How a Mad Scientist Became an Overnight Streaming Sensation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2024
- In a very popular corner of Twitch sits a channel belonging to a mad scientist named Michael Reeves.
The guy’s an overnight Twitch sensation-literally. Michael pulled in almost 25k viewers in his first stream and has averaged almost 15k viewers per stream since.
Viewers can’t get enough of his crazy inventions and down to earth personality. But to understand the fan's desire for this more consistent content, we’ve got to rewind back to a platform where his content is much less frequent: RUclips

Not gonna lie I never expected Micheal Reeves to ever be on a theScore video ever
Same
what did you think?
@@devinjones4946, it was pretty good, definitely like the videos on content creators and youtubers
fact
they are running out of esports content...
“I’m like Elon Musk if he was a 5 foot 3 filipino and has brain damage” - Michael Reeves
Best quote
yes
Repping the filipino boys
Most filipino's are pretty short
@@Gakler7274 i can vouch for that
Would have never expected you guys to cover Michael of all people but wow am I glad you did lmao 🤣
Right
YOU NEVER SEEN IT COMING
what is the reference
yessir... have watched michael since the 100k mark, but he got crazier every time
I didn't expect my boi either

I enjoy how scuffed his streams are. The peaking audio, 1sec delayed camera/audio, dono walls, drill-chan audio, him using a good camera on the drill and a subpar webcam for his facecam. It would be nice to see some of this improve yet I want him to stay as scuffed as possible.
scuff is not in the stream but in the soul
He didn’t become an overnight sensation. Everyone was waiting for him to be on twitch. Over the years he’s grinded our amazing RUclips videos and it was just his time to get on twitch.
^ This. Thank youuu.
holy shit, I thought that it had been maybe 1.5 - 2.5 years, didnt realise he had been going for >3 years.
I am proud to be first 110k, soon he's gonna be over 8 mill before we know it.
Overnight *streaming* sensation. It’s 100% True
The Roomba was particularly special, a true masterpiece
It's honestly his greatest masterpiece.
Its after all, his girlfriend.
I don't know why but in my opinion the surgery robot one is better.
And that kids is how I met your mother
@@MathewCR the surgery bot is impressively terrifying, the roomba is a masterpiece of homecare, frankly I can't say a definitive because the man's totally able to top himself hahah
“Why do people watch Michael Reeves on Twitch?”
Because people need something to keep them busy as they wait for 3-4 months for his next Video
Yeah its not just a month anymore
@@kage8678 I mean, he is going for tougher videos to make tbh. An elmo that detects your race and gets a quote from a file is much easier to make than a surgery robot. Let alone the Carriage Utility Mechanism
@@snakevenom4954 it doesn’t help he’s started clocking 10+ hours of Minecraft a day
More like 7-9 months
Soon it'll be once a year
I am the Elon Musk of bad ideas
-Michael Reeves
edit: thanks for the gold kind strangers!
Micheal is basically Einstein on a pound of crack.
@Pranavan Karthik Im amazed on how youre trying to say Filipino with Philippines
Pranavan Karthik Im just glad you tried bruv dont worry
Facial detection? NA I prefer racial detection
HMM more like jesus
The cool thing about the gaming streams is hes actually good a games
He is a gamer afterall.
He lives in a society
I had a stroke.
I’m pretty sure that’s all he really does anymore.
4:40
Most people: I needed to have other people and friends to talk to and make content with.
Michael Reeves: *I needed subjects*
...to torture
@@commentorbtw3490 for fun
@@aal834 ur being payed to say that...
For legal reasons that’s a joke Ahaha...
Michael likes tazers so much cuz he’s building immunity if the police ever try to detain him
It's probably up to the point that they'll just power him up. He's pretty much the master of electricity lol. Michael will just suck up the battery of the tazers himself.
He seems pretty white to me to warrant such an extreme meassure.
If anyone tries to swat Michael reeves, I'd feel bad for the Swat team.
MintyFresh “HEY BUDDY, HEY BUDDY GET BACK HERE BUDDY.” *taser crackles*
Some day someone is going to push Michael even farther over the edge and he’s going to build a mustard gas launcher with the ultimate gas mask and a taser proof jacket and he will be unstoppable
I love this dude's work so much, it's hilarious yet terrifying, imagine if him and styropyro worked together.
And that kids is how the Death Star was built.
A human name “but what happened to Earth?”
“It was met with a great disturbance in the force, where billions cried out in terror and were then immediately silenced.”
Styro is an alien for sure. Lol.
Oh my god, yes! Styro and Michael, a robot that shoots death laser (more like death beam) into your eyes
Finnally Micheal is getting the recognition he deserves
So Micheal has more recognition from others. I'm sorry I didnt know, I'm not really active on any other platforms besides RUclips.. calm down my bad
Mougle he’s always gotten recognition.
