Famous YouTube Rapper Dan Bull Reaches Out to Fans

[tomm]

Top YouTuber Dan Bull, famous for excellent gaming rap comedy videos has reached out to his three-quarters-of-a-million fans for help with hyperacusis, tensor tympani syndrome (TTS), temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) and eustachian tube disorder that is harming his music and video production.

Some strong language.

 

[RaZaH]

F... I feel for that dude.. Man..
Just tweeted him and invited him to join us over here.

 

[Viktor Salvatore]

Did he mention tinnitus?

 

[tomm]

No tinnitus, just hyperacusis plus the other symptoms mentioned above.

 

[Apocalypse77]

Famous YouTubers Marzia Bisognin and Roman Atwood suffer from tinnitus as well.

 

[Onsdag]

Did Dan Bull get better? Hyperacusis cured?

Famous YouTubers Marzia Bisognin and Roman Atwood suffer from tinnitus as well.

How do you know that Marzia has tinnitus?

How do you know that Marzia has tinnitus?

She uploaded a video in 2014 or 2013 where she did a "are you controlled by aliens" test (I just checked and she has deleted it).

One of the questions was: "Do you have ringing in your ears?"

I clearly remember she answering: "Oh, does this mean that 'EEeeeeee' in your head that some people hear. Yes, I hear that all the time."

This stuck to my mind because at 2013 I had a really low tinnitus (much lower than now), but I was still sad because I thought that how many suffers from this thing. This Marzia's answer boosted my mood.

It's sort of comforting to learn that a person you have watched suffers the same condition as you without even knowing it. She seems to live a happy and fulfilling life, so why wouldn't we be able to as well?

It's a shame that the video dosen't exist anymore, but I believe you.

This is exactly what I thought. I remember that I felt so much better when I knew that she had gone through this.

Just learned that the famous YouTuber "jacksepticeye" also has tinnitus. He talks about it in this video from 12:30 and forward.

 

[Apocalypse77]

Wow! Thanks for posting this @Markus I have been watching Jacksepticeye for a few years and did not know that he had tinnitus. I think if he stopped using headphones for a while his tinnitus could get lower.

@Markus Nice man you have not been here for over a half year. I hope your T went away!

I think a lot of the younger generation will develop T, we live in the virtual age and video games are such a big deal nowadays. The louder the games the better, and it all goes straight into your head phones.

I used to play Rainbow Six nonstop and since i played competitively I would spend the money on the most expensive head piece i can find, sometimes these things completely isolate outside noise, and you would have to turn the volume up as high as possible so you can hear the enemy footsteps.

Without a doubt many of my gaming friends have T as well...strange world to live in

Restoration and repair of hearing and cochlear damage is a mandatory.

the same thing happened to me. I played a lot cs go but I had to leave it because it implied having very high sound levels to listen to the footsteps of the enemy. I eventually started playing PUBG where sound is important but not essential.
right now I'm not playing anything just because I'm studying
and it distracts me

LOL I know, I play PUBG mostly now too...i don't use headphones much and the volume from my monitor is always set to low...it sucks because you can't hear people when they are shuffling around in the same house that you are. Ah well...

 

[Shaqz]

I have that plus severe loud tinnitus. It doesn't bother me at all because of tinnitus so I guess when you have one problem the other one doesn't matter much...

Bumping this thread. I went through Dan's YouTube videos and I saw he got grommets, followed by jaw surgery (cleared the joint with saline it seems). He hasn't complained or posted about the problem now in 6 years, so I'm guessing he's cured.

Anyone know whether his hyperacusis did indeed resolve?

Were they regular grommets or the heavy metal ones?

Not sure but having dug a little deeper into this it looks like the grommets didn't do anything for him. So it's still unclear as to whether he's improved and, if he has, what helped him.

How can we get all these people working together?!
