Why THERE WILL NEVER BE Another SHMEE! (Shmee150)

One of my favorite people in the automotive KZfaq world: Tim Burton, or ‪@Shmee150‬ . Today, I wanted to talk about why there will never be another shmee!
Tim is an OG when it comes to automotive youtube. He's been around making content since before "automotive youtube" was even a thing!
Almost every aspect of Tim's channel, as well as his existence on the platform, is remarkable. It's something only a true love and passion for cars could make happen. It's something that I don't think we'll ever see again.
I got to spend a lot of time hanging out with Tim during my Savage Garage days with Randy, and every single one of them was a good time. Tim is such an amazing guy, and in my opinion, deserves every bit of success he has today.
Check out Tim!

@@ariescustomif you actually look at Tim's history, you'll find out that he came from nothing. He didn't start out with any advantages or handouts. Nowadays, that's almost impossible to do in the car content world, but Tim is one of the very few. It never ceases to amaze me how so many people desire and excuse for someone else's success.

Shmee is the the nice guy you give the keys to your hypercar because you know he‘ll treat your stuff well. I mean, I enjoy DDE, but I‘ll never let them drive my hypercar. Not even a Corolla.

@SirDaus Жыл бұрын

You forgot about the knowledge. MOST of the time, the info is just at the tip of his head and on point. Just by looking at the cars, he knows the models, limited editions, numbers made... Most of the time it's on point. We all know he research it first before starting the recording, but continuously mention one car after another for the next 15 cars. That takes experience and love. And good memory.

@zenastheracer Жыл бұрын

I think one other thing not highlighted as to how Shmee able to drive what he gets to drive, he genuinely has driving skill. He's proven he can drive these types of cars within a respectable level. No supercar/hypercar manufacturer will ever trust some random influencer to drive their cars if they know they can't handle it.

@Antonio88870 Жыл бұрын

Great point, not only he has some years of experience driving those cars but also he had some level of track racing classes so he really can drive and be thrusted with whatever car a collector or brand gives to him. I mean just on the past month he has driven a Pagani Codalunga, a 911 GT1 and a Bugatti Chiron, not to mention his own cars during the Gumball... Not every person can have that kind of access to cars like that and be thrusted with things so valuable, rare and powerful.

@milootje007 Жыл бұрын

Hey Jimbo, i was a (reluctant) fan of Savage garage towards the end, the last year or so. I say reluctant because Randy (even though i loved him for who he was) was an in your face kind of guy, not the type of person i normally vibe with or get along with. After SG i saw how you struggled and tried to find your identity, and wether you should hang on to SG or let go, a very hard thing to do, especially after leaning on the shoulders of giants. But you did it, you made an incredible, genuine heartfelt tribute/last hurrah that clearly came from the heart and now you are making (didn't even know that was possible) fresh content that has your own identity and feel to it and is very enjoyable. I want to hereby acknowledge that i'm impressed and that you've grown immensely. Kudo's. You've got a new sub.

When we were younger we used to watch top gear and when it ended there was a big empty gap for new automotive content which was through social media and i believe tim saw that and took his chance, this is why i respect him so much, he kinda predicted the future and knew what people will be interested in, simple, easy and straight to the point content

Tim simply loves cars, he isn't a snob, and he legit enjoys every aspect of what he does. The reason why people trust him with their expensive cars is he has a high amount of mechanical sympathy for cars, even ones he doesn't own. He is a safe pair of hands, but also experienced with track driving. He is my favorite KZfaqr, not just car KZfaqr due to his genuine interest and love for his subject matter.

He'll always seize an opportunity no matter what unless there's something physically/mentally wrong with his body.

This is a fantastic video, and honestly lays out everything Tim has done with KZfaq that shows how unique he is. Yes, I'm a fan of him, yes, I've watched him for the better part of a decade... And I simply cannot understand the rampant opposition to Tim that salivates with things like, "he's a rich baby" or "his voice is annoying" Who the hell cares? Maybe it's just that I'm British, so I've grown used to his accent, but I honestly don't even notice it by this point. And if he is from old money, again, so what? I have a lot of respect for Tim, allowing us viewers to have a peek at some of the coolest collections, cars, and experiences through his videos. Also, at 2:00 that video is what introduced me to Savage Garage, so I'll definitely thank Tim for that if I see him in person one day

@Antonio88870 the Virgin got high on some stuff and decided to talk bad about other KZfaqrs and claim he was the reason for their success. At the same time his mom stroked his ego by saying he was a child genius and that his IQ was higher than Einsteins. He slated his dad while he was at it and started picking on kids who were calling him out. Well that's the gist. I doubt jimbo would cover any of that since he was on team Randy at the time and Randy was standing by the virgin.
