    Well done indeed. If we don't actively pursue these people, they will continue to get away with it, which is frustrating as hell for any content creator.

    I have watched some of these videos now. They're really cringy. Looks like he took one of the pictures Draker used to post here as thumbnail. According to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSW8jua8gH4 the accident from a few back with the 2 guys in EN was due to narcosis and 'cave divers' want EN to be closed...
    The video also features Draker, Ken and other people on this board with pictures. I wonder where he gets these stories from. I hope he is not on here to do 'research'.

    It looks like he is monetizing eyeballs by paying for deep research, editing, and even professional narration. Unfortunately, the videos mispresent common misconceptions as "facts" unjustly eroding further the public's perception of cave diving. If only he were a cave diver and had the best interest of the sport at heart, his work could have been valuable. As it stands, the guy is just another manifestation of the parasitic influencer/listoid culture menace.

    Maybe we should all go on and dislike the videos.
    I think that affects how you-tube monetizes them.

    Not sure if you're kidding or not. He uses an auto-reader. It's not a person that's narrating, it's an website. All he does is copying text into auto reader and cuts up videos he steals form people like barney... it's really low rent. I doubt he's paying anyone, certainly not for research. It's a good example of how crappy most of alternative media is. All the conspiracy stuff online is basically made the same way. Clueless people with a laptops and lots of spare time.
