Also a ’kneecap’ flew off during the front flip and a bit from its foot when it landed.

Logan Paul level of annoying.

22

u/Huge-Income3313 17h ago

What makes Logan truly evil is:

1) Japanese police said the dead body was fake & the incident was a staged prank

2) YouTube knew it was fake, manually put the video on trending & punished people who criticized Logan

3) Logan hired Kim Kardashian's Fame strategist Sheeraz Hasan who is known for faking controversies to make people famous from hate, the Japan incident was a staged Hollywood publicity stunt designed to make Logan super famous.

4) Sheeraz owns LA paparazzi which is why Logan was posing for paparazzi, appearing on the news & doing preplanned paparazzi interviews during the incident. They were aggressively pushing his name & controversy to the entire world

5) Anybody who exposed the Japan incident as fake had their channels striked & videos removed for up to 5 years after the incident, including tiny channels with small followings

6) At the time of Logan's Japan incident, YouTube released their own YouTube Originals show called "Do You Want To See a Dead Body?".. You can Google this right now, I'm not making this up.

You spent a lot of time on something that isn’t even relevant to this conversation

Never underestimate how much some people fucking hate Logan Paul.

How is that truly evil? That’s marketing and sad but not evil

u/Jak2828 10h ago

Exploiting the tragedy of suicide in such a carefully preplanned way is evil imo, in particular compared to the public's impression of the event. Filming it in the moment because you spontaneously ran into it and then not thinking about how bad it is and posting it? Dumb, irresponsible, tone deaf etc but maybe not evil, but the preplanning of the whole event escalates the evil factor quite a lot

This was my first reaction too on seeing him the first time. But this dude while annoying (obviously for entertainment) is a good bloke at least so far.

No way this is CGI. There is a hd video from the dancing part with iShowSpeed.

u/brownpoops 17h ago

nobody is saying that.

u/Girofox 4h ago

Many still say that, look under my post for example.

u/axw3555 3h ago

It may not be CGI, but until I see something like this in person, I'm sceptical that it's wholly genuine.

1

u/Girofox 3h ago

I agree it looks uncanny, too fluid movement. Maybe because the weight is so low compared to Boston Dynamics. But Optimus robots looks uncanny too.

1

u/axw3555 3h ago

Certainly could be that. There’s just something that gives me a “somethings a touch off there” feeling.

Like part of my initial instinct was that there was a degree of support when it jumps, wires or similar (not saying there is, but that’s where my mind immediately went).

u/brownpoops 17h ago

this clearly isn't cgi. This is the best they got. it's terrible lol

u/Business-Plastic5278 7h ago

He is currently the worlds greatest 'over excited reaction' guy.

And given the current meta, that means that yeah, he gets a stupid amount of eyeballs on him.

Id be fascinated to hear what he got paid for this China trip.

u/kittrcz 13h ago

I don’t know what’s this black guy’s name is, but I have seen a ton of videos where he behaves like complete and utter moron. Can someone calm me down by confirming that he doesn’t have millions of teenage followers?

2

u/Business-Plastic5278 6h ago

Not millions, more like 10s of millions.

This idiot interacting with a robot like this shows me that it is useless.  I would prefer to see it helping an elderly person but they have it dancing and getting bullied

u/brownpoops 17h ago

Now y'all realize those other videos WERE cgi... This is the best they have to offer.

u/aash_san 19h ago

While it's not CGI the video is edited if you watch the feet of the robot carefully as it starts stumbling before it falls. The robot's feet suddenly move forward and the obnoxious guys position is slightly different. It's a video cut.

Look while it's not CGI the performance is greatly exaggerated, you can't make the argument it's amazing when it falls on its back and parts break off. If a company lies about that, do you really think the rest of the content is as presented?

u/Bullumai 14h ago

The livestream was five hours long, with him going all around Shenzhen. You might as well wear a tinfoil hat at this point. There are witnesses, people following him—it would require unbelievable orchestration involving thousands of people. He was also responding to what people in the chat were saying throughout the stream and thanking donors live, etc. But at the end of the day, when people try hard enough to convince themselves of something, they can always find a way to make it seem plausible that what they want to believe is true.

Dude is literally not looking directly at it when he’s looking at it. This is not even great cgi

u/Halkenguard 20h ago

I don’t like him but this is absolutely not CGI. This robot is made by EngineAI, one of the top robotics companies in China.