Mougle his channel is bigger than this one he’s been recognised by twitch from other streamers reacting to him.
@@Nekivz I'm not active on twitch so I guess I've just never seen it but thanks for telling me! Love that he is doing amazing.
I’ve been a long time fan since 1k and part of me is happy he’s successful but im also annoyed he didn’t stay ours
What do you mean? He has almost 5 million subs, he's gotten plenty of recognition lol
No you can't taze people for a career
Michael: haha tazer go bzzz bzzzz
@Thijs98 okay...
Police officers
@@ketchupbottle9619 uhh
He’s not just a mad scientist.
He’s mad adorable.
He’s the “Tom Holland” to Filthy Frank’s “Toby McGuire”. He filled the hole Joji left and then some.
i disagree with the joji thing so yea.
ToastSloth
I’m just saying he looks up to Joji a lot, so it’s easy to see his influence. A lot of people said the same thing about Tom Holland, that he would never top Toby McGuire, but who cares?
He reminds me more of that Something Witty Entertainment kid anyway. Y’know, the one who voices Kirito in Sword Art Online abridged. He can be cynical, but in an adorable way. People love that shit. I relate to that shit, somewhat.
Omg yes!! I mean, his humor is almost close to Filthy Frank (before Joji became Joji).
ngl even if I'm glad this guy is succeeding, I'm surprised he got a biographical on this channel despite being a streamer, and not necessarily an eSports professional.
David K if a short Filipino man comes into your room tonight and attempts to taze you for this, call 911
I also think it's cool he's succeeding and also thescore gets to cash in on the Michael reeves thumbnail views so it does make sense in a sense, sensibly
OffBeatBerry 27 shit I felt the breeze of the joke passing over your head from here, damn.
You'd be surprised how many people got successful in streaming even tho they're not eSports pro
Mystic ツ shit i feel the breeze of the joke passing over your head from here, damn
he was making another joke about michaels taser immunity from getting tased so much
I've known Michael from watching Allen Pan, William Osman and Peter Sripol. They're like the craziest of the science guys on youtube. Recently found out that he's part of this group OfflineTV. Wouldn't expect him to be highlighted on theScore esports though lol.
Props to guys like him.
1:36
“Michael Reeves...”
“Down-to-earth personality...”
H-He talks about killing turtles by shoving plastic straws up their nose....
Seems pretty grounded and sane to me.
more than down to earth, exactly what the description was
Don’t forget bringing them back to life with a trillion tasers
I just want someone to look at me the way Michael looks at tasers
Or Lily😂
@@justfate5912
screw lily
Tazers are eternal
same
@@fork638 I'd say he did the "screw lily" part as well
Nobody can love anything that much
I low key like this branching out to other streamers/content creators that aren't necessarily restricted to esports. This channel is becoming more like news for every topic in the whole gaming and streaming world which i love! Hope you all keep doing these little pieces on more members of OTV/more streamers in general :D
"Got bored working for the government so he made a video about a dumb robot and uploaded it to RUclips."
Could not have described Michael better than that sentence lol.
I still remember when Micheal dated a roomba.
He still is isn't he?
@@demonchilde6664 This might not age well.
@@demonchilde6664 don't jinx it
Michael just reminds me of 2010 2011 RUclips with more production level
I started watching michael when his videos had 30k views, now he has 30k viewers on his stream :0
30k live viewers. Insane.
I watched since the C++ tutorials
Can't believe his the boyfriend of Lilypichu. So random yet so fitting.
Michael Reeves and theScore Esports are two things I never thought would be together but I’m glad they are.
You can not imagine the surprise I’m feeling at seeing this. Being part of his original 4,000 subs on YT, it is absolutely crazy to see Michael this big
Michael when ever he meets somebody: Hello, nice to taze you
“Fans have to wait for about a month to get new content.”
Me: “IT’S BEEN SEVEN FUCKING MONTHS!!!
When Michael reeves got a spotlight from thescore faster than scarra, lilypichu and disguised toast
"Styropyro has join the chat"
That dude is legit an alien. Lol.
styro vs michael vs joel creates
@@sganicocchi5337 In an all out war with all their weapons? I'm gonna go with styro
Mad scientist is to light word for him.
He did have ~6 of the top ~50 streamers “shouting him out”
Damn, now that was an interesting story. But also, where's the video on Schalke's Miracle Run?
They gonna lose first in playoffs
Leon Grden win*
@@nishatelya7576 Win Worlds you mean, or at least break the 0-3 loss streak to the LPL
@@leongrden8112 I mean, in all honesty, I heavily doubt they would lose against FNC and SK considering the state they were in during the last weeks of the split, but it wouldn't surprise me to see them lose a Bo5 against Rogue or G2
UnknowinglyDerpy tru lol
He's more of a engineer than a scientist.
