement parts. And getting Original Parts can not always be used. But third party replacement parts (that still meet match original specs) can be used for repairs.
@@TheBigExclusive I think you missed the point where the whole basis for his defense is that they were played on unmodified original Donkey Kong Hardware, doesn't matter if the replacement was done because of maintenance reasons, he still lied and those photos completely destroys his defense.
@@TheBigExclusive It doesn't matter, once it's been swapped out it no longer counts.
The fact it's probably an 8-way is just an extra kick to the teeth.

I've come back and watched this video in it's entirety 3 times since it was posted, I love it so much.
I will never get tired of Karl's dry humor. "No one who dresses this nice would lie."
ikr? Classic Karl!
When I first heard that while cooking I was like "duh fuk...?" Then realized what he was doing 😂😂
I'm starting to think Billy is more special than he says he is... I demand to know the size of the school bus he rode to school!
Lol I read this comment and can just picture Phoenix Wright saying this as he slams his hands on desk and objects
That trustworthy or not bit killed me. 😆
I like how one of the biggest tells of liars is the tactic of “my lie isn’t a lie because if it was a lie then that means it had to have been as big of a lie as this massive conspiracy, and that’s just ridiculous.”
Apparently "a bunch of people saw me do it" is both a claim, evidence, and an argument all at the same time. Win every argument with this one simple trick.
Sounds like a lot of things going on lately lol
late stage liarism
It would be nice if someone did a similar video using the George Bush senior confession of the JFK assassination ;-) It was available on youtube last time I checked. It's some funeral speech that was broadcasted on national TV. Where he can't contain his laughter when he talks about it.
It's the lie of the narcissist. They can't stop the urge to inflate the importance and scope of the thing they're lying about.
It's so funny how people with a character like Billy always go "It's a conspiracy" when somebody is trying to prove them wrong
Like Andrew tate. He knew he was going down so he preemptively told people “the matrix will get me” and people bought it

Nice to see how this whole Story plays out well for you after all this years. Go on and have a great time. Greetings from Germany.
The fact that Richard has been busted by the feds for fraud multiple instances yet could still attend a Florida mortgage brokers convention while having pull to host a random Donkey Kong exhibition for a childhood friend says a lot about Florida and mortgage brokers.
A mortgage brokers convention in 2007 of all years too...
From now on, I am expecting another hilarious "Do I trust this guy" segment in every video. Thank you.
“Fraud again” hahaha
Not even on a different person, it’s just on Richard again
Watching Billy melt into a puddle because he can no longer sue for defamation is going to be absolutely hilarious
No, he'll explode just like in that episode from regular show

Your deadpan delivery in the YES and NO column for trustworthiness part of your video is priceless.
I would love to see Billy unaware of these photos and the defense do exactly what was done to Alex Jones with the texts he didn't know the defense has. Unfortunately, I'm sure they would have to surface in discovery and so not much chance of Billy entering the court room without knowing about them.
Rest in peace TH-camr Apollo Legend, your legacy bringing attention to Billy's cheating will come to light.

So he pulled off a record at a mortgage brokers convention? In a place where probably only a handful off people ever heard of the game Donkey Kong. What a genius place to pull off a world record.
I am so happy that these things are popping up. I remember that "play a tape" thingie ... that made me so angry.

