Welcome back to the
second channel, everybody,

we've got a crazy video today.

I'm gonna crack open a nice
sparkling water

(crack, pop, fizz)

AH!

FUCK!

My keyboard, that's very cool.

I didn't even get the cap off,
by the way,

it's still on and it's just sprayed out
like that.

That's very cool.

Okay.

Hope I didn't just totally
destroy my keyboard.

Let me go get a towel real quick.

(cartoon running sound effect)

And I'll just toss this over there.

(wet slapping noise)

Damn.

And I'll open the rest of this lid.

(electronic rave music)

Alright.

Alright, today we're gonna
be talking about

these weird ass articles

that these companies
write about Youtubers.

I did a video on my main channel
like, a long time ago

about these articles, but

since then I feel like they've gotten
even worse.

Companies like this, whatever wiki
website this is,

will try to like, write an article

with anything that you might
search about someone

so, "Danny Gonzalez Wife, Age,
Net Worth, Married."

It's got "wife" and "married"
in the same thing, like,

"Sure, we know he has a wife,
but are they married?"

They'll try to like, compile all
of these things into an article,

that way if you google, like,
"Danny Gonzalez age"

this comes up.

But they'll also try to like fill it
with information that, I-- they--

they don't know.

Cause they'll just make shit up.

And what I think has happened
over the years

is that one article will kind of, like,
overexaggerate how much they know,

and then another article will take info
from THAT article

and then they'll fudge a little bit more,

and it's just this like snowballing effect
to now, like,

these articles have, just like,
shit that is nowhere near true.

Especially the second article
we're gonna be talking about.

I've got two articles here,

one of them someone tweeted at me,

and then some-- another one was
in the subreddit.

So thank you guys for sharing these.

But it is pretty bizarre.

Really, I'm getting on here
to set the record straight,

because there's a lot of false
information being spread about me.

And I guess I gotta correct
the record, alright?

So this one's on this
website called Wiki.

Let's take a look.

Danny Gonzalez was born in
Illinois, USA, on June 12th, 1994.

That beautiful city Illinois, USA1.

His zodiac sign is Gemini and he holds
American nationality.

Okay, so far we're doing pretty good.

Here's where things start
to go a little bit awry.

Danny was raised an only child--

(thud sound)
Not true.

in Illinois by his Mexican parents--

(thud sound)
Not true.

I do have a quarter Mexican in me,

but it's just on my dad's side, so

I would not call my parents
my Mexican parents.

Who were both in the
real estate business--

I don't know where the
fuck they got that from.

I don't think I've ever talked
about what my parents do for a living

in any of my videos.

So I don't know if they're
just making that up

or they, like, misinterpreted
something I said one time,

like my-- if I said like I have--

my parents own a house?

And they were like,

"Oh! So they're in the
real estate business."

I guess technically true.

They have one investment property.

It's where they live.

At the age of thirteen, he moved
with his family

to Atlanta, Georgia and
enrolled at a high school there.

(thud sound)
Not true.

This is something I've seen before
in other articles,

so I'm assuming they got it from those,

but they were wrong and so is this one.

People who write this article,
if you're watching this,

listen up, alright?

I'm gonna te--
I'm gonna set the record straight.

I did not move to Atlanta in high school.

I did live in Atlanta.

But it was for college.

I lived in Illinois until
I went to college.

You know what I think it is?

As much as it upsets me to say this,

maybe I said in a video years ago
that I live in Atlanta

and they were like,

"Okay, this guy looks thirteen,
and he lives in Atlanta.

So that's when he moved to Georgia."

But really I was in college
and I just looked thirteen.

That's like, the only guess I have,
is that they just kind of like,

mis-aged me,

and were like, "Yeah, you're thirteen.

And you go to high school in Atlanta."
(laughs)

Danny became interested
in social media networks

while attending high school,

as most of his friends were active on social networks
such as Vine, Facebook, and Instagram.

Vine didn't come out
until I was in college, actually.

These are things that
you could just Google.

What if I just google,

How old was Danny in June 2012?

Guess I should specify that.
Danny Gonzalez.

I don't--

Little vain of me to think
that that would come up.

His birthday was in June of 1994.

So he was 18 in June of 2012.
He had just graduated high school.

Not that freakin' hard to figure out.

He was physically active, as he played
soccer, football, and was also a member

of his high school's drama club.

This is so freakin'...

strange.

Maybe if you search "Danny Gonzalez"

like, a picture of somebody
playing soccer comes up?

I did not play soccer in high school.

I did not play football in high school.

Not seeing anybody playing soccer.

This guy looks pretty strong.

Maybe they saw this,

thought this was me,

and were like, "How did he get so strong?"

Oh wait! Lookit!

Ohhh shit.

Do you think they scrolled
down all the way to here,

saw this picture of a guy
that's clearly not me,

and thought to themselves,

"Ohhhh. He played soccer in
high school. Very cool."

Okay, so, I played soccer and football--

Honestly, my life sounds way cooler
in this article than it does in real life.

I was like the new kid in high school
in the big city of Atlanta,

I was the star of the
football and soccer team.

Danny matriculated in 2012--

Okay, so they DO know when I matriculated.

They know when I graduated.

I'm assuming that's
what "matriculated" means.

To be enrolled at a college or university.

So what they're saying is,

"Danny enrolled in 2012, and
then enrolled in Georgia Tech."

So they know when I started college, then.

So they know that Vine didn't exist

if they had just like, taken
one second to think about it.

Danny launched his career on the Internet
while attending high school

as his Vine account numbered
more than 2 million followers.

Dude, the words they use in this
article are kind of impressive though.

"Matriculated."

The next sentence says,

"He launched his eh--

Ep--

Eh-PONY-miss Youtube Channel.

Ee-pony-miss.

Eponymous?

It's got the word "pony" in there.

"He launched his pony-themed
Youtube channel on September 9th, 2014,

and has since gathered more
than 4.1 million subscribers.

Okay, they wrote this
article a little while ago.

What is epi-- "epinomous" mean?

It means,

"Give their name to something."

Okay, so it's like my
self-titled Youtube channel.

Danny's love life, is he married?

Okay, there's a bunch of
weird shit in here too, I remember.

Oh yeah.

Laura is a dancer and photographer,

whose Instagram account is
followed by over 5,000 people.

Again, they're making
shit up for Laura, too!

I don't know where they found, like,
I-- okay,

she has an Instagram?

So that makes her a photographer?

And maybe she--

No, she's never danced. On anything.

So I don't know where they got that.

I like how I said she's NEVER danced.

"She's NEVER danced.

Laura doesn't know how to dance, alright?

She's got two left feet.

Literally. She's got this weird condition
where both of her feet are left feet.

She's never danced.
