He is a very annoying person, and I speak as a content creator! If any of you watch my videos (and hi if you do!) I'm always very careful to not do anything scientific so he can't go off on one. Hats off to Alex and VacuumWars who get it constantly.
The issue with him is he has some mental health issues I think. If you ever saw his first Dyson Zorb video, where he rubbed zorb into his carpet with a turned off v10... I commented and said many things, and he asked me to prove it (as he always does) so I did, because if you ever saw my Zorb video, I have 3 generations of Zorb powder, and did what I thought were fair, to the letter tests using Dysons own instructions (spoiler, it freshens and revives the pile a bit but has zero stain removal). And as the comments went on, he got more agitated that he did not know the facts, that I knew better than he did. HE has to fact-check. That's where 99% of people commenting on his video fall down, they cannot explain the facts better than he can. After this I don't seem to get it as much as others (although he called me a screwdriver warrior in a comment recently about my v11 torque head breaking, as if I would willingly break something costing me £50 a month!) which is quite nice. I did reach out to him in the zorb comments telling him to email/message me and I'd gladly send him detailed photo's of the various zorb packagings, a scan of the dc04 zorbster manual... nothing.
A couple of other collectors like him and chat to him regularly, you'll be seeing a Sebo felix on his channel soon and I think that's coming from VacMat (another non-boased, totally nice kid...) so he will soon be trying to wind up the Sebo fans (please just don't fall for it). On the facebook groups I am a member of many people have blocked the members in question so information does not go back to Johnny, we sit in the 'dark corners of the internet' as he says.
What I have also noticed is it's always the same few people who comment positivly on his videos. Personally I usually see 4 or 5 fresh faces commenting on my videos every time, as well as my faithfull allegience of fans, on his... usually the same people.
It's a pain, I present my content in a way that he can pick no holes in (so my unscientific dirt pickup tests for fun because people like seeing them rather than 'look at how much this vacuum picks up etc') and poke blatent fun at him too. He begrudgingly commented on my V11 torque head annoyances video an surprisingly conceded that I might actually have a point (I had to sit down and have a drink at that point) although rounded off by saying that of course I was wrong... I have to prove that the flipping torque head fails to pick up bits of 1930's india rubber wire now because I supidly commented saying that I was cleaning up after a major re-wire of a Hoover 800 (where I'd replaced all the cloth covered perishing cable from the coil back, but forgot that it doesn't solder easily so had to cut it back a few times)and the torque head just spat it around the brushroll and flung it out (which it did) and he called me out on it and told me off for not filming it! Might collab with Alex on this one, we have axes to grind, especially since he straight out called Alex a liar and an idiot in various comments... now I know Alex is possibly an idiot but he is most certainly not a liar.
I am the only 'major' channel who has not blocked him as far as I know, because I can take the abuse and generally not care, and it's funny watching him wade in with a comment and suddenly running away when all my fans rip him to shreds. However sadly I know of at least 2 examples where his comments and general idiocy caused 2 people who I personally really like to either stop fully or go quiet for a while as their minds just could not shake it off like I can. And that's wrong. So he is just blocked as it's easier (which I should do really, but I like to poke the angry bee every once in a while when I'm bored)
I share your pain everyone!
