Internet Anarchist — The Deserved Downfall of Boogie2988 | Internet Anarchist. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
Boogie2988, a K-Steve Williams, is currently undergoing the biggest downfall of his career. I don't! I don't want you to stay here! I'm just working! You're just a little day and my dad is dead and my mom is dead! I'll talk about those businesses! Tell them what! But I'm dead and dizzy or dead! He's on the verge of bankruptcy. I think my net worth is zero. Once you pull the equity out of the house, get rid of the house that sell off all my collectibles and pay off all my debts, I think that puts me at zero dollars. And his alienated omer's entire audience through his lies, scams and manipulative behavior. Like I told you, I spent the last two years getting treated for it. I've been told by my doctor for the last two years. It's fine, but you just admit it's not in the portal. It's not on there. I told you this. I think I'll have to do the work on this. Hi, I'm the internet anarchist. I create weekly YouTube documentaries. And today, we'll be looking at the disturbing downfall of one of YouTube's OG creators,
Buggie2988, the man who was once considered the Mr. Rodgers of the internet and regularly amazed fans with his down-to-earth and positive personality. On my size, regardless of the things that I have endured, inflicted upon myself, and have been inflicted upon me. And they ask me why I can be happy, why I can be soft when the world is trying to make me hard. I think the answer to that question is very simple. And what makes me different from a lot of people that might be in the same predicament or same situations that I've been in is that I've maintained hope. The majority of the money we make goes into the bank. We do not live very large by the stretching imagination. I mean, obviously, I'm large. Buggie, you make me feel human. Thank you for existing. Thank you, Buggie. That was very powerful. You're an inspiration to us all. And you're an awesome human, Buggie. Thanks for making this video. Until you throw it all away in the pursuit of women, fame, and money. You're on a lot of medicine, Buggie. Is any of those medicines that SSRI?
Go to yourself. I will divulge no more medical information to any of you mother f**kers. This is... You ain't got to tell me what it is. That is a bebbey of medicine. But Buggie wasn't always the headable villain that he is today. He's been around since 2006, when YouTube was dominated by her made vlogs and funny cat videos. At the beginning of his career, Buggie was known as the overweight but lovable nerdy guy. Who most people found charming because he openly embraced his flaws and didn't shy away from making fun of himself. You're the fat ass. You're the fat ass. You're the fat ass. For my younger viewers, he was kind of like the case of early YouTube. When he wasn't playing the over-the-top fat Francis character, Buggie would engage with his audience by sharing details about his personal life, childhood, and financial situation. What's up, ladies and gentlemen of YouTube, Buggie tonight at 8. Coming at you live once again to the power of the internet. You may not know me as Buggie tonight at 8. You may know me as my character, Francis, who gets really angry all the time and breaks stuff. But that's okay.
I'm just glad you know me at all. A lot of people have asked me to draw my life story. It's kind of sad, but I'd like to do that for you now. His advice about money in particular was a breath of fresh air for his subs, who found him relatable and loved how responsible he was with his finances. As I want to remind you that this is a brand new medium that is very, very lucrative. And you could be as successful as me. You could be as successful as some of the top tier YouTubers who are making millions of dollars. You two could be bringing $200, $300,000 a year like FalsyTube or sorry, a month like FalsyTube and spend it on whatever the alley you want. This would allow him to slowly grow his channel, Patreon, and unlock a new source of income through Twitch when it launched in 2011. It was even named 2016's trending gamer of the year. It's a $200,000
By 2017, Boogie had broken through the 4 million subscribers mark on YouTube and even earned enough money to pay for his weight loss surgery. This was a milestone moment for both him and his community, who had supported him unconditionally up until this point. Unfortunately, this surgery would also mark the start of Boogie's downfall. Not long after the surgery, Boogie announced splitting up from his wife through a video titled, It's True. Why for now are getting a divorce? Here's what's next. In the video, he explained how in the lead up to surgery, their marriage was already in a rough spot while admitting that his anxiety disorder was the real problem. Our marriage was far from perfect. Me and my wife had one major issue that was persistent throughout the entire marriage and that was my anxiety disorder. My clinically diagnosed PTSD. What, you know, man, I probably should never even say this publicly, but I think she'd forgive me and even if she doesn't, we're divorced now so I don't have to worry about it.
