Crush(ed)- the Best Worst Movie of all Time

Dan (birthday: June 27)^{[citation needed]}, better known online as Dantavius, is an American^{[citation needed]} YouTuber and TikToker known for his iceberg videos.

Content

Dan is mainly known for his videos of short comedies about different cartoon topics, commentary videos and reviews.

He created his YouTube channel on June 8, 2019, and his first video, a review of Crush(ed) (which Dan called the "worst movie ever created"), was uploaded on October 6, 2019. He has also reviewed other critically panned movies such as The Amazing Bulk and Ratatoing.^{[citation needed]}

He has made videos about frauds, conspiracy theories, disturbing subreddits and controversial internet personalities amongst anything that interests him. On occasion, he will make videos on fellow YouTubers such as FRED or Nikocado Avocado. He also makes tier lists of cartoon characters, such as Yellow Characters #tierlist, Blue Characters #tierlist, Cartoon Moms... Whose Hands I Would Hold #tierlist and Cartoon Characters Who Would Survive the Squid Games Tier List.

His YouTube channel did not gain much of an audience at first, though after Dan joined TikTok, he'd begin becoming famous on that platform, helping contribute to the growth of his YouTube channel.^{[citation needed]}

He streams on a second channel called Dantavius Darko (formerly named dani darko).

He was featured in SomeOrdinaryPodcast's episodes We're Being Silenced (ft. Dantavius) | Some Ordinary Podcast #32, and Logan Paul FINALLY Responded.... (ft. Dantavius) | Some Ordinary Podcast #57. He also collaborated with YouTubers Zeepsterd and Spotcam in his video The Darkest 4Chan Pranks.

• "Oh, and even worse than joining ISIS, he created a Soundcloud account. I don't want to listen to your horseshit music Franklin stop sending me the link. I said I was gonna listen to it but I'm not, okay. You putz, your music sucks. If it was any good you would be getting followers and wouldn't have to fucking bombard me with your stupid links every single day."
