Todd Togers is actually the evil twin brother of Rogers and all of this is an elaborate setup to ruin him. That’s my canon.
Someone needs to make a Todd Rogers vs Rodd Togers cut like the Roe Jogan ones.
Also, where I'm from a Todger is a part of the male anatomy. Not to mention, Rodd.
Does anyone remember the Captain Todger sketch from Mitchel and Webb?
Talk about a hilarious fail on his part. 😂
Todd howard
As long as he stays away from our beloved splinter cell..
I enjoyed you calling him Togers for the duration. Very nice.
Man love your work, keep being awesome.
I thought it was funny and cool. I also enjoyed it
Madness
Never thought I'd see you here
Isn't Todger slang for a donger in British English as well? lmao
"I sued them. Not just the men... but the women and children too"
Nice job youve got a heart from the legend himself!
Nice reference my buddy
I heard he has also sued the unborn (this is a joke)
@@fedbar glad you explained, you were about to trigger a hundred people rn 🤣
@@fedbar Thanks for explaining that it was a joke, I was about to type a 420 paragraph essay about why you are a bad person for saying something online about someone else which was very rude and everyone would be mad. Nobody could had ever realized that that was a joke. It's so good to the point were I took it seriously and was about to sue you for a random comment you made online just because of a joke, but I changed my mind all thanks to your comment saying (this is a joke).
By the way, (This isn't a joke). I seriously believed that you should be arrested for doing something as bad as this.
If Todd Rodgers is “Todgers” does that mean Billy Mitchell is “Bitchell”? 🤔
Nice! 😂
trust me he IS a Bitchell
That was clever
Yes. Yes it does 🤣
Yes.. Yes. YES
Todd Togers is actually not a misspelling of his name. It's just the way the name comes out when you start typing in second gear.
33 likes ain't enough
I feel like it’s an actual technique that suing a person has. If they get backed into a corner they point to the name and say it wasn’t me. Or if it is dumb just go “nah wasn’t me”
We call it the "human element".
@@ClebyHerris I mean it's going to be hard to claim if he shows up to the courthouse and tries to go through with it
@@jackjohnson9055 no like if it’s a bad argument he can just say it isn’t his
The fact that Billy Mitchell is responsible for Apollo Legend going into debt - which was a factor in his suicide - is INFURIATING.
The fact US justice system actually forced a random internet teen (my mistake, apparently apollo wasn't that young) to pay him money is such a comedy
edit: technically he didn't lose it, but still had to pay lawyers and so on. Justice truly is built to protect the wealthier.
"Billy Mitchell is responsible for... his suicide"
Fixed that for you. I think, in my opinion, it was the main factor.
@Stellvia Hoenheim Shocked me too to hear about his death... was thinking the same about the uploads.
Don't think so . He had other issues too.
I didn't even know. Damn shame.😔 Mitchell is only worried about his ego being bruised. May he rest peacefully.
Hearing about Billy Mitchell holding back "giggles" from pushing a man to suicide makes "World Record for Biggest Piece of Shit" a more appropriate title then any of the records he's clearly cheated on.....
He's the longest record holder for that.
I just want to point out that these were ENTIRLY separate occasions. Him celebrating his death was a false alarm long before Apollo killed himself. Still horrible but nothing to do with suicide.
@@davidwarford3087 He still was happy about the false assumption of somebody having commited suicide.
As much as I want to agree, there's yet still bigger pieces of shit out there. Just like EA isn't actually the worst company in America, there are worse people than Billy Mitchell.
"King of C***s"
Billy Mitchell legitimately said that he would try not to smile or giggle at Apollo's suicide simply because he was exposed for cheating at a video game. Truly pathetic man.
Except Billy's comment was from BEFORE Apollo's actual death, but it's still a massive dipshit move.
@@ChiefMedicPururu Doesn't matter if it's before or after, even if you are under a false assumption it's still your genuine feelings. Believing someone has passed and expressing joy, and someone actually passing and expressing joy, are fundamentally the same thing.
@@fivefierce8754 Hence the "Still a massive dipshit move" in my comment.
@@ChiefMedicPururu Hence Five Fierce saying it doesn't matter about the "Except" part.
The fact that Billy's official statement/video (which btw everyone should save it cause theres a good chance he'll delete it) only talks about how no money was exchanged between the two and doesn't even mention him laughing about apollo's death is sickening
When he is counter-sued: "I didn't file a lawsuit, Todd Todgers did."
That idea reminds me of when Digital Homicide (a studio of two people) went after Jim Sterling, got shut down immediately, then kept repeating over and over “erm technically it wasn’t digital homicide in that lawsuit, it was only [insert whatever that dude’s name was]”
@@AliensAreNoobs James and Robert Romine
Hysterical to see someone has donated $1,000 in the name of 'Todd Togers'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@steeveedee4307 Holy shit what a genius

@@paulbailey5087 Poggers
Oh hey cranky yanky, nice to see you here.
