The amount of work you put into promoting your sponsor really deserves a round of applause 😂 (and a grammy)

Sponsors should pay FJ like 10,000$ for every video because he really puts his everything and sponsors the duck out of it

Tier 6-specifically “can’t stop thinking about type“ is what prohibits me from swapping my snorkel gear for my scuba gear. I love the thumbnails for the different tiers, btw.

This was great! Such a comprehensive summary of an elaborate subculture.

Frank, your sponsorship spots are getting exponentially better with each video. Gonna have to watch that again 🤣

INTJ inherently at the bottom of the Iceberg in the Mastery of the Art of Deception using MBTI 😈

never thought i could sit through a sponsoring segment without blatantly skipping it

I guess I'm in tier-7. I've moved on from my obsessive phase of MBTI and am enjoying your content just for entertainment.

Everything in tier 5 and some aspects in tier 6 apply to me. It was really interesting to see the progress divided into different levels. I can totally see myself in all those levels, earlier when I didn't know that much about mbti. It's nice to know how far I've already come. Being deep into myers briggs sure is both a blessing and a curse.

I normally don't watch the more educational stuff you do, but wanted to say that the way this was filmed and edited made me so much more into it. Great work.

When he said that there was something in tier 6 he didn’t want to mention I expected it to be the theory that includes the polr function AKA the blind spot

pls do a 16 personalities when they are with their best match. that's would be nice. thanks for your hard work!

Regarding the 6th tier: as an INFJ, there was a moment I hated the Extraverted Feeling. I found it very tiresome and limiting. I wished to focus more on myself, my needs and to stop ignoring my problems. Recently I've learned to treat function stack as superpowers, kinda like the ones the X-men have. The functions are great on their own, but it is not a good idea to use it all the time without limits. Now I know the Fe is actually a gift :)

The cloverleaf ad needs a vdo of its own. I can watch it all day.

everyone in the lowest tier has gone from being proud of their type, to hating it, to indifference

ESTP’s definition of “dangerous”: drag racing FJ’s definition: explaining dubious theories (like visual typing) to people

ISTJ here, and the thing is, I'm about Tier 6, I just don't reference Old Jung material, and I don't hate my type, since ISTJ's are perfection.

I thought FJ was going to mention the “shadow functions” in tier 6. But I’m probably at tier 4-5.

INTJ here. The visual typing is so accurate, yesterday I went to do an exam and the moment I saw this guy enter the room I thought “This is the most INTP person I’ve ever known”. I mean, when I finished my exam I laid down on the table to get some sleep, I looked up and I saw him doing the same thing. What’s more INTP than that? MBTI is really funny sometimes

Lol - this is so helpful for curbing typing angst! I was at ~tier 3, borderline 4 (discovering the cognitive functions & wondering if I'd been mis-typed??), before I came to this wonderful channel; now I'm solidly at tier 4 :), seeing indeed that everyone does everything, and sliding emotionally (through INFP Fi?) towards tier 6 (especially about kicking against my own type, and also seeing type now in EVERY tv show I watch, lol!). But I have definitely skipped the good research of tier 5, lol! :) So I need to learn more, lol!! Thanks for making all of us in the MBTI community feel so seen, no matter what level of the iceberg we are at! And, your educational videos are so helpful - I have binged them all over the last month or so, lol!! MBTI as seen and explained through FJ's eyes, rock on! :)

I'm now at level 4 or 5 But as you defined, I do not want to go to level 6 But the information you provided was really great so that I could do my job better and better I teach programming on my KZfaq channel and as it was defined, this information really helps me to teach better and better attract the interest of the audience. Thank you very much

oh my god ive searched mbti iceberg on youtube before but found nothing and here i am

This is great and will probably encourage others to drop their gatekeeping keys and dig further with an open mind. Thank you for always working to improve others.

As an INTP, learning about MBTI has been quite the dangerous development hahaha. Although MBTI likely does not have enough parameters to accurately define and classify every neurotypical human, it's a fascinating guideline that has led me to a significant amount of self knowledge. I'm not 100% sure if it is a "psuedoscience" or not, but I believe that many people can gain a lot of self insight by finding out their type. Typing yourself raises a lot of introspective and existential questions about psychology that are at least fun to think about. It's important to remember though that your personality is NOT made entirely of four traits and a few cognitive functions. Everyone's personality is nuanced and specifically unique. MBTI is just a generalization and it is not an end all be all. It's more like a spectrum of traits and functions rather than concrete ones.

