Why Does Australia Love Spanian? | The Life Story of Spanian [REUPLOAD]

[@Spanian]

What happen lad? Why did you have to re upload?

[@alphakye]

KZbin age-restricted the original video after a day so it no longer got recommended, it stopped the viewership, and they took all the ad revenue. That video is still up but thought i'd try re-upload it slightly altered and see if it gets picked up in the algorithm again.

[@michealjones224]

His showing Australia what it is! Not like the pricks in suits think and try to tell us all it's like, as a 42 yr old fella that's had a few troubles with the blue, I have absolutely nothing but respect for spanian, cheers spanian

As someone who grew up in houso around hard untcays like Spanian, I'm so happy to see his growth and success. Pure willpower and an open mind. Oge.

[@modfus]

Spanian is gifted with an unusually high level of charisma. Honestly, it's hard not to like him. I wish him all the best with his changed life.

[@ChrisJensen-se9rj]

An unusually high level of charisma? You mean your being taken in by the endless "broing" and "brahing", and pointless shit like "hood oos"? That makes you SIMPLE MINDED.

[@maryannesmith1392]

I see someone say he appeals to the lower society, I’m not one of those…but what I enjoy is he shows who he is and makes me laugh at the things he does. What’s in the passed is just that, I don’t look at his passed but what he is now. He shows us the real world , not what the media wants us to see. I’m a kiwi in New Zealand, a grandmother and I really enjoy his vlogs . Also know one has the right to judge others.

Hi Spanian, I'm an old lady who has had the odd problem in life. What you've taught me is if you dwell on the past you'll get bogged down by the memories, it's a life well lived if you learn from these experiences. Thank you so much.

[@truesouth4784]

The defining moment for me was his Cambodia vlog, in particular his reaction to S21 and the Killing Fields. I have been there and had a similar reaction. I think everyone does.

[@upyourgame8549]

💯 brv, I wanted to go there, after seeing that vid, I couldn't even watch it all, hit my heart hard just watchn Spanian there. I no longer want to visit that place.

[@truesouth4784]

@@upyourgame8549I hear what you're saying but if you get the opportunity, you should still visit. It is a dark place and a reminder of the treachery that humans can commit upon each other. After that, go to Siem Reap and visit the numerous temples in the Angkor Wat complex to cleanse your soul. Cambodia is an amazing place and even after the horror the people have had to endure, they are the most humble, courteous and affectionate you will ever meet.

[@Zion-Bear]

How come Aussies cry in Cambodia but Australia is full of killing fields but no one cares. So many parts of Sydney are built on top Indigenous grave yards and Genocide sites.. Selective emotion aye

Enjoyed this. Spanian is so easy and intriguing to watch. I hope he continues to stay out of trouble, get used to life outside and continue being a good citizen. It must be hard.

Good clips mate👍😎

I just discovered your channel, great videos ❤

[@miss3305]

I really love Spanian. I came late to the party. Probably been watching him for about a year now. He is a genuinely likeable person from what I see of him. Loved the "It's All Eats" series. I get bummed out every time he is close to where I live and I miss out on meeting him. For context I am a 59 yr old grandma and like his mum I was a teen mum. Any one of my sons could have gone down the same street as Spanian, 2 of them did do time. I am just forever thankful that weed was their vice and not harder drugs. Best of luck to him and well done on turning his life around.

[@GrahamrobertGoldsworthy-sd5tm]

Total respect the man's turned his life around and that's the main thing go brother keep up the good work BRUV 💪🏻👍🏻💯👌🏻

[@MonstaMarty]

Great video... God bless Spanian... an inspirational human being... people, especially kids who think they don't have a chance should be motivated to do the right thing. Life is never easy, but don't be a victim, we all have choices... make them wisely and don't blame your childhood, your friends, your family, etc etc... Take every opportunity and remain humble and righteous.

[@merylnbredican5254]

He says he is a diagnosed psychopath but his empathy in his Cambodia vlogs makes me question that to be fair, he's such a silly fecker I love it.

[@jennh7024]

I wonder who diagnosed him with psychopathy?

[@mitch2620]

Spanian is true to the core. There is no bullshit with him. It sounds daft, but honesty is a very rare thing nowadays. Politicians should listen to the lad. Society would be in a much better place.

[@DeneSimpson]

To me it's like he's seen that people think they must be how they have been told, educated, punished or civilised to be and are unhappy because of it. You can see he used to be the same and he pities them. I've not watched this vid but have watched some of his. Some bits I like, sometimes he annoys me - he doesn't give a shit. That's the point. I don't know his past, only he does, I don't judge 'cause I don't know. What I do know is that he's mentally freed himself. Maybe during his break in prison. I've seen some comments calling it "poverty porn". It's not, that's on mainstream tv, it's just that most of the people in poverty suffer like he used to, from limiting beliefs and dwindling power. He's there showing what it's like to suffer from the decisions of politicians. They absolutely should be listening to the lad! But they won't. At least those with any empathy won't - it'd "affect their decision making". I suppose the opposite would be "politician porn" - excuse the horrible thoughts that might induce - but his videos wouldn't work showing those who "believe they can do whatever they want". They are suffering too, rejoicing in pleasing their benefactors, whilst trying to ignore the suffering they cause in order to do so. Unfortunately these days both extremes are there to benefit the very elusive very rich. Maybe videos of politicians and the rich being honest would also help society be a better place. If you see any of those let me know! Most that try to make those get punished pretty quickly. E.g. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYrXZXaue8uEi7c

[@RealReverse13]

I came across him by random last year. The first ever video I watched of his was his It's All Eats best Sydney kebabs. It's good to see that he's past that bad lifestyle.

