How the fuck does this guy have a career after the suicide forest video?

When you're rich you get lots of extra chances.
The man has also been involved in numerous scams.
I'm obviously not his demographic, but my wife (a teacher) says that there are loads of kids 10 and upwards that love Logan Paul and KSI. I think the suicide forest thing predates many of them, or they just don't know/care about it.
You're not concerned about the multi million dollar Bitcoin scam or just didn't know? Dudes up to all sort of shady shit

Children watch his videos. Kids don't fucking care.
I have recently started watching some streamers. The suicide forest stuff is just par for the course. The entire genre is largely based around doing things you aren’t supposed to do for content.
In this world of marvel movies, conspiracy theories, and other unreal distractions, there is something both addictive and refreshing about just seeing an unfiltered idiot who is fucking around and finding out. I actually think watching streamers has made me a little more socially confident. If they can be that reckless and have it turn out ok most of the time, then maybe I don’t have to be anxious about things that might happen in public when I’m being reasonably careful.

They only did this because they are sitting on a bunch of inventory they can't sell, so they used it for marketing, check out LegalEagle on youtube he has a 20 minute video on the lawsuit they are facing, they agreed a contract to have a custom factory line built then backed off when sales plummeted
You mean tax deductions.... More lucrative than just biting the loss.

It’s a win win they can fulfill their contractual minimum orders, that they failed to reach last months and can write these off. Win-Win situation.
Isn't prime caffeinated? That's dehydrating and not at all helpful to people who need water...
I don't think the main goal is to actually help people. Most likely PR/brand awareness and tax write offs.

The cans have caffeine. The bottles don't. Pic looks like the bottles.
Still tons of sugar though.

Well, they can't sell it, may as well get a tax break on it.
True fact once I was getting a drink with my younger brother and he asked me to get him a Prime, kid took about three sips before he gave up on the rest and got a glass of water, lmao.
These people lost everything. Maybe we should monetize a video about sending a truckload of bibles and coyote urine! We're super awesome, y'all!
Wtf is prime?
sugar water sold by Youtubers
Zoomer Gatorade.
Zoomers: "don't put this evil on me. Blame the alphas"
Alphas: "I didn't ask for this shit"
Owned by millennials, marketed to zoomers, primarily consumed by gen alpha.

I broke down and bought a pack of Prime to try recently after seeing it everywhere, even in the hands of people I don't associate with the whole Logan Paul circus.
It tasted like piss and chemicals. If you're at all sensitive to the taste of sucralose, it's like drinking battery acid. I simply cannot fathom how it is as successful as it is.
edit: typo
It's got electrolytes, its what hurricane survivors crave. Brought to you by Truth Social.
I don't think it's that kind of drink. At least Brawndo mutilates your thirst. Prime is an energy drink.

Kids, their taste buds are still developing so when they taste it and don't instantly vomit they think it tastes good. After that their taste buds are permanently shifted towards those types of flavors, making the problem worse. Should be illegal.

It’s got what victims crave.
It’s got electrolytes
It tastes like oompa loompas spitting in my mouth.
Oompa loompa doopa dee dit
He wants to swallow some of our spit
Oompa loompa doopa dee dah
Aim at his mouth and go hawk tuah
Gooooddddammit, I actually didn't mind the PRIME electrolyte powder for when I'm sweating like mad (brought it to Burning Man this year), but Logan goddamn Paul owns it? Fuck I hate that guy
FYI they advertise it as "electrolytes" because it's full of potassium and has next to no sodium, which is the main thing you lose when sweating, and they do that to say it's sodium free while still having "electrolytes"
Right, Gatorade, a long standing "sports drink" has 12% of your DV of sodium or something for the reason you stated. Fuck logan paul and fuck his "get the kids to get their parents to buy this" garbage

I would rather drown myself than drinking that cat piss.
Also they don't even do it out of charity. Prime, being as dogshit as it is, is selling terribly. So they are giving it away instead of having to spend money getting rid of it. Would not expect nothing else from scammer logan and soulless KSI
I couldn't find where I saw/heard it, but I swear I saw a blurb about PRIME drinks containing polyfluoroalkyl, which is what allows jackets and tents to repel water..
I did however find a Consumer Reports article.
Eh, if someone comes up with such a comparison it immediately tells that they don't know what they're talking about. Like, linseed oil was also used for waterproofing (oilskin), yet it is quite healthy. Other applications/occurences of a substance simply don't tell you anything about it being good or bad for you.
There's HYDROGEN in the WATER, the stuff that BURNED in the HINDENBURG and they want you to DRINK IT?!?

Absolute piss. My 8 year old bought some and I tried it. It's like they tried to make it taste awful.
Great, so anyone allergic or sensitive to coconut water is fucked. Great job Mr. Influencer. If you can't do aid right, don't get in the way of the professionals.
Anyone who is allergic to coconut has my sincere pity, because coconut might be my favorite of all flavors.