As an INFP I've noticed that only after reaching tier 7 was the best thing that has ever happened to me since getting into MBTI. Everyone uses all of the functions just a little more than others, as you get older you use the weaker functions regardless of whether you practice them or not. Life just works out that way. It's nice to revisit MBTI videos once and a while, and the community is the most accepting that I have experienced.

I love this so much. One of my best friends is like a 5 and halfway to 6. He went so far as to write a 60 page paper about everything in detail. Oh and did I mention he wrote the paper for fun. Then after he writes the paper, he explains everything to me bringing my level from a 2 to a 4. All while my SE hero is trying to jump ship every 3 and a half seconds cuz it got bored of his explanations. Lol Keep up the great vids

This is a great video, I saw a bit of my own journey, especially all the ways I have pushed typology into conversations. Great job!

This is such a good video! It really shines light on what it's like to be deep into not only mbti, but any unique system used for understanding the world & people. The 'blessing & a curse' side of almost like, not being able to unsee it is so real. Awesome vid!

Tier 7 is just Frank James and Nathan Glass, holding their breath and wishing the rest of the world cared about inferior function improvement.

You’re right! Now I’m in too deep! I saw the “Never stops watching FJ” and realized I’m already tier 6 at this point!!! 😩💙

The way you went through the tiers was as if you described my MBTI journey to the T lol! Not surprised I'm Tier 6 but I usually don't do visual typing or anything and my 'typing everything I come in contact with' mode is much more in balance, I related to every word you spoke about in this video and it's pretty hilarious cuz I've been following your channel for so long (with diff accounts might I add- cuz I keep switching for REASONS..) and most of my knowledge comes from your videos cuz you're my fav amongst the many 👐

I’m watching this as tier 1, I’m not super interested in learning about this stuff, but I love seeing how my personality type is portrayed in your skits and analysis vids. Also you have great editing and apparently rapping skills.

The transition to Sponsorship is so smooth, very nice!

I'm at tier 4, personality types are definitely more confusing than I thought and Frank is very accurate about that.

I love watching your educational videos! Not to mention your other funny side of productions, in which they are always the best treat of the day... Still learning from your educational ones, loving & understanding myself better than before... Vice versa, people around me! Thank you so very much for your dedication!!! Best!!! 💗

The video I never knew I needed

Dude your videos have just kept on getting better and better! Also I love your sense of humor, feels like some of Jreg's style rubbed off on you too lol. keep up the great work!

I am hearby petitioning to have all sponsorships rapped out from now on. That was awesome, man. 👍

very good summary!

I've been watching iceberg videos for a while now, I never expected one of my favorite KZfaqrs to do one too!

That sponsorship ad was cringe yet fun. 😂🤣 Nice job getting me to actually listen to it! You mentioning the 16personalities not being a true MBTI test reminded me of someone who is writing an autobiography and this is exactly where she got hers and is using seriously and I just can't. 🙃

Frank, I was thinking, "When will he say, 'soon you'll start to wonder if the mind is even real'". Then you said, "Is any of this real?" Honestly did not think I'd be at the bottom of the iceberg as an ESFJ. It happened just like you said, read Briggs Meyers book, read an introduction to Jung, read "Man and His Symbols" and just finished "The Psychology of the Unconscious Processes." All the Continental I read in undergrad is going to lead me straight to the "there is no mind" conclusion. 😬 Still, rocking this FJ stickers on my bottles and enjoying your content.

