    You built this community off the idea of helping others when no one else is there to help. That in itself has helped give meaning to many people. So thank you. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for letting your community help.

      Cheatera1 exactly, we are the zednoughts. We are all here because we believe in the same thing. not necessarily the same religion, but we believe in good for the others around us. So if a community based of the zednought principles can't help.. then are we truly zednoughts?

    I just zip tied a motorcycle face shield from a touring helmet to my face cage. It fit absolutely perfect. Prevents pepper spray and people from grabbing your face cage. I weigh 240 pounds, I don't have to worry about them dragging me away, but I do want to avoid as much pepper spray as possible. The face shield only cost me $15, and you can get them in mirror finish and tinted if you want to look like robocock.

    I can tell when a person really means something and I'm sure a lot of you can too and that at the end of video was it. I know for a fact of how great full you are for us giving you even a couple dollars and that person gave you 1k because he or she loves your videos and so do we a lot. We don't want to see you go, you may think it's just making videos but it's more. It makes a bond between the viewer, jokes, Entertainment and more and that's what great about it and you, so keep it up.

    You are one of the few genuine people left on RUclips. You're creative, clever, and have a wonderful sense of humor. I know you're against Patreon but it's one of the few ways that smaller creators are able to keep making their amazing content. I've been with you for over 4 years now and I just want to see you flourish doing what you do. God hears those who need help and I'm glad he could work through us.

    Eli, although I don't share your religious or political views I greatly respect you as a genuine person. You are strong for sticking to your guns and not giving up on this job. I've been subscribed from when you made fiberglass masks and have enjoyed this content you've been pumping out for free. Even though I don't have any interest in making most of these projects myself, your persistence and endurance inspires me in more ways than any other youtuber that make things. I appreciate all you've done for your subscribers and I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors.

    Mr. Orzechowski,
    I am ecstatic to hear that your debt has been taken care of. I too know the stress of debt deadlines. I am sorry to say that I had missed your "annoying" video when it would have been most pertinent to have viewed. However it seems you have such an extensive support network that it obviously didn't matter. Your channel appears to be growing at an exponential rate. I remember seeing 400,000 subscribers just months ago. As they say, "the big will keep on biggering".
    As you obviously know there are and will be more challenges throughout your life, both devastating and insignificant. Keep on doing what you're doing Eli. Live for the lord, and people will notice.
    Praying for you -
    Brody Kaiser

    Eli you gotta understand that some people will feel like youtubers' a part of their lives a part of their family, especially something like yours because you have kept the cleanest channel and one of the most entertaining I've seen for a while, Eli you are able to make such a connection to the people that, no matter what you feel you did wrong, we'll still be there because you somehow manage to make it entertaining. Hopefully you see this.

    WARNING DON'T UPLOAD TOO MUCH ELI AND PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF ON SUBSCRIBER BURNOUT. Find the Game theory vid and watch it because its absolutely real. It is very real and I dont wanna see you work your ass off only to realize that uploading 4 times a week, isnt actually bringing your earnings up. For me personally and your other bigger fans, Ill literally watch every video your in, I love you, but for your bulk of subscribers, they may not be as such. Just a youtube algorithm thingy. Also Eli, much of your fans just want to see you and BE with you as your FRIEND in the shop (like you said we are all just your friends paying for each other's meals.) The shit you did in this video wasnt a super cool long epic build or anything, but in my mind it was still as enjoyable (srsly). So please for the sake of your fans DONT work your self into the ground. Just put out a decent video with you being honest, trying to accomplish something at least a teeny weeny bit challenging, and bring your witty commentary along, and you'll easily bring your earnings up by putting out 3 of those a month, and one Uber cool build a month (just to keep your swag reputation honestly, so people just get a little reminder of why they are subscribed, and why they respect your bunz). Make a simple easy plan. 4 vids a month (3 eli bro in shop, accomplishing some mildly to very interesting things, 1 badass mofo vid) , the last thing we want is a blast of videos for a month and then you get burnt out physically and emotionally. Honestly Eli I just love your deep voice and its very respect inducing, and also the way you commentate your vids is funny. Play to those strengths. Because as you know, anybody can build something, its the personality we watch. We already know your good at making shit. Now we just want to hang with you in the shop, and listen to your memery, and listen to you luxurious voice humbly make fun of yourself, a bee, a pumpkin, etc. Just my two cents for bringing earnings up, without loosing subscribers and keeping your audience engaged, in a holistic, and long term fashion.
    Love,
    Seany

