June 22nd Meltdown

The June 22nd Meltdown was the second of three meltdowns Daniel had in June 2022; this one occurring on June 22, 2022. The meltdown took place on YouTube and in his Community Tab page, accusing Andrew, his case manager at the time, was "putting his life and career in danger."

Background

Daniel began to post on TikTok for Papa Gut to cover the situation, before going on a rant about Andrew and his issues against him including his advice to not go to court. Daniel believed this advice was putting his safety, career and housing at risk, which also led to outstanding warrants. Daniel switches to YouTube, walking by a highway, asking his fans to "riot". Daniel also claimed to have contacted the VanderWaals and the media to bring attention to the situation.

The Meltdown

Moments after the videos were uploaded, Daniel's mental state had significantly worsened. He started to hit himself, saying that Bob and him do so when Andrew does not listen to him, blaming Andrew for his financial and mental health.
