I know you'll most likely never see this, but I totally agree with you. Remember being young and liking his videos a lot. It's just not the same anymore (in my opinion) without him.

A man dies twice. Once when the life leaves his body, and again when the last person utters your name and remembers your existence. The King will never be forgotten. Rest in peace

the "he's smiling at me" really got me, man. I hope his kids feel like they can remember him and that he's still with them

I'm glad his kids have such a huge bank of videos of their dad to look back on and get to know him better.

He was a big part of my childhood. Where I used KZbin not just as entertainment but looked at videos on how to entertain myself apart from the screen. I loved recreating his projects and then showing my brother and my cousin's and we'd be entertained for hours on end

[@jcachu84]

"He's smiling at me." I started tearing up 😭

[@Adraeth]

Never forgetting the King. Rest in peace, knowing you've inspired an incredible amount of people.

[@JoseMartinez-cj5su]

I was 12-13 when I first started watching I’m 22 and I joined the marine corps as combat engineer because of of him, I still look at his videos for inspiration I still remember the day we lost him. My younger brother were in deep sadness; glad to see that see that his family overcame the heaviest losses In life and still have smile on their faces. It brings me joy, always in my heart The King Of Random 👑🏰🏰- sincerely a combat engineer in marine corps 😢🫡

I spent countless hours watching his videos when I was in highschool. Its always heart breaking to lose those that we need the most. 😢. Rest easy king.
