I also haven't seen anything from him, but I've seen things that talk about him. My understanding is he's a guy who makes outlandish videos, and some of that is "charity" (is it charity if you profit more off the video about it?) that got really popular. Other than that, I don't really know what he does.

is it charity if you profit more off the video about it?

Yes.

Technically by definition you're correct, though there is a lot of philosophical debate about where it's "good" (in a moral sense).

If you make money from a video about charity, that can further help others? Absolutely.
