Veritasium. As soon as he put out a video with sponsored content where he lied with science I immediately knew he could no longer be trusted. I completely stopped watching his videos that day.
Which video?
found it. https://youtu.be/5zI9sG3pjVU?t=983
there's even people in the comments that don't realize the experiment was bad science and think that maybe these wipes are 'different'
more people actually saying they're going to switch to flushable wipes.
Thanks for the answers! I had a bad taste in my mouth after his dandruff video which felt very corporate but I gave him the benefit of the doubt assuming that the science was solid. I guess my gut instinct was right.
I still think a lot of his videos are good, it's just sad that the obviously sponsored ones are low quality. I'll check out the links and response video someone else posted and keep being skeptical.
