About Me: "Dustin and Near Death Experiences" [Episode 1]

[@jeremysiegel10]

I appreciate that someone is willing to open up like this especially to such a big audience. Tragic stuff, normally I dont like to listen to dramatic life tales, but for some reason you are compelling in a way that inspires me. The way I see it, adversity breeds strength, and thats something I dont feel Ive experienced enough to be a strong person. I think that people with dramatic backgrounds like yours are stronger for it and I wish I was as strong sometimes

[@wegotcleankicks]

this almost made me cry. i can relate to so much of this, aside from the deaths. this is why you're my favorite comentator, because you're a real person. i love you pwn, i do. you havent given up in your life, you are a damn inspiration. please keep going.

[@squatzandoatz92]

Dude, it's powerful listening to your life. It's just another reason i want to help out kids as a teacher, and help them overcome.

[@indymoir6005]

Dustin i just wanna i say i completely respect you, i think that you are the most knowledgeable person i know and i think that you are the biggest hero of my life. my life is bad like yours but every time you post a video i light up. i am your biggest fan and you lead me through life. Thankyou

[@Perrylyzer]

Pwn the reason i respect you is that you put a smile on and your happy, even though all the stuff in your past, you dont let that stuff drag you down. I can tell you genuinly enjoy what you do and are happy with your life

[@TheQuinnXY]

thanks man, it made me realise how much luck I have in life and how precious it really is.

[@Zilongane]

Dustin "RESPECT" man really for sharing abit of ur personal life with the world. Had a very upsetting life as a kid myself but things turned out well eventually. Just keep ya head up m8 :).

[@TheRecon42]

Respect to you too bro, it's hard to say about it. I'm 15 now and was suicidal and self harming since I was 11 until last year, well done for being able to move past it :)

[@MrSerious2k]

thanks dustin for opening to us subercribers ... i don´t know if its hard for you to speak about certain stuff in your lifetime but I and hopefully all other subcribers really thanks you for this series :D keep doing what your doing ^^

[@MrJesseAllen]

When I first saw you, i saw a regular, true man. Your life story is sooooo amazing.

[@CHARCUTERIEGOREGRIND]

Love the chat towards the beginning of the video. But really I love this kind of video cuz it let's me see who I'm really listening to.

[@fredrikolsson5569]

Real big of u to do this series and I am totally gonna follow every episode! Already watching your show fulltime but still, really looking forward to more episodes! All love from Sweden bro!

[@nixon24hr]

you're a brave man to put yourself out there like this my good man. bravo

[@11djridinger]

ur right things like that can upset a small child. Like if they want to do something nice and it gets wrecked you feel like u failed or something like that

[@TheSergeantSeal]

I admire u of how much u opened up about ur life to us . Love it bro !

[@Lerchs]

I salute you, Dustin. You seem to be a great person. I wish i had friends like you.

[@XzRTImpulse]

we arent very wealthy at all but what we lack in money we more than make up for in closeness as a family i love them and im blessed

[@contemplationstation87]

Hey Pwn, respect, everyone goes through bad times but you seem to have headbutted your way through them and done well for yourself...keep the awesome videos coming...love your commentaries!

[@frost911]

good series, i appreciate it a lot since talking to a broad audience about the difficult issues in life is not easy... keep on the good work bro

[@ThEBlObGuY]

Pwn i have just gained so much respect for you it is unreal, you truly are a really good man

[@MrNunoma]

Best idea u ever had 'Dustin'. This is now by favorite series on the planet. I'll be watching for sure!

[@Pass-On-By]

Congrats on the new series bro.cant be easy opening up like that but you're doing a stellar job so far.keep it comin.

[@Jacla1234]

1 min into the vid and i already knew that this series will be awesome. Keep up the good and high quality fpwn

[@seif.z]

pwn i always knew that you where not a normal person from the real talk videos you are helping others teaching them life xp ty for all of this i really admire your work and i usually just like and favorite the video before even watching it because it is you in it

[@XXXIshaqus]

thats exactly what i was thinking, they would never get rid of ads even after loads of people have said they hate it.

[@tyk137]

Hey Dustin. You are one hell of a boss. I can't even imagine growing up like you did. You are seriously one of my biggest Idol. :)

[@heathhalbrooks2295]

Thanks for sharing man. This may sound stupid, but it means a lot to me, as a viewer, to hear about you. Appreciate you, sir.

[@TheSoccerFanatic11]

just found my new favourite show. They're were a few funny moments, a couple of sad moments and the gameplay was great :)

[@eWayxREAPzzz]

Honestly, I like this Pwn just as much as the other. I'm looking forward to learning more about you, Dustin.

[@royalfox2288]

Respect for you man! I had a hard time when i was young to, it sucks...

[@MrPandaStorm]

Pwn, I am usually a hardass when it comes to liking and favouriting, but this deserves a like and favourite. You don't often see this side of commentators but that is why you are awesome Pwn. Thanks for the amazing video.

