In 2020, Daniel gained a sizeable following due to his unusual style of content and odd appearance. As Daniel's popularity increased, more and more [[trolls]] began to exploit his gullibility. Many of these trolls were inspired by the tolling of controversial internet personalities such as [https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Christian_Weston_Chandler Chris Chan,] or [[wikipedia:Terry_A._Davis|Terry A. Davis]]. In order to get Daniel's attention, trolls would often pose as [[Management|managers]] from well known record labels and prey upon his delusions of fame and fortune. Daniel would fall for their ruses almost every single time, which only served to exacerbate his untreated mental delusions. The constant trolling, along with the resulting paranoia, eventually transformed Daniel from a well-meaning, albeit odd, individual into someone with genuine problems, who regularly broke the law and posted deranged content.

Many of these trolls were inspired by the trolling of previous controversial Internet personalities, seeing Daniel as a new [https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Christian_Weston_Chandler Chris Chan,] or [[wikipedia:Terry_A._Davis|Terry A.

Daniel considers himself a celebrity, specifically, a [[Music Career|world-famous musician]], despite spending the majority of his adult life as a [[Homeless Era|homeless vagrant]]. Daniel has recorded two songs; [[Roaring Thunder|"Roaring Thunder"]] and [[Something More|"Something More."]] His music is not what Daniel is most known for however, as his TikToks showcasing his disturbing meltdowns and [[incidents]] garner far more attention.   
Daniel considers himself a celebrity, specifically, a [[Music Career|world-famous musician]], despite spending the majority of his adult life as a [[Homeless Era|homeless vagrant]]. Even so, Daniel has recorded two songs; [[Roaring Thunder|"Roaring Thunder"]] and [[Something More|"Something More."]] His music is not what Daniel is most known for however, as his TikToks showcasing his disturbing meltdowns and [[incidents]] garner far more attention.   


The primary reason behind his behavior is attributed to Daniel's several [[Daniel Larson's health|mental disorders]], and his unwillingness to receive help or treatment for them. Daniel is confirmed to have [[Daniel and Mental Health|autism,]] [[Daniel and Mental Health|bipolar disorder, PTSD, and, most notably, schizophrenia]], which adds intense difficulty to his daily life.<ref>https://archive.org/details/download_20240113</ref> Early on in his life, Daniel did receive some degree of treatment for his disorders, however these efforts ceased when Daniel reached adulthood.

Daniel's content is regularly hosted on his many [[Social Media Accounts|TikTok and YouTube accounts]], however many of these accounts have been banned over the years. The reasons for his bans vary greatly. In one notable instance, Daniel was banned from TikTok for [[The May 6th Incident|exposing his genitals on a live stream]]. Daniel's [[Pedophilia|pedophilic tendencies]], use of racial slurs, and [[College Arc|assaults]] on [[Self Harm|himself]] and [[December 10th Incident|others]], including his [[Bob Proctor|elderly mentor]], Bob Proctor, have appeared in his livestreams and posts to TikTok.

From 2021 onwards, Daniel faced many significant life-altering setbacks, several of which being self-inflicted. After several instances of destruction of property in the housing that he was provided with, Daniel became [[Homeless Era|homeless]]. In early 2023, Daniel revealed that he had contracted [[scabies]], which caused him great discomfort and medical complications. Daniel's mental state became worse as his circumstances worsened. Daniel posted about [[Grace VanderWaal]] on a near daily basis, and would even go so far as to claim that the two were in a romantic relationship. His self-professed love of Grace did not help his case when he was exposed several times for [[Pinterest|pedophilic behaviour]]. Other notable events include Daniel [[Dog Arc|adopting a dog]], [[Bodega Incident|assaulting a bodega employee]], attempting to enroll in [[College Arc|college]] [[UCLA Arc|twice]], pulling a fire alarm at an [[Olive Garden Incident|Olive Garden]], and [[Jail (Disambiguation)|being arrested on multiple occasions]].  
From 2021 onwards, Daniel faced many significant life-altering setbacks, several of which being self-inflicted. After repeatedly destroying property in his disability housing, Daniel became [[Homeless Era|homeless]]. In early 2023, Daniel revealed that he had contracted [[scabies]] after repeatedly refusing to bathe. Daniel posted about [[Grace VanderWaal]] on a near daily basis, at one point threatening to end her life. Other notable events include Daniel [[Dog Arc|adopting a dog]], [[Bodega Incident|assaulting a bodega employee]], attempting to enroll in [[College Arc|college]] [[UCLA Arc|twice]], pulling a fire alarm at an [[Olive Garden Incident|Olive Garden]], [[Jail (Disambiguation)|being arrested on multiple occasions]], and generally becoming more mentally ill than when he first started posted.


Daniel's mental issues are far more severe than those of other lolcows such as Chris Chan. Even after years of people trying to help him, Daniel shows no signs of stopping his incredibly dangerous behaviour.     
There has truly been no other person like Daniel Larson. Daniel's mental issues are far more severe than those of other lolcows such as Chris Chan, and even after years of people trying to help him, Daniel shows no signs of stopping his incredibly dangerous behavior.     


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, gullibility, narcissism, sexual deviancy, criminal activity, and, most importantly, the world watching a man deteriorate day by day.

Daniel Robert Larson was born on November 15, 1998 in [[wikipedia:Lancaster,_California|Lancaster, California,]] to his parents; [[Elisabeth Shimer|Elisabeth Lee Shimer]] and [[Travis Larson|James Travis Larson]]. His parents were fairly young when they gave birth to him. While Elizabeth's age is not known, his father was only 20 at the time of his son's birth. Daniel's genesis could have been spurred by claims of his father being "[[:File:Elisabeths post about Travis.png|obsessed with sex]]," however this is is difficult to verify. In 2001, Daniel's mother gave birth to his late siblings, [[Family|Joyetta and Olivia]], who sadly passed away due to blood type incompatibility between the girls and their mother.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fdannybob98%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0MnyaEcaQ2RWSmKDwvt26jKSZw7xEZRMYiBkFQAV3EENY8vvYHxxfFuLFWcn8FYual</ref>

Observing Daniel’s facial features, including a thin, flat upper lip and small eye openings, it has been speculated that Daniel may suffer from fetal alcohol syndrome.<ref>https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/15677-fetal-alcohol-syndrome</ref> However, this can’t be proven, and furthermore, Elisabeth's impaired state adds complexity to the situation.

When Daniel was a toddler, he was said to have been playmates with his neighbor's [[Dog Arc|dog]]. In one of his TikToks, Daniel describes how the dog impaled itself on a spiked fence while the two were playing.<ref>https://www.tiktok.com/@averagelarsonian/video/7196410748418018606</ref> This event is thought to have been an early source of trauma for Daniel.   <gallery mode="packed">

Following his parent's divorce in 2010, Daniel moved to Colorado with his mother. The divorce is thought to have been the result of his father's poor treatment of Daniel. Supposedly, Daniel's father saw him as a, “...lost cause.”<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/139sc49/comment/jj419qs/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3</ref> The decision to move was also influenced by Colorado's reputedly better mental and physical health support opposed to California's.<ref name=":3">[[:File:Elisabeth Comment 1.png|File:Elisabeth Comment 1.png]]</ref> Better physical care would also benefit Daniel's mother, who had suffered from lupus since the age of 20.

According to his mother, Daniel, even from a young age, displayed severe signs of disabilities such as autism, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.<ref name=":4">[[:File:Elisabeth Final Comment.png|File:Elisabeth Final Comment.png]]</ref> This may be because his mother, and possibly his father, may be mentally challenged to some extent.
