Are we just living in a fucking South Park special? 😭 South Park just did a special where Cartman looses weight and gets away with shit because everyone is just so confused
As someone who actually studies social science, anyone who talks about doing a ‘social experiment’ automatically sounds like a prick. Even when you aren’t talking like a cartoon super villain
I feel like you can be a good human and do a social experiment on people, I watch Game Changer and even though Sam fucks with the players mind and is the true antagonist of the show, they still like him outside of it and he seems like a good person. But Nick, when he reveals that it's all been a social experiment, he doesn't say "omg this was fun to do and I learned a lot from this!" he still calls people ants and looks down at them like others are lesser. His viewpoint outside his character is still generally the same, and that's what's so gross to me.
@@raindeer9787 oh yeah I don’t mean someone like Sam, he’s great, I mean people who brag about doing a social experiment. Genuine social experiments are usually a good thing - it would be extremely weird for me to talk shit about the field I want to go into lmao - but a lot of people use it as an excuse to be a total dick. They basically use it as a ‘it was just a joke bro chill out’, and they don’t abide by any of the ethical guidelines or research methods that social research depends on Plus if nothing else, the Game Changer cast members sign up to be tormented and they’re dedicated comedians who will absolutely commit to a bit no matter where it goes. I mean Izzy literally told Sam she’d give birth on camera, he’s the one holding them back if anything
I want everyone to remember that iNabber made a 7 hour long video of all the terrible things Nik did. 7 HOURS. Just because he had this weird transition doesn’t mean he didn’t do those things. Edit: thanks for telling me the name of the 7 hour vid guy. My mind blanked when I was writing.
Btw no one should like him. This is an accomplishment, but he’s still a terrible guy. Treat him terrible. He’s getting pretty privilege, unfortunately.
@@BeeD0zeriNabber made the video. 100% agree, I'm honestly disgusted with the reaction from people acting like he's not awful. How much of a pedestal has society put weight loss on that losing weight makes his manipulative behavior a "genius internet troll" and not manipulative, harmful behavior under the guise of being a character?? The people he involved weren't characters.
Literally I keep bursting out laughing cause it sounds like an anime villain monologuing. Combine Light, Hisoka, and Shigaraki plus an absurd mukbang channel and you get panda bear Nikocado
Ignoring absolutely EVERYTHING, his bird likes his morning “back-scratches” because it’s making the bird horny. Rubbing a bird’s back like that makes them horny and eventually can make them very aggressive. PSA: USUALLY SANE PEOPLE RESEARCH ABOUT AN ANIMAL THEY ARE GOING TO EVENTUALLY HAVE, WHEN RESEARCHING ABOUT DOMESTICATED/EXOCTIC BIRDS, IT IS ABSOLUTELY COMMON KNOWLEDGE TO KNOW NOT TO RUB THEIR BACKS TO DISCOURAGE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIORS AND MATING BEHAVIORS, BECAUSE IT IS QUITE EASY TO CAUSE AGGRESSION IN EXOTIC BIRDS LIKE ONE HE OWNS. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I OWN AN EXOTIC BIRD MYSELF.
@@goodgolly4726 He was constantly antagonising his own audience, other youtubers and creators, acting out very abusive and toxic scenarios with his husband, saying some deranged shit and stuff like that. He was like the embodiment of "Toxic entitled bratty delusional influencer".
his behavior leads me to think he probably is fully aware of this.. He can see the way the bird is reacting. There was a girl who was in hot water for the same thing with an African Grey iirc, like last year. His behavior with the bird just makes me feel yucky.
