Hey legends - I took a little break at the start of the year but I’m now back and feeling refreshed. This video has been one of my all-time favourites to make as it’s such a crazy story. Hope you enjoy! :) For those asking about my ‘RUclips business’ course (everything I know about making videos, growing a channel/business etc) I’m still working on it and within the next month it should finally be live. Sorry for such a long wait, but I want it to be incredible. If you wanna reserve a spot, just go here: magnatesmedia.com P.S. Normally I aim for each video to have its own aesthetic. But McAfee’s life is so wild that each chapter felt like it needed a slightly different visual style (as one minute he’s working in the middle of the jungle, then he’s on the run, then he’s trying to be president…) - so hopefully the different aesthetics help capture each of the unique chapters of John’s life. 😅

I was working for the federal government when we received notice that the Michelangelo Virus would soon hit our computers on a specific date. The men I worked with were literally panicking and getting stressed out. One of the high ranking men came to me with his dilemma and asked me why I was smiling. I told him I simply changed the date on my computer so that the virus date was bypassed. He was stunned. Shocked. I wish you could have seen his face. He changed the date on his computer, then told his boss. The boss called the men into a meeting. All of the men changed the date on their computers. Word was given to the fort's general and disseminated. I was glad to be of help. I was there to serve my country. A haughty soldier that I worked with openly ridiculed me for being the one who came up with the simple plan of changing the date on the computer because I'm a woman. I felt bad for his wife.
McAfee genuinely seems like the kind of guy who would absolutely be crazy enough to off himself specifically to create a conspiracy about how he didn't and what he might have known. He was that kind of weird and dramatic while way less well-connected than certain other people that's suspected about, probably knew all his fans would get a rise out of it.
@@crazypato3752 dads usually have crazy back stories (called dad lore) to explain to their sons or daughters, stuff that you never forget as a kid doing it for the dad lore means that you're doing it to have a crazy story to say to your kids when you'll have some
The quality, sound effects, animations and everything about MagnestMedia give us (the audience) all the reasons to watch every single MagnestMedia publication to the very end! Thanks JOHN, You're a real inspiration Your legacy is an inspiration to the present and future generations will dare to venture in content creation or just enjoying watching educative content in an unmatched entertaining way
Have I seen all the John McAfee documentaries already? Yes. Did I still watch this one? Yes. Do I wish Magnates Media made the first one? Also yes. Once again a killer video from a channel that deserves to be on more platforms.
Want to drop a comment, this channel brings really well thought out information. Thank you for always keeping your videos 100% quality. Love these videos most of my family watches them
Its about time you uploaded something Jóhn 😂 honestly i checked my notifications everyday hoping for a video from Magnates Media Am happy John thank you
I used to go up to this guy's ranch in Colorado where he would teach yoga breathwork in the early 2000's. Definitely quite the character. He built up a little makeshift cult around him. I personally didn't hang around for too long as something just seemed kind of off
@@ryanwilliams4223probably. But I wouldn’t doubt for one minute that at least 1-5 5:48 People from that “yoga camp” might have been completely 👀 opened people to be vocal after meeting him and using that experience to do content on any of these platforms. I just wish I could a got into $Bitcoin back when I first heard bout this dude
@@ryanwilliams4223🤔 was it all a dream? Was I really never at his ranch. Crazy?! I mean it really is quite the unbelievable story, huh? You must not get out much?
So despite being a hardcore drug user (and dealer) in the world of the 1960s you could go straight to work at NASA... In today's world you can't work minimum wage retail without routine drug screenings...
First of all taking drugs is not a sign of a bad person at all, as long as he only does it to himself there's literally nothing remotely morally questionable about it, if you want to destroy your body be my guest (I know he did some more fucked up things connected to drugs, but "druggies" just aren't inherently immoral. Using date rape drugs on someone else for instance, that's inherently immoral, just consuming substances is not). Also lots of "legends" had some incredibly fucked up life. And boy do "legends" like drugs. But hell, even Gandhi was racist and people act like he was Jesus 2.0. Doesn't make them less of a legend, legends can be fucked up too, it's all about how memorable their actions were and what kind of legacy they leave behind and McAffee had an interesting life that you could say is legendary while still acknowledging he was a terrible person. Legends aren't defined as good people dude.
He is a radical intellectual who was killed for speaking out about freedom. His faults are many and out there for all to see, but I see him as a tragic martyr of a corrupt and power hungry age.
So you're saying that the only people who he ever allegedly hurt were a wife beater, a thief, and a murderer; and that he didn't pay taxes (which when first put in were promised to be temporary, but the government went back on that because it gave them a ton of money without having to work for it). The man was cooky and should've stayed away from the drugs, but the above things I'm finding it hard to be outraged by. The info given is that no decent person had anything to fear from the man.
I recall there also being some theories on why the deadman's switch didn't trigger. Believe it had to do with a very bizarre van bomb sometime fairly shortly after his 'supposed' death. Truly some crazy stuff.
So many questions left unanswered by this doc. 1.Did anyone do the math to figure out how much money he owed the IRS? 2.If he had paid the IRS would that of kept him out of jail? 3.Why didn't he just seek political asylum like Julian Assange?
Literally. People in this comment section seem to have no clue what that word even means. Bad people can be legends too, you don't have to defend the man to think he lived a life that was very interesting. And what are legends? People that had an influence on the world and who people still talk about long after their deaths because they were so interesting, not necessarily morally good. Bad legends are still legends.
The REAL playboy! It's amazing how we use certain mainstream products in our daily lives without understanding the real story behind the people who made it possible. Greetings from Kenya.
I actually got to see one of McAfee's houses in Belize while on a river tour in Belize. As a tech guy, it was quite interesting when the tour guide pointed it out.
He had so much dirt on them. First, they try to call you crazy. Next they try to lock you up, but if that doesnt work, youre back to the main menu.. this is the same trend you see with a lot of important people
I'm so glad you covered him. His life was as crazy as the circumstances regarding his death. John was a madman but also a genius. He is missed by many.
This video is great, amazing work as always! When are you gonna cover *General Motors* and its shady history? There's a lot antics in its history from William C. Durant's ambitions of the formation of GM to GM itself working with the Nazis during World War II. The former which does involve Durant trying to buy out The Ford Motor Company.
John was a madman and a genius wrapped all in one. You'll spend a good part of your life going down this rabbit hole to separate fact from fiction and still not know the whole truth.
I really love your videos , and they honestly help relax and calm me from my depression and mental health , when I watch your videos. Also I would love it if you could Please do a video on the company lasership , it’s a horrible shipping business we all know and get packages from

@@Africa41 Exactly the same feeling 😊
The fact that a CIA airplane landed nearby a few hours before his "suicide" and then we got a super botched autopsy. says a lot.
Pretty much confirms what is obvious
I would put you on par with Mr Ballen for your story telling, only recently found you and I'm loving it! Thank you. 🙏

Still insane that Matt and Shane interviewed him while he was on the run just before his death. It was a glitch in the matrix.
It's sickening to see so many people in the comments calling him "a legend" when he was a druggie and a rapist...
