JiDion came close to cancelling the viral WNBA sleeping prank, as he revealed in an interview with Andrew Schulz on the FLafrant podcast.
"I was at their game, genuinely having a great time. I told my filmer, 'Yeah, I am not doing it, 'and I chickened out. I seriously considered not going through with it, "he recounted. However, after discussing the idea with some friends, they persuaded him to take his sleeping bag, head, and pillow to his courtside seats to film the video.
"We went through with it. I did feel guilty, though, "he continued. "It was a mean-spirited thing to do."
The YouTuber also criticized those who labelled him as “misogynistic” after the prank went viral just because it took place at a WNBA event.
JiDion stated that engaging in trolling behaviour does not imply any hatred towards women.
There seems to be no indication of him slowing down with his videos; in fact, Ji’s YouTube channel is currently more popular than ever.
Also, he collaborated with Niko Omilana to create a YouTube series called “The Biggest Menace,” which gained popularity, though the series concluded earlier this year.
