* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEt27Jgp8gs The announcement video for Dunkey & Leah' brand new game publishing company, Bigmode]]. You have to admit that, after more than a decade simply playing and reviewing games, seeing them deciding to involve themselves even further in the gaming world is really cool.

* The final fight in Congo Jungle in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2fcSWvJ3wI Ultimate Smash Bruddas]] between Dunkey and Sky Williams (yes, [[ItWasHisSled the one time where Dunkey beat Sky in Smash]]), just based on how ''nail-bitingly intense'' it was. That fight alone provided a thrill that could give most action movies a run for their money, considering how ''into'' it both players were, with Dunkey repeatedly screaming "JUST FUCKING DIE!" to Sky.

* In his Metroid Dread review, Dunkey jokes that the game was directed by Joe Perry of Music/{{Aerosmith}} fame. The ''Aerosmith youtube page'' commented on the video and voiced approval of the joke.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXqHtF4I3M8 100 Movie Recommendations in One Minute]] - [[SilenceIsGolden No need for words, or any sound at all;]] just 100 different half-seconds from 100 different movies. Both an awesomely unique recommendation list and a visually wonderful celebration of cinema in its own right.

* On August 12, 2021 [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVK-XvZEymc Dunkey hosted a fake listening party]] claiming to have a copy of [[Music/KanyeWest Kanye West's]]upcoming album ''Donda'', but all of the tracks were really just meme music. One of the tracks was the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4QeypcBMyQ Globglogabgalab]] song from WesternAnimation/StrawinskyAndTheMysteriousHouse. [[https://youtu.be/m5P24B-s7ks?t=478 On August 26, 2021]] Kanye himself hosted the third ''real' listening party for ''Donda'' and played the Globglogabgalab's song for a full stadium, seemingly in reference to Dunkey's video. Given that Dunkey seems to be a big Kanye fan and enjoys creating his own raps, having his silly meme recognized by either Kanye himself or someone on Kanye's team is a pretty big deal. Doubles as a Crowning Moment of Funny for something so absurd to go so far.

* Following the partially relatable, partially gutbusting "I'm Done Making Good Videos", Dunkey began uploading purposefully clickbaity videos on a daily basis. The awesome comes in when the realization hits; he's doing this to expose just how much YouTube's algorithms favors quantity over quality, to the point that his channel's views have shot up by ''344%'' since he started, as well as passive-aggressively ''tearing'' into Youtubers commonly accused of clickbait and pandering such as Ali-A, Jake Paul, etc. He's even ended up on the ''trending page'', meaning he has successfully tricked Youtube into ''recommending videos that mock its algorithm.''

Black Best Friend has been renamed, and this doesn't fit the trope


* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cl72woucC7g&feature=youtu.be&t=21s One time]], Dunk was on a Skype call with a group including his BlackBestFriend Sky Williams and a new person that they'd added, and this new person ended up [[BerserkButton calling Leah a bitch]]. Dunk ''immediately'' told him to "get the [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] off the call", and told him again when the person tried saying it was a joke. Sky even says how shocking this was for him since Dunk is normally a really nice person.

** Another Overwatch video, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Wv6okd57t8 Hamston Checks Out]]", involves Dunkey as [[{{Malaproper}} Hamston]] not only doing his usual shenanigans, but also getting some Play of the Game worthy plays, like a triple bowling kill on Route 66 even if he goes [[TakingYouWithMe off the cliff]].

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n83K-cHHg4 "Youtubers"]] is one part lighthearted mockery of popular let's players, one part completely ''destroying'' certain unsavory youtubers with decidedly un-lighthearted mockery.

* '''The second verse of "Final Boss"'''. [[https://youtu.be/NyWwRivr1wE After a humorously nonsensical first verse]] in Dunkey's traditional sense of humor, the beat switches for the [[https://youtu.be/NyWwRivr1wE?t=1m12s second half]] and Dunkey basically takes shots at the entire ''League'' community on Youtube. In less than 2 minutes. It's safe to say that Dunkey earned a ''lot'' of respect from that video.

Zapping redundant pothole.


* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3HFEeC3_E Worst Hanzo Ever]] can basically be summarized as a montage of Dunkey kicking ass in ''[[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} Overwatch]]''. What makes it even better is that despite his teammates telling him that they don't need a certain hero on their team, Dunkey ''still'' manages to clean house as said hero, proving them wrong.

The best part has to be where he tracks it to where it's sleeping and manages to damage it with exploding barrels ''and'' managing to damage one of its horns.
