Mckamey Manor initial honest review

I came over from YouTube hopefully my subscription helps a little. I found you thanks to Savannah Marie's McManley Manor video.

I feel like the mystery here is you got this broken human who once had a “thing”, lost it all, and now he’s on a “fake it til you make it” plan that has gone into overtime where he’s not capable or financially able to “make” any of this stuff real…so he paints an imaginary image of fear again and again…and weakens the contestant physically to a point where the mind starts to get on board…its similar to what is done with hostages. It’s not real in a physical sense, so he tries to make it seem and feel real. Oh, and he’s for sure done some fucked up shit to people. Overall tho, I think this is just a guy whose life got fucked up and he’s trying to keep an image he barely has left. Maybe he had a scary haunt back in the day. But he doesn’t now, and he doesn’t want anyone to put that out there. He works at Walmart for fucks sake, I’m sure that came from necessity after everything fell apart. Whatever tho, I just want to see the next episode. Shit has gotten bonkers.

I actually agree that Russ went easy on Ben for having an agreeable, here-for-fun attitude. (An attitude that’s supported by Ben’s YT history; you ultimately can’t fake being resilient in extreme, adrenaline-inducing situations.) He didn't just show up with that attitude, more importantly, he *maintained* it Sure, maybe Russ had an idea to work on his spin game with these docs coming out. He thinks he’ll convince a YT’er that he does it all for the cameras… because he expects that’s how all YT’ers think, so it would be believable to Ben? Seems to fit with Russ’s mind games M.O. On a deeper level, though, I strongly suspect that he went easy on Ben for that agreeable attitude because Ben isn’t the preferred “victim type” and that response bores him. Around 17:30, Ben says he didn’t feel any of the panic that others had described. It seems clear that Russ is selecting people who are going to be extremely vulnerable. If Russ really is a sadist, he’s going to clock that in those required introduction videos for sure. It’s predator-prey mentality, probably wouldn’t even require any conscious thought on Russ’s part. Of course I’m speculating, but I think Russ was going easy mainly because he was bored. If he gets off on hurting people, he’s going to be pretty limp over a good sport. Ben was never going to experience what fucked so many people up and got them held longer to be hurt worse because he was never in a position (dispositionally or as a doc-maker) to give Russ the responses that excite him as a sadist.

I totally think he went easy on you because he knew you were documenting all of this yourself, especially after seeing his reaction after Danny showed up and all of a sudden he's making multiple videos claiming "we dont want to hurt anyone ever" yeah okay

Man, the stuff at Mckamey Manor isn't possible because there's not an "end". He'll just do it until you're broken from it. They're not doable. He just pushes it til he finds your limit, then says you couldn't hack it. That's basically it. I don't know how there are people out there that genuinely think the Manor is legitimate still. Hope you get your YT stuff sorted and are able to relist all of your stuff publicly

I can't wait for your part 2!!! Thanks for all you do bro!

No Rumble is part of alt-right tech and even banned in France for not enforcing anti hate-speech policies. Twitter is a very different from a video platform and I think it's too unstable right now. If at all, I'd maybe consider uploading to a Peertube instance because they're a lot more independent from big companies and not necessarily associated to conspiracy theories and politics like Rumble, Odysee

OK so what was up with the utility knife cut and syringe injection? was that real or a prop/illusion?

Secondly thr YouTube algorithm is against you. Consider twitter and rumble.

One takeaway is that having a large prize at the end incentivized bad behavior—impossible tasks. Ben do you think another model would actually make this great - like 5% participants actually win a smaller prize say $5k. Similar model to escape rooms.