I love your sarcastic summary of what Richard got up to in the trustworthiness segment.
Legendary that was lmao
He had me going for a sec. Great deadpan.
his name in his year book was "the duck"
Pros: faint praise with some stealth jabs
Cons: THREE ACCOUNTS OF FRAUD
That was probably for legal purposes >.>
his body language in the photos illustrates his discomfort. he was actually situating himself to block line of sight of the joystick
He failed to tho. Lol I can't wait to see him get destroyed in court and cry himself to sleep with how much money he lost.
I love the fact that this finally came out. I remember the documentary about him sending the tape in.
It's legitimately mind blowing that someone went this far just to say they got a high score in a video game.
Ikr.... It's kinda pathetic
It's essentially his only legacy so... Ya, sad.
@anonomaly if only he just stuck to hot sauce. I hear it's pretty okay at least, and I for one would be proud to be a hot sauce king
All big gamers cheat, your fools.
Id imagine the motivation is that there's money that can be made from this title
Mitchell is a genuine videogame villain. I mean anyone who dyes his hair black and models its shape after Darth Vader's black helmet, is definitely a villain.
He's more like Team Rocket than Darth Vader, honestly. Vader brought order to the galaxy by choking the shit out of it. Billy Mitchell can't stop self-owning. "Prepare for lawsuit! And make it prosecute! To protect Billy Mitchell from castration! Cheating at Donkey Kong our vocation!"
But then again, he dresses up pretty nice, so he seems pretty credible to me
Team Rocket! Oh man, that's hilarious, dude!
@@Heike-- yeah he is such a james from team rocket, good call🤙🏽🇦🇺
And don't forget his 1.309 american flag neckties ( I don't wanna think he has just 1)
Imagine being almost 60 years old and still trying to prove to everyone that you beat a high score in an arcade game.
Thanks Karl. Every time I see a Donkey Kong cabinet flash on the screen now you have me pausing/rewinding to check its stick.
There is no way this dude compared cheating in a game to getting assassinated 😭😭
That made me double-take. Real classy guy, that one.
Well, more to performing an assassination.
Ego so big that being accused of cheating feels like you're part of a national tragedy.
Bros over here trying to take people's life savings over donkey kong and tries to make other people look bad 😂
To be fair, he didn't compare his persecution to the Holocaust. I wouldn't have been surprised though...
This is nonsarcastically some of the strangest IRL lore. He has zero proof of himself setting any record yet has (very successfully) devoted his life to this. Quite a successful con expert truly
That’s what I was thinking, like so what if he loses his lawsuit and is banned he still had 30+ years making a living off the scam
Well, at least he has a credible friend, presented factually and objectively. Nice suit, good motivation memes, and what really convinced me was he just seems really friendly. All attributes that the milk man had, who ended up being my real dad all this time.
Why say IRL lore and not just history lol. Yeah I always thought he at least had evidence that he even played the game past eye witness testimony ,but from this I'm amazed he is as well known as he is.
@@SlasherVillain because IRL lore is funnier, and it's the kind of thing that someone who gets invited to parties would say which explains why you don't get it

Might be a 4 way restrictor plate on that unoriginal stick but at this point who knows.
Doesn't matter. It's still not original arcade hardware.
I like to imagine that billy has notifications enabled for your uploads and whenever you upload a video about him, he calls his lawyer over to watch it together with him
That's just wholesome right there.
Given that he launched another lawsuit on Karl for including the, "that's right, we're gonna cheat," clip in one of his vids, I honestly don't doubt it.
His favorite part is when Karl calls him a legend.
Nah he calls over his mom so he can cry in her lap.
I don't think so, because he's clearly not good at taking legal advice. I think he just sends it via text or email.
If you're gonna put fraud multiple times in the 'trust this guy' list then by that logic you'd have to put an extra entry for every time he wore a different Nice Suit. Considering how often he has been to court I'm betting he wore tonnes of different suits, so the reasons to trust would greatly outnumber the reasons not to.
This scans.
Damn true, Karl’s defaming the poor guy
I bet he only wears suits. Such a baller.
Lol, he strikes you as someone who actually attended court? I doubt it.
@@TehRebolthow dare he?

Absolutely destroyed. I broke when you put up the trust column. Well played sir.
I like to imagine how the judge and lawyers probably think this is the stupidest thing to be tying up the court system with, but at the same time have to treat it as seriously as any other case.
Someone getting money from others based on a lie, and a lifetime of it at that, is as serious as any other theft of the same total.

"Nice suit" had me rolling 😂
Also at 6:20 "nice watch" -- not really, that's a cheaper Movado. By comparison, a canonical "nice watch" that people might think of, a Rolex, would cost at least 20X more.
I met Billy Mitchell once 10 years ago. I was with a friend at an event and my friend wanted a picture with Billy and I didn’t but Billy INSISTED I get in the photo.

