This is reminding me, a few days ago I read an article telling the story of this guy who was trapped in a cave in Kentucky after rubble fell on his leg. This is the story: https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/tragedy-at-sand-cave.htm of Floyd Collins, though the article I read earlier was more engaging. Oh, may have been this article: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/the-1925-cave-rescue-that-captivated-the-nation/ar-AA1kZ7Es
YouTuber HBomberguy just released a video on plagiarism. Another well known YouTube video about that caving incident was wholesale stolen from an article about it (but I don't think it was either of your articles.) Must be the "vaguely related to caving" time of the year!
Not surprising. I've been watching various relationship and psychology videos on YouTube and ran into a few which seem really sketchy... they're very well written in English, all the imagery is people in Malaysia or something, it seems to be read by an AI, and there's no writing attribution. Kind of suspicious.
The plagiarism case hbomberguy exposed is about a good production channel with millions of subscribers in collab with other larges channels
Hey, you can name and shame, it's alright. The video was the wildly popular Man In Cave, by the wildly popular youtuber Internet Historian. He wholesale ripped off Lucas Reilly's Mental Floss article about the incident, pretended the video was taken down because of youtube's famously awful copyright strike system, and then re-uploaded a hastily edited version that less obviously (but still obviously) rips off Reilly's article.
