Just watched the video—it has the same failings as most other debunking videos (e.g. Thunderf00t): in order to get views he must show that what he is debunking is very wrong, and so manufactures gotchas. It’s a little ironic that his video accusing Veratasium of lacking nuance is completely lacking nuance itself. Although admittedly, he’s not wrong that Veratasium is lacking nuance and is too breathless in his praise.