When he said Togers at 6:35 I lost it and had to rewind. Missed 30 seconds from cracking up.
"He claims he has witnesses, but none of them ever come forward.
Because they are imaginary."
he has witnesses, they just go to a different school
he has witnesses before his pills
Nuh uh! They live in Canada! You don’t even know them!!
Tell you what, there is some serious emotional whiplash here moving from "Todd Togers misspelled his own name in legal documents" to "Billy Mitchell basically killed a man and then gloated about it."
Yeah. I know. Can't like a lot of people force the American system in any way to look in details into all Mitchell did? And force him to pay money to the families of those who's life he destroyed, some of these did die at least partly because of him and his actions, so he should pay money to the victim's family.
@@jojolafrite90 That's rather hilarious to be perfectly honest.
You must think law works the way you see it in movies and sitcoms.
Welcome to the real world.
@@incumbentvinyl9291 wrongful death lawsuits are a real thing you clown, it's not unheard of.
Billy didn't influence Apollo killing himself, but still, laughing after hearing someone killed themselves is fricked up.
@@KnakuanaRka He did, He was a cause of it. Sure he wasn’t the MAIN reasons but he still likely contributed as who would of guessed that harassing and threatening to financially and socially wreck someone with a bunch of people in their comments shitting on them would of further wrecked the mental health of someone suicidal and in poor mental health!?
"Judge declares Billy Mitchel is "not a giant floating head" contrary to popular belief."

But I'm glad it amuses someone.
"He wrote his name wrong on the lawsuit" proceeds to call him the wrong name the whole video like an absolute legend!
He will proceed to blame the "human element".
Loved the fact he kept that going 😂
Kept me laughing throughout..
Legally with that wrong name its a failed law suit. As the others can legally say we called Mr Rodgers scores fake. Not Mr todgers.
In law every single word is critical rite down to its spelling. Even correct punctuation is necessary or you can loose everything.
@@oldgolfpunk You spelled "lose" wrong
I feel bad for David. He tried his best to defend Mitchell and prove him innocent and in the end Mitchell betrays him because he couldn't do it. It's impossible that it wasn't on an emulator and David found that out during his own research.
Regular Show really knew what they were doing when they parodied Billy Mitchell in one of their episodes!
Never watched it, looks hilarious to see that jackass memed to shit
@@danielarputharaj9918 to sum it up, the blue jay (mordecai) and raccoon (rigby) beat the ever loving shit out of everyone on that game, shooting for the universe record until Garrett bobby Ferguson (the big head parodying mitchell) confronts them and tells them he has that record, convincing the crowd enough to ignore mordecai and rigby and respect gbf, so the two of them challenge him in a round that ends with him pleading in sympathy for them to forefeit since the score is all gbf has, they do, but he lied and destroys their pride and respect in turn until the bros realize they have an extra life, trying to both beat the record and keep away gbf, thus kicking him in the nuts, winning all the respect, and gbf exploding into goo lol.
Just watch 'high score', my explanation doesnt do this justice
@@slygamer136 sounds amazing
Damn I forgot about that episode
The thing is if Mitchell had kept his mouth shut, most viewers wouldn't have known that and just thought of it as a funny design. I would guess that 70% of Regular Show viewers had never even heard of Billy Mitchell when they watched it.
I don't have the nicest things to say about Apollo, but saying "I will try my hardest not to smile or giggle," because the guy that had habitually mocked you whom you indebted with a bogus lawsuit *committed suicide* is genuinely sociopathic. What a piece of trash.
I thought Mitchell was a con artist and a loser... Now I think he's an absolute piece of shit and I wish him bad things because he deserves them.
Finally a reasonable take
What did Apollo do?
@@ZSpieg blamed ezscape and darkviperAU for his decision after being adamant about denying help prior to his departure.
It's pretty shitty to put that evil on innocent people that you wrongly attacked...
What I'm wondering is why did Apollo even settle with Billy Mitchell? I remember he posted the video about Billy's lawsuit, then set up a Gofundme, and he was able to raise enough money to counter-sue Billy pretty quickly. And he probably would have won the lawsuit-Billy had no case and Apollo had plenty of allies. Very sad. Hopefully Karl Jobst's lawsuit will teach Billy a lesson.
Imagine playing a part in bullying someone to their death and then celebrating. There’s being a bad dude and then there’s Billy Mitchell.
Holy shit. I literally just found out that Apollo’s dead.
Billy even caused him to commit suicide
Yeah I was about to comment that he literally sued a dead guy.
I did too how are these lawsuits going thrue?🥺😖
@@jongyon7192p believe it or not, this is actually a crime and can be charged with manslaughter for this
As an attorney, I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this video. And misspelling your client's name in the complaint might be the most embarrassing thing a lawyer can do. I am genuinely gobsmacked at this lawsuit. Genuinely sanctionable.
