Dad uses 1911 on laptop to punish child!

If your videos have enough hits, you may qualify to be a Youtube Partner and Youtube will share the ad revenue with you. I highly doubt this one video is making him any money directly off of YT. He may be making a few buck by doing interviews, but there's no way he's raking it in.

How do you make money on YouTube?

If you get lot of hits on your videos and large numbers of subscribers you can get advertisers that relate to your video or that fit your demographics. Really just like tv. And what scutter said too.

This was really funny, however one of the CNN (Communist News Network) news shows decided to air it on tv and one of the anchors said well just look at the way he is dressed he doesn't know any better that is how they live down there. I was a little taken back by this statement, and the reporter realized at that moment what she just said and apologized for her remark.

Yeah but that's ok because everybody knows that all southerners and gun owners are just stupid inbred hicks that dress like that guy.

Stupid. AND horrible parenting.

And he talked way too long.

overall... a "meh".

 

[TruxLupus]

Great parent. My dad would have done the same if I had pulled a stunt like that. And you can bet I would have learned my lesson pretty dang quick.

Reading what she wrote is almost unbelievable. I wasn't the best son by my goodness, that's...I mean, what a pretentious little drama queen. There's a difference between venting anger and stuck-up entitlement and she had a lot of the latter bleeding through. Hopefully this knocked her down a few pegs and gave her a good dose of reality.

I have a friend that used to make Political Spoof videos just for YouTube, to make money. Once you hit 1000 views, they share with you. The price used to be $2.50 per 1000 views. This guy is up to 25 million views now. If they still share like they did 5-6 years ago, this 25 million views would be a check for $62,500.00.

If that's his best grouping at point blank range then he needs to work on sight alignment, sight picture!

Unless he was trying to hit it all over, then good shooting, carry on...

Qualifications & FAQ

To become a YouTube Partner, you must meet these minimum requirements:

• You create original videos suitable for online streaming.
• You own or have express permission to use and monetize all audio and video content that you upload—no exceptions.
• You regularly upload videos that are viewed by thousands of YouTube users, or you publish popular or commercially successful videos in other ways (such as DVDs sold online).

One popular video generally won't qualify you, according to some of the things I've read, and supported by Youtube's own policy FAQ. It's POSSIBLE that he's being paid, but I wouldn't assume he was.

He is luck that gun fired the whole mag without a malfunction.

 

[Owens47235]

Thats a great job on his part. Maybe he could have shown a little more safety by placing the laptop further away but hey, you cant blame the guy.

 

[gum507]

WOW, SUPER DAD. We need more.

Brilliant insights here:

about that youtube clip with laptop shooter dad. | the munchkin wrangler.

 

[BigBlock502]

LOL, that was awesome. I was hoping he was going to flip over the laptop so we could see the back. Or maybe open it up and watch all the keys and pieces fall out. Still a great video. And at 30 million views he's probably made his $130 back that he spent on the software and much more than that.

Good points. While the daughter deserves correction, maybe not the best course of action for Dad all things considered. (Not that we all wouldn't be tempted...)

Yeah, why not just take it away and donate it to some needy kid (so the feds won't rob us to buy a laptop for said needy kid).

He seemed a bit unsure of the round count though.

"I've got six....no, eight!"

 

[gunman41mag]

She has to find a job now, she owes her DAD $130 for soft-ware & $8 for 45 HOLLOW-POINT

 

[croy]

a friend of mine does something similiar, he doesnt shoot it, but if a kid misbehaves and have been why not to do it that toy gets broke. When he is given the opportunity to get another toy he doesnt misbehave and gets to keep the toy

 

[Salty Possum]

Saw this video on YT when it came out. I personally agree with the dad too many kids causing trouble today cause the parents are too soft on em. I like his choice of firearms for dealing the "death blow" to the laptop, but personally I would have set it up 150+ yards down range and used it for Mosin practice but that's just me

 

[Jrhemming]

Lmao that was awesome if I ever did something like that I would have been begging my dad to just shoot the laptop
