videos like sewer fishing or abandoned pet stores are a huge problem on youtube that needs to stop
source
All of the fish they show aren't moving… They are obviously dead. I wouldn't be surprised if they're reusing the same dead fish for multiple of these videos, then just getting more from petsmart or FB marketplace once they start rotting. I hope they've been banned from local pet stores.
Please report this man
I haven't even finished the video but the fish he finds isn't even in the same water parameters
Some are literally salt water mixed with fresh
Call the police
6:29 is a brochus splendens(the emerald corydora) and ive worked with them the last decade to create a fungal resistant fish as they get fungal infection from any amount of stress. That corydora is definitely dead. Fuck, this guy sucks.
I've said time and time again, this guy gets nowhere near the amount of hate he deserves.
One thing to consider is that some of these channels may be using these fake rescue vids to bolster claims they are operating a legitimate organization in order to obtain exotic animal permits.
Wow that’s sick. What a pathetic loser…
Ah, yes, release a non-native animal into the one state of America that has been crawling with various invasive species for years. Surely Florida's wildlife control won't immediately hunt you down, carve your ass out and feed it to you.
Horrible. I went to his channel and reported one of his most popular videos for animal cruelty. It's sick Youtube lets these kind of people do this. Relevant authorities should be notified.
I've reported this kind of thing but they do nothing about it. There is some dude with a phone videoing some poor animal, then someone rushing in to save the day. In reality I think they are the ones that hurt the animal to pretend to save it. It really pisses me off and I turned off their damn shorts where most of this seems to be. They don't give a damn about these poor animals, YT that is. Should be brought up on allowing animal abuse.
I own axolotls and i just want to puke at him handling and talking about those poor angels 😭
I reporter his channel hopefully YouTube will do their damm job.
This stuff is rampant on Facebook, and it's mostly ai generated slop
Those Chinese videos you see on tiktok where they rescue a cat from a pipe or something are the same setups.
Reported
This Kid needs the belt!💯
How do people fall for obviously faked videos like that? What a dumb world we live in
Its so easy to find, look at the type of videos they upload and there you have it, its all animal rescue and then you realize just how rare that is in your day to day life. Obviously he is hurting animals to then make a fake video about rescuing them. I hate these kind of people.
Critical thinking skills have clearly not been the top priority in schools for some time. I would say that it should be impossible to not figure out that its all fake, if people spent like half a second to think.
YT promotes this guy's weird channel super agressively. I've seen most of these thumbnails/video titles repeatedly in my recommendations, although I've never clicked on any of them. 😩
What about the ones that have been dumped out the back of shops. Stopped watching him a while back along with the fish guys.
I can’t watch anything related to animal abuse. I’m so sorry. It’s because it disgusts me the most. I did hype your video and updoot it. This comment for engagement. But many thanks to those who speak out against animal abuse.
At 2.23, That's a blob fish. Odd looking creature, isn't it?
How are people actually falling for this.
His videos are real you know
I’m really enjoying your content so far bud👍
Isn't there usually enough chlorine to kill pretty much any living thing except for humans in swimming pools? lol Pretty close to finding a fish on the side of the road.
5:09 a real twink using a real twinky zoomie flashlight. One drop in the pond and that thing is fucked forever 😂
LOL LEFT TO DIE?
"I just found this abandoned storage unit that is filled with animals that have been left here to die. So, my mission is to explore all of it to hopefully save every single animal that's been abandoned here. However, it's not gonna be easy."
"I just found this abandoned pet store that is filled with animals that have been left here to die. And since the store closed down, no one has been taking care of them, and they don't have a lot of time left."
"I just found this abandoned pool that is filled with monster fish. And well, my goal is to catch out every single one of them from this abandoned pool. Because there's also a bunch of extremely rare and expensive fish in here that are gonna die if we don't hurry up and save them."
Psychopaths always have massive followings
You would think that the whole phony sounding Mr. Beast act would have gotten stale by now.
To be fair with agression like snakeheads that kinda shock from enviroment change tends to chill them out they aint intrested in fighting. We would mix species into accilmation boxes that in a tank would massacare eachother but due to the shipping and then new water mixed with the bag water and the sudden light change they ignore eachother so the snakeheads probably never attacked anything in that puddle.
mans got marine fish mixed with fresh water and you know weirdly enough all those fresh water could be housed together in a big aquarium in an african themed tank apart from the snakehead obviously. I dont doubt he just emptyed his like 600L tank into that drain and then threw in a handful of marine fish for content since they will survive fresh water for maybe an hour.
Thank you for exposing this guy Scott. You are doing great work as always 👍
What a scab hopefully Karma Darwin chatches up with him.
Ppl have been trained to consume dont think dont ask questions.
He has the voice, as annoying as it is, and a face for TV. He's convincing, despite being a huge deceiver…and worst, one who deceives children.
It's nice to know fresh water and salt water fish can live together in harmony (in a sewer)
Let me show you how I rescued this STRAY cat (really my cat) by boating into the middle of a lake, putting it in the water, letting it swim 100' while I drive my boat in a half circle while filming it and claim to just randomly find said cat as I pull it back into the boat. Aren't i the hero!
This is why i refuse to have conversations with optic driven humans. Too stupid to think critically, just the way our rich overlords want them to be
I'm 7 minutes in. I don't know sh!t about aquatic animals BUT…I do know this many species don't just cohabitate in the wild.
Its pathetic how people like this with no sense of morals or shame exist in this world.
Its cringe and a blight on the human race
Brain rot fake videos like these unfortunately will always exist because there are so many dumb gullible people in the world who watch it and cannot think for themselves
Major red flag is when youtubers start so many videos with the same line…
He sounds so gleefully happy about sentencing those snakehead fish to death
It is like those channels that want you to think they found a turtle covered in gunk and trash and show themselves cleaning it. They glue the stuff on and use knives to pry it off. Harming animals to make money is disgusting as it is, but to portray yourself as a good person is even worse.
Is he pulling the same fish from the mud puddle as the sewer? The snakehead looks the same.
Saltwater and freshwater fish wouldn't live in the same water. Ever. He pulls clownfish out from the same water as plecos and cichlids… Clownfish are salt water, pleco are fresh. He pulls out angelfish too.
It's clear he buys these animals or takes free ones from online listings to torture them.
I'm only 1:11 in and I know he's a fake with that dumb af "Hey Guys!" youtuber Douchbag voice.
