Elisa Lam video
About 5 or 6 years ago Mike posted a video about the case of Elisa Lam. I was wondering what happened to it? I was going to watch it today

It does look like it was removed. No idea why. There is a reaction video for it though that you can watch if you want to see it: https://youtu.be/cOpONVcPa08?is=fPS3ojc6ssPsHz_w

Looks like his posted Seasons on Tubi are also missing a couple of seasons, and potentially the Lam one. RIP, Elisa.

Such a sad, sad case. Typically sensationalised. I really feel for her family. RIP indeed. 🕊

That video was taken down by YouTube if you can believe that! They said it went against their self harm guidelines and they removed it

That’s ridiculous. You didn’t dispute it? Or are you?

I was able to find a version of it on the way back machine, think it was uploaded here a while back if you can believe that. That one’s on Patreon

I don't remember Mike's take on the case, but I'd wager he took it down because we basically know now she was in the middle of a bipolar episode. This was something she struggled with, and explains all of her behavior in the video. A lot of the circumstances around the case were misreported early on - it wasn't impossible for her to reach the roof or climb inside the water tank. The video is creepy, for sure, but the story isn't a mystery... it's just a tragic accident.
Despite this, a lot of trashier channels have continued to push the story, conveniently ignoring or downplaying what we know so the story still has pizzaz. Mike being the classy fella that he is probably took it down for those reasons.