We were in a loop in which my anxiety was so bad that she was kind of walking on eggshells all the time because she was afraid of scaring me, upsetting me, hurting me. And the way she reacted to my anxiety was very frequently with fight or flight and for her that mostly meant fight. His wife had wanted to separate for a long time, but just was waiting for him to get healthier and once he started losing weight, she felt it was finally the right time to initiate the divorce. Towards the middle of October, she told me that she was thinking about separating. Now that it was out of the surgery and now that it was nice and healthy, we talked about it and decided that she should take a break in November, in which she did. She was gone for about three weeks and about two weeks into that. She called up and said that she had made her decision that she wanted things to be a more permanent change and that we should start moving in that direction. According to Boogie, the divorce was amicable with both sides agreeing to part ways peacefully. His wife even offered to take less than 50 bison of his assets. But one day we were talking about money and I'm like, what do you want? She's like, I want what's fair?
She said I want what's fair. I want enough to where I know I'm going to be taken care of for a good while. That's all I worry about. And I'm like, okay, so she gave me a number and I'm like, but that's not half. And she's like, what do you mean it's not? She wasn't half of what we were worth. It was less. It was less. But despite the mutual understanding, the legal system in the US do require Boogie to give her half of everything he owned. Yeah, that's that's how it works in Arkansas. And and so like she's legally entitled to 50%. At first, Boogie seemed to come to terms with how things played out, accepting the situation for what it was. However, it didn't take long for the cracks to show. Fans who watched his video after the divorce could tell something had shifted. What was once Boogie's wholesome and helpful advice to viewers began to feel like the start of a downward spiral, one that he never truly recovered from. The rambling videos that had once focused on helping his audience now seemed more like a cry for hell. Over time, these videos became an outlet for him to seek sympathy for his struggles with depression and anxiety.
Despite all of this, Boogie managed to retain much of his audience, who still believed in his potential to bounce back and return to the happy, healthier version of himself. It even seemed like Boogie himself had realized how bad things had gotten and was ready to put in the effort to revive his channel. First off, let's say 2018, as we've talked about, was one of the roughest years of my life and it really showed here on the channel. It shows the content that I produced sometimes it was super engaged, sometimes I wasn't. Sometimes the France stuff was incredible, sometimes it was miserable. Sometimes I would just take to the, I didn't feel like making a video so I would make a rambling video and I would just complain and whine and just be miserable. And that's the person I was in 2018. After posting the last video about his divorce in October 2018, Boogie followed up with another video titled State of the Channel in 2019. In this video, he openly admitted that his story time rambling videos had turned into a way to gain sympathy and that the pity party needed to end. While he seemed enthusiastic about his
story, he was too late to be able to get his revenge. During his divorce proceedings, Boogie began dating a woman named Lucy. They met on the controversial dating site Seeking.com, a platform designed to connect sugar daddies with sugar babies, offering companionship or more in exchange for monetary compensation. At first, Boogie denied any involvement in the sugar baby arrangement, claiming, also, truting a nice in being called to her and being a good, successful, happy person that she could be attracted to also works. It's a lot cheaper too, but he would eventually be outed as a liar when his account on Seeking was uncovered a short while later after this tweet. This discovery forced Boogie to come clean once and for all, using an old account named Uberwolf on his own subreddit. But the drama didn't end there. About six months after the divorce was filed, Lucy released a video sharing her side of the story, which she posted on Boogie's subreddit. According to her, the relationship was a far from pleasant experience,
describing him as an asshole. She accused him of verbally abusing her whenever she wanted to leave him and to mention how he didn't even pay for her services like he was supposed to. I'd wait for him to finish up doing his work and whatever, and pretty much I was not making any income. I was scraping me and buying me out of school. I got asked him, hey, can I put some money in my bank account so I wouldn't get an overdraft. Okay, well, here's 20 bucks. Cool. So I would do that and then, you know, I have bills to pay. In response to this backlash, Boogie decided to clear the air by going on Kim's side show drama alert and presenting his own version of