@@JuliusCaesar888 Yeah, I don’t know any 14 year old attorneys. Even assuming they haven’t updated their channel description since it’s creation 13 years ago, 27 years old is astonishingly young for an attorney, almost unbelievably so.
@@fatfr0g570 Is it though? One would be 25 by the time they graduated law school and by 26 they'd most likely be in practice.
@@fatfr0g570 27 is a very normal starting age for one.
Todd Togers, bro
@@fatfr0g570 Hah it is quite normal to be a practicing attorney in one's mid-to-late 20s. Most folks graduate law school around 25-26.
Has no one filed an anti-SLAPP suit against Mitchell yet? He's exactly what they were meant for.
To my knowledge Billy would need to mis-place one of his accusations into the wrong state court system for an anti slapp suit to actually apply to him, as antislapp litigation is not at the federal level. However, I am not a legal expert, I've merely listened to a few who have made similar claims as well as survivors of likely slapp suits.
Yes I was wondering the same thing myself, if the anti-slapp legislation covers federal court or just State Court? I would think that it is the federal court system which was being abused with these frivolous cases, but I could be wrong because I haven't checked into the actual law itself just see what it says. That's always the best way to check validity of a claim, to look at the actual law or at least put a link up here for people to click to see the anti-slapp law?
You know Billy Mitchell was wrote to by Ronald freakin' Reagan, and named game player of the century by the makers of this. All these investigations and you are finding more to 'speculate' about, but nothing to certainly surmise any conclusion towards, leaving the speculation in the hands of emotional viewers. I may not like him, but he has skill. And guess what too, we have the right to the legal system, you have the right to a lawyer, and you don't need to spend money on it to pollute the legal system that people so deride.
Maybe I think it's time this generation's viewers actually grow up for a change. Get over it, or better yet learn to get your head out of the scourge that is cancel culture. It's only convenient to accuse but not to defend in this day and age.
@@ex3111x you're not going to convince anyone that you aren't a fraud, Billy.
@@Shyguyexplores Only in state courts. And only the states that have it, obviously.
Imagine being a judge for major lawsuits, like making serious decisions in important injury and malpractice cases, and once a year or so you're like "dammit the guy who keeps suing people over his high score is back."
"i am a judge, and my hobby is judging lawsuits"
"that sounds a bit monotonous"
"oh no, for work i judge serious cases, but my hobby cases are dimwits suing over their gaming scores not being taken seriously"
I know. Its sounds so petty.
Not sure if judges get to pick the cases they hear, but most of the things I read suggest "no, but there are exceptions"
If you've ever watched something like Judge Judy it's probably not so strange. People go to court over stuff like "wind makes trashcan lids fall off" and "I want the olive oil in divorce". I realize it won't be a small claims court this time, but the judges will have seen it elsewhere.
And on top of all that, your score still gets demolished by some random asian guy who plays in his free time.
Holy shit, I didn't know Apollo died. That's fucking horrible.
@@DonutPyro when you feel like you're trapped and have no other choice, you tend to do that.... but if it hadn't been for Billy's threats, I HIGHLY doubt he ever would've gone through with it.
@@DonutPyro

IKR? I heard about it a while ago, still feels kinda unreal, he was the first person I found talking about speedrunning ages ago and he's sorely missed.
@@DonutPyro Hey man. When you go, I hope you go happy and not drowning in yourself pity.
I'm sure Togers didn't lie about his scores; he just "misspelled" them. 😂
And has a bad memory so he just reads the "misspelled" scores.
5:51 is the same as 5:57 in a blurry enough photograph
"If you want to become legitimately good at something, unlike the subjects of this video..."

The subjects in this video are legitimately good at filing frivolous lawsuits.

The fact that Mitchell was happy is what gets me. I knew about Apollo Legend and basically everything leading up to his death, but THAT is news to me and makes me beyond furious.
Duuude.....Holy crap. I thought Apollo just vanished.
Billy Mitchell is such a sad man. Getting a high score 30 years ago is literally his life achievement and he can't move on.
Those scores are his entire brand, how he markets his barbecue sauce, why people even know that exists etc. Not defending Mitchell because he’s absolutely a fraud, but I can definitely see why he’d so ardently fight to make his fake scores legitimate.
Also, apparently fighting for those scores has been nothing but bad press and good money for him. That's a trade many would go for.
hes 100%a gigantic fucking loser, he has no life clearly
At least Mitchell have a score on a well knowed game.
What does Todd Rogers have?
A perfect time on a game that no one cared back than and even less now
Wrong. He achieved no high score. He achieved nothing.