    That was by far one of the most heart felt videos I've seen on RUclips. It wasn't a sad puppy montage, a single individual sharing a meal with a homeless man, it was a sincere thank you given out to a community who had no idea what was wrong and why funds were needed, but they delivered through faith. I felt the gratitude at the ending speech of the video and it's nice to see not everything in the world is doom and gloom. I greatly appreciate this channel and the positivity it brings into people's lives by the simple happiness a video can bring, or people coming to our roots of what makes us human, supporting one another in our time of need. Thank you ZNA, and thank you all the supporters. May everyone be lead by positivity and strive for greatness, and may no person be ashamed to ask for a lending hand. God bless.

      we love you to infinity and back Ali (#NOHOMO) and those who care what the money is for obviously do not understand how genuine and how much you have given to supply your fans with videos as often as possible.

    most permanent marker ink is soluble in alcohol, just use some rubbing alcohol on it.

      I learned that trick after looking after kids. Rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer, booze; all works. Also good to have in the workshop is for "quick and dirty" disinfection for small wounds too.

    If only 50% of us ( the subscribers ) gave one dollar we could send him $433,000.
    That is what people call a positive force.

    Eli I don't know if you will see this but I would just like to say that when I leaned of your issue I went to church and prayed my heart out that you would be able to end your financial troubles hoping that it could help to do anything, I hope you have a blessed day

    Some people say that God will never give you more than you can handle. Those people are wrong. As we saw in your case you had way more than you could handle but God did give you a way out. God will always give you a way out. Stay strong and keep doing what you are doing.

    Dude. I just found your channel. I can say this with pride and all honesty: You've earned my subscription and a permanent fan in ANYTHING you venture into. Good luck. I'm watching all of your stuff.

  • @Hannah-mp1le

    I'm glad that your debt is almost or is payed off. I've been watching your channel for a long time now and had a couple of late nights binge watching all your videos. Even though I disagree with you on some things (which is normal for humans beings) since I have more Liberal views and consider myself a feminist (I believe in equality not females are better than men). It's really cool to see you use your creativity to create such cool things. I hope you can continue building and doing what you are passionate for since I believe that's what God wants us all to do. And I wish I would have know sooner about the donations because I would have definitely donated. Stay strong 💪

      MGsmile I like the message, but you understand that you just implied that he does not believe in equality, right?
      I do not know if you meant to, but you did when you said first that you disagreed, and then second that you believe in equality.
      Watch your wording and have a nice day!

    • @Hannah-mp1le
      @Hannah-mp1le 7 лет назад +4

      Tj B I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to imply that. I was trying to say that I'm not one of those feminists who get offended over everything or believe that all men are bad. Thank you for pointing out my mistake

    • @ryanmartin4038
      @ryanmartin4038 7 лет назад +3

      MGsmile you are a Liberal feminist, not a Libtard feminazi. I can respectfully disagree with the first, while the second is just an oxygen thief. Thanks for trying to keep the conversation civil.

    I know I'm watching older videos but I believe in exactly what you're saying about helping a friend out and not knowing what you did deserve this. But I'm down in Florida and out of almost all of my friends and co-workers I'm the only one with power. My house has become a sanctuary for all of them I've been cooking for them non-stop and helping people get here to get water and get cleaned up. Even feed their animals. A lot of them feel the same way you felt in this video and the only reason o can think of for helping them is because we are all human and we all need a "pick me up". I gave all I could to help out the people around me today and I'm going to be doing the exact same thing tomorrow:) because we are all human:) keep going my dude. I just found your videos last night during all of the storming and you kept me grounded while I delt with everything so please keep making more videos!