the events. The only way she can make money is if she's at home doing her cam girl stuff, right? And that you wouldn't like let her leave the house. Is that true? But she didn't live here like, she lived, she lives at home where she has her own home. He claimed that Lucy was his girlfriend and to go dig her. Not a sugar baby, he hired from Seeking.com. It sounds like in the video that she's like low on money. Has she been asking you for money? I don't feel comfortable talking about anything, but you know, she's a girl who's always needed a little help from time to time. You know, and I don't know what to say about that. So for those who weren't seen on drama alert, I'll put it here. Final word on this. We dated 10 weeks. It didn't work out. She had bad feelings about it, which she is entitled to have. Sorry, it worked out that way. Nothing but love for her. Go and watch and support her. Kim's eyes approached throughout the interview was notably neutral, allowing Boogie to present his narrative with minimal pushback. As a result, some viewers felt this gave Boogie the opportunity
to shape the story in his favor without being thoroughly questioned. However, for many, Boogie's continued denial of meeting Lucy through Seeking.com only reinforced doubts about his honesty. While this didn't cause an immediate decline in his channel's popularity, it did lead some fans to view him as an unreliable narrator. That wasn't until another bombshell about Boogie would drop, that left him scrambling to defend himself. Just three days after Boogie uploaded his state of the channel in 2019 video, a 5,000-word mega thread was posed on a subreddit by an anonymous user. Tied all, the hidden truth Boogie doesn't want you to know. Criticism mega thread. It basically caught him out for being a hypocrite and the opposite of the nice guy who was pretending to be for his audience. One major criticism was Boogie's disturbing behavior on stream, which contrasts it sharply with his YouTube persona. In one specific incident, Boogie's Twitch was being critiqued by a YouTuber, Actual Jake and his partner. Boogie responded
to this by jumping on the call with them and threatening to send his dog to the pound. The mega thread also highlighted some of Boogie's more troubling statements, including one, his shocking claim that good things came from the Holocaust.
I'm hoping when I get too old, I just get assisted in medical school if I'd rather than go that way than an agonizing death. Yeah, I hear you. I think when the time comes, I'm going to have no problem pulling the trigger or like once I fully give up hope, was I fully ready to go once the internet has forgotten about me and you guys don't need me anymore and I'm not needed around anymore. And if I haven't found a wife and I haven't had kids or something like that and haven't had the life that I wanted for myself and I'm just miserable and alone, I don't think I'll have any problem pulling the trigger. But while the thread was damning for people who read it, it was still person to a fairly listener and subreddit, Oslo Sam and Tolkien. And it likely would have never reached the majority of Boogie's fans if he didn't broadcast it to his audience. But Boogie being Boogie, he couldn't resist ongoing on a rant about the entire subreddit, accusing them of being out to get him for the past three years. This subreddit has been actively attacking me and going through everything I've ever said and
every thought ever done on the internet for the last three years. Doing this only fuelled as critics further. Turning Boogie's once overwhelmingly positive comments section back in 2017 into a wall of hate and criticism. His subscriber count also took a major hit, with Boogie losing over 100,000 subscribers in just four months. At this point, unable to handle the mounting criticism, Boogie released a video titled, Taking a Break, I Give Up, You Guys When. During the video, he announced that he would be taking a break from YouTube to focus on his mental health. Unfortunately, this only worsened things for his channel. As viewers began to realize that Boogie had lost their passion for creating content and was struggling to come up with new ideas to grow his audience. Even after returning from his quote, mental health break, Boogie's post on his channel became more sporadic and his views reflected that. Dropping from more than 10 million views per month in January 2018, to just over 2 million views per month in October 2019. And by the start of 2020, his channel, which used to provide some of
the most uplifting and wholesome content on YouTube, had devolved into a platform for Boogie to complain and apologize for his life choices. But this didn't seem to matter to him, as his spending habits were still as reckless as ever. Midway through the decline in viewership on his channel, Boogie decided to buy a $100,000 Tesla X. At first, he was ecstatic about buying his dream car. With a tweet reading, I legit just bought a Tesla. This is my first new car in my lifetime. I am shaking banked, so excited. But soon after, reality set in, Boogie admitted in a tweet reading, so sitting here, realizing I just bought a car I can barely afford. He then tried to put a positive spin on things, by saying, you would think my anxiety would be going nuts. It isn't. I'm feeling confident that I can work harder every day and use a car and debt as an inspiration to create better content. However, his followers weren't convinced by this newfound optimism, with one replying, roundabout way to find confidence. But okay, later, talking about the story of the purchase on stream, Boogie had a full meltdown, confessing that he couldn't afford the Tesla he had just purchased.
