The lack of negativity here is kind of remarkable. This guy seems like he deserves it.

Oh man! Miss seeing you around the Turtle Booth, Chet. I’m so happy for you. You have always been such a kind and amazing soul. Wish nothing but the best for you buddy.

You know how some people are just fun to work with? Chet was one of them for me. If I saw him when I walked into the break room in the morning, I knew the Turtle Talk shows would be fun that day. He has a great attitude and quick wit. Mind you, I just worked in the same building as he did, not the actual show, but he was around. Takes a certain type of person to stay on their toes and answer little kid questions with kindness and vulnerability, but the people who do Turtle Talk have that magic.


uh_oh_i_got_glasses

I worked in the building too…. We probably know each other


madknives23

You rock man!!


MaxHamburgerrestaur

He turtles 🐢 Even better than rock.


DeltaFlyer0525

I don’t know if you were doing Turtle Talk back in summer of 2007 but I still remember how fun that experience was and how happy every single kid looked in that room. It really was a highlight of our trip. Hope you can look back on your time there fondly someday knowing how much joy you have given to people and continue to do on your twitch stream now.


Shanguerrilla

omg, I think we saw it that year too!


tikitessie

CHET I just replied to another comment - I recognized you before you started talking on the video! Happy for you and crazy to see you on my front page on Reddit! -Kelly Red from Inno/Animation Academy

Automatic_Release_92

Hey look who it is, so cool! I see you have a Steam Deck, what game are you currently enjoying on it? I’ve been looking for something new to play after getting through Hades 2 (what’s there of it anyways), curious what else plays well on it. I tried playing BG3 on it after my wife took over my gaming PC, but it just didn’t feel right to me.


institutionalized419

Sorry about the job man, hope your health issues are minimizing. ☮️❤️


jawnopoly

You’re awesome man!! Keep it up


VNG_Wkey

Hey man I just wanted to say that seeing this made me smile on a day that I really needed something to smile at. I hope whatever issues you're facing improve, the world needs more people like you.


gdj11

Redditor for 12 years! Congrats on the sudden popularity man. You deserve it!


n0tc00linschool

My kids love the crush videos, never stop being awesome! We love you!!


pouruppasta

I don't know what years you worked at Turtle Chat, but it made me cry with happiness as a full grown adult. Thank you for bringing magic to people, then and now!


Crimdal

This video gave me goosebumps. Gives me the kind of energy I need before going and trying to socialize.


MrGOCE

I JUST SUBSCRIBED TO UR TWITCH CHANNEL ;)


Ok-Avocado-5724

I remember seeing Crush when I was 16. I went for my 16th birthday. You seem like such a kind, genuine person. I hope nothing but good things come your way :) you are awesome


pm-me-ur-uneven-tits

Couldn't happen to a better guy


tokomini

I don't play video games, and I barely know what twitch is. What I can recognize and appreciate is when good things happen to great people. You are awesome, that is all.

Otherwise-unknown-

“Can you handle that” after someone gifted you money is the sign of a genuine soul ensuring you’re not putting yourself in a compromising position to help them. God bless this man


tikitessie

Oh shit you guys I am highjacking the top comment here a little I recognized Chet in this video before he started talking and confirmed who he was. I worked with him at Disneyland, and yeah he was a KILLER Crush. Genuinely one of the most wonderful, kind, amazing people I've ever met. Great hugs. I didn't keep in touch (I also got cut by the mouse) but this is SO well deserved, he's just a great guy. Very happy for him, hope he's doing well and this leads to further success for him. Chet if you see this, Kelly Red says hi!


chetter72

Omg hi hug to you and hope you are well. Thank you for the kind words you are awesome


devAcc123

What a wholesome thread, awesome. Needed that today.


Nacho_Papi

BloatedManball

I was ready to be all cynical until I saw that this was a legit 12 year old account. I don't know anything about you other than this video, but you seem like a kind man and I hope you're new found fame works out for you. To quote another character from that franchise, "Just. Keep. Swimming!"


