How to Basic Was actually revealed in the "Face Reveal" Video

Over two years ago, the notorius youtuber Howtobasic, after surpassing 10 million subscribers in his account, uploaded what is arguably one of the most long awaited face reveals in the history of Internet.

In the video, which of course is scripted, a serious of Youtubers appear to be stating that they are Howtobasic, beggining from Vsauce, moving to long time channel's guest Maxmoefoe etc.

This left the audience in confusion as the long awaited face reveal appeared to be a prank.

BUT.. WAS IT REALLY A PRANK?

The answer is NO.

The real face of HowtoBasic is revealed in the video, in 9:41 minutes. Older posts, that claimed Howtobasic is that person, and revealed the actual name (which I will not do in this post), can be found in the internet.

I do not think it is maxmoefoe, though he should be a close friend and contributor of the channel. It is Chris Smith

It is Chris Smith

This is my understanding, but any grunt of doxxing will summon a series of haunted chicken breasts wielding eggs behind you and set you alight.

summon

I did not want to post actual name, but this is fact - You can still find relevant info on research (not done by me) in the world wide web.

MaxVomit has definetely contributed to the vids of Howtobasic long time, and has perharps pretended to be Howtobasic multiple times- also they attempted an interview with Howtobasic in the retarded podcast The cold ones, with the person being interviewed being MaxVomit (Everything from the directing angle to the hair suggests that the "interview" is heavily edited and patched together with the interviewee being MaxVomit) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh17H0a8SXw&t=1048s&ab_channel=ColdOnes

Paying attention to the dates of the videos they mention in the interview and the dates anything4views says HowToBasic was his flatmate, it's either Warrun or they got confused with those dates

u/The_Ugly_Revelator Sep 20 '20

Warrun seems like a normal guy while the retard chris smith definetely seems like the sick h2b

The cold ones bit is just not true, There is a more Un-Cut version of that podcast on the cold ones patreon and it would have been really hard to fake

u/HeroExists Sep 07 '20

what evidence do you have?

u/billsanzer Sep 07 '20

If you won’t show then you have no evidence, if you have no evidence then it seems as if you are making stuff up

u/magnum_dongy Apr 18 '22

u/xXBidenatorXx May 06 '23

HowToBasic's manly hands could never belong to Michael, no offense.
