There hasn't been an angry internet lynch mob. There has been one guy who posted multiple faked videos of numbers juggling with a balance, claiming them as evidence for world records. When called on his bullshit, he didn't admit to faking the tricks, and was called a liar. A few months later he released another video, once again faked,Mobutu even less convincingly, and again claimed it as evidence of a world record. Again he was called on his bullshit.
Calling a liar a liar is not a lunch mob. Nobody blocked him on Facebook, he blocked us. Nobody took down his videos, he deleted them himself. Nobody swore at him, he swore at us. It's like the opposite of a mob.
As it happens, while I don't know the circumstance of Anthiny Gatto's 6 club claim, when Anthony released his 8 club record video, he came under a lot of criticism for his attitude, and lost a lot of respect from a lot of people. It was probably his most arrogant video, from someone who had the least reason to ever be arrogant. He lost a lot of fans that day.
And again, Willy didn't put up a video that happened to be dodgy. He had two perfectly good videos of a single attempt, from two different angles, and edited them both to be as dodgy as possible. I can't believe you are still defending his blatant and calculated dishonesty.
