brian_636 rides to where Bloodhound Q50 was killed, and a crowd follows
Thirteen hours after it went up, the Chicago night vlog was on pace for nearly sixteen times the channel's usual first day, and its comments are mostly about the city itself.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 283,593 views a day, 16 times a normal first day on this channel (18,109).
The Bloodhound Betrayal....
"The Bloodhound Betrayal...." had been online for thirteen hours when it passed 200,000 views. A new brian_636 video usually finds about 18,000 viewers in its whole first day.
The video is a night ride. Brian takes his BMW S1000RR through Chicago to the place where the rapper Bloodhound Q50 was shot and killed. Along the way he crosses Downtown, the South Side and the East Side, and the wheelies and stoppies his channel is known for come with him. The title promises a betrayal, and the video tells it as part of the city's story rather than as a stunt reel.
The last few days have been all Chicago on the channel: a no-hands wheelie past a relaxed police officer, a Kawasaki ZX-6R on Madison Street, street food vendors in Bronzeville. None of those started anywhere near this fast. HoodEats episode 102, filmed in Charlotte and posted a week earlier, has had more time to build, and this new ride is already closing on its total.
The comment section reads like a geography lesson. Several viewers say they are learning more about Chicago from these rides than they ever did elsewhere. Others point out how short the trip is from downtown museums to the neighborhoods where police tape goes up. One viewer stops at a black cat that crosses the frame late in the ride. The most-liked request has nothing to do with the night at all: a tow company owner and many others want Brian to make a video about towing wars.
In his comments, regulars keep saying the night vlogs are their favorite part of the channel.
