Aight, so I'm not much of blogger, vlogger, tumblr, which ever platform...

BUT, there is this young and somewhat mysterious film maker that started a blog just over a month ago on his 34th birthday and I'm telling you, I became instantly hooked. (Has anyone heard of him?)

Here's a sample of one his films: (it's only 27 seconds)




This man leads such an interesting life, he is mad inspiring, coming from living on welfare with a kid at 16 years old, to married and living in two bedroom apartment in New York making way good money.

If you need a daily dose of inspiration, this will give you that boost. It's interesting how motivation comes from the most random of places. I just wanted to share with my NT famb these videos:

Not to mention, he uses the dopest beats in all his videos.

His "vlog" announcement, first one:



Notable vlog entries:

The day he took a helicopter ride around NYC.



The story of how he went from a broken leg, to marathon runner



He move to New York just barely a year before the attack on the twin towers.



Other notable films he has made:

The first ad he made for NIKE. (He literally travels around the work with the budget Nike gave him)

The second ad he made for NIKE.

Just casually kickin' it with Supermodel Karlie Kloss.

OK! My goal with showing you all of this, is that I hope you guys get that same fire of inspiration as did.

Tell me what y'all think of these videos, what's your favorite?

I can relate to the first vid

Lately been thinkin of how people's lives don't crumble in front of them who seemingly do absolutely nothing. It takes me so damn much just to maintain I really don't get how lazy people get by.

The 27 second video? Yeah man, I can relate. One of my BEST friends has hit this slump and this guy just lays in bed and watches TV all day. I can't tell you how much I would love if he would just do stuff with me man. Idk maybe he has mono
 
Also, he's given me a crazy look that I've never seen before about living in New York. Doesn't really seem that bad at all.
 
Bumpin' this because he's pullin' more views so maybe y'all may have come across him.

Anyone check his vids out?
 
Yo, i used to love that show he and his brother Van used to have on HBO, the Neistat Bros.

always had me trying to build little knick knacks

I love that video of Casey's studio, the layout is so crazy

repped for being A casey fan.

i got hooked this week on him and i watch him every day now like it's a new tv show.

i share all the same sentiments OP said in his first post.

Casey is one of the few people i can honestly call brilliant.

Like his vids, he's the only vlog that doesn't seem douchey, all others I can't watch for more than a few secs

Makes me miss NY a lot when I watch. Has inspired me to run and travel more for sure