I would then turn to his viewers, and in classic Boogie style, he tried to manipulate them into helping him pay for his $100,000 Tesla. I still owe $200,000 in the house. All this coming from a man who used to preach about
not quote living large, and spending most of his money on making better content for his viewers. The majority of the money we make goes into the bank. We do not live very large by the stretch of the imagination. I mean, obviously, I'm large, but we do not spend a grotesque amount of money. Meanwhile, Boogie's downfall continued, and over the next year, his Patreon took a significant hit, with his membership numbers harving as he took even longer breaks from both YouTube and Twitch. But Boogie's efforts to ruin his own reputation didn't stop there, as he would end up committing a serious crime in the next few months. Now, Boogie has faced criticism and trolling throughout his career, which has often resulted in heated exchanges with his detractors. His frequent attempts to respond, whether through Twitter, Reddit, or his own videos, usually just ended up making matters worse. One of the most notorious situations occurred between 2020 and early 2021, when Boogie clashed with a disgraced YouTuber, Frank Castle, who had been banned from YouTube for harassing other
Frank blamed Boogie for his ban and publicly declared war against him on Twitter. Boogie initially tried to diffuse the situation by privately messaging him, her pink to settle things without further escalation. However, when this didn't work, it came soundfited both Boogie and Tassel onto drama alert to settle the differences on air.
Unfortunately, the interview spiralled out of control. Rather than resolving the conflict, both parties began issuing death threats with each sharing the other to quote, try it. Unfortunately, I can't actually play the audio due to it containing multiple death threats and abusive language. I had both of them on for an interview. Quite frankly, Boogie looks bad. He's threatening Frank's life if he shows up. And I didn't want to put that interview out because I was afraid that people The feud reached its breaking point when on September 28th, 2020, Frank Castle took things from the virtual world into the real world. He posted on Twitter that he had arrived in Fayetteville, Arkansas, boogie's hometown, with a clear intention of confronting him face to face. Come on, you fucking pussy, what's the deal? True to his word, House of Winter boogie's house later that day, fully prepared for a confrontation.
Boogie, feeling threatened, responded by pulling out a firearm and firing a quote warning shot in House's direction. Where's the gun at? You fat f***er! Open fire! Open fire! You fat f***er! Oh my god! Is this real? Is this gonna kill me? This was incredibly dangerous, considering there was a school in Boogie's neighborhood and the bullet could have landed there. As you can imagine, the moment went viral on both YouTube and Twitter, which alerted authorities of the situation. And on the 11th of May 2021, just a few months after the event, the authorities put out warrant for Boogie's arrest. The following day, Boogie turned himself into the police and was later released on the 1st of June 2021, following processing and bail. While all of this was happening, Boogie's financial situation was only worsening. He was already facing mounting debt and he now had to dip into his funds to cover legal fees as well. However, things took an unexpected turn.
When Boogie posted a video titled, I Am Rich, How Crypto Made Me Rich, where he claimed that a recent cryptocurrency investment had turned his fortunes around. It's looked like Boogie's financial troubles were finally over. But as we would later find out, this was only the beginning of a much larger issue. Boogie's gamble in the volatile world of crypto would ultimately dig him into a deeper financial hole. In the I Am Rich video, Boogie explained that he had made a risky bet. By investing most of his liquid earnings into crypto, and the gamble had paid off because he had basically doubled his money with the investment.
But despite claiming that his financial problems were behind him, Boogie tried to go to the market. But as fate would have it, Boogie's time as a rich crypto man would be short-lived. This was just a year ago who had posted another video titled, I Need Your Help, in which it explained how he lost all the money he had earned from crypto and some of his savings by making a bad investment. The bad reason is I'm finally in a position where I have to get back to work. And I'm not making any excuses here. You know I spent a tremendous amount of money on dumb, dumb things. But the biggest issue is that I had a nice big nest egg. I took some financial advice from a friend and I'm not pointing fingers necessarily.
