SirStrongman is a YouTube creator with fewer than 10k subscribers, and I think he’s an unsung great who deserves more attention. His content hits great, is current and relevant, and includes plenty of decently deadpan humor.
The adventures at Cons are a highlight, as is his commentary on the YouTube community.
Some recent bangers:
This video, “Spirit Science: The Internets Insane Cult“, provides a critical deep dive into the online cult known as Spirit Science, founded by Jordan Duncus (also known as Jordan D). SirStrongman traces Jordan’s origins as a Newgrounds animator, details the bizarre, pseudoscientific mythology he constructed regarding extraterrestrials, Atlantis, and spiritual evolution, and ultimately exposes the darker reality behind his platform, including allegations of manipulation and predatory behavior toward his followers.
In “Crazy Cons Vol. 3,” host SirStrongman delves into a number of notoriously chaotic and dangerous fan conventions. The video goes beyond mere mismanagement to address instances of serious crime and vandalism. It highlights the internal drama and disorganization of Obsessed Fest 2023, recounts the chilling attempted attack on actor Jason David Frank at Phoenix Comicon 2017, and discusses the infamous 2015 Rainfurrest event, which was notorious for extensive hotel vandalism and illicit activities. The video concludes with a lighthearted personal vlog about the creator’s experience at Too Many Games 2026. Ultimately, it emphasizes that despite the potential for disastrous situations, the core appeal of these gatherings lies in the shared passion and enjoyment among attendees.
