    Yeah! It's just so great how they're actually friends and WANT to spend time together so their reactions/interactions are more authentic. It's so much better than collabs that are between creators who don't really have a great dynamic and don't work as well together.

  • @TiredCapybara

    The whole situation with Rob and Corinne honestly made me step back and reevaluate how I interact with content creators online. I have never been mean to them because I'm not a jackass, but I never really interacted for the most part either. I was mostly a lurker. The stark reminder that you can lose creators you love or even look up to at any time is something that I had forgotten, and it's something I personally never plan to forget again. I've been more active and openly supportive of creators since because fuck, you never know what's going to happen and I just want them to know that I care if anything ever does. I've particularly stuck around in the Threadbanger community, but there are many others I've been vocal in. I guess that's why I'm leaving this comment too. I'm so sorry that everything was so stressful for you in 2019, I couldn't even imagine what it would be like to launch a project as ambitious as Holo Taco while fearing for the safety of your friend. Having to be busy with a project while knowing somebody you love is suffering is a uniquely terrible experience. It sucks, I really hope things are okay for all of you. I wish you all peace moving forward. I'd wish you a good rest of the year but shit already sucks, so here's to a good 2021. Much love.

    Sidney Victoria My initial reaction to seeing the video was the emotional equivalent of me being hit with a sack full of bricks. Seeing Rob and Corinne being driven to silence and tears because of their mutually traumatic experience was heartbreaking. However, I do admire them a lot for being open about the fact that they're getting therapy, that isn't something that's talked about openly much (especially with men) and I think that it will have a positive impact on their audience in my psych major opinion. They've been healing up and I'm glad to see that. I've already seen people (usually young, self conscious teens) in their comments section say things along the lines of "that they'd consider therapy because Rob and Corinne did therapy". I even saw one person on the Threadbanger subreddit say that they could relate to Rob and didn't feel so weird because they had the same rare disease. I think that their video explaining the situation and their content moving forward has had an impact not just in one way, but in multiple ways. Their openness with their recovery across social media, while they have no obligation to do so, has had a general positive impact on the community that they may or may not have realized. I'm sorry if that's a completely different tangent but that's just something I've kind of wanted to talk about for a while, I've noticed in the Threadbanger KZread comments and other communities.

    @@Cutiemaan Rob had a heart attack and was technically dead for 20 minutes before they resuscitated him. He was in the hospital for a long time and that level of medical trauma is emotionally devastating as well, so they both need therapy to deal with the aftermath and the life changes that it causes. It's nothing to do with their relationship but rather a traumatic event they're both dealing with from different sides.

    It was really crazy for us when that Threadbanger video dropped and it all seemed so surreal. Mostly because we see Rob as this reckless, cynical badass who hurts himself every video but never really gets hurt like that, you know? It was painful to see Corinne in that state, just watching her tell us about what happened. So I can’t even imagine how you all must have felt since you guys are close friends.

    You did a great job pulling through, Cristine. And you, too, Ben. You didn't owe us any explanation, but I appreciate you sharing so openly with us what you went through. And I hope that things are much better for you all now! I also just want to say I so appreciate you. Your videos got me through my last year and a half of college, after EIGHT YEARS OF PURSUING MY DEGREE. I love academia, but it wasn't always the easiest path for me to complete school due to financial and medical issues. Not only were your videos fucking entertaining and fun, but your consistent advocacy for education and sticking with school always reassured me that I wasn't alone in my genuine love and passion for it, and that I was on the right path. Thank you so much for being you and sharing yourself with us. We love you so much and wish more than anything else for your happiness!!!!

Honestly it was so horrible and I can definitely feel a tiny sliver of what Ben and Cristine and of course Corinne and Rob. I think I understand a tiny bit of what they’ve been through. I mean, it’s honestly so terrible having the fear of someone not making it or losing someone you love so dearly.