[@datdragonslaya]

I remember that when I was 4, my house was struck by lightning, and I ran around the house joyfully screaming "BOOOOOOOOM!" It was amazing.....

[@omahaba]

damn Pwn, just damn. those first couple of years are just so full of stuff. looking forward to the next episode

[@Fumbless98]

I'm sorry all those things happened to you pwn im going through the same thing as you are right now it's not easy but good for you for getting through it.

[@SteelerFanatic93]

Bro this is deep. This is going to be a great series.

[@Joshyouare94]

i love this series pwn, makes my stale heart open up a bit and i actually am really listening and understanding what you're saying. i can't wait for the next episode to see what else has happened in your life (not that you want to relive it :\)

[@scubasteve9525]

All these story's just make me respect you more I kinda grew up the same split parents not knowing who to trust you know. But yeah bro good luck with everything

[@l4dpariah]

Love this so far, man. Can't wait to hear more about you, bro.

[@5YmpIylikeMe]

man I must say you are somebody I really look up to

[@Watsitsname08]

Thanks for sharing your stories with me and the rest of KZbin. I appreciate it :)

[@TheStreetmaniac]

You open your self to random people on the internet that you don't know.Respect.

[@heathen317]

I love how amidst all this serious talk, I look up at the chat box to read "I MADE STOOL ON YOUR MOM'S CHEST".... Pwn, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Hats off to you good sir.

[@IAmZombrex]

I feel your pain Pwn. Hope you have a brighter and better for your family and your bby Pwnstar! Love you pwn!

[@TheNicBarn]

mad kudos for opening up like this pwn! :) with each video u just become that much more awesome of a person to me. btw....i need more dayz...ur best videos BY FAR! the games alot better than it was a month ago too.

[@Virk1997]

Your story about jumping out the window reminds me of when I was three and jumped off a bunk bed and grabbed a balloon thinking it was going to keep me up. I swallowed my tounge. LITERALLY

[@xas444]

listen pwn, we all (in the teenage age) feel like we are hopeless and we think that we and only we face the world in a hard way, but the truth is, we all feel the same way. for example me, i have a family, we have plenty of money, but i still find myself depressed. the truth is our minds search and find something bad about our lives just to motivate us.

[@HanMasho]

There really aren't many people out there with enough courage to tell everyone so much information about their personal life and childhood. In fact, the only other YT commendatory I've seen do something like this is Drift0r.

[@BizzltT]

Loving these videos man, keep em coming. I regard you as a friend even if I've never met you, much love.

[@sniperkill1995]

I paralyzed my mother when she was pregnant with me. I remember living in a big 2 story house for the first 2 or 3 years of my life. My grandmother died a few weeks before I was born My father he was a roofer and a drunk was put in control of the house he was a smart guy and kind guy but he was a drunk. We moved to Florida in a trailer and few months later I got put in foster care for 2 years. Then we moved to a small apartment with little money I pretty much grew up in a variety of enviorments.

[@frogman2324]

takes balls to put yourself out there like this. giving this a like out of respect

[@logankerlee]

I loved the video man. It was real touching. Thank you for posting it. I will definitely be making a video set like this if I can summon the courage to do so. Well done man. :) I'm looking forward to your future updates with this.

[@geekforgamingdk]

You, Sir, have my respect for sharing this with a bunch of strangers. Pretty fun to think that i am 35 years and my biggest hero in life is a 23year old gamer ;)

[@otari]

You're aunt Laura story really touched me, so sad.

[@PhotoArtBrussels]

You've got a brave man inside of you Pwn ... (in I don't mean that that in a Pwn way, but in a Dustin way)... Thank you for sharing "you"!!

[@SpringZOneR]

Much respect bro, and hella good round too. Will tune in for the next episodes.

[@bobothehobo23]

the part with you getting hit by the van was sad but just the things you said made me chuckle a bit lol sorry. but i love this series its really cool. keep it up pwn! :)

[@chipmunk449]

Thank you for telling us this it brings us the subs to more of a personal level. :)

[@ImJagga]

Dustin, you are awesome. I love your video´s and have much respect for you. Keep on!

[@darktrexcz]

damn pwnstar you really opened up... alot of this reminds me of my childhood, i feel ya brother. cant wait for the next episode.

[@Sleepininurmomsbed]

An excellent commentator and a stand up guy this is why you tube was created

[@danure]

Appreciate the video PWN. My son and I were on a map with you last night and I had a hard time pulling him away from the game. You were all he could talk about by the end of the night :)

[@Kid0139]

I didn't even watched the video I just listened too the commentary that just proves how good of a commentator pen is

[@red83093]

1st 20 seconds and i couldnt stop listening ik a lot of those problems sadly but its good that you do this

[@Vitty]

PWn, to be honest here, you one of the single people ill be glad to listen to for 21 minutes straight, I'd love even more. I look at you like a big internet bro man, I mean, we only have 7 years in between us. Im glad I have this opportunity to get to know you more personal. And yeah, you are going to be a great dad, it takes a lot of balls to say what you have said on the webz out in the open

[@paolomendoza7706]

Same here. If I can't kill, I spot or suppress. The little box over people's head's when you're a support means that they need ammo, so put a box down where it's needed and not where you need it. In those few actions I'm already PTFO'ing more than alot of people.

