  • How is your friend doing? Also what resources were able to help him, because we had a housefire and lost everything and found out the landlord had no insurance so we are unable to replace anything.

  • Will help!

  • Isn't that a picture of James Brown?

  • is there any other way to donate besides paypal or credit card?

  • He didn't have insurence? I feel so bad for him :( i'm gonna try to donate.

  • I'll try to donate, good luck!

  • wow, wish I could have helped, I know I am just finding out a bit late, didnt see this video when you posted it, but all I can say is I wish him the best of luck.

  • you´re a good friend

  • I don't have money to give but I can say keep positive, things will get better. :)

  • wow you guys are heartless people..... i can't bei'eve i share a world with you heartless cold people.

  • @Keithpwnage Wow yo're a dumbass. Watch his newest video, there's PROOF.

  • @Keithpwnage hey dude, check his latest post, yeah he TOTALY burned his house for a scam.

  • I find it sweet to help someone who been through that... But c'mon, asking for money? isn't he able to work is way back to normal without charity? There's actually real causes to support.

  • @BSRobbie You don't take a policy out on every object you own... You take a blanket policy to cover the cost to replace your belongings in the event of a fire/flood/break-in/etc. If you can't afford insurance, you probably can't afford the apartment. Do you drive without insurance? 99.9% of banks won't let you have a car with a loan out on it and not have full coverage. Just cover your ass and pay for the insurance. If you never use, consider yourself lucky. Better safe than sorry.

  • It is not CHARITY, donate. Charity sucks, helping someone who lost all through no fault of their own is epic! Posted to twitter and Facebook, I do not do charity but I will help this guy out who through no fault of his own, lost everything he had gained from (what I am led to believe) actually earning it.

  • Dumb cunt should have had insurance. Save your charity for people who really need help not someone who was to Jewish to cover his own ass.

  • i think 52 people are either complete A-holes or thought this was a scam but trust me Greg wouldnt do that.

  • @primeboxers thats not funny u racist son of a gun

  • @primeboxers it is people like you the world hates

  • @TheAwesomePirate and people like you make youtube commenting so damn fun!

    I didn't mean what I said u analbag, calm down dumbass!

  • well i just donated $5. I sure hope this isn't fraud tho Greg

  • Sorry, I wish I could help, but I'm only 15 and my mom doesn't like me using money on the internet.

  • it makes me sad that all people are negative... they scream haha he still has his car etc... but when they have an house fire and they lose everything, they are the first to go: Please help me, i supported everybody blabblabla.. seriously dudes... im gonna donate because i TRUST mediocrefilms and it should be time you guys did too! you guys just make me sick.

  • How about i donate a punch to YOUR face for him, shifty bloke.

  • "FAKE" 

  • @waveringTJ26 u should stfu.. ignorant

  • I feel bad for Greg knowing he has to sift through all these absolute rubbish comments all because he posted a video urging people to help a friend of his.

  • unsubbed....

  • not cool

  • did the fire burn his bank down too?

  • @DNO221 he lost his credit card and all identification papers and knowing how banks are dicks he wont get his money

  • thumb this up if you think the thumbnail picture looked a little like Tom Hanks when you looked quick o.o

  • This is not right

  • 49 people are assholes.

  • It's very kind of you to help your friend. I wish I could save the world! I will do whatever is in my power to do.

  • i really wish i could help but i got money issues as well i really hope this helps him out

  • thts iligal so if u recieve donations from people under 18 u can get arrested

    

  • @tydyky63 Do you have a brain? Who the hell gives a crap about laws you're making up in a time like this

  • Didn't he have insurance? That's what it's for. (I don't mean to be insensitive, but we've lost many things due to floods and such. Hubby also lost work for 2 months and we have 4 kids so I couldn't get a job.)

  • @GinaEmacs Once again, insurance regarding property damage in a fire would only cover the actual owner of the apartment. Even if he has some form of insurance it doesn't really matter anymore because he has no legal documents to even prove that he's himself anymore. You can't use insurance as a back up in this situation, that's not how it works.

  • @ComradePajitnov I didn't see your/an earlier post about insurance, sorry. However, there is renter's insurance which covers the possessions of the renter, not the owner (the owner has homeowner's insurance which covers the structure). As for not proving who he is, we had a flood and lost all our documentation, all you have to do is contact your birth hospital or the DMV, etc. to get proof of who you are.

