Does anyone remember Spinosail?; A ZT2 youtuber

I remember there was a popular ZT2 youtube named Spinosail who made machinima videos. He was most well known for his Prehistoric Park: A New Beginning Series. He made a total of three episodes for that series. In the first episode he went back in time to bring back Brachiosaurus. In the second episode he went back in time to bring back Smilodon. And the third episode he went back in time to bring back a Therizinosaurus. He had planned to finish that episode after CC came out but then the leaks happened. He also made a Jurassic Park spin off series which he later cancelled. Eventually one day he left without any notice, deleting his channel. The irony is I remember watching a video of him responding to a rumor that he was leaving youtube which he denied. His reasons for leaving are unclear and I kind of wish he had at least let his channel for future generations to enjoy. Even Stalker2k7 no longer makes ZT2 machinima videos but you can still find them on his channel which he left. Does anyone else remember Spinosail? If so what did you like about his videos?

Proof I am not making this all up

Yeah, I've come into contact with him about a year ago and became good friends with him.

When I first got into contact with him and asked about the videos he regrets not leaving them up, but the videos are now lost in time sadly.

I'm good friends with him too.

He talked about his videos once and sadly yeah, Dilo's right and they are gone.

Apologies for the necro, but as this topic is about me, I figure I might as well clarify for the sake of record-keeping.

I remember creating PP:NB like it was yesterday. I still remember the old map layout and where I'd planned to put eventual animals like Argentinosaurus and Iguanodon when CC was released. The third episode was actually supposed to undergo a bit of a plot twist, wherein the portal malfunctioned, sending the ship back to the Eocene. Instead of catching a Therizinosaurus, the actual target was Basilosaurus, as well as a few other animals like Andrewsarchus, Arsinotherium, and Apidium. Later episodes would've targeted Therizinosaurus, Colombian mammoths, and Giganotosaurus, rounding out the park, with a final episode taking place in Cretaceous Montana prior to the K-T extinction event.

The reason I left was because I was, at the time, a very hormonal 13-year-old boy, who felt like ZT2 was a medium with a lot of limits for filmmaking. I grew frustrated trying to record some scenes, such as the ship from the third episode making landfall, getting an Andrewsarchus to appear to chase me, and similar feats. So instead of coming back to it, I moved to a new project, with a Jurassic Park theme. That was shortlived as it was also difficult to film and make believeable (although the premise of Ingen hiring a high school student to do genomic research was already shoddy at best). I moved on to another episode-long series after that was set to star the avatars of myself and some friends (much like King Hoopla was doing at the time), but that fell through once again to film limitations. I simply grew frustrated, and with real life becoming increasingly overbearing, I wanted an out. Perhaps I only needed a temporary break, but to just disappear and have the channel still up might've caused more worry. So I took it down and left to ZT2 community altogether. I do regret at least not backing up the videos; would've been nice to re-release them if I ever came back.
