I absolutely hate documentarians who insist on forcing themselves into their films. The purpose of a documentary is to observe and document. It's why the Trapped documentary is so fucking good. You never see the people behind the camera they just let the people of Casper speak without stepping into to tell you what to think or feel. When you are making yourself the star of it it just feels egotistical like you said. Like "Okay I'm documenting this thing BUT WHAT ABOUT ME!" Reminds me of the 2000s pop documentaries like Supersizeme or Micheal Moore's later stuff which were basically just thinly veiled propaganda pieces.

yeah I get why this guy was in the documentary it was sort of about him, as in these were people he knew when he was young or whatever but the focus here is on this family and the cycle of horrors that repeated itself with this guy and had been happening 50 years with every generation of them, and this shit hole small town and how the poverty, drug abuse, sexual abuse and ignorance of the whole place causes it.

not "oh wow I'm so sad this abused kid I used to know became a monster, I left when I graduated and never looked back or thought to call him on a birthday, if I had tried what would have happened? probably nothing but this shakes me to the core"

shut up faggot the story is telling itself through your actual conversations with this train wreck of a family I couldn't care less what you thought about driving home. you're thinking what any normal person would "god damn this was tragic"

If you compare the speed at which Josh talks in the trapped documentary with a current video you can literally see the brain damage in real time. It's like two entirely different people.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=CvhchxHUCA0:130https://youtube.com/watch?v=pMYwDZxFZGAOh and because I know this might come up Josh is not talking faster because of ADHD stimulants in the trapped documentary. He immediately stopped taking all his prescribed medications when he moved out of Clint's. I believe he was on either Ritalin or Strattera but he dumped all his meds upon moving out.

I mean, he was also high off his ass on Jessica's vitamins in the second video. You can tell when he's on something when he starts talking in extra slow motion.
 
Jessica is listening to Cradle of Filth and drawing a Cobragram on her shower walls.

I love how all the other kids backgrounds are uniform, and the kid who's dad is the photographer gets the special treatment. Bad ass background AND a guitar!

The second hand embarrassment. Way to draw attention to your already chastised and bullied kid. "I know, I'll single him out in the yearbook with his cool guitar."

Like the time he went onto the bus and explained Josh's autism to all the kids.
 
While we’re on the subject of the Gothic King Cobra documentary, I feel like I have to recommend trapped’s other documentary Hampow93: My Brother, Which I Care For
It’s about these two fire truck horn autists slowly revealing their life story as they go about their day. I won’t spoil anything, but there is this huge revelation at the end of the documentary that hits like a freight train and completely recontextualizes them. While it has similar editing, cinematography, and mucic, it’s much more of a character study than Gothic King Cobra. It’s even more underrated than Gothic King Cobra and hasn’t even reached 100k views.

Hampow93 actually has some crossover with the Cobraverse. He’s gone back and forth with Josh and has actually talked to him before.
He’s still occasionally talks about him on his channel.

Jawshie really sent Jessica a ring even after she helped get him evicted. Wow...
Hopefully it was a cheap Chinese one from Temu or something. It's really sad seeing him turn into a total simpy doormat for NAL. These kinds of women want their partner to let them do whatever they want after all. Seen this shit play out way too many times.

I don't think it's THE one but it's the closest I can find, and I've been looking hard

Thank you so much for reminding of this documentary! I cannot recommended "My brother, Which I care for" enough. If you haven't watched it go watch it now. Just be forewarned it's much darker in tone then the kingcobrajfs one. Like you will be upset by the end and not laughing.

Gotta give the Powell bros mad respect for actually having standards for girls.

"Now, look all you kids, I just think you all need to know, my kid that you think is a retard? Well, he is. He's a mammoth sped. So I hope you don't bully him, or rate his posts autistic, or anything!"

any time i watch an old cobra video or watch the trapped documentary i am just amazed at how much worse he has gotten. but the trapped documentary has this weird unintentional foreshadowing about it especially now.

in the beginning he comes off as just a weird dude who has ended up making friends with various homeless people and other misfits but he was still making the best out of life that someone like him could. but as time has gone on its almost as if cobes was looking in a mirror at his future self.

without clints help i have no doubt he would have ended up just like the homeless people he used to hang out with. it would be interesting to see another trapped style documentary on cobes but i dont think he does enough anymore for there to be one.

If he weren't getting evicted, it would just be footage of him sitting in the chair watching YouTube while occasionally yelling at his phone or Doordash drivers and sorting through endless piles of random things the troles send him.

Yeah I don't really think you could do another trapped style documentary on him now. For as shitty as the YourFatSon documentary was it did give us a peak into what Josh gets up to on a daily basis and it seems like he mostly sits around screaming texts into his phone and watching YouTube videos.

The one on the left is an Ethiopian welo opal, they're inexpensive. It'll turn piss yellow after a while; they're hydrophane opals meaning they suck up moisture. You gotta try an acetone soak to save it. Avoid them.

Eta: the etsy listing is a simulated stone, which means it's stable and won't discolor. Shoulda gone with the fake tbh.