I would LOVE if you made a video explaining socionics and your visions/opinions about it

I'm at tier 6, awesome 🤣🤣 at this point i'm always piecing together my life situations and social interactions by types. The whole 16p thing really did help me unearth a lot about myself. I've tested infp from the start and that's what i've always been to this day. When i'm applying type to my life i don't necessarily use it as a strict guideline (doesn't account for nurture), yet if you watch enough you do seem to find counterbalances in how people percieve/make decisions in the world (cognitive axes) and it can be a great tool when applied properly. It's helped me so much in developing my relationships and communicating in ways others will be receptive to and understand. It's helped me rationalize everything that goes on in my head so i can actually find some way to express it. That's no small thing. It's also helped me tackle some of my biggest insecurities, fears, and doubts. I was in Te grip for years, but i'm me now and i'm keeping it that way. Very much worth the journey. Thank you for all you do FJ 👌

My daughter quizzes me all day with saying "what do you think (insert celebrity or acquaintance) personality is?" I have gotten one wrong out of hundreds...so tier six here🤚😑😬

this is the best sponsor song i ever heard (i mean i heard like two but this one is the best)

I found out about mbti and Carl Yung like two months ago and it appears I'm at the deepest level. I can relate to things a lot. I use it often in daily life because often I observe/analyse people, the cognitive functions feel like a way to put my observations into words. It really makes my life more interesting, because I get joy from observing and understanding people, I understand way better how other people can work. It intrigues me a lot to see different types of personalities in action. It also helped me to understand my INFJ brain better.

I've graduated from an infj to intj-t. Meaning my truest self. Feels good, better, freeing, don't put up with narc's, more than a minute Now. I'm not afraid to be alone anymore but am content. Although want that special person in my life with equity. I'm more on top of my evaluations and no need to second guess myself. So calming, maybe grounding is helping me, since I've been over the top absolutely highest anxiety, sooo enjoying being calm and thinking through the up and downs of daily life. Balance, is a good thing. Not over- spending my energy, at this point. Not over thinking, driving myself to the brink. But still analyzing and evaluating and thinking out side the box. I'm still me but Better 🥳 thank you for reminding me about the personality tests. I was infactically more prone to answering with an unfiltered honesty. Thanks FJ.

Great video

I'm far from a noob tbh lol mbti or no mbti you're my favourite youtuber everrrr

Thanks for dropping your new song

dayuum, cloverleaf!! james did u right!! james did u justice! maaaan !!! loooved this whole vid ^^ I .. really didn't expect myself to relate n reach level 6! wow!XD

I am certified and up to my ankles in Tier 5, and I won’t go further. Being a therapist, MBTI is intriguing but insufficient (just as any theory or model would have its strengths and limitations). I need to integrate several other frameworks for understanding human behaviour and helping my clients.

Scuba diving on the bottom of that icy ocean with you Frank ;) as deep as where Dory asked "are you my conscience?" Lol

Frank what a BANGER

I wasn’t sure if I was in the sixth tier or not, but then you said typing all of the time, even in tv shows and movies. It’s such a natural thing for me to do, that I didn’t really think about it too much, but I’ve been trying to type all of the characters of every movie and show I’ve watched for the past year. And I’m not sure how I should feel about that😂

I was ENFP when I first took test, it made no sense to me. Then I learned about MBTI types and cognitive functions then I realized I fit perfectly into ENFJ. As I learned more about MBTI, I discovered myself better. Even found how I can have a career that will be fun and enjoyable even in relationships too. But idk which tier I am in, 4/5/6. Ti always gives me trouble (overthinking/over sensitive) but knowing it helps override it consciously. I would recommend everyone to go deep into personality type to enjoy life a bit better.

Can't believe tier 6 is the deepest it goes. I feel like I still have so much to learn

great vid! surprised you didn’t bring up vultology

It really should be call frisky pony sense 😁 This video far surpassed all your other videos. I really love your sponsorship segments. I think the more curious you are the deeper you will go. I'm not exactly sure where I am because I'm kinda all over the place as always. You should see my thoughts on spirituality on life. I'm a INFP with a strange mind. I generally wear my heart on my sleeve. I jump around from topic to topic. I gain my connections this way. Things lead to each other and everything intersects. Life is like a web. Everything starts and leads to the center. Have fun with this insight 😊.

“Where are you on the iceberg? At the tippy top, like a little baby? Or at the depths?” 🤣🤣🤣 Are you at the depths? How much knowledge do you need to be there? 🤨🤨

Dude.. I wondered when your video gonna come out!

SO ACCURATE!! AMAZING!

Im glad i stopped in tier 5, even tho i do always try to figure out types when i’m watching a movie or something hehe. And I’m certain of my type, i used to underestimate it but i’m starting to appreciate it a lot now

I feel like I am a Tier 4.5 in general but a tier 6 in regards to my own type (INTP). I also feel like the walking stereotype of an INTP myself. Very informative, I am proud to be a niche expert on yet another topic!

Please do a video on mid-life crises. I'm a 45yo INTP who's been more and more in touch with my inferior Fe, and it'd be very informative to see you explain this process for all types.

Great video. Somehow I'm in tier 4, 5 and 6 at the same time. Going from not exactly knowing the functions and how they manifest (mostly in others) to seeing the functions in myself occasionally (not hating them nor my type, but having a good laugh realizing that I just acted in such a typical way for my type or that function). This may be because I tried to learn as much as possible about my own type (INFJ) first and now start to catch up on the other types. It's definitely addictive though, as I try to type everyone around me and make sense of their behavior in that way. I'm still really bad at it, especially with introverts. The extroverts and especially sensors seem much easier to type for me.

I absolutely visually type, mannerisms and social cues tell so much about someone’s type

FJ I don’t know how you always come up with such creative sponsorship ads. Also I bet you could’ve become a rapper instead of a KZfaqr lol

14:45 Oh! This reminds me of something I heard about Fe types and Fi types when they compliment someone.. For example Fe be like: "You're really talented and wonderful!" And Fi be like: "This thing that you have done is really good because you did it in this way....(*explains more reasons..*)."

I'm at the beginning of the 5th tier. Thanks for all the cool 5th tier stuff for me to research! But also I'm clearly in that 6th tier a bit. I, too, have started to enjoy Fairly Odd Parents because I'm typing and looking at the Cognitive functions in each character. And I already have decided I'm fine whether it's true or not.

yes frank i agreee, you should make a video about thatt

As an intj his is so accurate, we be searching for all types of knowledge and we be wanting to find every inch of the way everything operates and I can say I anylaze all the 16 mbti personalities, my twin bro(who is an enfj) managed to convince me to take it and since then I was obsessed cuz it literally explained why I am the way I am. Where my architects at? Comment below(other types are free to do so as well).

Have a great day Dr Frank

What a cool video! And now I am worried that I am approaching tier 6. There's no brake on the MBTI train... 😅 I really appreciate your content FJ, thank you so much for your work! ❤

Your content is a killer! Thanks FJ

At this point, I don’t know if I’m here for the video content or the sponsorship advertisements.😄👍

I can safely say that I'm currently advancing from Tier 3 to Tier 4, since I've recently started learning more about the cognitive functions, I start relating to some of them and just a few days ago I got into the mistype theory. Even I recently found out I was a mistyped INFJ that proved to be an ISFP in reality, beating down any prejudices I've had about Sensing Types. I admit that Tier 6 scares me.

Frank this is the most spot on video I’ve ever seen in my life

I’m mostly tier 4 but I’ve dipped my toe into tier 6. Frank, what have you got against enneagram though? The cognitive functions are interesting and I use MBTI to understand people’s surface level behaviour. But, by identifying what people’s enneagram seems to be, I often understand them better on an emotional level. I’ve found enneagram really useful for understanding where loved ones are coming from in conflicts and identify potential areas of friction (example: my 7w8 friend is going to love it if we have Bad Santa/ white elephant type games at the Christmas party, but the 1w2 will probably find it very upsetting)

this is so accurate wow

Omg the way frank described this journey I've gone on down the iceberg is so accurate. I doubted my type at the start plainly because I didn't understand how mbti worked. Kept typing as intj and fell under the I'm an intj spell. Then I discovered good old jung and cognitive functions and starting doubting my type more and more and mbti as a whole. Eventually settled for being an entp as it made the most sense but then theres also enfp, infp and entj so I came to the conclusion that maybe there's something not quite developed enough in mbti theory?

this video made me reflect back on how did all of this research started and finaly decided to get back to my original goal witch is self dev... but i'm still gonna keep watching the memes X) stay cool and attractive ;D

Frank James, you should look at some clips of the old seasons of Survivor. There’s so many interaction between people trying to work together (or against each other) that lend itself to typing. I’m sure it’s true of some of the other seasons too. Also, Big Brother seems to be good for this too. I just haven’t watched as much.

