 What is up my cranky crew? It's Ethan from Crank Gameplays and today I have just a normal video for you You know, I think I think the lines have really been blurred over the over the years of You know, what is a real video, you know, this this month is my Is my 10-year anniversary and so I wanted to make a commitment to upload a video every day in August because it is it is my 10-year anniversary And so it just got me thinking, you know, like what is a Video, you know, I think there's there's so many things that That that can be videos, you know, you can take videos. You can post videos. You can edit videos And you know with all of my stuff I try and make the best possible Content I try and come up with the best kind of ideas because I I want to Oh, I found my slippers. I want I want to be sort of like an inspiration For for the up-and-coming generation. I know that I'm I'm still very young I'm only 25 but I sort of feel like an older youtuber at this point because I've been doing it for 10 years But you know, I want to I want to inspire people to to push beyond Their their limits and to make things that are are above and beyond and out of their comfort zone You know, and I think I try and do that with with every video, you know, I try and make it different I try and make it, you know, it's something bigger and better But you know, it just got me thinking a lot about like, you know, what is a video? You know when people when people think about like, oh Like that that video is really short or that video was You know, but it's it's not a real video like I've had that thought in the past with myself like oh This video is only two minutes long. It's not a real video, you know, and so it got me thinking about like what is What is a real video? You know, I think a real video is is something that makes you think it's something that that challenges you it's something that You know, it's not it's not obligatory, you know, you're not just making the video to To make sure that you get a video up every day, you know, I think it's it's got to be something special It's got a it's got to come from the heart. It's got a You know, it's got to mean something both to you and to The audience, you know, and and I know that every video that I make hits you guys in in many different ways, you know, and and I know that I know that I'm Sort of like a hero to a lot of people, you know, and I and I don't take that lightly Which is why I try and put my best into every single video no matter what, you know, no matter No, no matter what's at stake, you know, I try and make every single video Something special. I don't want to just put out a video to make sure that I put out a video every day in all I guess, you know, I want to make every video special. I want to make every video Mean something, you know And so it just You know, I'm really happy that I can continue to do that I'm really happy that I can continue to push myself and continue to make Some of the best content on the platform And that's not even an opinion. It's just sort of a fact because I am one of the only people that put my all into every single video and like I think that that's something that That sometimes people don't get is that like I put so much into every single video every single day and especially this This month in August because I want to upload it every single day because it's the 10-year anniversary I want to I want to stick to that, you know, and so Especially this month every video is special every video means something every video Every video is a statement in a way You know, because I I need to live up to that I need to live up to my own hype, you know and the hype that's That's surrounding me and myself and I um So, you know, I think I think it's just important that I remember that and I think it's important that I uh that I can Continue to live up to that mantra every day Um, and so it was just something a little bit on my mind um You know, and so I hope that some of you can relate and um, I just kind of wanted to to touch base on it You know and make sure that you know that even if there's a time where like The footage got corrupted and like it's being weird and the video Can't come out and the day that I'm going to try my Absolute hardest to still make To put my all into it and make Videos And put them here for you And knowing that everyone's a banger every one of them means something um And I think that that's really what it's about um So yeah, I that's kind of it my my battery's close to dying, but um Thank you guys so much I love you all um Thank you guys so much for 10 years.