As someone with a background in psych and human bio, I wanna remind everyone that drastic weight loss in a short period of time isn't healthy or safe, regardless of the methods used. Your body requires a certain amount of time to process any large changes in body mass, in any direction, and rapid weight loss can lead to serious issues becoming triggered suddenly due to a disruption in your physical homeostasis. These symptoms can range from aesthetic changes like hair loss and change in skin texture, to something as serious as endocrine, thyroid, liver, kidney, or heart failure, and they can occur without much warning. As a side note, I am in no place to provide a diagnosis to Nik, but I can tell you that rapid continuous weight gain followed by rapid weight loss is usually a result of maladaptive relationships with food and disordered eating, which are both mental health concerns. No side of this situation is healthy, but it should still be approached with nuance. In finality, please, for goodness sake, do not show before and after pictures of Nik to the fat people in your life as some sort of attempt to "inspire" them to lose weight. It's not the compassionate move you believe it to be.
@@LyntzbartzkyPerez don’t eat excessively? But also don’t starve yourself? There’s a lot of stigmatization and misconceptions about Weight loss, and one of the biggest is that you should eat less than the average amount. Weight gain has a lot of different causes. some of the causes are hereditary genes, or even the way your country processes foods. You have to remember that no matter what anyone says, gaining weight isn’t inherently a bad thing, especially if you aren’t doing anything extra to be gaining that weight If you’re really looking for weight loss advice, I’d talk to your doctor abt it. They’ll be able to tell you if you should lose weight and the healthiest way to do so.
Thats so true! Generally speaking doctors (in Germany) recommend to not lose more than 500 grams per week, so 2 kg per month. Him losing 250 pounds (110 kg) should have taken him like at least 4 and a half years by that estimate if done safely. He is literally harming himself and I really hope people don't start copying or celebrating this behaviour :(
Can we also mention about the Stephanie soo And him abusing his husband?! He isnt just disgusting about gaining & loosing his weight the way he did and making it seem like what he did was not wrong he is just a disgusting person.!
@@da1zed she has a video uploaded if u want to watch it but her and Nick were friends and he was invited to they’re house and they found out he was taking pictures of the security cameras he did worse things mocking her past abuse
@@notericforeman I think people aren’t canceling him yet because we’re not sure he knows what he’s doing (probably knows but we can’t say for sure). The girl last year said in the video that she knows the bird was getting aroused.
There was a post on r/thomastheplankengine about 2 years ago talking about this dudes dream that Nikocado came out and said all of this was a social experiment and he was a lie. It was insane
why are all the comments "why is no one talking about him touching the bird's back?" but literally, all I see are those comments talking about it😭 Anyways, I'm thankful for all those comments, I didn't know that fact about birds, and now I'm extremely disturbed by the way he touches it and looks at it
@@mentalalchemy4819 a lot of types of birds, including parrots, get sexually aroused by being touched on the back and some other areas. This is because it simulates the allogrooming that occurs between birds before mating. Over prolonged periods, this can cause the bird a lot of stress physically and psychologically, and can cause illness and aggression.
13:44 GET HIM AWAY FROM THAT BIRD GET HIM AWAY FROM THAT BIRD incase you don't know why this is such a big deal rubbing a bird's back turns them on so yeah and maybe he didn't know that but I highly doubt that because if is whole "hate me please" persona
i am surprised that almost everyone believed that this Nikocado character was the real him. Props to his acting skills,even if he did break character from time to time. But honestly? Who would even take him seriously anymore after this, especially with his 2014 wattpad villain monologue 💀
I dont like that no one is talking about how he's petting that bird. Birds aren't supposed to be pet on their backs or under their wings, it makes them produce sexual hormones, and can make them sexually frustrated because you're treating them like a "mate" but wont be their mate. Its not good for the bird and its overall strange to do-Nik is an awful human being, so i can only assume that hes just doing that for hate and ragebait too.
@@Necrophyllis.you're right, but i have seen that on multiple sources about owning a bird although it was a while ago, because i wanted a bird at that time. (i settled for a cat, not that that's important), so nic should've known that, but i wouldn't be surprised if he didn't do any research before getting a bird.
@maxinesbrokenlimbs4079 oh I agree you should definitely do your research before adopting any form of animal but honestly i think that's too high of expectation for the avarage human.