The "Should I Trust This Guy" portion had me rolling. Thanks for that. 🤣
Everyone here knows about the Cartoon Network parody of Billy Mitchell, rite?
Turns out, there's an episode of "Bones" that revolves around a fictional 1980s coin-op game ("Punky Pong") at the center of a murder investigation involving an embittered championship gamer ("Billy Maybell") who was trying to win back his record-holding status after his world record high score on Punky Pong was broken by the murder victim. Two things about the episode stand out:
- The "Billy Maybell" character not only has a name that sounds suspiciously like "Billy Mitchell" ... he also wears a white dress shirt w/ a US flag-themed necktie.
- The titular character, Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan, discovers a crucial clue when she notices that the videotaped footage of the murder victim's world record shows a Punky Pong cabinet that has a small but unmistakable difference from the machine that is prominently on public display as the actual arcade machine on which the new world record score was achieved -- meaning that the murder victim cheated!
This not only is an example of TV show scripts being "ripped from the headlines", it also qualifies as "life imitating art" in an unexpected way.... 🤔
I like how you split the chart 50/50 so you don't run into the risk of a potential defamation case from them lol. Very clever and funny
It's not defamation if it's verifiably true.

I always love Karl's implementation of humor, it's always pretty subtle and tasteful and doesnt overshadow the topic. But the "Trust This Guy?" skit was above and beyond hilarious for a channel that is not primarily about humor.
I cackled gleefully
That's exactly how I felt. I clicked this NOT expecting to laugh so damn hard.
For real. 😭
It's the trust this guy skit that now has me worrying if this video was another joke video like his "Coming Clean" video from last year or if it's legit and he was just too heavy handed with the humor of that joke.
@@dpray96 How are you confused about that? Seriously? Truly? There’s no way someone is actually questioning this because of a small skit featured in the video. That’s ridiculous. It was satirical. Move on.
They need to change the securities fraud laws. If this guy keeps doing it then either he isn’t paying them, or he’s making more money doing it than it costs him in penalties.
Hahaha the bit about the columns about Richard Mallion is hysterical.
the passive aggressive tear-down of Billy’s friend Richard was hilarious
I couldn't tell if he was joking or not for half of it 😭
That's how you avoid frivolous lawsuits, but still call the liars out lol.
What do you mean "tear down" ?
The final result was 3/3. It seemed pretty even :)
Oh it was only 3 white collar crimes he got censured for. Nothing big there :P
How does Billy Mitchell have money for all of these lawsuits?
He inherited some crummy sports bar in Florida.

@@anonony9081 who keeps buying this guy's sauce?

He could always claim he hadn't realized the machine was modified, but then how would he explain not noticing the fact that he had control he wouldn't normally have during the entire play session?
Karl did a great video. HOWEVER there is one major problem with his argument.
The replacement joystick may not be original to the cabinet, BUT we do not actually KNOW if the Joystick is 4 way or 8 way based on the photos alone. All we know is that it's not original. But could still meet the required specifications of being a 4 way stick.
Let me explain. Arcade machines used in arcades require constant repair and maintenance. Arcade manufacturers stop making replacement parts for arcade machines after a few years.
Arcade owners are sometimes forced to use replacement "third party" parts to keep the games running. These parts may not always look original, but still meet the required specifications. For example, a different looking third party 4 way joystick for Donkey King. Or replacement buttons for an arcade machine. Or a different monitor. Etc.
Twin Galaxies allows world records as long as the replacement parts used in the arcade machines meet the original specifications.
If your argument is that arcade machine must be 100% original parts, then that's simply not possible. These arcade machines are used hard, and be will be guaranteed to have SOMETHING replaced during their lifetime of usage. Third party companies exist to make parts to keep these machines running. Whether it's replacement joysticks, replacement buttons, replacement monitors, replacement wiring, replacement power supplies, etc.
If your requirement is 100% original parts, then you would have to disqualify HUNDREDS of records on Twin Galaxies. Because they are being played on machines that use replacement third party parts.
I have personally watched at least a dozen videos on Twin Galaxies where I noticed the arcade machine was not using original parts due to the age of the machine. But the record was still accepted.
So unfortunately your argument about parts not being original doesn't work. These machines always have some replacement parts. And getting Original Parts can not always be used. But third party replacement parts (that still meet match original specs) can be used for repairs.
@@TheBigExclusive Up until 2018 Twin Galaxies was perfectly happy having world records on file so long as Todd Rogers said they were legit, regardless of any sort of proof. I have no problem with arcade machines not having factory default parts, so long as the replacements are within the standard of exactly what the originals were capable of, but Twin Galaxies hardly has the most stringent requirements to prove your score to get into their records, and quite frankly the speed runners themselves typically have more expertise than anybody working for them. The argument is entirely valid if somebody can prove that it is an 8-way joystick.
Dude I thoroughly enjoy your vids. Keep them coming. :-D
