It seems like CemreCandar will do almost anything for attention. So long as it involves pouring huge amounts of random substances in a bathtub and documenting the results on his YouTube channel. But he outdid himself in his latest video by pouring 1,250 bottles of hot sauce into a tub and then dunking himself inside with disastrous results.
One thing the YouTube star apparently didn’t count on was how the scorching, spicy hot sauce would seep into his skin. That because apparent when just moments after dipping himself into the hot tub, he screamed out, “It’s in my butt!”
Candar has racked up millions of views with his other videos, such as when he poured more than 500 pounds of liquid chocolate into the same tub, marinating in 1,500 liquified Oreos and dunking himself in 600 pounds of beer. But this may be his biggest hit yet, with nearly four million people on YouTube alone having already watched the clip. It’s also sweet validation for people who aren’t huge fans of his over-the-top approach. Though for anyone who thinks it was a total waste of time, Candar says the bottles of hot sauce were all about to expire, “so no money and hot sauce were wasted in this video.”
Grieving couple comforting each other
This response to someone grieving a friend might be the best internet comment ever
When someone is hit with the sudden loss of a friend or loved one, words rarely feel like enough. Yet, more than a decade ago, a wise Redditor named GSnow shared thoughts so profound they still bring comfort to grieving hearts today.
Originally posted around 2011, the now-famous reply was rediscovered when Upvoted, an official Reddit publication, featured it again to remind everyone of its enduring truth. It began as a simple plea for help: “My friend just died. I don't know what to do.”
What followed was a piece of writing that many consider one of the internet’s best comments of all time. It remains shared across social media, grief forums, and personal messages to this day because its honesty and metaphor speak to the raw reality of loss and the slow, irregular path toward healing.
Below is GSnow’s full reply, unchanged, in all its gentle, wave-crashing beauty:
Why this advice still matters
Mental health professionals and grief counselors often describe bereavement in stages or phases, but GSnow’s “wave theory” gives an image more relatable for many. Rather than a linear process, grief surges and retreats—sometimes triggered by a song, a place, or a simple morning cup of coffee.
In recent years, this metaphor has found renewed relevance. Communities on Reddit, TikTok, and grief support groups frequently reshare it to help explain the unpredictable nature of mourning.
Many readers say this analogy helps them feel less alone, giving them permission to ride each wave of grief rather than fight it.
Finding comfort in shared wisdom
Since this comment first surfaced, countless people have posted their own stories underneath it, thanking GSnow and passing the words to others facing fresh heartbreak. It’s proof that sometimes, the internet can feel like a global support group—strangers linked by shared loss and hope.
For those searching for more support today, organizations like The Dougy Center, GriefShare, and local bereavement groups offer compassionate resources. If you or someone you know is struggling with intense grief, please reach out to mental health professionals who can help navigate these deep waters.
When grief comes crashing like the ocean, remember these words—and hang on. There is life between the waves.