    In the outtakes video, when I saw Cristine starts breaking down in front of camera... I was confused and knew that something was up... Then i saw the comments saying that Cristine was overwhelmed by the love and support of the release of holo taco, although that doesn't seem like the full picture of what actually is happening behind the scenes, I still let it slide cause there wasn't anything I could've done. After watching this video... I just wanna say...Cristine... You are one strong women. You did great at pulling through such a tough time... I can't imagine how much stress you've gone through... Hope you're doing better now and that's all i have to say.. Thanks for reading this comment.

    It was truly a horrific time. I remember the shock of it all and just actually feeling this pain through the camera when they (Rob & Corinne) decided to talk about what had happened to him and the relief when he finally came on camera and you could see he was still in there. Yes he had difficulties but the trauma didn’t completely take him. We still had him and his wonderful sweary character with us and the relief was unreal. I just wanted to hug them both and I don’t even know them. I’m glad they you both there for support. It’s a shame it happened when it did for your launch as you weren’t able to enjoy it as you should’ve been able to but life just gets in the way like that. Like right now.

Since then, it just pops up randomly that I could have lost him. I hate that our culture doesn't allow for people to HAVE emotions other than positivity. You shouldn't have to tell people when things happen, I realize its a little different with someone who has a lot of fans, but, you have a life and emotions too and we should respect that, especially as fans. I remember wondering what was going on, but having ALSO been going threw my SO's stroke, I just accepted somethings are personal.

    Though my 2019 was fortunately not as bad as this, I understand having a lot going on. I was in my last semester of college and working 2 jobs before graduation, moved to a new city with people I'd never roomed with before, and started an internship 2 hours away from my city. Over the summer I would drive 2 hours and stay with my mom during the weekdays, then drive back and work on the weekends. I adopted a cat (because I thought I'd get an internship locally) and had to return him because I was just so stressed and overworked that I couldn't take care of him. I barely had enough money for rent, gas, and food. Finished the internship and started working full time at pizza delivery which I'd been doing the whole time, went through a really rough spot with work, and lost a friend out of nowhere (severed ties, not death). My paternal grandfather died the day after Christmas too which hit my family hard. The GOOD news is that the cat I have back got adopted by a wonderful person, I adopted my own cat who turned 1 today, we got a new GM so work became fun again, and I decided to pursue a different career than I got my BA in with the support of my family. 2019 was absolutely the fucked busiest year of my life and I don't know how I survived it some days. Luckily I had an awesome support group by my side. Right now I'm taking a LOA due to covid, but I have a job when it's safe to come back and I'm getting UI so I don't have to worry about finances. I'm scared of the future, but despite the world-wide panic I am coping and that's all I can really hope for.

    im so sorry for a difficult year that anyone had to face. especially you cris and you too ben. i had a hard 2019. i was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis and i couldnt look at myself in any positive way. i felt like a disgusting disgrace. i felt so gross and i hated myself. i lost all my confidence. i dont even like to eat anymore and when i do i want to throw it all up again. my diagnosis made me hate my body and me in general. i pushed through and im thriving now. i have good friends and good grades and i got a dog and im going to eighth grade and i made it through school. but sometimes its hard to cover up how you feel when something or someone is crushing you. and now that covid 19 is happening im trapped in the house, i feel claustrophobic and i have cabin fever. i guess what im trying to say is that if i can make it, you can too. you have to keep your head up. and some people cant. you can do it because i believe in all of you. no matter who you are or what youve done. no matter what bad things have happened in the past, just keep pushing. you got this. god is watching over all of us and hes protecting us all. hes letting us all know that it will be okay. its going to be okay. i promise. take care everyone and stay safe. oh and thanks cristine and ben, the videos have been keeping me pre-occupied. 💛💛💛💛

It comes out in their content as well and it make the videos a lot more fun and entertaining. I'm sorry 2019 was hard (and 2020) but you have been doing great. Same with Corrine, Rob, Ty, and Saf.