I took the advice but I put my money in the crypto market in the wrong section and I pretty much lost most of everything. He would then ask his audience to help him keep the lights on through donations and by watching his videos. So that's why I'm asking for your help today. And it's as simple as two groups of people here I want to talk to. The first of which is fans who just like the content. If you click on videos you like and you watch them to the end and you drop a like and you leave a comment, you share it with friends and you click the notifications. And you do the YouTube stuff, you're doing plenty. There's a second group of people who might find themselves able to do a little more and if you're one of those people. I'm asking for your help today too. Do you like the t-shirts I have? This one's not in the merch lane shop yet but there's several and I'm making new designs all the time. And if you like a t-shirt, buy a t-shirt. It'll make like a $9 profit over a $25 purchase. As you can expect, the video was heavily criticized with several commenters urging their fellow viewers to not give in to book these requests. And that is forced to quote, get a real job like everyone else. With comments reading, as a live pro tip to any youngsters here, never ever donate money
to anyone online. These people all have more than you and you'll end up going to work so they don't have to. I'm sorry Boogie but you aren't the only one struggling. Get out there and get a job and earn your money. As well as, guys, this man is richer than most of us watching him even after the mistakes he made. He squandered his money and wants an easy out. Do not feed into it. The world is cruel and if you want to put your faith into something, give your money to trusted places that will actually help individuals who need it. Don't give into pressure from financially irresponsible esileberities. Despite all of the mistakes and controversies Boogie found himself in over the years, there was still some in his audience who saw him as a guy who just had some bad luck. To them, he wasn't manipulative, just someone who had faced tough breaks. Especially when it came to money and weight loss struggles. Well, in 2023, that persona would be shattered. In early 2023, it was announced that a documentary would be made on Boogie, capturing the events in his life from 2019 to 2021. The documentary was to be director Mike Clums' debut on YouTube. And in October 2023, the documentary titled The Dark Sad Life of Boogie 2988 was officially
released on the platform. The documentary quickly opened many of Boogie's fans eyes, providing a deeper, more honest look into the man behind the YouTuber's sonar. The doc revealed several startling details, especially when it came to Boogie's financial habits. The major revelations was where a significant portion of Boogie's money had gone. According to the documentary, between 2019 and 2021, Boogie spent over $200,000 on sex workers alone. He reportedly took them on vacations, brought them lavish gifts, and treated them to expensive dinners. I took women on vacations, and I took them out to fancy dinners, and I took them to like, Disneyland and shit. All while apparently struggling to make ends meet on a monthly basis and paying off a mortgage on the house he lives in. I deserved to go to New York and sport times square with this beautiful girl. Right? Like, I deserved that. And I want that, and I've never had it.
Man, if I had that money back, that would be half of my mortgage. The documentary also featured an interview with one of this f***ers Boogie had hired, who confirmed the details Boogie had already admitted to. She recounted how Boogie had bought her a purse, gift cards, and dinner, all in one night, spending over $5,000. She further admitted to sleeping with Boogie later that evening in his hotel room. We got back to the hotel, and I do regret to say that I slept with Boogie 298. The interview ended with the now-famous line, which left a lasting impact on viewers. I am not married, but two kids, and sleeping with Boogie is one of the reasons I quit sex work. These revelations naturally hit Boogie's fans hard. However, what truly caught his audience off guard was Boogie's disturbing outlook on women, as revealed in the documentary. It's not a revelation.
I liked beautiful women. I liked to hang out with beautiful women, f***ing beautiful women. We all do. I never got to do that. The women I dated were pretty sure, but they were like Arkansas 8s. Not LA 10s. With sugaring, I got to f*** some LA 10s, and I think that's cool. He treated them almost like objects for his own amusement. But the biggest talking point to come out of the documentary was Boogie's controversial relationship with his then-girlfriend, Deves, who was just 20 years old at the time, while Boogie was 49. For those who are already aware of their relationship, the documentary amplified their discomfort with the significant age gap. It gave viewers a behind-the-scenes look into their relationship, prompting some of them
to comment on how concerned they were about Boogie manipulating this young girl and disdain with him. With comments reading, the way he showed her as an entire medical overview and stressed how close he was to dying made my skin crawl. That is so f***ing much for a 50-year-old man to dump on a 20-year-old girl, as well as quote, The Revealation that Deves had grown up in a broken home and had massive abandonment issues also made the situation more alarming. Especially since Boogie is seen dumping all of his trauma on her and constantly scaring her that he might die during their relationship. I really want you to understand how sick I am.
Like I don't know if you actually get it, but this is my health summary. This is everything that's currently wrong with me. My risk for stroke or heart attack is astronomical. I am essentially a walking time on. I'm so f***ing sorry for that. I really, really wish I had taken better care of my body. Yeah, I know. Now while the dog exposed Boogie for a lot of weird behaviour, he did benefit in some way after its release. He immediately got back into the YouTube grind and started posting more regularly, however something even bigger happened in the months I've followed that would allow Boogie back on the path to financial stability. The creation of the now infamous podcast Low Cow Live. The podcast set up by Kingstar was designed to help Boogie get back on his feet financially and increases channel's views.
