Once the Steve Jobs of unboxing videos, now more like the Steve Wozniak of “Wait… who?”
Let’s unwrap the layers of this fallen tech messiah.
🛠️ First, The Golden Years:
2010–2019: The golden age of taping yourself opening boxes.
- 🎩 Lewis Hilsenteger, the smooth-talking tech whisperer, created a YouTube channel to open boxes. And the world said, “Yes, this is content.”
- 💥 2014’s “iPhone Bend Test” went viral. Overnight, Lewis wasn’t just reviewing gadgets — he was bending Apple’s reality.
- 📈 Views in the millions, sponsor deals fatter than Apple’s margins, and brand collabs flying faster than Teslas on Autopilot.
📉 Then Came The Plot Twist: Karma Unboxed
1. 🚩 The Pablo Phone Fiasco
“Escobar Inc sent me a phone!”
— Lewis, 2020, shortly before deleting the video.
- Promoted the Escobar Fold 2 — a rebranded Galaxy Fold from the literal drug cartel family.
- The twist? Buyers never got
- their phones. But hey, at least they got scammed stylishly.
- Lewis: “I didn’t know it was a scam.”
Internet: “Bro… it’s named after Escobar. ESC-O-BAR.”
2. 🧠 Viewbot Therapy
Millions of views, barely 500 comments. The math ain’t mathing.
- View count sky-high. Engagement: lower than your savings account interest rate.
- Fans noticed bots boosting videos faster than crypto rug pulls.
- Comments alleging view-botting? Magically disappeared. (Coincidence? Or AI-level moderation sorcery?)
3. 💧 Water From Air… and Trust From Lies?
“This device pulls drinking water from thin air.”
— Sponsored review, brought to you by the science of maybe.
- Showcased tech that sounds like Wakanda