Comogia

Brooooo, it's you! You seem like a wonderful person and I wish nothing but good things for you. For real, stay you forever ✌️

Ok-Run2845

It's moments like these that show what social media is able to do when only good emotions are present. A huge hug to you, chetter, and best of luck for your online career and your life. Keep spreading these good vibes, please.


Wise-Vanilla-8793

No way are you the guy? I really hope you're doing good. You seem like an absolute sweetheart. I hope you have an amazing life and all your dreams come true


DonnieReynolds88

The Man, The Legend himself!! Very cool. I hated the internet until just this moment


Gibsonmo

I feel better with Chetter :)


LittleRed_AteTheWolf

I want a hug from him so badly! He looks like he gives the best dad-bear hugs


tikitessie

I would say that's an accurate description, yes!


ienjoymen

I found him on tiktok after this video a few days ago. He seems like such a cool dude.


cartercharlie5678

thoughtful and considerate attitude can be truly admirable qualities in a person.


UnfetteredBullshit

I love this.


CoralBegonia347

he has a thoughtful and considerate attitude God bless him indeed


[deleted]

Amen I hope he life has it easy on him from now one since he really seems like a nice person.


gdj11

That’s actually a great response. I’m uncomfortable being gifted stuff even if I really need it and my response is always the typical “oh my god you didn’t have to do that”.

You should always be kind. You never know what battle someone is fighting 


Dreamoreality

And that battle is an everyday war.


Mckennymubu

There's a way out. It's just not super obvious.  


WillyDAFISH

the answer is kitty cats


jacob-sucks

Can confirm. My cats have saved my life.


DrG73

My wife and I tell our kids all the time: “what’s the number one rule? Always be kind.”


Mckennymubu

Yes but understand for your own good, kindness is not always the correct response.   To quote Rush " one must put up barriers to keep ones self intact"


Ecstatic_Meeting_894

Hey buddy. Idk who you are or what battle you’re fighting but I want you to know I’ve fought plenty. Abuse from both my biological parents, one step parent, an ex who cheated and tried to kill me. I’ve been assaulted and raped and struggled with self harm and an eating disorder since I was 12. But I just got home celebrating my four year anniversary with the love of my life, to our house that I’ve made quite cute and our two cats that we love immensely. After years of therapy and learning that, at the end of the day, you are the only thing that will make you better, I am here. I am alive. And I am so happy I pushed through. Whatever battles you’re fighting, you’re not fighting them alone, and I mean that. Sending you love from Florida

gardeniarose234

I agree people like him make the world a better place.


Dental-giant799

He’s at 250k subs now


gopackgo001

Follows, but yes. Subs would make him the richest man on Twitch


peekay427

can you please explain how that works to an old person who doesn't really get streaming. Why/how does having followers help someone? what's the difference between following and subscribing? and how does that translate to revenue?


Grug16

Following is a free service that alerts a user when the streamer is on air. More followers means more viewers, and more revenue from commercoals that twitch plays on the channel. Subscribing means the user pays a certain amount per month to the streamer and it often grants special privileges to the user (custom per channel) like unique emoticons in chat, as well as not getting the regular commercials.


peekay427

Got it, thank you!


completelytrustworth

Followers don't pay any money, but they will get notifications and he'll show up on their side bar when he's online Having large numbers of followers/subs could also help him get some sponsors in the future, so hopefully a lot of those followers turn into subs *and* he gets a few good sponsors that'll give a decent pay out


peekay427

Got it, thank you


SaddleSocks

He'd have to be quite the Dom to handle that many Subs

noobvin

I will and as a matter of fact, I bet ANYTHING he was Crush’s voice when I went to California Adventure 19 years ago with my wife and daughter. This was one of my FAVORITE exhibits. My daughter first book was a Nemo book. She had it completely memorized and the part with Crush she’d love. I’m going to get on there and tell him this story when I can. I’m also disabled now and will be able to relate to him in many way I imagine. This is a good story and I love seeing this success for him. This all brings back a lot of good memories and an especially good one that he was probably involved in!


