Fellow reviewer once alongside the famous Nostalgia Critic and fairly major YouTube star Justin "JewWario" Carmical is said to have committed suicide last Thursday. Details as I heard them here ->

http://spoonyexperiment.com/channel-awesome/in-memory-of-justin-jewwario-carmical-1971-2014/

I can't really say I was a fan, as I hardly was a spectator of any of his "You Can Play This" review vids, but I knew that he was once affiliated with That Guy With The Glasses and was also quite popular on YT. From what I have seen of him, mainly his performance as David Bowie's character from The Labyrinth in the LARP'ing satire that is The Suburban Knights (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6f_2wQRD74) and his partaking in a 90 minute-long that The Spoony One made about Twilight: Breaking Dawn , JewWario seemed like a really easy-going and generally happy guy. Which of course as always is shocking when you learn that such a person as you view him/her has taken their own life.

As it is, though I did not go there myself, it is said that his wife Jenny reported a few details about his suicide on Facebook, saying that he had locked himself in the bathroom and she had stayed just on the other side of the door talking to him. And eventually he had shot himself. She writes that she at least knew that he had many loving fans and always seemed downright "giddy" at their positive responses to his work, so I guess that's at least one thing. Well, in any event, this is distressing news especially to his fans, and as always should reinforce in our personal beliefs that suicide is never something to be made light of. May the good man rest in peace. *SK holds up sword in knightly salute*

That is sad. I watched a few of his videos and could definitely see what he had a good fan base.

I saw the news. That completely shocked and saddened me. I didn't really look at his stuff, but it sucks that he committed suicide.
