Las Vegas Arc

Las Vegas, besides being a US City, is one that has multiple ties to Daniel. Daniel had left on February 13, 2023, from Palmdale, California to Las Vegas, Nevada by bus. The reason why he left California and went to Las Vegas was because he claimed to need "more popularity", and hopes to get a jackpot to buy a $3,000 dollar apartment in Beverly Hills, California. Many fans speculate that he would get arrested due to the police in Las Vegas being more strict than in California due to the extremely high rates of crime.

February 14th

Daniels "Friends"

As soon as Daniel arrived in Las Vegas Daniel met a group of people he claimed to be his new friends, he posted a multitude of videos of him and his new friends messing around and doing various activities with each other

On February 14, 2023, Valentine's Day, 2023, Daniel Larson approaches a drunken couple. When the young woman in the couple accidentally drops her coin purse on the ground, Daniel helps and gives the coins back in the purse while attempting to persuade them to get him a hotel room, so most likely Daniel can stay the night in a bed and charge his phone, this never ended up happening.

Daniel eventually "lost them", and made multiple videos asking them to meet him in multiple places, it is assumed that they abandoned him.

February 15th

On February 15th, 2023, at approximately 2:00 am, Daniel was found in The New York New York casino bathroom by two security guards who were very aggressively trying to get Daniel off the toilet and off the property. Daniel screamed and told the security guards that they weren't going to do anything as the guards yelled at him to leave. Eventually, the guards managed to open the stall door, and Daniel lunged and seemingly kicked it down. The guard on the other side of the stall door told him that he needed to calm down and asked if he was acting stupid. Daniel fought with the guards the entire way out, stating that he hadn't done anything wrong.

The aftermath resulted in Daniel being extremely upset by the encounter, posting many videos of himself visibly distraught along with hitting himself. At one point, a park guard asks what was going on and claims the hotel "sexually tried to harass me". The park guard explains to Daniel that the area was closed and that he must leave. Daniel does not, however, and continues to explain his woes to this man. Later in the day at another casino, Daniel is reported to have trespassed, which escalated into him being banned and not allowed to ever return again. The security guard explains that Daniel was caught sleeping three times, to which Daniel denies. Daniel comes very close to being arrested, but eventually gives up and leaves on his, own stating that the security guards are "lying about everything".

After this, A group of people on the Daniel Larson World Discord server (The name of the person who confronted security was Iamstoney, and the person that found his location at Hershey world was Mythic_sparrow) Found Daniel's location via using his Tiktok videos, "Stoney" confronts Daniel and tells him "not to talk to the kids" nearby, Stoney as well as many other people, confront security resulting in Daniel getting kicked out of the establishment. Stoney then later claims security told him Daniel is banned from all MGM properties and will be arrested on sight if seen at one ever again.

Gone Missing

Following a very eventful February 15th morning, Daniel posted a TikTok around 6pm (TikTok epoch: 1676515770) stating that if he is able to get a motel room that night he will do a two-hour live stream. However, said live stream never ended up happening, and it became the last post Daniel made, and he was gone for a longer period of time than moments in the past.

Potential Sightings

Since Daniel has been missing, there have been some claims of sightings and interactions with varying degrees of validity.

trudyparker1

TikTok user "trudyparker1" uploaded a video of someone they claim is Daniel Larson, and much of the community seems to agree. The description of the video says: "Daniel larson 12:24pm PST Feb 16 2023 Vegas outlets". Trudyparker1 is very adamant that he saw Daniel's face and confirms that it is him.

Ill_Editor1804

On February 22nd, 2023, a Reddit user named "Ill_Editor1804" made a post claiming to have witnessed Daniel being kicked off a bus for refusing to pay the fare. The user uploaded a video, which they later uploaded a higher quality version of, that they captured shortly after the interaction. The man in the video is wearing the same clothing that Daniel was last seen in, which adds to the credibility of the sighting. Notably, he also appears to be bald and is seen with Daniels comically large nose.

Still from Ill_Editor1804's video

The user made an update to the post, stating that this sighting happened on Sahara Ave after the westbound freeway entrance (coordinates appear to be: 36.14426, -115.1823), and that Daniel had a phone in his hand, which was either dead or broken. The user also mentioned that Daniel sounded very upset and frantic, "almost like something did happen"

The Return

On February 23rd, 2023, at approximately 4:30 pm PST, Daniel returned to TikTok on a new account named "DanielLarsonLV". He uploaded a series of videos explaining his absence, claiming it was due to an attack by two "fans". According to Daniel, these two fans approached him at a casino, offered to buy him food, which they did, and while walking to a different casino to buy Daniel a hotel room, on Fremont Street, one of the fans struck him from behind, along with pushing him to the ground. The two then ran off with Daniel's phone. The altercation resulted in a fractured skull, which was diagnosed during a hospital visit and will take up to six months to heal, which somewhat explains the rumors of him being seen being taken into an ambulance during the days of his disappearance. Following this, Daniel contacted the authorities and pressed charges against the two, stating that one seemed more complicit than the other.

In addition to his return, Daniel claims that he will receive $380 in food stamps per month and has secured housing through a company called Sober Homes. Both of these services are based in Nevada, indicating that Daniel has no plans to return to LA.

The Identity of the attackers is unknown, Daniel describes them as a long haired African American male with dreads, and a small Hispanic male who was the person he believed actually took his phone. There are currently accusations on the /r/daniellarson subreddit pointing out various members involved in the community. However, no claim has been validated yet and as of yet, it is not confirmed who the assailants are.

