Storror, a UK parkour collective. Amazingly talented, made an unbelievable documentary about doing parkour on the rooftops of Asia. I still watch every week but they've done parkour like once in the last 3 months. Everything else is

• We climbed this weird building
• Can we escape from this pit?
• We wrapped ourselves in bubble wrap
• Stuck in a hollow tree!!

Then there are "water challenges", ie fairly easy jumps but you fall in a canal if you miss. One guy already had a career ending injury doing this and is now a camera man, another hurt himself badly and you can tell he's lost patience with it.

Anyone noticed recent Linus O'Tech Tips thumbnails have him giving the same rictus-like grin of the Abomination (Mr Beast)?

H3h3

@ericbomb I used to watch a YouTuber called Skip the Tutorial, and he would make these challenge run videos, such as Punch Out Wii without dodging. This later extended to modded Minecraft runs, and this led to the whole channel just becoming Minecraft trivia videos since these came out during a massive nostalgia boom for the game. Sometimes I look back to see if he’s made any more challenge runs, but nope.

I follow a channel called MightyCarMods that recently bought into a trend of cheap vs expensive parts, but it seems like it was just something they tried because they've gone back to their old format of multi part car builds

How about the ones that seem to have just fucking quit? Barely Sociable popped up, produced a bunch of pretty cool videos, and has just fucking disappeared. Same with Fredrick Knudsen or however you spell the name of the "Down The Rabbit Hole" guy. Apparently some noise about making a 5 hour video followed by months of radio silence. Like my dude...break that up into parts.

Enterelysium used to be one of my favourite youtubers for playing stuff like From the Depths but he lost his way to the algorithm and now just seems to play whatevers new and trending.

Every YouTuber who starts catering to 10-15yos.

I miss you, GrayStillPlays.

Damn YIAY taking over for YGS.

PushingUpRoses doesn't do gaming content much anymore, practically every video she uploads is about Murder She Wrote or sometimes other old daytime TV, and I'm just not into it. If it's working for her more power to her but I guess I'm her "old audience."

Vsauce went from a kinda smarmy gaming channel to that kind of smug "look at a bunch of random smart things that ultimately don't matter" show, then stopped uploading regular episodes for awhile and instead created some long-form ready for television crap on Youtube Red or whatever that subscription-only service that failed was, and then kinda puttered out.

The Modern Rogue has done a lot to make it difficult to be a subscriber of theirs, and both the quality and quantity of uploads has gone downhill. They're apparently still at it, but I dunno man.

And a whole bunch of 'em just don't upload anymore.
