Does Nikocado Avocado Quit YOUTUBE? — Or He Is Dead?
Who is Nikocado Avocado?
Nicholas Perry, publicly known as Nikocado Avocado is an American YouTuber who is famous for his Mukbang (eating show) videos. Nicholas was born on May 19, 1992, in Ukraine and moved to Philadelphia in the United States. He started his early YouTube career as a vegan and more of like health based channel. But that was not successful enough. So from 2106, he quit veganism and switched from a health base channel to a Mukbang creator.
After starting his career as a Mukbanger, in December 2019, he started gathering some public eyes (after a controversy with another fellow Mukbanger). From then his channel started growing exponentially. As of the current date, he has around 6.2M (4 channels combined), with more than 1.3 billion views.
Is he dead? or did he quit YouTube?
Long story short — Yes.
Yes, he is not dead yet (he will be if he keeps going like this).
In one of his recent Instagram posts, he declared through a status that he is quitting YouTube.
Why did he quit?
As stated in the status the reason behind his quitting YouTube is his personal life and health concerns.
He said —
“I figured I come on here to let you all know that yesterday’s video was my last Mukbang. It was not a troll, it was not a joke. That’s why everyone is freakin out cause I’ve not posted a day. My first time in 3 years not posting; like missing a day. but, cause I’ve meant it. If I don’t take control of my health, I’m gonna die. The 320lb is nothing to be laughing about anymore and I need to work on my relationship off camera, so anyways yesterday’s video was the last one and I meant it.”
In one of his old videos, he said that he will quit after he turn 30. As he knew he can not eat like that his whole life. And coincidently his age now is 30. So, he kept his word.
Though he keeps posting his videos on the ‘More Nikocado’ channel and last posted 4days ago. But I guess that was a pre-recorded video. I am not sure.
What you can expect from him in the future?
If he actually left YouTube for his health then it will be massive news for him. He is at a point of his weight now, where if he keeps eating food like he usually does, he will end up dying pretty soon. I would hope he comes back after a year or so with a leaner/healthier body like he was earlier. So, let’s hope for the best.
Conclusion
He is a real-life example of a mindless eater. This is what happens when you are controlled by the food. We should learn from him — how junk food can lead us to death. I know it is ok, to have junk once in a while but if you keep eating them daily you will end up like him. Even the junk foods will start feeling like sh*t over time.
So, take charge of your health first. Everything in moderation is good.