  • @GinaEmacs Yeah I figured that out after I made the comment. Also regarding the identity recovery, it would still take a while for that to process (I imagine it did for you), this is just to help him get back on his feet while he waits really.

  • Insurance (renter's or whatever applies) should cover it and there are ways to regain your documentation in just days (we had to get birth records, proof of parenthood, proof of residency, etc., one just took 2 days, the longest item took 2 weeks thru the mail). People need to share the info with him on those ways to get his documents and he should also contact the appropriate local resources to help him out.

  • I had to shorten my reply so it may have come across as unconcerned. I've been in his situation (flood) so I understand but there are ways to get the info, local resources to help, etc. If he keeps optimistic and contacts his local church, etc. he can get the help he needs fairly quickly.

  • @cosmicburrito2 I would have been more comfortable giving him the money if he had a kid or if he was kidding around and was like fuck it, just give me money. But its just one guy who either set his own apartment on fire like a jackass or through unpreventable circumstance some other jackass set the apartment on fire. In any case, he doesn't need charity based on that. There could have been more detail or something if it were that serious.

  • @thenotsew SON OF BITCH D:<

  • @ScreamxForxSmiles heeeeeey thats not very nice :(

  • @thenotsew FUCK YOU DUDE GET A LIFE

  • @JackSmileyFace for fuck sake i made a racist joke thats all ...thats nothing compared to what i normaly do to black people XD lol i said that to make you mad :3

  • @thenotsew not funny asshole

  • if one more person hates on me for being racist ...i shall fukin STAB U!

  • @thenotsew Actually I think you'll do nothing because this is the internet and you can't stab people if you're only interacting with them in a virtual space. That being said, your joke wasn't funny and I'm pretty sure the only person who laughed was you (always a sign to not make a joke).

  • Make sure he doesn't befriend a guy named Tyler, figuratively or otherwise.

  • @PabzGLRP heh... i think it'd be interesting

  • awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww you're awesome

  • Aww, that's so sweet of you...wait-a-minute! Same thing happened to me! I need donations too! I don't have any insurance, any savings, any family, any RL friends or nothing! Please donate!

  • Well he survived the fire and still has a car i think his life is going pretty good as long as he has caring friends like u

  • It is sad in the socioty and me included in that but there is a lot of help available out there i don't think its a scam but i don't think you can set up a donation site straight away without going through these channels if he was totally homeless i'd understand and pay my part but he has you. but do you expect all of us to believe he has no savings, no insurance no nothing? no offence but he is an extremely unwise man to do that

  • @virgoinlove3091 What part of "everything he owned burned in a fire" don't you understand? Protip, "everything" includes "identification", something that you kind of need to make use of insurance and savings accounts.

  • @Danomeon And how can you prove me wrong??? Its all fair and good saying its not another scam...but proof would be required :)

    Go play basketball...or play with your barbies little boy, nothing to see here :P

  • home insurance. 

  • @quicksilv3r1984 .....doesn't apply to people who live in apartments

  • @ComradePajitnov Ok I fact checked this, it can apply to you but only if you have it in the first place. Not everyone can afford insurance (especially since it's so goddamned expensive) and even if he did have it he has no form of identification and the settlement is going to take a while to actually come in.

  • After your douchebaggery series I thought you were heartless. Now I see you have a heart and a very big heart at that. I wish I could help and stop posting negative comments guys if you can't help or say something nice then don't comment... it just wastes everyones time including your own :D.

  • Whish i had some money to help out. Hope he gets back on his feet ok.

  • omg this is the same shit that makeup chick did about her sick paralyzed friend. nope nope not gonna believe it. booooo

  • The skepticism and negativity in these comments makes me sad for our society

  • @JoshRimer THAT makes you sad? watch the news once in a while

  • I guess he's never heard of bank accounts.

  • your such a nice guy!

  • Some if not most of you commenting are complete idiots.  "that's life that's not my problem" etc etc You're stupid. Bottom line, idiots.

  • insurance?