And for a time, the podcast was Boogie's saving grace, giving him the means to generate an income and pay off the mortgage on his house and medical bills. But that wasn't the podcast's only purpose. You see, while the podcast was designed to help Boogie, it was also designed as a means to embarrass and demean Boogie for all the controversies, lies, and to manipulation. He had put his fans through. Basically, it was his punishment. I get it. What's up, man? How you doing? Are you alright? You got it. Hey, let me go to the hip side. Go ahead. Let me go. Let me go. What the f*** is this? What? Yeah. I'm fine. I cannot wait. It was like, our chat's going to be like calling his local police precinct right now. There's a drunk man on the side of the highway in a yellow vest. Why does his crocs match his whole fit? I wonder why did he put all the f***ing tennis shoes? But despite all of that, Boogie did not seem to learn his lesson. Because what he did next alienated almost everyone who had remained by his side despite
all of his previous controversies. On the 26th of June 2024, Boogie made an announcement on Twitter endorsing a new crypto meme coin, the fatty token, and launching a free giveaway for anyone who replied to the tweet with their Solana wallet address. The next day, Boogie posted a video onto his channel in which he was parodying Andrew Tate. Due to Boogie's efforts, the coins are a massive surgeon value almost overnight, reaching the 3 million market one point. But it's for will was just as sudden as it's rise. The coin lost 90% of its value in one day, causing huge losses for anyone who had invested in it at Boogie's request. With a tweet from Coffeezilla reading, your coins value just went up. Then, fatty coin is down 90% in the last 24 hours. And the developers vanished, causing many people to label it as a pump and dumps game that Boogie was in on. This resulted in even more outrage, especially since most of his audience remember how he lost all of his money in crypto just 3 years prior. With the entire instant raging at Boogie, the matter was handed over to Coffeezilla, the leading crypto scam investigator on YouTube, who decided to interview Boogie to an Earth
is involvement in the scam once and for all. The interview revealed that Boogie had taken a $10,000 payment to promote the scam coin. You're going to get paid $10,000 for something and those people aren't expecting a greater return on their investment. This is how meme coins work. When Grude about scamming his audience, Boogie played the victim card once again, stating that he had no idea it was a pump and dumps game. Well, I accept the fact that you're telling me I'm ripping people off and I accept that that might very well be true and I don't need to be. And it was not my intention, my intention. And that the entire thing was supposed to be a meme and people weren't actually supposed to buy the coin. It's the point. I thought it would go viral as a meme coin, as a joke, as a comedy bit. I thought that it would make people laugh. I thought people... An investment is never a comedy, like people who are trying to tie comedy to investments is hilarious. When asked to return the money, Boogie wrote that he was going to be a big fan of the money. When asked to return the money, Boogie revealed that he'd already spent it all on one of his medical debts because he was battling cancer.
You didn't have to tweet that tweet, you didn't have to tweet it out. At this point, Mercer the internet knew that Boogie had been finding cancer for almost two years. So even though his role in the scam made several of his fans angry, some of them were still willing to let him go out of pity. In fact, his cancer is one of the reasons why so many of his fans have continued to send him donations and purchased his memberships despite as many controversies and questionable statements. So it came as quite a shock to the small few that remained when questions started being raised about Boogie's cancer diagnosis. Questions that Boogie was unable to answer. It all started on the 11th of July 2024, on a star started episode of Law Cal Live when the YouTuber Destiny joined the call and instantly called Boogie out on faking his cancer diagnosis. To give you a bit of context here, Boogie had announced on his channel a year ago that he
had polycythemia vera, a rare form of leukemia that causes body to produce too many red blood cells. Destiny was refuting that claim, indicating that instead of having polycythemia vera, Boogie had secondary polycythemia, a condition that also resulted in the increased production of red blood cells, but was not a form of cancer. Boogie was told that he has polycythemia, which means he has an elevation of his red blood cells. Now, there is a cancer known as polycythemia vera, which is caused by a mutation in some part of your body that causes an elevation of three different levels of things you will find. One of those is the red blood cell count. However, when Boogie was talking about the polycythemia, he mentioned a couple things that I thought were interesting. The first was that taking an exogenous hormone, TRT testosterone, that caused a increase
in him developing this condition. Taking testosterone will not cause you to develop a cancer. For this particular cancer, it won't. It will cause you to develop secondary polycythemia. The second that he mentioned was that his doctor ordered a sleep study. That's because one of the things that can cause your body to produce more red blood cells is if you have hypoxemia, which is a low amount of oxygen in your blood for an extended period of time. The reason why he ordered that sleep study is because Boogie either has either pulmonary obstructive, something or he has, as he mentioned, sleep hypnia. Sleep hypnia, which is a decrease in oxygen overnight, can lead to a decrease in oxygen in your blood, which can lead to an increase in the production of red blood cells. All of the things that Boogie described, both the things that caused this and the treatments for it, are consistent with secondary polycythemia. Boogie obviously rejected this explanation by claiming that his doctor had told him that he had polycythemia vera. It is secondary polycythemia. Can you explain? Can you call it polycythemia vera?