[@AdvocateofOdin]

I was listening the entire time, p.s. rain is awesome. I stand in it

[@ageekyguygamer]

ugh Adblock plays the ad but you won't see it so it just is an instant ad skip that you can do on the youtube videos (that you have to normally wait 1-5 seconds)

[@AIRBORNPREDATOR]

I was weeks late and tore my bladder with my shoulder

[@r3publ1cC0MMAND0]

damn Pwn just wanna say i respect the hell out of ya, long story short i have delt with alot of the same shit you did from everythin from money, family loss, just all sorts of issues and i admit as you might know it was real tuff to grow up in these situations but shit happens and you get through and come out a better person, even now i got a girl in my life who puts up wit my shit and i feel real lucky for that, might be goin far but in a way i gues i culd say then and now i know how ya feel

[@MrALI3N8]

Dustin loved the video so much really feel like i know you a little better keep these up dude and thanks for sharing i really feel that we connected !! NO HOMO !! :)

[@ProdbyStardust]

This is some powerful stuff Dustin. Keep it up.

[@shibashibaa6665]

Very emotional video Dustin. Respect!

[@tuomasni]

Excellent stuff Pwn! It takes a lot of guts to tell the internet your own personal history...

[@FockJewsModders]

Oh my god, pwn. This is great. Listened to this almost nonstop as I made my Mac n cheese.

[@haufbraus]

Always look on the bright side of life..

[@HarmfulDesign]

We have a lot in common, Pwn. I was born in April of '89. My mom raised by herself, too. I had tubes in my ears as well as problems with ear infections growing up (I had my tonsils removed, too) Oh, and I think Dusty is an awesome name. =]

[@MrEazert]

Love it, great to hear about my fav youtuber!

[@MrBeastzone]

i watch videos mainly for the commentary not the gameplay. idk where you got this idea of talking about yourself but its great!

[@TylerHFATALK1LLZz]

I am 13 and I luv your vids man... I had a lot of dad issues in the past until he went to jail

[@xavosix]

its true, my W/L is all F up because most of the time my team mates decide to go recon and stay on the back of the map "sniping" and don't play the objective.

[@Tthel90]

yes Pwn i really wanted you to do this series your my gamming idol man

[@leftwardmp18]

[@jessechuff]

I feel for you man. I kept getting distracted by your hilarious chat messages, though hahaha

[@tobias1c]

[@23leborn]

[@chunkyboy19]

[@UgtKNCKDthFCKot]

i cant wait to see all of these videos, we will all eventually be your best friend

[@HaveButOneLife]

[@RetroWarhead]

[@panayiotislouka1405]

man i know how you feel i had all most the same prombles like you at my chilhood my parents where divorec and stuff like that :(

[@brosifstalin2701]

you have amazing courage pwn. mad respect.

[@Italiankid1029]

Hey pwn, I had an experience just like yours when I was 7. My mom was having a brain anurysm (I have absolutly no idea how to spell it) so I had to run across the street to get my neighbor. As much as I hate to say it, I'm sorta glad that we have that in common cause otherwise we come from completely different places.

[@issiahmix10]

My family has alot of money but i still have anxiety problems and deoresion

[@DEVGRUxDELTA]

I was paying attention up until 6:14 and I was fixated on the chat box conversation for two minutes, had to rewind.

[@legacyxblood401]

when i was 5 i did the same thing loved to be in the rain would sit in my drive way till it stoped and it camed me down. And i was diegnosed with ADHD at a yong age. make crazy crap as i kid

[@angeldonho]

Your the only person I know that can make me feel not to sad about a sad story by saying funny shit in between Duck Swag All Day

[@MIL069er]

Love the videos man, keep them coming!

[@Ethieslol]

My 2 near death experience was when I was twelve it was in one day I triped in the middle of the road and a car ran over my fingers broke all of my fingers and while a I was at the hospital cord twisted around my neck and I chocked do death and was revived it's pretty weird wakeing up with a nurse wearing a dress 2 sizes small (motor boat them for days) with defibrolators

[@JoshTehG4m3r]

I wish there were harsher laws against drunk driving, my mom raised me by herself and she was killed by a drunk driver when i was 10., im currently 15 turning 16 this summer.

[@kronikally420]

dude you are brutally honest, and that was oddly enough a consuming story..very interesting..i have seen a couple vids you were in with LvLcap but i just stumbled across this while watching race videos