I just realized, Billy's new lawsuit against Karl is being prepared a week before his birthday. I know it's most likely not going to happen beforehand, but I would want nothing more than to see Billy's birthday present being shutdown after decades of lying.
Klassy Karl is such a professional.
Despite all of the "human element's" temper tantrums, Karl still shows proper respect and addresses him by his preferred legal name of "Mr. Togers" throughout the entire video.
Karl's truly a humble legend.
The fact that after talking about Todd Rodgers lawsuit where he misspelled his name he called him Todgers for the rest of the video, absolute legend lol
it also protects him, since if Rodgers decides to sue him for reporting this, he can't be sued since he is talking about "Todd Todgers" who is on the form

“Todgers”
If he just went by the word above as one word he has speed runned his own name at least.

@@AncapOtaku For real. It's really strikes me that he was such a head in the speedrunning community for those videos, but when he did what he did 4 months ago, like, I didn't hear a word or anything for the most part.
Screw Billy Mitchel for real though.
Did Apollo the speed runner kill himself?! Because of the law suits??
@@Astronic While it wasn't the only reason, Billy's lawsuit forced Apollo to take a massive debt in the bank, leading to money problems. This, combined with his already deteriorating health and smaller youtube dramas, is what finally broke him, which made Apollo commit suicide.
If it's a good judge he will rule: "Togers Integrity shall be reinstated, Rogers however is declared a fraud. BAM!"
Drove Apollo Legend to suicide and expressed joy at the thought? Well then Billy, it is now too late to turn back. I think you have a lot more to worry about than just counter-suits.
when did he say that?
Nah, Apollo killed Apollo. During the whole Billy lawsuit he had massive fan and those who were disgusted with Billy's actions full support. He offd himself due to illness and not being able to do what he said he was going to do when suddenly almost 100 grand appeared in his GoFundMe account over night. He cracked under the pressure and couldn't juggle his health, the lawsuit and his other personal issues. This is why he caved into the lawsuit and removed the videos, refunded (or tried to) the GoFundMe money then got backlash about that on top of Apollo's own shitty online history (he wasn't exactly a good guy himself).
Billy or his son now goes around on social media or silly boards like 4chan boasting and bragging how it was a win for them, Apollo had to settle due to defamation and lying on Billy and how Carl is next after a supposed video he had to edit to remove a clip from Apollo's now deleted video. To sum it up all nicely Carl isn't Apollo. And im more than sure he'd have a lawyer paid for by his viewers easily. You know it's all bullshit, the man spends more effort giving out lawsuits then he does proving he can do the score again.
@@Mudlink Way to twist the facts and bullshit, so lets take those down one by one
1) Billy continued to pressure and harass all leading up to Apollo's death. Not only that but his groupies did as well. Comment sections, social media you name it. It was uncalled for. Not to mention how he was a total snake with the whole visit to discuss the board swap video. When billy in that video tucked tail and ran in his office leaving Robert Childs to take the heat. Silly. They did it also to Tipster when he first covered the topic before he revealed himself to be a clown.
2) No one cares about billys Twitch channel. He got what? A mil? That wasn't the score that he claimed to have. And too little too fucking late.
3)Karl isn't the only source of information on this mess. And there are quite a few people who has a grudge or dislike of him.
4) All the time during the TG investigation he never worked with them to present any evidence to defend himself. But stood in a corner in FL.
So the Tldr? Billy's full of so much shit his eyes are brown. He's what? 60 now? Let this shit go and retire somewhere. Also you're dishonest yourself. I strongly hope you aren't hopping around on accounts going from video to video. Apollo wasn't the first to notice billys shit nor was Karl.
The suicide video cites chronic pain and his friends betraying him as the main reason. Billy laughed about it, but did not cause it.
@@rangergxi He was a part of the reason and yes he did use quite a few dirty tactics to put on that pressure.
"I will do my best not to smile or giggle." Billy writes this in response to Apollo's suicide? Pure. Evil.
This man is not allowed to live anymore
The fact that you keep calling him Togers is killing me
I mean, he called himself that so i dont blame him

Now all we need is Bimmy Mitchell (Y'know? Bimmy And Jimmy? Double Dragon 3? lol)
If only he’d use the drive he has, to grind games instead of lawsuits, he might actually hold a world record 🤷🏽
It’s so weird that Rodgers claimed to have this amazing score but yet never would prove it on camera when asked and the few times he did he could barely get a score closed to it
Billy be like: "Yo Togers, come sue people with me so I don't look like a dumbass."
"Got you fam..... so what are you wearin-"
*billy hangs up*
This comment is underrated.
Now they both look like dumbasses 😎
I guess the defendants ARE his little togchamps
I'm honestly wondering if Mitchell came talked him into doing and offered to pay his legal fees.
Billy Mitchell is an IRL supervillain: petty, monomaniacal, and heartless. Todd Togers is more like a supervillain's bumbling flunky, the kind of mook that ruins his master's plans through his own incompetence, who would be sad if he wasn't detestably amusing.
