Original title was “Meet the Man Who Fooled the World”.
Followed by "Meet the Man Who Entertained the World".
and subsequently "Meet the Man Who Found a Real Mermaid".

The "mermaid ideology" is like saying it's ok to clickbait as long as the viewers still enjoy the video

You know, I kind of disagree on the idea that the "joke" he was played as young, alone, set him on the path to what he became. I would rather say that the disregard for honesty was a behavior brought down within the family culture. That is, this was probably no the only cruel joke he experienced among his family.
It just was their family culture - or that is my guess.

You should have talked more about Jumbo. He wasn't tragically killed by a train, he went on a tirade when his handler wasn't there - the only handler who could make him feel better - and stood on the tracks, challenging the train. He toppled the train, dying in the process. This giant elephant fought a train to a draw.

Man, I wouldn't be surprised if he was the one who set fires to his museums to claim insurance.

This is so successful because it plays into the habit we have with the fascination of talking about ourselves

When you think about it, what's so different between his hoaxes and a magic show? We know what we're seeing isn't real, but we still pay for the opportunity to be entertained by it.

I can't believe that drunk elephant never caused any damage. Can't think of a much more destructive force

As clever, charming, and deceptive of a man he was he still had an enemy that plagued him through all his endeavours; fire

Work ethic has been phenomenal recently. Insanely consistent uploads whilst still retaining great quality. Thank you, Thoughty2.

75, blind, paralysed, riddled with arthritis and and half dead.

Damn the 20% of people lucky to even live relatively long back then must have been waiting for death.

Thoughty 2 is the type of person that can inspire many people to grow a mustache and keep it if he had a beard he would be saying hey its the wizard here

Love how the majority of horrible things he did aren’t in the movie

1:34 That's a scarily accurate description of me, you sure you're not a clairvoyant?

I love the “painting” of Hugh Jackman in the library. 😂
