    Stupid question: how does he even make all that money? It can't possibly only be through advertising.

      Same way insta influencers "make all that money". By renting something for a day and pretending like they own it.

      "You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?"

      He now has 6 (working on a 7th) separate YouTube channels that all generate millions of views and sells ton of merchandise. There are also lots of advertisers willing to give him all kinds of money because he is almost guaranteed to get the views he needs to be profitable. And he has internet friendships with many other very popular creators which help increase his popularity.

      He was one of the stupid idiots during the mid 2010s that would video tape themselves doing increasingly stupid stunts like staying underwater for a day or breaking random shit for views. Unlike the rest of his fellow talentless hacks, he realized he could parlay those mindless subscribers into a marketing/advertising platform and venture capitalist funding, especially since the kids who watched him were getting older and realizing how stupid and awful his content was.