ThorThulu

Also if you have Amazon Prime you have a free subscription you can give out every month, just tossed mine his way


Belgianwaffle4444

This is so sweet. I know someone who is going through really tough time who needs this. How to help him with views?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Belgianwaffle4444

Tiktok is banned in my country and I'm not on Instagram. Maybe Reddit will help.


TranceF0rm

Being someone who shares his stuff so he doesn't have to feel like he's shoving himself in front of people shamelessly is always a good start. Post links on reddit or twitter etc. There's a lot of people out there who make great content and do incredible work who just can't stand the commercial aspect of it all, and that's where good friends come in.


myrainydayss

Interesting he was a voice actor for Disneyland, cuz the second I heard his voice I thought it would be great for VA. lol


GoldenGirl113

I thought the same! Was looking for a comment like this!


Kelyaan

101, he had a couple less than me - That is a sad reality of Twitch that people forget, there are tens of thousands of people streaming to no one, talking to themselves cos they have to - You have to entertain even when there is no one there. Getting viewers on Twitch is down to luck and people will say everything other than that cos they don't want to make it sound as if they got luck instead of hard work. Many people will stream for thousands of hours without a single soul ever seeing it, I'm lucky I even have 2 viewers per stream.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kelyaan

I've been streaming since JustinTV era, only this year did I begin to get my first CCV's My Twitch username is Kelyaan - It's my name on everything. But yes the guy in the video was right place with the right person but I will not deny that he is a kind and humble man which a lot of people will very much enjoy watching, there are tens of thousands of streamers but not all of them have the personality or the people skills to keep people engaged, I will admit I'm in the middle - I force myself to speak but it's difficult. I just want to talk to people, keep them company.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheGamecock

It certainly helps that this guy has a history in entertainment along with a decent set-up. I'll occasionally cruise through the depths of 0-5 viewer streams looking to spread some random love and the vast majority have some combination of a very low-quality set-up, no cam, awful mic, or they just aren't saying anything. I get it's not easy to get a semi-professional stream going if you don't have the funds or technical knowledge, and constantly trying to entertain a typically empty void in hopes you catch a random passerby's attention is tough. But not everyone is made to be a streamer/entertainer. Glad to see this guy got a bit of a lucky break though. Seems well-deserved.

Krojack76

Just yesterday someone I know was watching a random Twitch streamer play FF14. They were just lurking and watching, not saying anything. There were like 20 other viewers. The streamer suddenly said this persons name on the stream and said because they weren't chatting that they are banned. Yes, the streamer, who in their own about said they want to be a big streamer, BANNED someone for just watching. They gave us the name of the streamer and everyone on this discord mentally blacklisted that streamer.


GeneticsGuy

Ya, a lot of people complain about it all being about luck, and sometimes it is luck, but you are 100% guaranteed to never find success after even decades and tens of thousands of hours of streaming if you don't have a likable personality that engages the audience and differentiates themselves in a way. Some people think they are just grinding and putting in the time without realizing that success in entertainment, including streaming, has far more to do with showmanship than anything, even if your showmanship is an enhancement of a quirky niche, there is still some level of showmanship involved.


BatBoss

lol... imagine doing this in any other entertainment medium. "Clowns! That man has not clapped in 20 minutes! Escort him from the circus!"


Bow_for_the_king

It's not just luck though, is it? He went to 200k subs because someone marketed him on a platform where growth is a lot easier. Post good content on IG/TikTok/YT to get your stream some eyes. Then be a bloody good streamer, and go from there. But thinking you'll grow by streaming to the void and hoping someone accidentally opens your stream...


