Mark Rober is the Glitter Bomb guy. This has potential.

I quit watching his videos. I couldn't get over how insufferable he is.

    I think he's switched from a science-bro style to an over-the-top kids presenter style since that was the majority of his audience & the target for his learning products. Not a fan of either, but the former was easier to watch, for me at least.

    I've heard the name and and knew about the glitter bomb, but never connected the two. Wasn't the glitter bomb staged?

    Fairly certain he sold his channel to private equity recently, so this kinda makes sense.
