00:00YouTube's former golden boy David Dobrik is back after a lengthy hiatus.
00:06And this time, he's jacked, but with a handful of serious controversies under his belt, including
00:10an incident where he nearly killed one of his friends with a crane.
00:15Should we really be accepting him back with such open arms?
00:20Before leaving YouTube in 2022, David Dobrik was one of the most well-loved vloggers in
00:24the history of the platform.
00:25Dobrik was known for his lively, action-packed vlogs full of laughs, flashy editing, celebrity
00:30cameos, giveaways, and stunts.
00:32At the height of his career, David had a television show, a podcast, an app, and all the sway
00:36he needed to do just about anything he wanted.
00:38Then in 2021, one of the vlog squad's members, Dirty Dom, was accused of assault stemming
00:43from a 2018 vlog.
00:44The video, which was filmed by David, showed Dom entering a bedroom at a party to hook
00:48up with a woman who was allegedly too drunk to consent.
00:52David apologized and cut ties with Dom, but he and the other members of his crew, the
00:56vlog squad, got some serious heat because of the incident.
00:58This includes member Jeff Wittek, who was famously grilled on an episode of the Frenemies
01:02podcast about whether or not he supplied underage girls with alcohol that night.
01:06While this incident alone wasn't enough for David to call it quits, it did get people
01:10to look back on a 2020 incident involving David, Jeff, and a crane.
01:14That year, the vlog squad filmed a video that saw Jeff grab onto a rope attached to an excavator
01:18in the water.
01:19David proceeded to swing the arm of the crane around in circles as Jeff held on for dear
01:23life.
01:24It was all good until David slowed down the crane, causing Jeff to smash into the machine.
01:28The incident nearly killed Jeff, and according to Jeff, caused permanent vision and mental
01:32problems.
01:33Since then, he's gone through some serious surgeries to fix the damage.
01:36He's also embroiled in a lawsuit with David.
01:38It's been speculated that these are the reasons David stopped posting content to YouTube in
01:422022, but David never left the internet entirely.
01:45Instead, he moved to Snapchat and started pursuing other business ventures like a pizza
01:50place called Doe Bricks, which Dave Portnoy gave a brutal 6.4 in his one-bite review.
01:54This move left some vlog squad members in the dark, including longtime friend Jason
01:58Nash, who became a bit of a laughingstock in recent years for his TikTok livestreams.
02:02Now, at the start of 2025, David is back with his first vlog in two years, and not a whole
02:07lot has changed.
02:08The vlog retains the same frantic style and comedy as his old content, and sees David
02:12and his friends traveling the world and having fun.
02:14He also shows off his new abs to all of his friends, which has garnered a variety of responses
02:20One Twitter user wrote,
02:21"'David Doe Brick' looks like he the first head transplant survivor."
02:23Another wrote,
02:24"'Jack's David Doe Brick' is so scary.
02:25Get it off my screen."
02:26While many are happy to see David back on YouTube, his critics aren't too pleased.
02:30Trisha Paytas, an outspoken critic of David, tweeted,
02:33"'David Doe Brick' returning to YouTube, doing the same thing he was doing in 2019.
02:37What could possibly go wrong?"
02:38The vlog suggests that we're likely to see a lot more of David in 2025, including a revival
02:43of his podcast, Views, with co-host Jason Nash.
02:45At least Jason can stop going live on TikTok now.
