Frankly, I don’t think he shaves all that quickly. I shave at about the same speed but I do 2 passes and spend a lot less time whipping up my lather. From start to finish it takes me about 5 minutes. And I don’t hurry.
Geofatboy - See how quickly he shaves!!!

I'm the same, I could and can (when needed) do it quicker, but why rush something I enjoy and find relaxing?
Wow, a true Chuck Norris of the shaving world. 
One does not shave the wild haggis, pretty much by definition.
WFIF, I've never seen Geo use any SE razor. He does (relatively) frequently demonstrates SR shaving, both with folding and non-folding shavettes and classical naked-blade SRs.
BTW, he was an electrician, not a plumber.

Link please! Lol!
I’ll see if I can find it. It wasn’t a blood bath or anything but the guy had a really dead pan approach that was...amusing

Would love to see that
I think this is it. It probably won’t live up to the hype at this point. I just find the guy hilarious. I’m part Italian and my OL is Italian and I find Italians hilarious.

Thanks man. he Is funny! those ATG passes were nuts!!
Right?? He’s a character for sure
I don't know what WFIF means.
Plumber, electrician..makes little difference what he did still quite a change of vocation to a YouTuber who sells shaving supplies. Its been over a year since I have seen his videos seems like a nice guy.

I think GeoFatBoy was an electrician in an earlier life. Whatever.
I guess it should read FWIW, which is "For What It's Worth", in case you didn't know.
His indestructabowls are expensive, but I really liked the videos he made trying to break them. They seemed legit. Especially when he tossed it in the air and hit it with a baseball bat. A few times. Gave me a lot of respect for the guy because he seemed genuinely proud of the product. His shaving videos are great. I just watched one and also was amazed at how fast he shaved. Apparently I shave in slow motion.

You and me both man!
What's "scary" is that he shaves that fast with such dry lather.
In the before time (when I was going into the office), I have on occasion got up, showered, single pass shave, dressed and out the door in 15 minutes.
A typical two pass shave with either a straight or de would be between 5 and 7 minutes from loading the brush to drying it off. I honestly cannot fathom taking half an hour or more for a shave, but to each their own.

Yes. He is overly steep for my tastes, especially with a straight or shavette.
He has inspired a lot of people, but I worry that newbies will hurt themselves trying to imitate his speed and his steep angles. It works for him, but it won't work for everybody.