Mimsy!!!
He is kind of like Otis from the Superman movie.
In this case, Todd actually helped Billy by being the 'referee' that verified his 1.067 million DK score. The one we have no full video of, and only show-off demos from Billy (that reveal MAME screen drawing routines anyway).
That’s...a good summary after having watched up videos on both of them. I still can’t wrap my head around why holding a fake record is such a big deal to these guys, but maybe it’s really not about that at all. It’s just a tool to push others around with.
@@Hibernial They made a lot of money, but more so was the prestige of being 'worshipped' as gods in their minds.

Wait
Billy Mitchell actually made a response on RUclips for the first time. This is a historical event!
Yeah, because for ONCE Billy Mitchell has a legitimate gripe in the eyes of the law. Unfortunately, this is a lawsuit he could actually, possibly, win. Jobst has no proof that Mitchell had anything to do with Apollo's suicide. While I believe most of us can probably agree that his frivolous lawsuit against Apollo likely made his mental stress even worse, it's going to be very, very, VERY difficult to prove that in a court of law. Especially when Apollo specifically blamed others for the reasoning behind his suicide.
I can't stand Mitchell either but this could end up being a significant blunder on Jobst's part. Mitchell now lives to sue people so the second he has even a sliver of hope for successfully suing someone, he's going to do it!
@@JSchaffer214 i think there's a good chance Billy is telling the truth about there being no monetary agreement between him and Apolo Legend and that's the only thing he will want to disprove. Everything else about him has been true, except for that one particular detail.
@@JSchaffer214 I'm sure Karl knows this he didn't accuse Billy of being the cause he just mentioned the outcome of their lawsuit and Billy's respone to Apollo's death
I don't think expressing your suspicion someone's actions contributed to someone else committing suicide is illegal.
Even if they turn out false.
@@HoneyBadgerVideos someone could prove that promoting such a belief is defamation or slander.
I think Togers submitted a score of 5.57 originally. But someone at Activision messed up and printed his score as 5.51. After that Todd just ran with it thinking, "If Activision put that number and they're the authority I'll just go with it." But the lie grew so much he couldn't tell the truth.

Brilliant.
"I'm now of the opinion he is legitimately evil" careful there Karl, with this guy's track record he's gonna try to sue you *again* for defamation
The statement should be fine. It is, one must assume, a true statement regarding Karl's opinion.
Ultimately evil is subjective, so there's no way in hell that sad twat could sue him for defamation.
But even if he could Bitchell's remarks on what he thought was Apollo's suicide would fall under most people's definition of evil.
Opinion is not defamatory (with a nod to the pedants who will say "except when it is", but none of those conditions would apply here.)
But to be fair, it's still a legitimate concern because it costs money to have lawyers argue in court and get a judge to throw the case out.
Notch said he’s backing him up
Philosophically speaking, I think the fact/opinion distinction is actually somewhat bogus (see John Corvino's article on this). But "opinion" still functions alright as a legal category.
Billy Mitchell killed Apollo legends. That’s so sad dude. Like I’m tearing up that’s like such a horrible thing...over video game scores this man robbed someone of all his money and his life...someone needs to put him in his place ASAP...
Also a cautionary tale for all of us. iirc, Apollo already had a mental illness before he went into a very stressful & controversial topic of "exposing cheater". Your health priority should always be one step above your work.
Had no idea about Apollo Legend. He was a big part of how I learned about Mitchell and other game record fraudsters. I read that he butted heads with some folks from the speedrun community as well. I hate that he took his life.
I know Apollo Legend wasn’t the best guy, but Billy expressing happiness over his death is just sickening. He and Togers need to be stopped.

@@wombatcat26 This is the correct take. Apollo deserved to live a full life and learn and change as all humans do. RIP.
@@thegrasswhistle5238 Basically Apollo became kinda reviled by other speedrunners for spending more time acting like peak cancer Keemstar and LeafyisHere (each of whom have generally mellowed way out) than actually running games, having a raging hate boner for Games Done Quick, had ongoing friendships with legitimate Neo Nazis, and repeated tried to get DarkViperAU cancelled for previously broadcasting and calling out his bullshit in videos. Also, the funny haha skits where he cosplayed Billy Mitchell while meeting the real guy in person included textbook examples of harassment and as well as attempts to illegally record him.
There's only one way to fix that. But no one has the willpower.

Wow, just got your ENTIRE SM64 speedrunning video as an ad on this video. Why?
Just think this is a funny reply.
@@blazingdude11 google advertising % speedrun - I hope you didn't skip it that cost a lot of money!
@@TheBluePhoenix008 it means “I saw this video before”
TAS but for the legal system haha.
