Have your posts ever featured in a YouTube video?

There are several youtubers i follow that use reddit subs for content. Have your posts or comments ever made it into YouTube videos?! I posted on a parenting forum once that made it to the daily fail. Just interested to know if you have ever recognised yourself in someone else's content!

I once tweeted about what I thought was a lame joke from the Doom Eternal trailer and that made it into some professionally angry gaming YouTuber's video complaining about woke snowflakes and then also another video about fake controversies from someone defending my tweet. That was pretty surreal

It wasn't a comment as such but I once made a meme and shared it on a sub that I always visit and the meme later appeared on other subs, along with Facebook and Instagram accounts related to the subject matter of the meme.

Not on YouTube, but a friend on X posted a link to an article by a noted review website. It was about the intro to the video game The Last Of Us and the entire article was praising thoughts I'd put into a video concerning the absence of Sarah's mother. It was really nice piece and very unexpected as my own YouTube channel is tiny, so I don't even know how they found that content.

I got a question in an interview with Ian Wright for GQ. That was fun. Wrighty is amazing.

What was your question?

Nothing too exciting, just about favourite football kits.

Yes. A question I asked on a Reddit AMA last week got used in this four minute video: https://youtu.be/ODUbrIuxPtc

A load of people contacted me about a dashcam video I posted that was released by the police if that counts.

I dont know if anything else has ever featured. Haven't even thought to check tbh.

Multiple times in fact. Mostly to do with lost media.

My reddit comment was featured in SunnyV2's video about a TF2 player who faked his death

A post I made on the Lost Media Wiki about jumpscare ads for the 2018 film The Nun

Another lost media post I commented on about a creepy lost anti-piracy method

And one about a lost YTP from the late 2000s about Luigi killing Yoshi

I relentlessly called him out on it, and Brian eventually had no choice but to respond to my comments, and some other YouTubers also featured my comments in their own videos on the subject

Not YouTube, as far as I know, but I have definitely been quoted on at least one Buzzfeed article.

5minute_daft@reddit (OP)

Really?! For what?

sleepyprojectionist@reddit

These are the two I could find.

One is a listicle of SFW yet sexy things.

Two is about mistaken childhood notions of what is considered fancy.

Neither take is particularly interesting in my opinion, but that’s Buzzfeed for you.