Both are not far from eachother tho.
Next Video should be: How a man (Mr Homeless) is playing games like no one else is playing them.
Finally, I love him so much and I wanted to see him on here
Gratz on all his success, definitely earned it from his hard work
"I just wanna be the best Jimmy Neutron I can fucking be" - Michael Reeves
wow never expected Micheal to make it to the score esports but Micheal can pull off some cool valorant clip's
Title should have been "How a Crack Head Became an Overnight Streaming Sensation", "Mad Scientist" is an understatement.
thescore finally cashing in on the Michael Reeves hype.
you forgot ft. Michael Reeves in the end, tho. XD
Never mentioned how this man is dating a roomba
Been watching this guy for years.. quality content thats for sure
You forgot to mention his wholesomeness towards his girlfriend
I just had the feeling this video would come soon seeing all the recent clips on the score's social media.
"He's become an expert" that's a bit of a stretch and even he would tell you that
7:07 is so fitting for a soundboard
5:11 Buff Michael
He's not a mad scientist, he's a crackhead who REALLY hates turtles. And if he becomes a supervillain (with Toast at his side) who would be the hero that stops them? Or is it just a bunch of no name npc superheroes that they constantly kill?
Mad scientist is a good description of Michael
I only know this guy because of William osman
Hope Michael gets major sponsors so he can have the capital to make even more insane inventions. Love his content both on RUclips and Twitch.
"Down to earth guy"
Sure.
Michael is the reason I got into the streaming community. He brought a RUclips community into OTV and streaming.
Alrighty let's do this * clears throat *:
*RRREEEEEEEEEE*
I love your videos 😂 no ads on them.
I don't know if you can call his existential dread a 'down to earth' personality but okay
and now thanks to streaming fans get to "consistently" see micheal reeves doing what he does best.
never seen again for 6 months anywhere
He was already a sensation by the time he started streaming
Love Michael, content that doesn’t go bad the more you look at it.
My favorite youtuber on my favorite esports youtube channel? Am I dreaming?
3:47 the Cowboy Bebop Intro is bae
A very unhinged tech youtuber went to twitch: here's what happened
This feels incredible for ppl watching him for years. Finally and deserved!
I still remember seeing comments about how he deserved to have more subs
Toast and Micheal together is god like
“He uploads once a month or so” More like once a decade.
Michael Reeves is the perfect example of "Crazy = Genius"
hes lowkey
insane though
That makes it better poggers
Its not low-key *HE IS INSANE*
Low-key?
That's an understatement
when that one kid you bullied is at your door right now
I am a simple man ,I see Micheal ,I click
Same
I like how even in the podcast, Poki is still just eating.
"Overnight"...Pshhhh. Michael has been working for YEARS to get where he is at.
"Everyones trying to be Tony Stark, I just want to be the best Jimmy Neutron I can be in this life"
- Michael Reeves
1:44 “down to earth personality”
More like down to die personality right boys hahaha haha ha
Send help.
I've been a huge fan of Michael since his beginnings. This man is passionate about life, science and does what he likes.
I hope more people would be like him haha
I’m still waiting for the vending machine that charges in pain
Everybody gangsta till you find Micheal Reeves in a tekken 7 tourny
That 2001 space odessy on the shelf is pure love
1:45 down to earth to Michael means literally down to earth, like six feet under down to earth
With nearly all of his projects I think "I could make that" followed immediately by the realization that I haven't made something original in my life... He's a pretty good programmer but his real strength is his unending cornucopia of interesting and funny ideas.
beginning to watch Michael reeves is like starting to do cocaine it's so addictive.
Best video till date, i am happy you guys took the time to explore this crackhead xDp
down to earth?........yeah
gravity is the only thing thats keeping him from travelling to space and destroying the sun
I watched your CS Videos in the last few days and now u make a video about my favorite RUclipsr. Thank you
I think he just did what he felt like doing, and everybody liked him.
Didnt expect this honestly
Seeing Michael on thescore makes me so proud and happy at the same time.
The great sentence from mykull when clutching:"Im a gamer."
Never expected a Michael Reeves content
Michael Reeves seem like the type of guy to use and give out *Controlled Shocks*
My man Michael is getting some spotlight. So proud man!
that roomba always makes me laugh no matter how many times I have watched that video
The true modern Peter Parker without the spider bite and Uncle Ben dying 😅
This fells so fucking good because this was the only the i watched in quarantie
Michael Reeves on a theScore esports video was something I did not expect.
theScore video featuring the mad filipino goblin is something i didnt know i needed
This was unexpected but well deserved
Ah my favorite esports player, Michael Reeves.
Every scientists : we solve problems
Michael Reeves : i create problems for scientists to solve