Suspects of the February 23, 2023 Attack

Tyrone

Daniel Larson state on the Daniel Larson 2023 Youtube channel that Grace VanderWaal's ex was responsible for attacking him. Daniel alleged that an African-American male with long dreads attacked him. Members of the community named him Tyrone after Daniel Larson called him Tyrone on his social media.

Past Management / Fans

Some members of the fan base believe that this attack was planned by either Daniel Larson's old "management" or by disgruntled fans. Most speculate and agree with the latter.

Homeless Again

On February 27th, 2023, at 11:14:42 PST, Daniel posted a video to his tiktok account saying that Sober Homes (or as he pronounces it, Sober Homies) kicked him out of their service. This was due to Daniel not having enough money to pay for his rent. And earlier in the day, Daniel had stated that he will be homeless for another few months. This resulted in the February 27th situation, where Daniel uploaded over 50 videos in one day (see Timeline for more information)

Later that same day, Daniel dines and dashes for the first time since the start of the Homeless Again section of this arc. This time it is at a Dave & Busters. Daniel makes a few tiktoks talking about his bank account while he is sitting at a booth inside the Dave & Busters, before making another one asking for a $30 donation to pay his bill. Around an hour later, he posts a video of him walking outside a building, where he explains that there was an issue with his credit card, and that he is banned from the shopping center that the Dave & Busters is located in. A bit after that video, he posts another video where he claims that the February 23rd attack happened on Fremont Street.

On February 28th, Daniel privates his tiktok account after his phone number is leaked. The leak may be related to him giving his phone number to "Grace VanderWaal". Later that night Daniel is encouraged to go live, and he does. The entire short livestream he is asking for Grace or Dave to join and to verify. But, since his account was private it was hard for some fans to watch it if they had not been following him. The livestream ends swiftly, and mostly uneventfully.

The Firework Threat

This situation starts while Daniel is inside a restaurant. He had been uploading videos frequently for around an hour before this. Then Daniel posts a video, and in it he says "Where is the nearest firework shop?", and then "I have an idea" while smiling at the camera. Some fans were alarmed by this, for example "@_may_tricks_" on tiktok who commented "what are you planning, Daniel?"

The situation continues only around 10 minutes later, when Daniel uploads another video. He had left the restaurant by this point, so he is walking outside. In this first alarming video, Daniel says "Ok folks, get ready, for the biggest incident of all of Daniel Larson history so far, lets do this". A few videos later, Daniel posts the most concerning one, where he says he is going to go into a casino with a firework, and then "...I can see how real firing works", before laughing at the camera. Both videos are shown below.

Daniel also went live shorty after posting the videos. The videos resulted in the account 'daniellarsonlv' to be banned off of tiktok. The ban can be seen happening while he is live in the video below (provided by u/NoBoss6864)

The Aftermath

Shortly after 'daniellarsonlv' was banned, Daniel created a new account on tiktok called 'lovedaniellarsonforever'

Daniel uploaded 3 videos to this account, but the next posts he would make after that would only be on his youtube. On Daniel's youtube channel 'danielarson2023' he uploaded a video using the YouTube Shorts feature where he said that the 'lovedaniellarsonforever' account was banned. But this was strange because the tiktok account was still up, as well as the 3 videos on it. Many people in the comments pointed this out, but Daniel hasn't to responded to any of them.

Then, after that, Daniel made a new tiktok account 'daniellarsonnyc'. In the first many videos of this account, a red wall with holes can be seen behind Daniel. Daniel talks many topics in the beginning of this account, such as a possible collaboration with Snoop Dog, a guest appearance on Ellen DeGeneres's show, and requests for his fans to spread this new account to the subreddit and the Daniel Larson Wiki. Daniel made several other videos at this location, one in which he says his livestream for that night was "cancelled" because he did not have enough followers.

The next day, March 2nd, fans in the reddit noticed that Daniel had not uploaded anything new this day. They made theories, such as Daniel getting on a bus back to Denver to find Bob. But, the questions were answered when multiple redditors (this person and this person seem to be the first) say that they spoke with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LMVPD) and casino security, and have confirmed that Daniel was arrested for trespassing at a Casino.

Fans share their predictions on what will happen next

This was a huge deal in the reddit. Some members saying that he'll get hurt in prison, others glad he's arrested, and some asking for security camera footage of the arrest. But a lot of people seemed to agree that he will probably get let out soon, as it wasn't a major crime and all the details had not been released yet. Some fans wanted to keep him in prison, and decided to send the video of the firework threat to the police department to possibly get Daniel in more trouble.

Mental Health Hospital

Between March 2nd and March 14th 2023 Daniel did not post to any social media accounts and claims to have been in a mental health hospital in Las Vegas. Daniel claims that one of the psychiatric doctors didn't want to release Daniel due to his online presence, "they said that it was ugly". Daniel claims that he was put there due to another attack on him at The STRAT Hotel, and also due to this attack he was also banned for life.

End of Arc

On March 17th, Daniel posted a video in which he stated "Okay, my bus ticket is now booked from Las Vegas to Phoenix". Next he would upload 11 videos where he is on the Las Vegas monorail, and it can be seen to be nighttime outside. He would also upload a screenshot of Phoenix Arizona on google images, and a picture he took of himself with a sausage or wiener in his mouth. Then, around 6 hours later, he would upload another video saying "On my way to Phoenix, baby". He documents his over 5 hour journey through several videos where he is on a bus. In the videos he would record himself or the landscape as the bus passed it by.

Eventually, he would make it to Phoenix. He makes several videos thanking people for Cashapp donations, as well as mentioning he isn't taking his Latuda medication because it was "making my speech blurred and it was making me more confused to where I couldn't think".
