This guy is a magician. He knows the architecture of the mind and plays it as he wills, planting the point straight into it just like the mind was built to accept it. It was just the ending punchline for me. It was a stunner.

This guy presents to hundreds and thousands of people in stage but he blushes and gets shy when Pewdiepie complements him. That's really mindblowing and wholesome, just shows how human he still is even he's good at public speaking and such
