Ladies with gentle hands, LARPing has become a very big thing in the big 2k26.
2
And it appears apparently that I indeed do have some LARPers.
3
And today we're going to be going in and analysing
4
which ones have the best LARP and why they shouldn't be doing this.
5
Psych!
6
Massive plot twist guys.
7
Although people may be impersonating my intros similar to this video here, which I'm gonna run through a bunch of them.
8
Hey YouTube, it's me again.
9
Mayday, we're going down!

18
Don't really seem to like that people are copying me.
19
Pixelman, where are you?
20
Pixelman!
21
We're on!
22
We're on!
23
The car crashed and the we're on, right?
24
It's crazy to see, right?
25
And a lot of people are getting really angry at me because I haven't done anything about it.
26
And guys, you want to know something crazy?
27
Is that I was actually the LARPA all along.
28
Indeed.
29
On the day, the fateful day, I uploaded this video after uploading many Fortnite daily videos in a row.
30
My friend showed me a video the day I uploaded Remember Who You Are, White Boy.
31
As you can see here, we've got a beautiful little thumbnail transition.
32
Remember who you are white boy.
33
The transition tweaker, you know, with the car crash, that coming in.
34
No foxy added here yet.
35
So this is OG me right?
36
That's me like literally only about a month and a half ago.
37
Um, my friend showed me a video.
38
French Quarter Tour in 2022.
39
And I loved him.
40
I did.
41
This happened.
42
As you click this video, You will see.
43
Check this out.
44
Check this out.
45
Look at that, bang.
46
Beautiful little thumbnail transition.
47
Now, he didn't have a crazy intro like I did.
48
That was actually an original idea.
49
That idea of the thumbnail transition is not mine.
50
I did not do that.
51
Now guys, I would firstly like to advise that you don't do this, because you will get lots of quick success However, that X6S isn't a real community.
52
Is real anything guys.
53
I'm telling you now, you will fall off.
54
It's cool to resort to gimmicks and it's a good hook I guess.
55
But people just come from the hook, right?
56
Like, my Semenautica video has, like, 700 views, and then all my other videos have, like, you know...
57
i mean they have a couple they have a couple
58
but then you know you just fall off into irrelevancy that's sort of just what's going to happen
59
so i highly advise you guys don't actually resort to gimmicks
60
that's why i've stopped doing the intros everyone gets angry at
61
me why why i am why no intro that's why
62
but today we have a couple videos of ones i'd like to analyze and discuss
63
and this is this is one of this is a massive one a lot of people tag me
64
and get angry at me saying you're copying him i'd even had a guy commenting on on my post
65
and said why are you copying ellie smash which is low -key crazy but let's take a look
66
I'm still watching as FUCK!

74
I can't down it.
75

117
So there you go guys.
118
Now, How would I rank these?
119
Not gonna lie, Ali Smash, I gotta say, number one.
120
He's definitely number one.
121
French Court tutorial's gotta go at the top, 'cause he's actually OG.
122
This, uh, Ripped in Half -On's gotta go lower down the list.
123
Flogging Varence, pretty decent.
124
Deliberate reference, pretty tough.
125
I did like 303 Arby.
126
I liked Iron Boxing Dude.
127
And Terrible Guy.
128
Terrible Guy was actually pretty good.
129
He had like three intros.
130
He could probably go higher than the Pixel.
131
I should just underneath the Pixel Guy.
132
And that's probably the orders I would go. But guys.
133
The main thing of why I wanted to show you all of this, right?
134
And talk about this.
135
So there's so many people have been pressing me in my comments on TikTok.
136
Tell me to do something about it.
137
Stop them from copying you.
138
But guys, you want to know something crazy?
139
Is that one day I want to be dead?
140
Hopefully that's a long time from now and I get to live a beautiful full life.
141
But guys, all of them are gonna be dead as well.
142
Please!
143
Please!
144
And the best part about this part of their life, when they're making these intros, maybe never making another YouTuber video again, is the fact that they're just having fun.
145
And that is it.
146
That is really it.
147
And I'm not gonna - I'm never gonna crush someone for having fun.
148
Even if you copied my videos one for one.
149
What can I do?
150
I'm just here in my - in my little room filming making videos every single day.
151
And these people are doing the exact same thing.
152
And they got a cool idea and they thought it was fun
153
so they wanted to do it and they all did it.
154
There's many many more of these that I didn't add into this video.
155
Just like when I watch Frenchcore, I watch this.
156
Now, can you ever write on, uh, you know, creative freedom?
157
Can you - can you actually own it?
158
I don't know.
159
That's a big ethical question.
160
What is actually yours?
161
What's someone else?
162
My personal opinion, I couldn't give a damn.
163
I actually couldn't care less.
164
I'm just here to have fun.
165
If other people are going to have fun doing the same thing I'm doing, then I'm here for.
166
And yeah, that's pretty much all today.
167
I hope you guys love yourselves.
168
I love you.
169
Jesus loves you too.
170
And I'll see you on the next video.
171
Keep staying innovative.
172
Keep creative.
173
I'll just say don't resort to it.
174
It's a terrible gimmick.
175
You'll get lots of views, but you will fall off.
176
Let's rebuild and let's have fun.
177
Day.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
