There was this one from a couple years ago that was about self-driving cars and also sponsored by Waymo. Tom Nicholas made a video which IMO does a good job of covering the problems with that video, and the broader implications of this kind of content on YouTube.

Ha, I wasn't even talking about that one. I think I stopped watching before then because he just went in deep with the sponsors and it was clear he wasn't actually caring about the science anymore. The one I'm talking about he 'proved' that wet wipes are flushable.
