Like many of the original YouTubers, MoistCr1tiKal has been on the platform since 2007 under the channel name \u201cPenguinz0.\u201d Since then, he\u2019s amassed over 9.5m subscribers on his channel providing a wide variety of content alongside his 3.3m followers on his Twitch account. On December 12, White mentioned that he wishes everything on the internet would actually last forever. The creator went on to explain that from 2007 to 2010 he uploaded between 500 to 1,000 videos regarding Halo, Gears of War, Call of Duty, and more. However, in 2010 he deleted most of them, but now he wants them back \u2014 and he\u2019s willing to pay for them. MoistCr1tiKal issues $25,000 challenge He said: \u201cI\u2019m issuing what I believe to be an impossible challenge to the entire internet here. I know everyone on the internet loves lost media content, so I\u2019m just going to issue this challenge and put a bounty on it for anyone out there.\u201d The creator went on to give details of the challenge: \u201cIf you can find those videos and reupload them to YouTube, I will pay you for it. If you somehow find most of them [around 500] I will pay you $25,000. I\u2019ll also be paying on a video by video basis if you can find even just a few.\u201d He went on to explain that he just wants to go on a \u201cnostalgia ride\u201d and check out those old videos. MoistCr1tiKal also detailed a few things that he has tried, including reaching out to Google to see if they are still served on their servers. However, he began on the platform well before they purchased YouTube, so it led to nothing. Charles went on to note that after Google purchased the platform, any video with copyrighted music in it resulted in your entire channel being removed. It\u2019s something he didn\u2019t want to happen in his early days, and it\u2019s safe to say it\u2019s paid off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MoistCr1tiKal reveals $25,000 challenge to recover lost YouTube videos YouTube: MoistCr1tikalYouTuber Charles \u2018MoistCr1tiKal\u2019 White Jr has announced a challenge to recover hundreds of YouTube videos he deleted \u2014 with a grand prize of $25,000 to whoever finds most of them.