  • thats life, thats not my problem.............. nor anyones problem.... AND FAKE!!!!! HELP A FRIEND OR U BOYFRIEND...LOL

  • @waveringTJ26 Umm; he has a wife. & it's definitely not fake. He wouldn't fake about something like this dipshit. Who gives a fuck if it's not your problem, if it's not; then just leave. If you don't wanna help; just leave. If you're an asshole (& YES you are); then just leave. So just leave. & yes, it is life. & it sucks. So he's asking for his friend since he's sort of famous because of youtube if people can help him get through this struggle. So fuck you fagget. Get a life.

  • Wow! a lot of you people are ASSHOLES! greg i wish your friend luck! and you are a really nice guy for trying to help him

  • are u gay man

    -please help to my friend wtf

    if u ask help about a hookers i will help you

  • If you believe this shit you're an idiot and probably deserve to lose all your money to crooks like this anyway.

  • You lying, scamming piece of shit. Who's gonna be stupid enough to give their money to some desperate, struggling piece of shit actors anyway?

  • @Meggielou902 When your house burns down in a fire I'm sure you'll appreciate everyone ignoring you too.

  • No.

  • wow the majority of people commenting are douchbagsm over a guy trying to be nice. You commenters are smelly.

  • Awe that's terrible I hope everything works out for him

  • Make him wash your dishes.

  • Bull-fucking-shit. Anyone who gives a PENNY to this degenerate doesn't deserve to possess opposable thumbs.

    PULEAZE GIVEZ MEH ALL YUR MONAYZ PULEAZE. WAAAAAH WAAAAAH WAAAAAAH

    Somebody call whine-11 and ask for a WAAAAHMBULANCE we have an emo-mergency.

  • @icecool1065 You know, if you've nothing else to do with your time than try to make people feel worse than you do, you're more to be pittied than hated. honestly, i feel sorry for you. Your life must be a tragedy.

    Herez a suggestion, go out there, and get a life.

  • renters insurance is nice

  • WHY IS EVERYONE ASKING ME FOR MONEY ON YOUTUBE LATLEY?

  • LOL another con man trying not only to get views and subs....but cash!! cheeky cheeky :P

    How about....stop begging on youtube....surely thats against the terms and conditions????

  • @lovinit19791 not at all

  • I suppose you can claim for insurance regarding the apartment? C'mon ! Common sense?

  • @TheGeeksftw If he had home and contents insurance. Not everyone does,.

  • @TheGeeksftw The only person who would get any money in that situation is the person who actually owns the apartment. Malachi wouldn't get anything for it,

  • @ComradePajitnov He would only get money if he had renter's insurance, and even then he has no identification anymore and the amount of time for any actual settlement to come in will be pretty long.

  • @ComradePajitnov then that means he didnt lose the apartment...

  • @sodaxcandy08 What

  • @TheGeeksftw Only if he had renter's insurance, which many people do not.

  • @TheGeeksftw not every one has renters insurance

  • Comment removed

  • CON MAN

  • how did YOU call him up, if he lost everything hes got? o.O

  • @andollio1337 Pay phones still exist you know...

  • @ComradePajitnov Alright, i'd like to see you call a random payphone and it happens to be the friend you intended to speak to.

    Read the damn comment before you reply you fucking idiot.

  • @andollio1337 Actually in this case it was me forgetting Greg said he called him up, so your response should have been "watch the video" not "read my comment" (also the insult was completely unnecessary). For some reason I thought you were referring to how Greg was contacted by Malachi in the first place (chalk that up to being tired).

    ANYWAYS the real answer is Malachi is most likely staying with someone else right now and he called that number, it only makes sense.

  • @SuperMinutes Haha ! Thats the spirit !

  • this happened to me lost everything went through a depression

  • i think he'll be okay wthout our help. does he not have friends or something?

  • This guy has enough money, he wouldnt scam us.

  • umm...aren't renters supposed to have insurance? and when i say supposed i mean mandatory?

  • @nuklz In most states, I don't think renter's insurance is mandatory.

  • Wow, a lot of hating on this vid. Greg, I think your efforts here are great. Maybe you could put a limit of a few thousand dollars to be accepted... still, anything to help Malachi to get back on his feet would be great!

  • this is a great way to make money, talk about scam

    wheres the proof????

  • so what, it happens all the time.

  • @ragenFOX your mom happens all the time

  • FAKE AND GAY

  • U know ofc this sucks for him but he wont die if noone gives him 5$, he just will be poor but he wont die. Children in Africa need 5$ to survive and thats why id rather give them 5$ and not Malachi.

