Once again stubbornness and raw talent make up for the absence of a reasoned approach:) Well Done!:)

[@18puppies91]

Randomly going outside and attempting crazy tasks is hilarious and so fun! I wanna do this. I think randomnes is the best form of entertainment/humour as there arent expectations.

[@its_clean]

Audio listeners Maya did not do a kickflip today

[@DUKE_of_RAMBLE]

_"A circle _*_CAN'T_*_ be crooked, idiot!"_ hahaha Fricken *_wrecked 'em!!_* 🤣🤣🤣😏

[@its_clean]

As a person who has worked corporate jobs most of my life I literally cannot comprehend this kind of employer/employee dynamic lmao

[@Cyrribrae]

Honestly, great stream idea. Exacting enough to be somewhat long and to engage all the rage viewers. But also simple enough to see real progress over the stream and to finish it in a session. Nice!

Remember this: a shinobi never buys clothes from Target

[@midnightz7]

I thought Maya's technique was really bad, and then I got bored and skipped ahead to the middle part where Connor was also there. After watching him running at the target and throwing wildly, Maya's technique didn't seem that bad.

[@alexf9472]

8 minutes into 3 hour stream: "I estimate that this will take 1 hour"

[@TheTurkey79]

She should try with a bowie knife full Arthur Morgan styley 🤠

[@lonewolfgirl20]

Unlike some of these comments it was fun watching someone go in completely blind trying to figure out a skill like throwing knives. Maya is awesome for even trying!

[@PhoenixPlayer404]

Next should be "bungie jumping until i dont scream" or something

[@BLove0]

Good video Shrez 👍3:03:08

[@DUKE_of_RAMBLE]

Aww man... did she give up on doing a Kickflip? 😢 _(I heard her say "it's been 10hrs and I got nowhere", but not sure if she mentioned elsewhere anything about it.)_

[@steveknows_420]

Sadly, looks like she won't be doing any kickflip anytime soon.. Majority in her chat has a way of discouraging her and pissing her off, even Ludwig said it

[@DUKE_of_RAMBLE]

@@steveknows_420 Yea, that's understandable, and unfortunate. She was making great progress, too, and I genuinely felt like she would've pulled it off. The problem with her approach to doing it live is that it gathered a lot of attention, which everyone tried to help, obviously in real time. Factor that in with people getting frustrated with her approach, and it ends up having people be snarky/hurtful. I think the better approach with these would be to outright ignore the actual chat, and if people want to provide feedback, do so through any of the TTS method (subbing, resub, bits, etc). That, or only read the YT comments after posting, since it's not in a live situation, where her own frustration amplifies what people are saying. There was plenty of valid help they were giving. Like learning the Ollie first, given the Kickflip is based on it. Or like in this scenario, where they're suggesting to hold it at the blade tip. It might be scary, but it's the easier method. She also ignored what even Connor gave her about distance (but admittedly, even that had a slight math flaw in his part). Anyways, I'm rambling... 😉 Thanks for filling me in!

[@Cyrribrae]

​@@DUKE_of_RAMBLEI wouldn't be surprised if she didn't want this "variety Wednesdays" to turn into solely skate streams. I wouldn't be surprised if she returns to kickflipping in the future when she wants something big.

[@emmadelaney3133]

chat was SO unhelpfull

[@lilabarrows]

Same way you throw an axe. Heavy part gets the wide orbit of the spin. 🔪

[@Ghandii]

good video mr shrez

[@A2Z83]

"im afraid" an hour later 1:09:20 maybe a healthy ammount of fear is good

[@MusicFandom]

You are so nice. The way you knock out the target before you stab it is very humane of you.

[@Moxx3]

Good video Shrek.

[@ryanrowe1975]

10 hours

[@MerlinDerMagier]

👌👍

[@NeonSkyFire]

I throw axes in a league and knives recreationally. Best things I could recommend are: 1) Find and mark a distance to throw from consistently 2) Figure out a comfortable but stable stance 3) Pay attention to the angle you hold the knife at as it affects how much rotation is needed to get the knife to hit right. 4) Be consistent with your power. Throwing too hard or too soft makes the spin required different despite the distance not changing. 5) Figure out where you need to hold the handle/blade before throwing to get consistent spin. 6) There are many variables to a throw (as mentioned prior) but once you get things dialed in through trial and error, it becomes muscle memory. Every missed shot holds a clue to why it missed.

I love that Maya tries new things because it is super fun. What ISN'T fun is that she does zero research then gets mad she doesn't know what she is doing then gets mad at chat for giving her suggestions. I personally like to watch people having fun; not being frustrated because of their own lack of foreseeable problems.

[@dannnnn4]

Don't take it so seriously, Maya isn't 😂😂 It's content, that's the content, going in completely blind to something then accomplishing it, you know, like completing a game.

[@DUKE_of_RAMBLE]

​@@dannnnn4 Well I just had a whole message typed out and YT's stupid fucking ads that mess with the screen, deleted all my text... So cliffnotes: - Even modern games have tutorials. - She should watch a 30sec clip on whatever subject, just to get a primer. - No sane person who has *_zero_* driving experience would jump into a race car and go racing. I applaud her and support her desire to have no experience before trying a task, but I don't think she should go in _completely_ blind. *[/2¢]*

[@steveknows_420]

​@@dannnnn4 22:33 here man, that's what she said

[@dannnnn4]

@@DUKE_of_RAMBLE yes because throwing knives at a target is comparable to driving a race car and racing with zero experience. What is this comment. Such a reddit-pilled illogical comment

[@dannnnn4]

@@steveknows_420 ay man if you agree with the original comment, stop watching Twitch. Everything is content and is supposed to be fun

[@CustomerRandom-kj5xn]

Please respect the girl always like a Republican, safety

1:04:55 my mom says only good things to girls

[@18puppies91]

Republicans are known for not respecting women. Not a single part of this comment makes sense

Throwing pointy thing at a pic of someone who kinda looks like Jeebis? 🫣🤣🤣🤣