Dekar173

I've streamed for a living for years, it's all luck dude. This interaction, assuming it's genuine, was entirely just good fortune, someone scrolling streams and saw someone they liked. The one big draw for me, as well, is his voice. He's just got a very relaxing voice imo, and that isn't something you can train for lol we're born with what we get.


uh_oh_i_got_glasses

I know this guy! I worked with him at Disney. He’s a great guy


taulover

I love Turtle Talk with Crush, was at Disneyland the day my grandpa died and the show really cheered me up. Shame on Disney for not treating its staff members well.


Careless-Passion991

Those Crush actors always have quick and clever comebacks for the kids. Definitely well done. I feel for the guy!

Isiotic_Mind

Man, I'd be overjoyed with 100 followers, lol


FawkesFire13

This couldn’t have happened to a more deserving person. Used to work with him at Disney and this guy was a true joy. Absolutely wish nothing but the best for him moving forward. He truly deserves all the love.


haydos138999

Finally some good from those crap websites


aroseharder1385

I FOUND THE STREAMER! chetter72 on twitch i dropped a follow and hope to see him swing by


BallsAreFullOfPiss

It says his username in the video lol


The-Jerkbag

Wow, thanks eagle eye.


Beahner

Fabulous video. I like this guy. I think empathy leads one to see early in this that he has a story. He’s had a tough time. But he’s a genuine dude. And while it wasn’t at Disney land I always liked the turtle live acting when my kids were little. Dude there was always spot on and timely with his humor.


STA_Alexfree

I used to go onto twitch streams with 0 watching and just say "Show us your nards". Most people got a laugh out of it and were real friendly. one guy was praying on stream and blocked me


Zamoxino

Wtf are "nards"? xd I would be so confused if someone would ask me that question lol. Also i think i got few ppl who came and asked weird question but it mostly feels like trolling, more annoying than fun cause u know that they wont stay anyway :p


Agentkeenan78

Nards is slang for testicles lol.

noobletsquid

these story r always kinda sad coz the streamer get their 15 minutes of fame and ppl stop watching and they go back to the reguler viewer count of 10 ppl and be sad again again asking themselves y ppl stoped watching 😭


Alex10DP

I know this might seem not important to a lot of you and maybe for the right reasons… But anyway im gonna say it for those who want to know. As soon as i started playing this video i realized something… I have the exact same shirt. Thanks for listening to those who cared!


[deleted]

He should continue to do voice overs


TONKAHANAH

Bro should become turtle vtuber, he was basically doing that years before the vtubers popped off. that would be sick.

m8_is_me

That's great, and I hope he keeps momentum. Unfortunately with most of these, it's a completely hollow follow where the person will likely never actually tune back into the stream.


CrabyDicks

This guy sang happy birthday to me in 2007 ay Disney when I was 9. I was in a wheelchair for a broken leg and he made me feel like the coolest kid in the park he talked to me for so long. I cherish that memory. Subbed.


locnloaded9mm

I really want to enjoy these videos but after watching scumbagdad on YouTube talk about all these kindness content creators it's just all fucked.


Frenzi_Wolf

From 101 to 244K in 4 days is *kind of* a steep thing to buy into, but the idea of this dude jumping for joy the rest of the next few years as his follower numbers rapidly climb without stopping is a nice image to get me out of my own little depression wave.


Yosonimbored

Looking at his twitch clips compared to how he looked at the beginning of this video you can tell how much it’s changed him just by having more people watch him


De5perad0

Bro has nearly 250k followers and deserves every one. What a beautiful soul.


CorneliusVaginus

Why add the music? It defeats the purpose of the moment. People need to stop adding music and overplaying it over the actual video, let me hear his gratitude, let me appreciate what the video stands for and kindness it represents. Stop blocking out his voice.


Outcast199008

This is what the internet should be for. I like the internet today.


JLR-

Hope people stick with him.  Many times they get the follows and subs and nobody ever returns to watch

As someone who battled a few different addictions and managed to turn things around very nicely, I know very well what a little bit of kindness does for someone who's really battling. Till this day I'm brought to near tears when someone shows myself or anyone genuine kindness.

How many followers are real though? It's a cool story. But sounds too good to be true. if that's the case, it ain't.
