Man, i need to restart my youtube career.

I opened a channel back in 2006, i was buying and unboxing game and consoles, building computers and installing upgrades. I started going some-what viral, my videos will reach 100k views (which was significant for 2006-07).
I did this by adding some hip and urban style to it, mixed with some corny acting. To my surprise, people loved it. I and a few you-tubers were the first to start that whole game unboxing and computer building theme. My channel grew fast because it was unusual to see a Black dude doing extreme computerized and gaming stuff.

I got a full time, found other hobbies and the channel slowly declined. Damn, i should have kept it up.

Oh well, i'm really thinking about going back.

Do it! And you have an amazing voice!!!

If you have a channel called "Black dude doing nerdy stuff", I'd take a look...

Can be something as stupid as "A girl changing her own oil in a bikini" and it could go viral on all the car forums (not just BMW).

Keyword being bikini.

Meh, I do car videos and videos in a bikini doing water sports but I just can't combine the two. Too weird.

You're loss. Hell even I could probably get a million views if I changed my oil in a bikini.

Can that be the next thing after ID pics? Changing oil in bikinis? Unsure if it would be hilarious or horrifying... Probably both.

Edit: for the dudes.

Unfortunately I'm way too busy watching all the results for "bikini oil change" on youtube. Spoiler alert: There's a lot of bikinis and a lot of oil...

You spend $3-400 on a misting shower head that does the same thing as a $10 misting shower head: turn your shower into an energy-wasting, uncomfortable, evaporative cooler that's inferior at washing you.

Definitely targeted at the more money than sense crowd.

How is that related?
