Daniel Larson: Difference between revisions

In 2020, Daniel gained a sizeable following due to his strange content and unusual appearence. Upon discovery, people began to [[Trolls|troll]] him for amusement, due to him resembling controversial internet personalities such as [https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Christian_Weston_Chandler Chris Chan], or [[wikipedia:Terry_A._Davis|Terry A. Davis.]] In an attempt to get Daniel to notice them, individuals often pretended to be teams of [[Management|managers]] who stroked his delusions of fame and fortune. Daniel fell for this hook, line, and sinker. This would eventually turn Daniel from a well-meaning, albeit odd person, into someone with genuine problems, who regularly broke the law and posted deranged content.   

In short, Daniel's story is one that is not fated to have a happy ending, leaving his life as a tale of bad parenting, the effects of untreated mental illness, guilibility, narcissism, sexual deviancy, criminal activity, and, most importantly, a tale of the world watching a man deteriorate through each and every day.  

One would beleive Daniel to be a normal child, but even at a young age, he was noted as being extremely violent with his mother, as well as having fantasies. This would be a sign of things to come. {{collapse top|result=More of Young Daniel}}

Daniel's time in Sobesky is mostly unknown, as Daniel seemingly hasn't talked much about his high-school years, opposed to his time in the Tennyson Center which he seems to hold in higher regard. Though, according to [[FlyingFoxandwings AMA|one of his high-school classmates]], Daniel, even in highschool, had an escort, which implies that Daniel had violent tendencies even then.   

It is unknown what Daniel did for most of high school career, but, he is known to have acted as one of the mascots for his schools softball team. Daniel was said to have been obsessed with [[Music Career|singing]] even during highschool, however, there were no mentions of [[Grace VanderWaal]]. Despite this, sometime when Daniel was around 17, him and his grandmother were watching ''[[wikipedia:America's_Got_Talent|America's Got Talent]].'' It is said that when Daniel was watching it with her, his grandmother remarked that he may sing with her on stage some day. Despite the questionable validity of this statement, Daniel convinced himself (even though at the time [[Pedophilia|Grace was 12, and he was closer and closer to becoming 18]]) that he was apart of Grace's life. This was the birth of his obsession with her.  

Daniel made the @daniellarsonfans account in early 2020, which quickly gained a large following due to Daniel's unorthadox appearence, and the strange nature of his videos videos. For example, Daniel would make videos of him doing [[Jumping Jacks|jumping jacks]] while speaking about various topics, most notably George Floyd. While not the first video ever uploaded, Daniel's first video to gain attention was called "Good night everyone," in which he stiltedly wished his fans good luck while his phone buzzes in the background. This was the type of content that Daniel would post in the early days of his account, continuing for a few months.

It was revealed that the shelter Daniel adopted her from hadn't conducted a background check on Daniel, leading to them being horrified as his online history and subsequent harassment faced by the shelter came to light. Despite calls to return Music to the shelter and worries about her well-being, Daniel continued posting videos with her. The community intensified efforts, leading the Longmont Humane Society to take steps to remove Music from Daniel's care, as well as [[List of places that have banned Daniel|permanantly banning from the premises]]. Concerns for the dog's safety grew due to Daniel's documented [[Incidents|erratic and violent behavior]], [[Daniel and the Law|evading authorities]], and distressing videos of Music wherein she was whimpering. A collective community effort successfully located Daniel and Music, which culminated in WeenWeenMusic, a user of the r/Daniellarson subreddit, and a member of the [[Ceel Team 6]], a rescue party led by former YouTuber [[Goated Mines]], rescuing Music and returning her to Longmont on July 11.
