I personally made huge leaps in empathy from watching boogie2988's videos about his struggles with weight. It's important to note, however, that YouTube is first and foremost a kids network(kids video ads convert the best), and then secondarily a music network(music videos provide most of the audience growth). All the rest of the stuff comes way after those two in their priority list, so you have to wade through all the screamy reaction channels and music channels to scrape something wholesome for adults at the bottom of the barrel.
