good youtube videos with less than 5k views

[maj]

this is a thread for when you find a good you-tube video with less than 5k views

videos are ideally very old

things which are good:

unusually high effort
nostalgic
uncomfortably intimate
cultural snapshot
surreal

I found this weird pair of videos with <5k views between them but I ended up going down a bit of a rabbit hole.

I was looking for DIY tips and I found these vids. I was about half way through the first one when I realised I was watching something odd and not what I was looking for.



In the second video he really starts gratuitously disembowelling the shoes. At one point he rips the upper off the sole and wears it over his other shoes like a sock.



I clicked through to the guy's channel and he's got literally hundreds of videos like this going back 8 years where he's stamping on and destroying sneakers, mostly adidas.

Spoiler:

The first "stripe removing" video had comments from confused normies like myself who must have just been looking for DIY videos but the second one had these comments.

Spoiler:

Clearly there was an intended audience for these videos, and more than one person making them implying some kind of community. A fetish thing maybe? I had to dig further, I noticed that a lot of fanfare1234's videos had the word "kill" in the title so I searched for "sneaker kill videos" and I came across a few instagram accounts with similar content.

Based on some of the comments on these posts I'm 100% sure this is a fetish thing by this point. I noticed that one of them had a link to this website http://www.everythingmustdie.com/ in the bio, the same as the title of the original Samba videos. I clicked through to this and it turns out there's a thriving community with dozens of contributors all based around destroying, stamping on, writing on with sharpie or otherwise dirtying sportswear.

You can view a lot of stuff for free or subscribe to get premium content, I am curious as to what is shown in these paywalled videos/photos.

I'm glad that these people have a place that they can share what they love but I am perplexed as to how a community like this forms in the first place, or even how you realise that this is what you're into, I guess my normie brain can't comprehend.

In any case it seems like some of the money they take in is going to a good cause:

Edit: Apparently there is already some writing on this, interview with @vitoginnasio here:

Some minor exploration of why people are into this here:

This one's more about sneaker fetishists in general rather than just the destruction sub-fetish, they're not into Balenciagas:
