<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe Wednesday night gesture helped people with their rent, utility bills, single mothers struggling, and some who just wanted a little to treat them and their loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He posted his tweet at 10:45, simply saying \u201cI wanna help a few people out, who\u2019s struggling atm? Let me know and send me your PayPal\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Replies quickly flooded in, some moving him to tears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And, his gesture drew people to commend him on his generosity, one user said: \u201cYou\u2019re so sweet, loving, kind human being\u201d, and another simply called him \u201can angel\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apart from some jokey responses Adam’s aim was to help those finding it tough without income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI wanted to help people who were especially struggling during this time so anyone who replied to the post, usually gave a story about what\u2019s going on in their lives at the moment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt was once again a reminder of how lucky I am. Whenever you see people and families be torn apart by this pandemic, it\u2019s very hard to ignore. My deepest love goes out to all of whom are affected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As well as his Youtube channel Adam has more than 500,000 followers across Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Tik Tok, where his witty antics and pranks have attracted growing numbers of followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He describes himself on his Facebook profile as \u201ca not so funny person trying to be funny\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But he recognises that his online success has left him in a better position than most during the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI do feel very fortunate that me and my family haven\u2019t been too affected by what\u2019s going on in the world at the moment,\u201d Adam explained. \u201cOf course, with YouTube, we are just seeing everyday as it passes by to see if there are any changes but as of yet, we are incredibly lucky to be in the position to help others out and it is always such a good feeling, being able to help and surprise others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd the support from others was a clear indication that you can help people who are in need with the smallest gestures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Those gestures reminded Adam of the positivity in these dark times<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere were no ulterior motives behind my reasoning that night,\u201d he said. \u201cI wanted to help people out, so I did just that. But what really warmed my heart was seeing other people actually send money to the people who I didn\u2019t get a chance to get back to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe comments under those tweets were almost like a little community of everyone helping everyone. It made me very emotional and reminded me that the Internet can be a good place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision to post on Twitter was so he could reach out quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTwitter is a handy platform because you can get immediate response from people and personally interact with them in a way that YouTube or Instagram doesn\u2019t support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a great way to get instant communication between myself and people who watch my videos.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
His initiative showed Adam that there is a positive message that can be sent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt proved to me that night how special community spirit truly is. We\u2019re all fighting this silent killer together. We\u2019ll battle through it together. And we\u2019ll come out on the other side together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On his Youtube channel Adam describes what he does that attracts so many subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou can catch me doing pranks, challenges, vlogs, Q&A’s, life hacks, gaming, eating food and so much more!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
