Will the universe just take a break this month already?

Dunno what is with all the bad news recently. Not only do you have all the usual stuff in the news, but you also got Dugan Ashley having a rough time, and now another YouTuber I watch on the regular has passed away. 

Taofledermaus is a great YouTube channel that does ballistic testing on a variety of different (mostly) shotgun loads for the sake of academic exercise. It's pretty entertaining, and they test a lot of things that are home made from their viewers with often surprising results, with a variety of guests and testers on the show. They are like mythbusters, but just for shotguns stuff, and they don't suck. 

Danny is a regular on the channel, who has appeared quite often as both a tester and submitter of his own projectile designs, and had an immediate charm to add to the channel when he was on. He did help with a farewell video that you can watch here.  He will be missed, and it's nice to see that so many people in the comments are both respectful and sympathetic as Jeff points out.

Again, this is some tear-jerking material, so if you need a pick me up afterwards here's something to help with that from another YouTuber that I love:
