Post up your rare gems you found down the Youtube rabbit hole. Here are some of mine:
This guy buys, modifies and repairs (often) a Chinese ATV with a Jeep-styled body on it, then tries to drive it 1,000 miles to Moab, Utah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8Bvy8wHD7g. (Several parts.) He's hilarious and the scenery is awesome.
A really well-done mini film about riding The Whole Enchilada. This video was largely responsible for inspiring me to go ride that route myself, and I'm planning to go up there again in October: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ana6az4zGvo
This guy comedically talks up military heroes, equipment, and tactics. The vids are essentially all the same, but his delivery cracks me up: https://www.youtube.com/@the_fat_electrician

Don't quite know how to explain this guy except his tool vids are pretty funny.

Thats weird. It was just CBS Sunday morning. A story about the titanic sub now missing.

I read about that.
Asked for the link because sometimes it works if I use the app.
It's not working this time, but thanks anyway.
who knew you you could make something that bitchin in 15 min? That guys amazing, and barefoot too!
Yeah he moves fast
Oh Hell yeah. I like the trainhopping and camping videos, too.
I like this guy. He posts up in illegal or "hidden in plain sight" camping spots: https://www.youtube.com/@campingwithsteve
The fat electrician is great. He did a collab with one of my favorites not too long ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDZVoPU5rf4
Angry Cops - https://www.youtube.com/@AngryCops/videos
Pretty incredible, but doesn't it kind of poop on the guys who did it without power tools?
Granted, I don't have the vision to see art, so I don't know what I'm talking about.
I watch camping with Steve all the time! It was so sad when his wife passed away.
Here are two more train hoppers I watch.

I also enjoy this.

Can someone do one of those without power tools before dying of old age ?
I don't think it takes anything away from a "Hand tools only" guy, but I'm sure there's some purest people who do. I suppose it would be considered two different mediums ? To me either way they were able to visualize the thing in a chunk of wood and carve out everything else. That's the talent, get everything out of there that isn't part of the "Vision" Is a guy that uses modern (better) tools to do it less of an artist ? I don't know but I bet the guy who does it with chisels files and sandpaper does lol
This ones cool if you're a car guy. Only 17 videos, I stumbled across the one about Corvairs and Don Yenko

One for the car/fabrication enthusiasts
Bad Obsession Motorsport
https://www.youtube.com/@BadObsessionMotorsport/featured
They take a classic Austin Mini and turn it into a 4WD drive monster by fabricating in a Toyota Toyota Celica ST185 GT4 engine. An obscene amount of work by 2 nutty Brits

If you like Woodworking, This guys is as OCD as I am when it comes to craftsmanship.

Brought tears to my eyes I laughed so much
Very cool thread idea Falcon!
Absolutely LOVE this gal.
She's a vocal coach....she breaks down popular songs into the "technical" stuff. She's a blast to watch...her expressions are incredible.
Lots of other "big hits" that she breaks down. I bought a pair of those headphones she recommends for a whole new listening experience.
...and something with a little more "testosterone".
Matts Off Road Recovery Channel.
I love woodworking videos, so I'll have to check that guy out.
One of my go-to's is the Dusty Lumber Company. The joints this guy makes are insane:

This guy's channel is addicting

Misconception, exaggeration and overlooked details that define us today.
Wish all those Scrolls that got destroyed @ 12:00 were somehow saved.
Interesting History, @ 21:55 The Indians could have been named anything but Indians
The kid honestly does an amazing job of breaking down and trying to explain how to visualize the “structure”.

Not really anything learn per se - but with sound added and footage cleaned up, it just makes the whole thing feel all the more real and visceral. Incredible what they went through - some of those guys are so young too.
XKCDHatGuy is amazing.
Beautifully done.... The lighting is incredible.
...and another.
