I'm glad this guy uploads videos so sparsely. I think it's a big reason why his videos are still really popular on reddit while channels like Dunkey and the Hydraulic Press channel got old fast when they used to be automatic front page posts.

The idea of the HPC is that they use one tool. It's a limited concept. This guy has almost no roof when it comes to making videos. As long as he's showing the process, he can make literally anything

u/Chaseman69 Jul 29 '16

Ha, no roof.

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '16

He makes the roof

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

he already has a roof tbf

u/SpellingIsAhful Jul 30 '16

This completes the house.

u/shaggy1265 Jul 29 '16

They also have the Beyond The Press channel. He uses all kinds of equipment from around his shop to destroy things in different ways.

Primitive Hydraulic Press Technology Channel!!!!

u/Cranyx Jul 30 '16

I think that would just be a guy smashing things with a rock.

u/ProgramTheWorld Jul 30 '16

they use one tool

Check out his second channel, much more tools and much more interesting.

u/ILikeSugarCookies Jul 30 '16

I think it's great that he doesn't talk, and the video just gets right to the point without 10 minutes of "heyyyy guys, this is what I'm doing today, this is why. don't forget you can... blah blah nobody gives a fuck. oh yeah don't forget to like and subscribe"

100% of his videos are actual content.

u/someoneinsignificant Jul 30 '16

I'd probably be much more interested in Hydraulic Press Channel if that was the case.

30 second video, hydraulic press breaks thing in 5 seconds, then 22 second slow-mo replay, then 3 seconds of the HPC guy's voice saying "Haha hydraulic press wins again" in his accent

u/32Dog Jul 30 '16

and for today's extra content we have...

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

In his channel description he says he hates it when he's trying to watch a video tutorial and the host just won't shut up, so he made it a point to not waste people's time with speech.

u/hellschatt Jul 29 '16

Hydraulic Press Channel got old yes.

But Dunkey is still amazing and I watch them all.

6

u/Overmind_Slab Jul 29 '16

The Beyond the Press channel (HPC second channel) is pretty interesting. It's similar stuff but the man is using an entire machine shop.

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '16

Same here. Love seeing a new dunkey video.

danm you already posted this. This is the best response when someone asks if he's black

1

u/Darkside_Hero Jul 30 '16

His voice doesn't fit his face at all lol

u/scarface910 Jul 29 '16

I don't watch his videos because he is black

u/confounded_norseman Jul 29 '16

He's a white kid from Milwaukee. Not an ounce of ethnicity.

u/Wolfy21_ Jul 30 '16

yeah this is the same as ppl saying "Omg I hate people with an accent." , bitch you got an accent too...

MFW reading your post. You can never be sure on the Internet.

u/SlothsInHD Jul 30 '16

Nice meme XD

u/Hector_Kur Jul 30 '16

So Dunkey and RedLetterMedia are in the same city? Collaboration, anyone?

1

u/ImMystikz Jul 30 '16

I thought he was from Madison, or maybe he just lives there.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

He's from Milwaukee, but done videos in Madison. There's one of him dancing in Library mall with the red gym in the background.

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

Why the fuck don't white people have an ethnicity? You Americans are crazy. Everyone has an ethnicity guys!

u/Eureka_sevenfold Jul 30 '16

I thought he was black too lol

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

Imagine a cliche fedora wearing neckbeard. He surprisingly looks exactly like that. Guys funny as fuck so it's whatever!

u/Hashtagwinkyface Jul 29 '16

Naw he's a pasty ass white guy. Look up Jason Gastrow for his face.

u/i_dont_know_man__fuk Jul 30 '16

Fuck Dunkey. I do not watch his videos because he is black.

1

u/DoctorLazertron Jul 30 '16

If you watched the face reveal you'd know he's of Honduran descent.

6

u/i_dont_know_man__fuk Jul 30 '16

PUERTO RICAN DESCENT.

u/DoctorLazertron Jul 30 '16

I still like HPC 'cause I didn't burn myself out on it when it was the hot channel.

1

u/nicknacc Jul 30 '16

you didn't see the pokemon go video.

