Ratings (Love him!)

Olan has some very popular videos and people really do seem to like watching him. One of his videos, Ghost in the stalls, has over 3 million views. There are endless pages of comments and people say how much they love him and how much they laugh because of him. One person went as far as saying "I just peed a little bit!" I personally love Olan's videos. I think that he is very funny. His stories don't even have to be that great but the way he presents them makes a world of difference! One of the only comments I have found that says anything about the way he does his videos says that they don't like the way he keeps looking to the left. He replies to this person with a very adult and informing comment saying "It's pretty awkward staring straight into the lens of a camera. In film they tell you never to stare into the lens of a camera, it's a habit to want to look away. Not to mention there is a weeping angel in my room." I think it is very professional the way he handles this. I know that there are people who do not like Olan or the way he presents himself. One of the women I work with does not like him because she says he's just "another spaz telling a story." There are a lot of older people who think this. I think that the people that follow Olan the most are younger. He does say "poop" a lot and makes childish jokes but to younger generations that is funny. One reason I think his ratings are also high is because some people will watch his videos multiple times (guilty). There are a lot of people that comment and say "IT'S MONDAY!!!(Is it bad that every Monday I come and watch this?)." Even one of his lower viewed videos still has over 3,000 views. In his video Midnight Claw, Olan talks about how a bat got its nail hooked into his sock because his socks were to long in the front. He has about 570,000 views on this video! One of the things people comment about a lot is that his sock situation is relatable. Thats another reason I think people like his videos so much. He talks about everyday things that happen, which if I were telling the story it may just seem like another story, but when Olan tells it he adds a lot of character and humor which makes it better and more likable. He also promotes his videos with clothing that he makes which helps his ratings. He can make a shirt that says "It's a Monday!" and when someone sees their friend wear this shirt every Monday they're like "WHAT THE POOP!"  Some of the money he makes from the clothing line goes to help needy kids. When people hear this it makes them want to buy more of his clothes and watch more of his videos to find out why he has a bear that is holding an axe with arrows shoved into his pelt and has a bag full of arrows but no bow, on a shirt.  I think overall Olan does a lot to make people happy and its the little things that will take you places in life. I personally think that Olan is fantastic and that he should keep doing what he's doing!