I wanted to say I respect you so much for removing the portion about Apollo's passing. I know was hard and Billy's video he posted was dumb. Hell, he said they reached a settlement, flashed a folded paper. Makes me think of the "Arcade Board swap" for DK and DKJr. Billy may have driven Apollo to what happened, even if money wasn't spilled.
Holy shit I had no idea about Apollo Legend. It's one thing when somebody like Billy impotently flails about, but when something actually connects and does damage he's gone from pathetic to actually evil. Billy's gone from somebody who we're trying not to remember to somebody that we'll never forget, nor what they've done.
Huge shoutout and a RIP to Apollo Legend for being the original person bringing this to RUclips light.
Yeah... He got cornered by some lawsuits and had to make an agrement with mitchel.
What happened to him? Was one of my fav youtubers
@@THEDisneyNerd committed suicide
He was a bitch but Billy should NOT have won
@@eugenehatin.420 I just got towards the end of the video, I am so saddened to hear this 😔
This just shows how ridiculous the current legal system is in the US. The fact that people can sue one another knowing full well that their claims are absurd just to strong arm the other person into submitting is insane.
Yep, the fact that someone who wins a lawsuit (either as plaintiff or defendant) still has to pay their own legal fees means people are forced to settle even when they're 100% in the right. Basically extortion and many states lack the anti-SLAPP laws needed to prevent this.
It’s really telling how easy the system is to break when you have the money to backup bullshit
My friend had this happen when he did work for a very well known DJ who used my friend's work without paying. The DJ dared him to sue because of course this DJ had a team of lawyers ready to strong arm my friend into a settlement where he'd have ended up paying money to do the work that was stolen from him. It's despicable
I audibly said "WHAT?!" when you said Apollo Legend was dead.
I wondered why he hadn't made a video in a while..
Your channel, his channel, and Summoning Salt, are the trinity of popular speedrunning coverage on RUclips.
He will be missed.
The fact that someone could not only feel no remorse, but quite possibly even feel personal satisfaction, that their malicious lies led to someone taking their own life, over points in a video game no less. How this man can even stand to look at himself in the mirror everyday is beyond me.
Todd Rogers and Billy Mitchell look like a Wario and Waluigi Netflix adaptation.
Bwahahahahahahahaha 👏 👏
When Mitchell loses everything “I will not shed a tear. I will try my very hardest not to smile or giggle.”
Couldn’t agree more.
I will smile and giggle a lot.
chances of you failing not smiling is preety high...
Its all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits
It will take more effort than he put into the fraud.
Anyone: [states basic easily verifiable facts]
Billy Mitchell: THAT'S ILLEGAL
Upside: those two guys provide us with so much entertainment.
Downside: the nice ppl he sues are very stressed and they dont deserve that.
I've been a fan of Apollo Legend for a long time. I wondered why he hasn't uploaded in a while and when you said he took his own life my heart stopped.. I had no idea. That's seriously heartbreaking. I already hated Billy Mitchell, but now I can't even express how much I hate him.. what a terrible fucking person. I'm so sad now. RIP Apollo Legend
Yep, I had to rewind and listen to it again to make sure it was AL he was talking about. Can't believe it! I wonder what Iillness he had. Very sad.
You should see the comments of his latest video. So many trolls and Billy Mitchell bootlickers endlessly bad-mouthing him
@@MrMars-sx3db Yes I've seen.. Some kid was even posting videos making fun of his death. So disgusting and just sad tbh
there is a good amount to unpack here.
i was similarly angered by karl's video. i have always and will continue to hate mitchell.
but the implication that billy was ultimately responsible for apollo's suicide is far fetched and so is the claim that he had to pay mitchell money for settlement (no proof of this yet; mitchell claims he has papers backing up the fact that no transaction had occured, but mitchell is a compulsive liar and i take his words with a grain of salt). unfortunately, mitchell has latched on to the this very sentiment and wants to sue jobst for these 'defamatory' claims which is derailing the entire course of action. mitchell must have most likely seen that a better case would be if he could prove that there was no transaction between him and apollo; hence he wants to proceed with this 'lawsuit' rather than the donkey kong one which he is 100% destined to lose. jobst should have been a little more careful while throwing those words as there was no real proof pointing towards any cash settlement.
The suicide video cites chronic pain and his friends betraying him as the main reason. Billy laughed about it, but did not cause it.
'"-and I'm now of the opinion he is legitimately evil" - Karl Jobst' should be added to the cover of any future King of Kong physical copies haha.
some day he is going to sue himself for doubting himself in his world record
This is stupid.
I understand some people working hard for their records because they care about the game, and then cheating to get ahead, but Togers literally just cheated, and then spent like 30 years lying about it. This lawsuit is so insanely desperate. I can't imagine what's driving him to act like this.