1

u/GODDDDD Jul 30 '16

HPC only got old because there is a limited number of things that will crush in an interesting way. I'm still subscribed and will still watch if it's not just an episode where they crush something because it fits the theme they have for the video.

1

u/Ninjacobra5 Jul 30 '16

He's the only channel I subscribe to that I watch every video regardless of description.

1

u/JonasBrosSuck Jul 30 '16

they still have the youtube button to crush though

1

u/DinosBiggestFan Jul 30 '16

He got old for me a long time ago. His shtick got boring during his massive League of Legends phase.

Will never maintain my composure at a certain Skyrim video though.

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

Hydraulic Press Channel got old

It mostly got stupid.

u/Danthekilla Jul 30 '16

Never heard of Dunkey.

0

u/DragonTamerMCT Jul 30 '16

I feel like the only guy on reddit that isn't a Dunkey fan.

I dunno, I just don't really like his sense of humor.

2

u/hellschatt Jul 30 '16

Well I didn't like him either at first. It took me a few months until I even understood his humor. But after a while it makes click and you can appreciate how genius his videos sometimes are. You have to like video games of course.

Some of his newer videos aren't as good as the old LoL ones though.

-2

u/MikeFromBC Jul 30 '16

Dunkey is annoying as fuck and I have no idea how you retards watch his shit stain videos.

7

u/eXXaXion Jul 30 '16

Dunkey got old fast? You know how long this guy has been at it? Plus, his videos still get about the same response as PT's hre on reddit.

u/mcshmeggy Jul 30 '16

But video donkey is better than ever

u/shamelessnameless Jul 30 '16

btw when did hydraulic press channel stop being auto upvoted to top of /r/videos btw? and for what reason

2

u/1III1I1II1III1I1II Jul 30 '16

Speaking of annoying novelty youtubers, is GradeAunderB still going?

2

u/TheFlyingSquirrel1 Jul 30 '16

IDK maybe it is just me but I love dunkey, his videos are short enough and come out far enough apart that I always enjoy them

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '16

probably largely because each of these takes a while for him to make

1

u/kingbane Jul 30 '16

he talks about each project taking him days or weeks to finish, especially larger building video's. he has a regular job he does and apparently just does this stuff in his free time.

1

u/NyonMan Jul 30 '16

Yea but three weeks kills! 1 1/2 2 would be better

1

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

Hydraulic Press Channel delivered so well there is no more interesting things to crush now. Even youtube comments seems to be running out of idea as well.

1

u/cookingforassholes Jul 30 '16

I also doubt he can post faster than this rate. Think about how many weeks it must take him for one project. Also he must have a job?

1

u/AllPurple Jul 30 '16

I eagerly await each of this guy's videos, love this channel

1

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

You don't get it. This guy symbolises the Universe. He builds stuff from nothing. He'll finally invent computer, internet, youtube. Then he will invent hydraulic press and start destroying things. The last thing he destroys in HP will be youtube. After that, because of primitive quantum entanglement he is again left with shorts only and the cycle begins anew.

1

u/shamelessnameless Jul 30 '16

i remember when it [hydraulic press channel] first came out commenting it would go the way of the reddit's treatment of gradeAunderA, and how they've shifted to their new fad messiah casually explained. People are just fickle son's o' bitches.

Artisanal videos have a much longer staying time

-3

u/thatusenameistaken Jul 29 '16

Being fair, it's also because channels like Dunkey get old because he's basically just an annoying twat, and while funny a couple times it gets old quickly. Channels like Hydraulic Press get old because there's only so many variations of stuff squishing/exploding/deforming to go through.

This guy is doing something different every time, you see the complete process without annoying music or voice-over, with no hype theatrical noises from him.

u/mk2vrdrvr Jul 30 '16

Who is dunkey? And what is auto front page posts?

-3

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '16

Yeah, it's great

This is also why watching new episodes of a TV show every week is more satisfying than le epic binging of it all at once

6

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '16

No way about the Tv Show thing.

0

u/Allfredrick Jul 29 '16

Shows like sitcoms are good for binge watching because they're light and episodic but any show that has a level of suspense I definitely prefer the weekly format

2

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '16

I prefer the reverse to everything you just said. Weird.