Why would he tell me that I have hormone mark markers in my blood that tells me I have polycythemia vera? At this point, the rest of the call starts asking to see Boogie's medical papers so they can put the whole situation to bed right there. Boogie, you have all, you will keep saying you're the patient, you know what you have your body has. Yes, doctor, but I go to the doctor, they give me like this, which is like peppers that will tell me. I'm going to say, look at this whole thing. I mean, a single document with polycythemia vera on it. You don't have one. I don't think the doctor ever diagnosed you with it. But Boogie would continuously refuse a docer while getting noticeably angry up. I'm never going any of these motherfuckers. I said that two years ago, and I'm standing by now, destiny Jackson Clark team star, you can see it when I can die. It's my fucking goddamn medical record. I've given you every goddamn job. Things were taken even more chaotic turn when destiny proceeded to put up a bounty of $5,000 to see Boogie's medical records. If Boogie can confirm, Boogie can confirm that his polycythemia vera and he actually has like a doctor confirmation of the blood cancer, all throw $5,000 towards his medical treatment.
I'll make that personal pledge right now. But Boogie would refuse once again. I'll find you. Hey, you're not in my medical records for 20, not for 50, you're not seeing my medical records. I just take that as you're the medical record. I'll give you a little rest. This came at a huge shock considering Boogie was prepared to scam his audience with a scam coin for just $10,000 a month prior, and had developed a reputation for doing almost anything for money. Meanwhile, the situation continued to escalate, with YouTubers Mr. Metoker and Mooter Ha from some ordinary gamers also joining the call and putting up their own money to bring a bounty up to $25,000. Some ordinary gamers will also put $10,000 towards it. Make it a hundred, make it a million. If you have cancer, if you pray. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, you got 25K sitting on the table. There's something going on here. Yeah, there's something to use, man, I'm just exhausted. I'm done. Still Boogie refused, and the only reason he presented for refusing was to protect the last bastion of privacy he had left.
This made the entire incident even more suspicious, since Boogie has made the habit of broadcasting every minor detail of his personal life on the internet. For the next few days, several YouTubers, including Keemstar and Mooter Ha, would continue to ask Boogie to admit that he did not have polycythemia vera on low-cal live, and Boogie would eventually cave. Finally, admitting that his polycythemia very diagnosis had never been confirmed, and losing what little fan following he had left in the process. I already looked it up on the web portal, I already screened it as a matter of just fucking dropping that in the group chat. Just so you know, but we're not fucking doing that. But look right there, you don't even have to do it in the group yet. Just send it to me. No, send it to me. I told you, four days ago you were looking at it. Four days ago you said you were looking at it, so I told you, I spent the last… He did, and I remember, he specifically said, I'm looking right at it, but I refused to share it with you. That's what the first part of this was, he doesn't say in that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like I told you, I spent the last two years getting treated for it. I've been told by my doctor for the last two years. It's fine, but just admit it's not in the portal. It's not on there. I told you this. To this point, it's no secret that Boogie had burned his last bridge with his fans, and the comments on his recent videos reflect that perfectly. With most of them calling him out for all the controversy and lying he has been involved in. With comments reading, here's Boogie shopping, after he was crying last year about not making his house payment and bills trying to get money out of people. It never ends with him. I like how he reminds of yours who's broke the whole video, as well as, for Halloween, Boogie should dress up as the guy with polysethemia Vera. Surprisingly, it does seem like Boogie's taking some responsibility for his actions, by getting the word lie tattooed on his face as a punishment for lying about cancer. But honestly, it's too little too late. While this is likely the end of Boogie's YouTube career, he is still posting videos and
trying to revive his channel. But whether or not his channel will start growing again is a mystery that only time can tell. Make sure you subscribe to stay updated on this situation.