@@Necrophyllis.you’re everywhere and it’s not abt the average human..it’s abt the bird owner knowing that. Any person that’s going to become a bird owner. It’s not “too high of an expectation”, and it’s not that hard…😑
13:50 YO he is touching that bird and it is making me sick to keep watching you guys glaze over it. That bird should not be tweaking out like that. HE IS LITERALLY MOLESTING HIS BIRD GUYS SAY SOMETHING
@@Necrophyllis.but you SHOULD expect someone who’s had a bird for like 10 years to know that. I didn’t know (I also don’t have bird) someone with a bird should know that
6:33 I don’t like the mr panda mask :/ knowing what he did to Stephanie Soo (or Rotten Mango for some) this just feels nasty bc Stephanie’s husband is known as Mr Panda WEARING THAT MASK! there’s no way he doesn’t know if he has made video with Stephanie and it’s so disgusting how he treated Stephanie and now he’s wearing the mask Mr Panda is known using… I know ppl who doesn’t know who Stephanie is or doesn’t watch her this comment sounds silly or just a coincidence but if you even watch 1-3 videos from Stephanie you understand it I feel so bad and disgusted about this like it might be coincidence but no way he doesn’t remember if he doesn’t it just makes his actions worse..
No one saw him irl in 2 years? I feel like if he got recognised (and he probably would have been?) it would’ve been noticeable. Crazy how he pulled it off
Someone please notice Nick is literally being weird to his bird ik it's not common knowledge BUT HE'S LITERALLY TURNING ON HIS BIRD?? Don't pet your parrots on the back, that gets them too excited. It's at 13:50
@MonolithicCyanTsunami what's the Stephanie Soo thing? i watched some of her videos and listen to her podcasts, but i never saw/heard anything about this
@@goofyrat2938 yup, and I think that his use of the panda head (which Stephanie’s husband uses to conceal his identity for privacy) at the beginning was further evidence that he hasn’t changed at all in the places that matter. Its literally the exact same panda head im pretty sure
I'm just glad that he's getting healthier, I may not like him but I didn't want to see him slowly kill himself just for fame, he looks happier so hopefully he can grow as a person, I don't forgive him but I'm glad he's getting better
Yeah me too. But being at that weight and health for over 5 years definitely harmed his body beyond repair which is pretty sad knowing that fame and money is what kept him going for so long
Exactly, I’m not willing to forgive or forget, but I can’t lie, I’m happy for him and I’m glad he’s better (and hopefully he’ll continue getting better, maybe apologize, learn from his mistakes…)
I feel like everyone is so in awe of this one act that they’re forgetting what he did to Stephanie Soo. It doesn’t feel like forgiveness, but forgetfulness from the masses. I haven’t finished the video yet so I don’t know if it gets brought up at all but I just wanted to leave my thoughts
16 minutes!!! I am in fact cleaning my room!! (It got really bad bc depression room, but I’ve made a lot of progress and I’m really proud! You can see the floor now! (: ) Also, I literally love your content- you make me so incredibly happy when I watch your videos
THATS AWWSOME!! I just cleaned my depression room the other day as well and I've felt so much better. I believe that you can keep it clean :3 I hope you feel better for the rest of ur life!! 💖 congrats on ur clean room and I'm so proud of you 😼
Idk about you but i always get the ick when someone does some bullshit and then calls it a "social experiment" This does not excuse the things they did
I haven't seen anyone mention this but can we talk about Stephanie soo and how he abused her mentally?? And idk if anyone else thought of this but him wearing a panda mask at first actually disgusted me because there's no way he didnt do that on purpose...
The fact he hadn’t been in drama in a while should’ve been a giveaway he was working on something big… especially since he came back and immediately mocked Stephanie Soo. He can’t even lose weight without involving drama, it’s truly his personality and the way he chooses to live his life.
did louis not talk about anything nikocado did other than like, lying? he just mentioned getting into beef with other ppl and then said a lof of stuff about how lying is bad
It kills me that everyone is impressed by a very wealthy man with access to whatever he wants being able to achieve weight loss over the course of a couple of years.
