  The video seems to be based on the Wikipedia article almost point-for-point.

    This is quite common. The sort of channels specializing in 10-15 minute videos about incidents, accidents, etc mostly all seem to be professional wikipedia paraphrasers. There are some gems in the rough though. If this genre of video interests you, definitely check out the USCSB (U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board) channel.

      The Brick Immortar channel is one of those gems.

      It's unfortunate that you've mentioned this - now whenever I see a youtube doco along these lines I'm going to check and be put off by this fact :/. Youtube is definitely developing a subculture of channels that essentially copy existing work and put them in video form. I guess they are generating bespoke content - There's a fair bit of effort that goes into creating an engaging and cohesive video. But the fact that most of them do not properly acknowledge sources leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

        On the bright side, these sort of channels can still be good for topic discovery.

        > It's unfortunate that you've mentioned this - now whenever I see a youtube doco along these lines I'm going to check and be put off by this fact :/. Don't be, there's a lot of art in the presentation style. This particular channel puts a lot of effort into being very respectful and presenting a certain tone and speech register which I find rather charming. Of course not all channels do add this kind of value, but just ignore the ones that don't! :)
