He also burned the fuck out of his head not long ago by doing something silly.
Still love his videos tho.

I agree this idea is silly and unnecessary (as he acknowledges himself), but it’s done safely. He’s done many projects more dangerous than this.

I don’t know why you’re giving him that credit; he’s almost killed himself once already.

I’d give him credit for explaining (frequently) how dangerous what he is doing is… and frankly his willingness to quite literally showcase what the result of the badness can be.
Too few channels do either. And there’s some wildly dangerous shit posted daily that is over-edited and rarely even touches on the very real dangers of what they showcase. It gives the illusion of safety to people who likely don’t understand the science / risks.

So? He is a hobbyist who documents his projects, he isnt advocating that people do all the same stuff he does. People have accidents all the time, it doesnt negate their intelligence.
