This channel has always been Mikey and Enes, not Enes and the camera guy, from the very beginning. I mean, look at some of the first videos, there’s some of my very favorite ones .They started this channel together, and Mikey has always been loved by the audience for good reason, he grounded the channel. It’s truly not the same without him. Its not that we don’t love Enes, hes Enes, but I think I speak for everyone when I say that for longtime fans, it’s genuinely sad to see this happen to one of my favorite channels of all time.. 😔🤷‍♂️. Enes I love you buddy, but give us something regarding what’s going on. If possible, that is. Best of luck going forward.

Mikey is happy and comfortable at his new home in Sea World. And I don't know if his dorsal fin has retracted yet, but I'm sure if you hurry, you can catch him practicing his jumps this Summer?

@KF-cx8bm Ай бұрын

I to have watched from the begigning. The reality is that even tho we feel we have a personal connection with Enes ( After all he has been in our homes with us for a long time and we are invested to him and the channel ) he does not know us atol, we are a number to him, ie subscribers. He comes across as lovely because he is doing his job, Im sure each and every one of us can be lovely and nice for the period of time we are at work. He is clearly not going to answer the MIcky question, and even refuses to answer to posts when he is asked about him. I would also be very surprised if he replied and not an admin assistant to his channel. This truly shows the quality of the man on this matter and how he feels about his viewers !

ISISTANBUL is more modern than I thought, and it attracts me just like New York! The beautiful scenery outside the window of this PENTHOUSE is so charming and shocking! Having an exclusive elevator in your home is really special and very suitable for the elderly to live in! It’s so convenient to have a kitchen next to the terrace, so you can have an outdoor party at home at any time! ISTANBUL spans Europe and Asia and is a beautiful city with rich culture! Thank you very much for sharing! 👍🥰🙏

The window style and surrounding for the air vents are too similar to offices I've worked in for me to ever consider this property somewhere I could leave. For anyone interested: the outro / night tour music is "Rift" by Kooma.

@vmcprojects 2 ай бұрын

Enes and Team, I think most viewers periodically check in to see the latest greatest adventure you guys got for us. But at the same time, I think it would help your audience to bring some closure around Mikey. If he is not going to be with the team anymore (for either good or bad reasons), fine, because these kinds of things happen. If he wants go on a short term hiatus, so be it. If he wants to go on to other projects, that's understandable. Just that he's been with you from the beginning and most of the audience was accustomed to seeing him. It's almost expected that he'll be part of some videos. So for Mikey to abruptly disappear is where the concern comes from. It ain't anyone's business what's going on, and we're not entitled to an explanation at all, but some form of closure would help. Wishing y'all the best nonetheless!

Love the reviews, but if I was looking for a nearly $10M place this would be a hard pass. The place feels cramped and Ritz Carlton's choice to recycle an old building leaves the place feeling very antiquated and claustrophobic. The outdoor space is nice and the location looks great, but doesn't seem to justify the price tag.
