Top 10 Worst Moments in YouTube History
From its inception in 2005, YouTube has steadily grown to become a platform where billions of people around the world learn, laugh, connect, and yes, sometimes cringe, too. As the globe's leading video sharing site, YouTube's history is filled with memorable moments, and while many are noteworthy for their creativity, innovation, or sheer viral appeal, others are remembered for entirely different reasons.Think about all the times you've scrolled through your feed, only to find a shocking headline about a scandal involving a popular YouTuber or a controversy sparked by an offensive video. These are the moments that prompt heated debates, churn out a torrent of reactions, and sometimes, even drive changes in the platform's policies. From creator controversies to contentious algorithmic decisions, these moments have sparked widespread discussion and, in some cases, outrage.
So, let's talk about those worst moments in YouTube history. Which ones immediately come to mind? Is it a controversial video that sparked widespread backlash? Or maybe it's an instance where a beloved YouTuber stepped out of line?
It's absolutely disgusting, and his making a substandard apology video (that was MONETIZED!) made things worse!
Total disrespect towards other people, Logan Paul. I hope you learned your lesson.
This channel was literally going to shut down.
It's absolutely sad and horrible. Angry Grandpa will be missed.
This predator went on a shooting spree at their headquarters because her videos kept getting demonetized. Let that sink into your head.
This actually happened the day I'm typing this.
Oh God...that's horrific. Did they find out who did it?
I'm telling you, if Edd hadn't been affected by leukemia, the show would definitely still be running.
Edward Eddsworld Gould needs a verification stamp, but YouTube, becoming the Internet Communists they're trying to be, won't let the late Edd have one. Besides, he inspires another YouTuber I've heard of to do what he can. The YouTuber Edd inspires is a small creator by the pseudonym T_StreakMLP.
Man, this sucked. I love Eddsworld, and the show was never the same without him.
Sad. I used to be obsessed with Eddsworld when I was nine.
Baby by Justin Bieber used to have more dislikes, but thanks to this pile of vomit, it apparently removed a ton of the dislikes for that dumb song.
Good news! This video is about to become the most disliked video of all time. Want to know why?
1. The Fortnite references
2. PewDiePie was not featured
3. Lame K-Pop references
4. Horrible songs were featured
5. Mr. Beast was missing
6. Baby Shark
7. Poor references to the World Cup
8. Bongo Cat
This doesn't need to be number 1, but it should be in the top 3, at least. Just in a few hours, this will become the most disliked video of all time.
His videos got age-restricted and demonetized, and now his content has to be family-friendly just so that he can make any sort of income. I'm not a fan of his family-friendly material whatsoever.
YouTube has ruined my favorite channel, and that's all I have to say.
I think Logan deserved it. He should stick to making semi-family-friendly "Mama Luigi" videos.
The Newcomers
Breadwinners started out as a YouTube video?
..that explains a lot.
How could YouTube even allow this?
Yup, that's when Smosh became complete garbage. I mean, the "SHUT UP" intro has disappeared. Now they just make the worst and most generic vlogs of all time.
This one is very emotional because I have been bullied a lot and also had anxiety and depression before. She did not deserve to die because no one deserves to have their life taken early.
Bullying needs to end right now, physically, verbally, and online.
It was indeed devastating! May you rest in peace, Amanda Todd!
Yeah, this was pretty terrible.