As someone who’s poor, sometimes it’s NOT UR FUCKING FAULT!! I’m 15 my parents are disabled no of us can work cus I’m too young and they’re disabled. My best friend I just turned 15 and was HOMELESS living at my house (homeless being like no personal home) because of her parents who haven’t been able to keep a house in this god damn economy. The housing market is off the wall rn and inflation is crazy I remember when I could by a pound of apples for 1.50$ now it’s like 1.50$ per apple and the way I’m speaking makes me sound so old cus inflation should never skyrocket so fast and it’s forcing youth who’s parents struggle to grow up way to fast just to make sure we’re not homeless at 19-20. People like nick make me sick cus they don’t know the struggle of being STUCK maybe he knows how it feels being poor but if he truly knew what being stuck in poverty felt like he’d know never to say that shit cus it’s a struggle out here. I’ve gotten my blood drawn and was warned about stress… cus my levels were so elevated for someone my age and demeanor it was odd. I live as a adult with none of the benefits and I’m tired of it. At least let 15 year olds work for Christ’s sake
louis, i heavily disagree with you there, we definitely should not be commending him for this "new era" of his. it's not only feeding into the whole "skinny privilege" thing, but we need to take into account how he didn't do all the bad things he did because he was fat, he did them because he genuinely is a really terrible person. yes, he does say he's the "villain" in all this and how he fooled us all, but it's not right to commend him now just because of the fact he got us good or how he's turned to a healthy lifestyle now. he's ruined and hurt other people, take stephanie soo as example. stephanie's story is one we should not forget, especially in a time like this now. he even references it in his coming back video, which is just sick. yes, i'm probably feeding into his point of him really being the villain, but as the audience, we should not be applauding or commending him for anything at all.
just the other day i was info dumping to my bf about how pigeons are great because you can pet them unlike with parrots, since parrots get aroused by that and you can only really safely pet their heads and not their backs so for the entire video i couldn't stop thinking about what nikocado was doing to his poor parrot who will probably have hormonal issues now
I think most somewhat intelligent people knew he was acting crazy on camera for views. It was very obvious to me. He created a whole persona. Also, you can tell the videos he uploaded for a while were old. I had an idea he was losing weight behind the scenes tbh. I just didn’t expect it to happen as fast as it did
still, what he did to stephanie soo is not okay. dunno if he is apologizing about it offline. but by saying it was just a persona doesnt make it okay at all for his part.
Seeing the new videos of Nick was literally so surreal to me. Shock, amused, amazed, etc. tho, i don't rlly like how he starts arousing his bird. I used to have pet birds (budgerigars), but rubbing their backs, arouses them. It's more better to pet them on the heads.
I just discovered you through your video about Zelda, and you are SOO underrated. I feel like I’ve joined a secret by watching your videos. I love them!
Omg I was literally entering RU-vid to see if this was real because I saw it on insta and it looked edited and the first video to pop up was Louis covering it I'm so glad😭
Honestly, what scheme? He made a fool of himself on the internet and then said “no you”? Man literally shit his pants on the internet in front of the world and said “haha you have fallen for my diabolical scheme!”
nah bc is anyone else like...kinda baffled that he chose to wear the panda head mask bc stephanie soo's husband wears one too to protect his anonymity. like i dont really watch nik's stuff so idk if he's worn it before or what, but knowing that he's had beef with stephanie in the past, it just feels weird.
this sounds like the plot to the paper clip episode from smiling friends edit: the bird should not be tweaking out that damn hard, if none of you know, it should be common sense for bird owners to not pet their back as it makes the goddamn bird horny and sometimes encourages aggressive behaviour. he's sexually abusing his bird.
I feel very validated in being weirdly creeped out by him since the first time I saw him. I couldn't put my finger on it, his content just always seemed strange and fake but also desperate and sad.
The thing is, although Nik has painted himself to be “the villain,” in doing so, it’s not like the act didn’t become reality at some point. It’s not like the so called villain didn’t actually become the real villain and instigator just because he says he orchestrated it all- the harmful stuff he instigated online should be evidence of that.