Billy Mitchell be like:
"I am the gaming equivalent of cancer"
@Flameraker48 yes, he isnt, but his lawsuit definitely is
Be careful he might sue you lul
The difference between cancer and Mitchell is I'd rather be with earlier than the latter
Not funny. My parents were killed by Billy Mitchell
@@hardworkingmf8445
What's he gonna sue us for?
Free speech? LMAO
Imagine being a lawyer, you handled serious cases like domestic violence, employee maltreatment, and so on
then you see a guy suing other people because his high score in a video game got removed from the leaderboards
The lawyers still get paid regardless. They probably think it will be a good change of pace.
There are different types of lawyers...not every lawyer is a criminal defense/trial lawyer. There are lawyers who specialize in pretty much every area of Law that you could imagine...including for situations like this.
I myself am very highly versed in "Bird Law"...so, if any of you need solid representation...
Lawyers are scum
I think it's more sad that they don't care as long as there is money flowing, or that it's even allowed in the same arena as murder trials simply because it will keep a judge and their slimy cronies on vacation twice a year. These lawsuits, whether they win or not, are damaging innocent peoples lives financially, and potentially even ruining them, all for these asswipes ego trips, and lawyers are the POS middlemen that make that happen! They just don't care. Not even about the law...that's why they bend it for a living. Billy would make a great lawyer...unfortunately.
Lawyers are scum, special place in hell for them. They dont care if Billy Mitchell was suing a dolphin as long as the check clears
Damn. I was wondering where did "Apollo Legend" go, but this is... shocking. What the actual hell.
Ugh… this is just sad. Two grown men attempting to become relevant again through accomplishments and non-accomplishments from 40 years ago.
Now I'm pissed. I didn't know Apollo died as a result of Mitchell's lawsuit. I remember watching his videos about Mitchell's actions and am now very sad that Apollo is dead.
It wasn't the only reason seemingly but I'm sure it played a big part. Being out of pocket is difficult enough, and even worse when you have health problems.
You will never be a real woman
I would say dont look more into his death then. He fucking hated trans people, and used the trans population of the speed running community as a literal call to action to boycott AGDQ.
@@acemargera3203 Okay incel.
@@fabulous_finn7810 That's good to know. Either way, I'm not really concerned about if he hated trans people as being in a situation where health is failing and being in debt sucks. I know a very similar situation which I am lucky to be out of (still working on some debt which may not be an issue soon).
It still sucks that he died for such as awful reason and I don't want the to happen to anyone else either. No matter if they would have hated someone like me or not.
The fact that this guy ruined apollos life so much, that he took his own life....
pure evil
i hope someone pushes back and he will face justice
Just remember EZScape, And DarkViperAU also had a hand in it as well. They shouldn't be able to escape.
I legit reciled when I herd that. Fuck Mitchell.
Wait what apollo went away TF
@@NekoNekonoTabiTabi the stress from it caused him to take his own life
@@synmer7104 criticizing people is fine and should be allowed. It sadly was a part of pushing him over the edge but I think neither expected that outcome.
It's 4:30 am, I have to work in 3.5h and I'm going down the rabbit hole with your videos about guys I never heard of before but it's so interesting!
Hi Karl. I was more a retro gamer than a current one (I can name all the “current” games I play on both hands!). I was born in 1969, so you can figure out that I was around during the beginning and peak of classic arcade games. I wasn’t great at them, but always enjoyed playing them. Somehow, while looking for RUclips related videos on these older games, I found myself here, watching your videos and the documentaries you’ve mentioned. I really enjoy the videos you’ve put together and I’ve learned a lot! This particular topic is so vast and crazy and that guy B is a real piece of work! The suicide of that young man is just too much. Anyone who would wallow in pleasure at that is a sick MaFa. Looking forward to hearing much more on this! Peace.
"Florida man misspells his own name in a lawsuit over a high score in a game"
I reckon when it goes wrong for him he will try to say it's someone else.
On other news: scientist discover that water is, indeed, wet!
@@Xegethra
His lawyers forgot to start in second gear, obviously.
I swear to god man everyday has been looking more and more like an Onion video since covid hit
The worst part of this entire thing is how Billy wears his tie outside his vest.
I thought i was the only one with bad enough ocd to notice that 🤣
lol jokes aside, the worst part is billy drove someone to suicide and is now laughing at their death
Idk, to me it's the bird hair. It's not an accident that his hair forms a hood around his face, he's been styling it like that for decades.
@@Beakerbite In my eyes it looks as if he wears a hoodie all the time, with a un-naturally heavily starched hood. 😅
It was all fun and games until I heard that a man took his own life. RIP Apollo, I didn't know the guy but was very sad to hear he comitted suicide.
I not only hope that Mitchell goes bankrupt, but that he faces the consequences for Apollo's death and goes to jail for it. Man o man, what a world we live in...
