I get the thumbnail sucks, give it a go anyway. They're doing every step of rebuilding an engine block.

And for those down voting, why? I'm trying to help wake this sub up and without comments I don't know why folks here don't like the content.

I dig it. It was a fun video. Jer is absolutely freaking out about starting this new channel, and it's kinda hilarious.

[–] BallShapedMan 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah he was, I'm not sure if we're supposed to laugh at that but I did. I hope these kids kill it! They're so passionate about this craft.

[–] mipadaitu 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)

They're going to knock it out of the park, which is why we can laugh.

If they were going to fail, then it wouldn't be funny, but you know these guys are going to do amazing and fun work.

Honestly, with the way things have been going, I wouldn't be surprised if Big Time was more popular than Donut in a few years.

The production value is already there. Provided they can afford to have regular projects and other content, I don't see why they wouldn't blow up big. When I first saw the channel a couple of days ago they already had something like 750k subs with just the one video.

[–] BallShapedMan 2 points 4 months ago

That makes sense and I totally agree!

I can't wait to see what all they do with this channel!

[–] David_Eight 7 points 4 months ago

Yeah Jerry definitely looked a bit tense. The channel is just about at 1m subscribers already and the video is doing great, they'll definitely do just fine.

I'm so glad these guys broke off from the donut channel. I don't even watch donut anymore since it's all kind of lame.

If you're wondering why everything collects downvotes, in this comm, I'm pretty sure this sub gets brigaded by a few FuckCars people from the all page.

[–] BallShapedMan 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh that could be it. I hadn't thought of that. If that's the case I'd rather have an open discussion with them instead of just down voting everything, but it's a free world and if whoever is doing the down voting feels better for doing it I'm happy for them!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Eh, I have no proof beyond maybe two total comments from FuckCars people, and a consistent record of almost every post here receiving the same minimum 3 downvotes. It's just a theory, but it happens on the internet. Doesn't bother me.

That video felt like such a breath of fresh air. Loved it!

[–] BallShapedMan 2 points 4 months ago

I'm looking forward to their next one!