    From the videos at least, he seems like he’s okay. His voice went back to normal (he sounded high pitched for awhile because of the tube), and they’re not posting nearly as often but when they do, it’s similar content to before, if not a tad toned down. It was rough to watch in the beginning, Corinne was really open about how much she was worrying once he was back home. Obviously it was much rougher to experience for them.

    Hi Cristine, so you posted this a while ago so you probably won't see this, but your content holds a lot of impact. It's really cool to see people who are so real and relatable and smart when youtube typically doesn't show that. I really like watching your videos and hearing about the problems or life lessons you and Ben talk about while doing something with so little significance. Nails are surface level, but how you guys choose to interact isn't and I value that so much. Thank you for doing what you're doing. It really does make a difference.

    Oh I feel this it's no wonder it was such an exhausting year for you. My fiance survived similar circumstances and suffered sudden cardiac death for apparently no reason. Later it was found he had an incredibly rare tumor in his heart and dealing with the emotional toll from that has been the worst experience of my life. He is healthy and ok now but it's hard to go from worrying every single day he would drop dead again to the change in reality. I can remember watching Rob and Corinne's video about what happened and man it hit so close to home. I'm glad you all survived such a horrendous ordeal and that you all have each other to lean on. Situations like these that just break you really reveal where the love and support in your life is.

    When the incident occurred with Corinne and Rob and they finally made it public I was so hurt for them. It was shocking and horrible and awful. I can’t imagine what you both endured, knowing and caring deeply for your friends. You being transparent about it now only reinforces the power of vulnerability. Nothing but reverence + support for you all.

    Hey Cristine and Ben. The chances of you seeing this comment is really slim, but I wanted to tell you and we are so proud of you both. I too had a rough time last year, almost a month after my graduation, my father passed away, I had to quit my job since my mother had no one else to be with (my sister was studying in a different province). It was really tough, we were all in a really bad shape. Your videos kept me happy during those times (and they still keep me happy even now) and even learned from it. So take your time, you both deserve all the positivity right now.

    Watched this and then watched the video from threadbanger. Brought the same emotion that Cristine was feeling. I witnessed my mam have a heart attack in 2018, I live an hour a way from her now, and I’m still terrified that she’ll have another one. I always try and tell myself that “we can no longer look at the past, and just hope for a better present and future”. It’s still okay to have a little cry to yourself, I do it. Every now and then. 😌

What would I want to have changed or done first?" I had always wanted to take my cat on a walk, or have her explore a cat tree but I never got around to it until it was too late. I hope you're doing better now, you have our support!

    Having friends going through something is a special burden. There are no real labels or explanations, it might not be your place to share, you might just feel entirely powerless or like you are sitting in the second row while being very emotional. It's not a partner or a parent, it's a friend and you might not know your place for this. But I promise, your friends will appreciate that you were there for them. Maybe it will take a while or they won't be able to articulate it at all, but they know you care.

    I had to face a terrible loss in my family in May while I was 16, but even if I was devastated I didn't want to skip school and I wanted still to study and have great grades (May was when various tests and oral tests would occur before finally relaxing for the summer break), I didn't want to talk about my suffering with my teachers or schoolmates because I had bullying problems and I didn't want to show I was 'bleeding' in front of cruel people, and around that time I also finally managed to have my novel published (I've been a writer since primary school so it was a dream come true) and I was sent a bunch of books to sell on my own... so I was super happy but at the same time a little part of me was angry at my happiness like 'how dare you to be happy, when you jost lost somebody you love?' It's pretty messed up, emotions are like this.

It was heartbreaking to recive all the love i was getting, and i began to think that celebrating my bd was like celebrating her death. I also did not let anyone know when she died, becauso i do not want them to think that my bd is about her. This actually happend like days ago, but i kind of know now that it is okay to share the date, and i think that is other thing that i have in common with her.