  • @IHitpointed Poverty isn't just in Africa, even in developed countries like your own people live in poverty and need money to buy food and survive too. Africa is not the only place to give your money.

  • @SamsStation

    If someone in my country lives in poverty than its because a) hes very lazy and has problems with alcohol or b) hes an migrant

  • I feel so horrible for Malachi....all my best wishes and also from people from waaaaaay up north in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

  • I'd donate if i could, i just don't have a creditcard. :P

  • A friend in need is a friend indeed.

  • lol you guys are stupid to donate shit now hes ritch im gonna make a video just like this so i get allot of money whaha :D

  • I Donated.....haha SIKE!

  • @McDeeViouz that's not very funny I actually did donate, mediocrefilms I'm nice

  • @stitch5 ...Charity starts at home

    ^Those were the wise words of my late grandpoppy!

  • @McDeeViouz

    lmfao

  • Im sorry that i can't donate, im pretty much poor right now but im going to share it with everyone i know. I hope that helps. . .

    I wish him the best of luck and im happy that him and his roommate are okay.

  • Insurance?

  • Probably Yeshmin who exploded next to his house.

  • hey thats James Browns facebook app, whats going on????

  • That sucks to hear! I too have lost most of everything I own. I have but a few pairs of clothes and my busted car, it is a tough situation but I take it day by day and keep my head up as best as possible. Best wishes to your friend Greg.

  • I donated, man...not much, I"ll admit (because I am unemployed right now), but I did. Good luck, Malachi. I too have lost everything in a fire before.

  • Donated

  • Wait? What about Insurance? oh I guess we dont all live in Canada. Poor you.

  • @timmy69690 Hahaha, dick.

  • my heart goes to him and his family... Greg you have a good heart and your friend is lucky to have a friend like you...

  • i hope he can get back on his feet. ill be praying for him.

  • My sympathies to your friend, Greg, I would donate but I'm pretty low on cash at the moment.

  • abusing your youtube fame.

  • i wish i could but im basicly poor.; and i know how he feels. that has recently happened to my sister who also lives in LA and they completely started over. thankfully her boyfriends family ia wealthy. also he's an actor. so thats weird :)

    huge fan greg! been watchin for years :)

  • anything for your wife

  • i would if i could but my mom isnt a huge fan of donating money online. she says that they r lieing and just steeling ur money

  • @pb101freak

    Judging by how you type, I'm not surprised about how your mother doesn't trust you online...

  • @Eldfrey ha.

  • dude he could anytimego to the bank with id and get the money from his acc

  • @Ibragim12 lol dude his ID burned, ur plan = failure

  • i must say you are one nice person

  • my heart goes out to him but there are bigger charities i would first donate money to

  • thats what insurance is for

  • Hmm... Subway $5 foot long, or help a dude in need...?

    Ill help the dude in need :P

  • Wow...

    And not to be mean, but how do you lose your car keys in a fire?

  • @tfeth282 They melt from the heat

  • I'll mirror this video, and it's strange; a few of my friends' friends lost their house as well.

  • Greg wouldn't scam us and even if he had insurance, it's gonna take a while to get things together and for the claim to process. I'd say send what you can now. If your still skeptic, just think that sending money in this first week would be a true help! I had a friend in a similar situation and it took FOREVER for the claim to process and for the state help to kick in!

  • I wish I could put a five in there, but I have no internet credit, or credit cards, or money... I'm just a teenager, damn I wish I could grow up any faster e___e

    Believe me, I would give like 20 dollars, but I have no power...

  • @NitroRaider

    Haters Gonna Hate

  • I'll put a fiver in. Downloading now

  • morale of the story, have good insurance for everything.

  • @MadHobbit Moral of the story, learn how to spell.

  • @rawkfist208 negative projection......

  • @MadHobbit Wtf does that mean?

  • Wish him the best

  • Shay's dog lived in his own apartment?

  • Is the apartment not insured? I pay for apartment insurance and I'm sure the owner of the apartment has her own insurance too. I feel bad for this guy but I'm sure he's not starting from scratch. A healthy check from the insurance is heading his way if he doesnt have it already and there is a lot of local help too.
