** Niles's mom will find any excuse to beat her son, even when he comes home late or accidentally ejaculates on her, which for any reasonable parent, would have just resulted in a lecture for more sane parents as opposed to ''physical abuse''. In other videos she even takes her anger out on other people and beats them when Niles disappears on her successfully.

''Disappearing: The Origin'' is a 2016 short film produced by [=YouTuber=] Nileseyy Niles.
Niles is frequently harassed by other people, which leads to a mysterious old man giving him the power to disappear simply by flashing the 'peace' sign with his hands.
----
!!Tropes in this short film include:
* AbusiveParent: Niles's mom has a short temper and beats him with a belt whenever he does something wrong, [[DisproportionateRetribution no matter how minuscule.]]
* CaughtWithYourPantsDown: In the prologue, Niles is masturbating to porn on his computer, only for his mom to walk in just as he ejaculates... and it gets all over her. Cue the belt and him disappearing.
* DisproportionateRetribution:
** Niles's mom will find any excuse to beat her son, even when he comes home late or accidentally ejaculates on her, which for any reasonable parent, would have just resulted in a lecture for more sane parents as opposed to ''physical abuse''.
** A white rapper sets his gang on Niles (and his friends, by association) for not liking his mixtape.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Niles gives a WhatTheHellHero to his friends for leaving him to get beat up at the beginning, and then does the same thing to them at the end.
* MagicalNegro: Niles receives his disappearing power from a mysterious old black man.
* NWordPrivileges: The N-word is dropped a couple of times by the African-American cast.
* NoEnding: The video cuts to the credits when Niles disappears from the confrontation while his friends run away.
* NoSell:
** Niles can't disappear if he's interrupted before his power can activate, like when he got beat by his mom or when the rapper closed his fingers.
** At the end, Niles's friend also attempt to disappear like Niles when they get confronted by gangsters, but it obviously doesn't work, forcing them to run away instead.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Niles disappears (or attempts to, in some cases) whenever he's about to be beat up.
* ShoutOut:
** Niles compares the old man that gave him his disappearing power to Creator/JackieChan.
** One of Niles's friends compares the other's voice to [[Series/TheMuppets Kermit the Frog]].
* ThatsWhatSheSaid: When Niles's friends call him to hang out.
-->'''Friend 1:''' Come faster, n****!\\
'''Friend 2:''' Woah... ''[{{beat}}]'' You not gonna say "no homo"?\\
'''Friend 1:''' Your mind is in the wrong place, that's your problem.
* TokenWhite: The rapper is the only white character amongst a cast of African-American guys.
* TrainingMontage: The old man makes Niles do one after his disappearing power fails in order to teach him how to defend himself.
* UnexplainedRecovery: Niles leaves his car at the gas station after using his disappearing power for the first time to escape from the rapper and his gang, resulting in him teleporting back into his bedroom. He's later shown with his car back, which could reasonably be explained as him walking back to his car (though there's some FridgeLogic since he's not seen with it again until the next day, which would have gotten it towed by then since it was sitting in front one of the fuel dispensers).
* WhatTheHellHero: Niles gives one to his friends for ditching him in the confrontation at the beginning of the video. Otherwise, he doesn't hold it against them that much, except for him [[LaserGuidedKarma turning the tables at the end]].
