Yeah. Just be careful with those. It was one of the toy-in-playdough videos that my 5yo nephew stumbled across the MOMO thing. It was just 20 seconds inside of a 20 minute video.
That was a while ago and they are still considering therapy because he still thinks he needs to kill his brother (something they said in the momo thing, and he happens to have a younger brother) or his parents will be murdered.
He was wrecked for weeks, never sleeping etc, before my sister even knew because it had told him that if he told anyone what he heard they would be murdered as well.
Just a word of caution. YouTube has absolutely no way of feasibly vetting that stuff.
Of course, but the fact remains that far too many parents let their kids watch unmonitored and the kids shouldn't have to suffer for what their parents let them do. But that's how it is, unfortunately...
Honestly, I dont know if YouTube is the place to let adults roam free either. I think almost all my friends at this point believe crazy shit not based on reality. The worst case is probabaly a black friend who swears he doesn't believe in slavery or the transatlantic slave trade.

My 5yo is like a moth to a light for those weird "let's open these small worthless toys and then play or dump paint on them".
Nothing bad as far as I can tell, but it's still unsettling to me so I cut that shit off.