There, there. I'm extremely disturbed at that thing too. Yes, he deserves some kind of retribution, but don't think this "system" will provide any kind of actual justice in that context.
Billy Mitchell should burn in hell for all the suffering he's caused
Billy Mitchell looks like everyone first attempt at drawing Keanu Reaves
I thought "legitimately evil" was an exaggeration until I saw his response to Apollo taking his own life. I don't even care about the records, that's just despicable.
The first rule of Lawfare, as tragically demonstrated by Apollo Legend:
*The Process **_Is_** The Punishment.*
How so? Apollo didn't commit suicide because of the lawsuit. All things considered, why Apollo even settled in the first place to begin with? Billy had no case.
@@BrunodeSouzaLino Obviously I'm no Apollo fan, he was a reprehensible person. But you could definitely argue a major lawsuit can play a huge part in someone's crippling depression. Even if his physical disease was the much bigger factor.
You really had to make the words bold for dramatic effect huh?
@@chrisk2740 wait, what did Apollo do that made him horrible? I'm really out of the loop
@@astutepuggle3274 He was generally a liar who manipulated facts and misrepresented things in very malicious ways. The most notable thing was when he played hardcore defense for an actually Nazi who got exposed and banned from GDQ, rwhitegoose. Apollo's misrepresentation of facts and commitment to "we all say bad stuff sometimes, he says he's changed, guys" was disgusting to say the least.
I hope that one day I awake to find a YT video titled with the headline, 'Fake Donkey Kong King Punched in Face.'
💯 convinced that Rodgers sat each night before submitting those scores playing those games and saying something like “ damn it, I shoulda had X score if I wasn’t fucked over. I’ll just give myself the score since I shoulda had it “.
I can't believe Mitchell's response to Apollo taking his own life, he's by far the most evil person I've ever seen
It's unbelievable 😔 Rest in peace Apollo
He is an asshole
@@coolpool4191 at least my asshole has a function in this world, so it's not a complete waste of DNA.
@@TheWatchernator true, Billy Mitchell deserves punishment
David Race is such a genuinely nice guy and is so talented at Pac man. Every time I catch his stream on Twitch seems like he can basically get a perfect game on command. That's what true talent looks like, someone who can play a game on command and does it just because they enjoy it. Truly upsets me to see Mitchell go after such a good dude, hope everything works out in David's favor.
*Bitchell
I kinda want this lawsuit to go all the way to litigation, make Todgers believe he's got a case, then when they get to the courtroom, the judge just calls him Todgers the entire time, including when the judge throws the case out.
Billy Mitchel's job is googling his name, finding people talking about him and suing. I expect he will get to me and this statement around 2028.
Its sad what happened to Apollo Legend, we are all glad Karl is now “fighting the fight” for Apollo now. Karl will never give in to Billy.
RIP Apollo Legend.
I only just found out about that today, it's just so damn despicable that he could do that to someone and get away with it, I wonder if theres some way the community could band together and sue him over the loss of Apollo, get some retribution, but there probably is no legal standing on causing someone to go through all thay stress to the point of breakage. Either way, were going to miss you, Apollo, you were a damn good content creator and sounded like a hell of a guy
I watched Apollo’s videos on Mitchel before they were deleted, it was devastating to hear that he had taken his own life. I just hope Karl comes out victorious out of all this, he is admirable for holding Apollo’s legacy himself, I truly admire him deeply.
I had no idea he died until it was said in this video. Very saddening.
It's sad. Really sad. But Apollo is not really the 'good guy' in the story either
@@Jimmyvdpost No shit. He's a victim.
its so fucking sad what happend to Apollo, even if he did some stupid stuff he still was a genuine guy who cared
RIP Apollo
Yeah.
Yeah from his purposefully misleading people about his white supremacist friend, and then sending his fans to harass a guy who called him out for it to his outright slandering organizers of GDQ he really was a genuine guy I miss his videos.
Can someone explain what happened to him I'm out of the loop
@@twistedgwazi5727 Sadly after dealing with a lot of physical and mental issues he took his life. It's a very sad story, but you can investigate more about it online.
Get ready for war, Karl. I just saw Billy's response video to this. Hang in there, man!
Don't get yourself in trouble bro.. keep up the great work. Just been watching a few of your goldeneye and other speedrun videos. Great job. I like you and summoning salt
The fact Karl just completely casually keeps calling him “Togers” is just hilarious to me.
I giggled every time he casually says togers
Thought it was a mistake the first time on Karl's part. Should have known better.
😂😂
Todd is just doing "getting lawsuit thrown out" any% speedrun.
It is a good attempt, I bet he will finally get a 5.51!
Some might say Billy Mitchell is also the "King of Con"
I wonder how Billy feels that the whole as the internet really just hates him?
He doesn't give a shit unless you try to prove that he's wrong, and THEN, he'll try to sue, like he has tried with Karl right now.
