Youtube Channel Recs
One of my favourite things on YouTube is people who make documentary style videos! Here are some channels that creat that sort of content! Binge watching is highly recommended ;)
WARNING: Some of these channels may contain and talk about content of a dark, adult or triggering nature! Any channels that I believe may have such content will have a ⚠️ emoji next to them and I advise to continue with caution.
Lost Media, Internet Mysteries & ARGs/Webseries
Whang! - ⚠️ Mostly videos about curious internet occurrences, lost media, and other internet mysteries.BlameItOnJorge - ⚠️ Mostly focused on Lost Media and the search for them.

The Internet Investigator - ⚠️ A channel that investigates strange happenings, especially ones that have happened over the internet. Please be aware, the stories she covers tend to be darker than a lot of the other channels on this list, but if you think you can handle it, her videos are very informative.

Real Life Incidents
Fasinating Horror - ⚠️ Documentary style videos about major disasters. Sticks to the facts, doesn't dramatise the events and talks about how the disasters have changed safety regulations.Qxir - ⚠️ This channel has two main series. "Tales From The Bottle" is a comedic series talking about the weirder moments of history (please watch the video about the 1904 Summer Olympics Men's Marathon, it is literally one of the funniest things I've ever heard and is now my favourite weird history thing). "Last Moments" is a more serious series focusing on the last moments of people before they died.
Brick Immortar - ⚠️ Videos about disasters, mostly focused on buildings collapsing and why they failed.
Media Essays & Analysis
Misc.
(Mostly channels I'm not sure which category to put them in right now.)How To Cook That - While this channel is mostly about recipes, Ann Reardon, the channels owner, also does a series where she debunks fake and potentially dangerous "life hacks" and I highly suggest you watch them and save you or someone you know a potentially bad situation :)
