The first trick was to delete all the hundreds of videos that didn't come true
The second trick was to snip the videos that did come true down to the actual date. Originally the videos were 30 or so minutes long with the name of the person repeated with dates for every day of the year. When someone died you snip the video down to the 7 second clip with the name and the date they died. This doesn't alter the date that the original video was loaded.

I thought that. It's highly dubious he caught it on the trip.
He had more than one negative result after returning. He developed pneumonia, as poorly geriatrics often do, a little while after his return and underwent treatment. Only then came the covid, after he was already sick, and hospitalized.
But, yeah, I really don't think he had any business flying. The question really is not why did he go on the trip, but why BA was flying. If they're legally flying, people will board the planes.

It's not as good as a lot of Tom Scott videos
I like a lot of his videos. Good, bite-size nuggets of info, mostly. Nowadays, Numberphile is reaching for 30 mins info, which is still good, but becomes TL;DW, which is a shame, because they're not the rambling, anecdotal-laden drivel, which plagues YouTube.

Yeah - this guy's turning into a bit of a d*ck
Another sanctimonious, self-serving monologue in the video before, too: youtu.be/L-x8DYTOv7w

I've got no idea who this guy is or why so many people here seem to be down on him, but I enjoyed that.

Watch his maths videos. They’re really good.

Maths videos sound fucking boring if I'm honest. Like maybe if it's 3am and I still can't sleep, I'll be choosing between the guy who does videos about the underground and maths videos, and maybe then I'll give it a go.

I’m disappointed but not surprised that my ringing endorsement is not enough to sway you.
You probably find chess boring too, which is a shame as his video on the knight’s tour is fascinating. Seriously.

I find him a bit smug somehow but worth enduring for the content of his vids
Like that cringey vsauce guy.

I can't watch vsauce. Intolerably smug.
I feel a fantastic urge to punch him in his stupid face.

He does seem an
odd person to be negative about.

Isn't it down to YouTube algorithms though?
I've heard complaints from people that short films don't get ranked as high as longer ones (with more adverts) so fewer people are working on quick animations or short explanations and instead making longer and longer products. This does explain a lot of the drivel that seems to be going into stuff now and would explain why this guy isn't doing really pithy little 3 minute vids any longer.
