Basically you take an animal like a cat or dog put it in a dangerous place like stuck in something to it's head, wrapped in barded wire or something else. You then walk away a pretty good distance and turn on your camera, do your whole youtube monologue and find the animal. You get it out of the place you put it so it looks like you are saving it and get people to watch/share it as an awww video. Then you just repeat that 1-2 times a week and you have a Youtube channel.

you ever noticed how people miraculously have their cameras ready and capture perfect footage of animals in distress? I mean how many puppies get their heads stuck in jars in India per week? So yeah, unfortunately these videos get millions of views and now people are exploiting pets for views and profit.
