The story
Daisuke Hori, who built his livestreaming career on the claim that he’s “slept just 30 minutes a day for 17 years,” has been found to have deleted that line from his profile. Viewers have confirmed that his marathon endurance stream cut off partway through, and that his YouTube channel name was also changed. On the 5ch “Nandemo Jikkyo G” (Live/Anything Goes) board, posters speculated about what happened during the stream while debating whether his claimed background was genuine and whether he owes viewers refunds.
What people said
What was that whole livestream even for
If he does refunds too, his novelty fame should even things out
Even his YouTube channel name changed lol
Apparently that's what he actually said
Since he's blaming it on "ignorance," he's off the hook, I guess
Meanwhile he kept saying medicine isn't absolute and that he was right because he'd kept researching it himself
Even I could pull that off, easy 😳
It's way too late for that now…
That bar for "never having to work again" sounds way too low
Some people dig deep when they investigate this stuff
Feels like he tried to smoke-screen the whole thing with the dick jokes
Studio musician, instrument maker, oil painter, industrial plant designer
Which one of these is even true
Background and Key Points of This Story
Daisuke Hori is said to have built his livestreaming career around the claim that he sleeps just 30 minutes a day, drawing viewer support along the way. Now that the phrase has disappeared from his profile, doubts about its truthfulness have grown louder on 5ch. Some posters point to possible résumé fraud and call for refunds, while the stream itself has ended and the channel name has reportedly been changed, with no explanation from Hori himself so far. Claims like a self-reported sleep schedule are hard for outsiders to verify, and once such claims become the basis for monetized livestreams, checking their accuracy tends to get pushed to the back burner. For now, there’s no way to know where fact ends and performance began short of an explanation from Hori himself, so a firm judgment should be withheld.