I admire FJ’s courage for doing these videos. I wonder though if some of the things he did keep him up at night. I know it would keep me up, cringeing and regretting. 😂 Great job! Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. 🙌🏽🤘🏽

Lol Just started the video, so funny already 😂 I knew I had more to learn. And, honestly, I love that. But, at the same time, apparently I dove deeper than I thought I did... But hey, that makes sense too. (Or maybe I should start stop here?? It's so hard, though!! I just got into the 6th tear... I'm addicted!) That's awesome... Thank you, Frank.

Btw, I love the 90's rap video. I didn't know that there were 16 personality websites back in 1995. I honestly was bopping to that, FJ. It was awesome. 😂

I'm certainly on Tier 5. Also this sort of perfectly represents the confidence - knowledge curve, which is pretty cool

I am in tier 4 rn and I hope I stay in there, tier 6 is too scary.

Frank, I really like your advertisement sections. I usually suffer through someone's sponsor message, but I actually look forward to your creativity. 🥰

That rap was dope! You should release it, it'll hit the top of the charts!

Wow, I didn´t expect I am all the way down in tier 6 xD Honestly, everything you said in that tier applies to me, except for hating my own type. Even the visual typing. Honestly, I can recongnise an INFJ just by the look in their eyes and their smile. Like recently I got introduced to my new teacher and just the moment I saw her face I was like ,,INFJ" and as I got to know her more, turns out, she is an INFJ. Unless I am wrong of course, but as you said, I don´t really care anymore xD

_Hides all of my ennergram information, volumes of books and five assessment test results_ Hello there!

This is a great video that really shows how typology and cognitive functions can be utilized without being abused. So many people take it all as scripture, others yet will fully dismiss it. It can really be a great way to help people understand themselves and others better, where your strengths and weaknesses lie and how to work on those. As well as to find where your differences in things like communication styles or value systems with others lie and how to possibly overcome those. But it's so, SO easy to fall for its pitfalls, especially if you don't really understand cognitive functions or are bad at connecting dots or are just very rigid/prejudiced/black & white etc etc. Funny enough, the better you know people, the harder it can be to type them sometimes. IMO there's way too much emphasis put on people being 1 (stereo)type anyway. I feel like people just tend to settle for a standard mode they spend most their time in and can act more like certain other types in different situations. Their preferred method of taking in and processing information, why they value certain things more than others, how they deal with feelings and situations, others and themselves. Life changes constantly, there's no shame in being a little flexible. And even if there would be, it might save your life. So many people seem to put pride (directly or humblebragly) in being the epitome of a certain type, as though being a stereotype is admirable. It's really the most unhealthy ones that are the stereotypes that can't budge an inch cause their way of seeing/doing things CLEARLY just makes the most sense. Obviously, without conscious awareness and effort, we tend to act the most like other types in times of stress or 'extraordinary' circumstances. It's usually a pretty basic response, and often not the most mature way of dealing with something. But at least it means there's some flexibility there, instead of only relying on those functions that lie completely in your comfort zone 100% of the time. And so, hopefully, just like some people tend to be less sure of their own type BECAUSE they know themselves better, you see people closer to you react to more different kinds of situations than the people you know only superficially. You see them in more different modes and with less masking going on. And so sometimes you can be a little less sure what their standard mode is than certain other people you've just met. Obviously, it could also mean these people are extremely maladjusted to their type, going against their nature all the time or simply always under some form of stress that makes them set up a weird coping mechanism. Especially if they seem to be constantly switching between certain types with very little consistency to one preference.

Hey Frank ! I would be so happy if you do a loop and grips video ❤❤

Took the cloverleaf test and the other test I took three times. On both, I’ve always gotten Campaigner/Champion. ENFP for life!!

My first test was done by professional councillors I'm family therapy did few tests over the years always get ENFP never hated my type or wanted to be another I know a bit but not obesessed or into typing others instead I use logic. It's an overall general type rather than an exact mould, there are many factors like upbringing, culture and environmental factors, etc, that help shape a person. It's meant to help not be a rule for life to live by.

Thanks for the Horse Sense!

Oh my gosh..you are constantly rapping in slow motion Frank James! HelArious-yess!