[@anthonydanaher2146]

bloke is genuine AF most ppl judging him but he looked at himself and made the change how often have you look at yourself in the mirror and judged your self seriously and admitting you faults honestly respect to the bloke smart guy hope he can help others and inspire the new generation to get out of the trap and change the cycle of jail drugs poverty and anti social behavior love his energy its infectious the into the hood reminded me of ross kemp but RESPECT mate also loved the content keep up the good work cheers

The fact that you can't even say a drug name is a testament to how stupid this platform has become. Rumble still seems untouched by this garbage, better option for sure.

[@jimbylad7046]

Unapologetic, stands by what he says and doesn't not care. That is what is so captivating. People love to cry about how he is a bad influence and a clown etc etc. But he could not care less and that is powerful.

[@OU-qe5pp]

You got to pay credit where credit is due, he’s found his target audience of mostly socially and morally compromised youth who look up to him to seek some sort of validation, what these poor soles don’t realise is that they are the butt of his jokes and he uses them as his cash cows, affording him a very affluent lifestyle.

@mrtrik71 making something great? Organizing a "hit" on Big Kash to silence him? I mean, if Big Kash is talking through his arse cheeks then why bother trying to get rid of him? That's proof positive that Big Kash is telling the truth about Spanian and his activities in Glebe abusing underage girls

Come on Bighead Spanian Let's see you "walk around" a GENUINELY DANGEROUS area! Like a " blacks only" gang area in an American city. Or a "cartel town" in South America. Or a "favella" in Brazil. You won't last five hours before someone shoots you, carrying on with your "bro" and "brah" bullshit.

Lol. The only reason I even I even know who he is, I have three teenaged sons. They’re 18, 17 and 13 and (seriously) they’re more mature, have more insight and foresight than he does. They had a pretty rough upbringing too so his violence and thuggish behaviour can’t be excused because of his childhood or poverty.

[@emilyroseayres84]

@@NathanMitchell-qk7nwI think you meant “I don’t see anybody…” etc. English grammar 101. The mark of a great person is not based off whether of not they have a following, popularity, fame or fortune. The best men I know, top blokes who work hard and are incredibly fathers, loyal and loving husbands and friends, they live their whole lives without feeling the need to make noise about what they’ve overcome and accomplished. This Spanian guy is no good. He’s really judgemental of the people who live in the communities he visits and is so ignorant that he doesn’t even bother to do research into the history of these places. When he bought all that alcohol for the Indigenous man in Alice Springs…horrible! No idea what alcohol does to those communities.

[@southern-samurai]

Its poverty porn.

[@crowandcrystal]

Simplistic overview. It’s not easy growing up in poverty, you learn to find joy in dark places and the community that is built isn’t necessarily “clean” by greater societies standards but it is strong and close, and a means to survive. I grew up Houso and am out now but I understand why Spanian does what he does.. These communities by and large are invisible to blue collar and white collar families.. and we have felt that way. Spanian showcases our lives, the places we live or lived in, how we related and found connection with each other.. how we have found normalcy within an environment of so much instability. The communities we were placed within wasn’t chosen by us.. It felt like what it was, a group of undesirable’s thrown together from all walks of life of life.. As kids we walked into our local schools being teased and laughed at by blue collar brats who wouldn’t have survived a night in our homes… It’s therapy, it’s storytelling, it’s remembering the kids who didn’t survive their teen years… It’s just fucking human.

[@angiedeans6410]

He shows kids these days now know how your life will look like if you choose to follow this path. And we all have a moment in our lives we all have, that lightbulb that says if you dont change you will die or end up in jail. Good on you mate for showing us what real life is really like on the other side. As i have had that moment in life. Hopefully i stay sober.

[@Whippz123]

Not sure if that was a snip of another video where he was describing the school siege. Here he says only went to one class and that only two tradies with shovels came up to him.. but I watched another sit down interview of him (went for about an hour or so done by a guy from the UK I think) and he described it as he went room to room about 4-5 classes kicking open the doors, chasing kids on the school oval and out onto the streets then eventually got rushed by a whole bunch of tradies who got into him..? 😂 bit of exaggerating going on maybe..? Still like watching his vids though! 🤙🏽

[@DebbieWatts-of8jn]

My favourite episode of Spanian is when he's at the place where they make lindt chocolate. He's standing next to a creek and then squats down with his back to the camera . After a couple of minutes he turns around Nd says, " how's that ? From prison cell to standing here" It wasn't those words he said but the look on his face. Spanian, in that moment realised he was as good as anyone else and that prison didn't define him , prison was a bad choice for a part of his life , When people get put down as a child they learn to believe it must be true. Spanian realises he's as good as any other person on the planet, he believes in himself. He backs himself. Debbie NSW
