00:00If you want to get a good idea what it's like to make videos you get a close-up of that right there
00:06That's the video making experience
00:09Usually I just say I'm a youtuber and people people you oh you like watching YouTube videos, and I'm like no
00:14I'm like one of those guys that makes them the way that we're now
00:18Watching our news and our entertainment online
00:22It's the most important change that's ever happened to media in my lifetime. You don't have to like shoot for six months
00:29You don't have to hire a bunch of individuals
00:31You just do what you want to do when you want to do it people ask me like when did things begin to change?
00:36And it all happened at once
00:40It was all just like this giant boom, I'm just a guy from Ohio
00:43I still don't know what it was what I did that made everybody stick around like you kind of become attached to almost addicted to
00:52The numbers get more views get more people clicking your ads you're gonna make more money. It's as simple as that
00:57I think it's kind of a loner thing
01:00But that's why I like it some people that don't like that they need to be around people to thrive five years ago
01:06I was sleeping on my floor and stealing my neighbor's Wi-Fi
01:10Going to soup kitchens and things like that
01:12It was about to sell my computer because I had no clue how I was gonna pay the next rent
01:19Ironic these people that have thousands and thousands of people who love them are some of the most lonely people
01:26I think they still probably assume
01:27It's just like a fun hobby that I do and I'm actually a mechanic or something
01:32YouTube is cool in the sense that I don't have to have anybody else have their hands in the creative process
01:39It is so new and it always weird to think like I could do this for the rest of my life because no one's done
01:45It for the rest of their life. This community is an amazing community in the things that can happen. I can't even put it in words
01:51It's just awesome
01:52It changed my life
01:55It becomes more about the game of YouTubing than the art of making something really creative and cool
