The suicide video thing had nothing to do with fame. It was a friend and I don’t see why this would have been prevented by not being famous.

- maxlamb 3y agoHe never said that guy was a friend or even ever met him, but he was just someone “who commented a lot” on his blog. So just some random blog reader who clearly had mental health issues and who became obsessed with Tim.
- hammyhavoc 3y agoYou don't even need to be famous to be on the receiving end of this kind of thing. You can just be unfortunate. The more output you have in the public domain, famous or not, the more there is to latch onto.
- cobertos 3y agoRight. He used that as an opener/attention getter but he never explains it's relation to the rest of the article. The commenter who suicided knew Tim before fame + had longer extended contact. The opposite of the article of unsolicited spontaneous issues with people. Didn't like that he led with this story, the article felt less unique than that story
