Why did berkel leave linus media group?

He went on to work for a mountainbiking company to edit videos. From what we have seen from him, that (mountain biking) was one of his hobbies.

It was also kind of clear to most that he wasn't into tech as much as the other LMG members, which I guess is why he worked more on ChannelSuperFun.

 

Not sure what the channel name was.

He always struck me as the kind of person who wants to work in an exciting and action filled environment. In the early "start-up" days of LMG, he got some of that, plus ChannelSuperFun, but today's LMG is much closer to a 'boring' office environment. All the sets are ready to go, camera & light setup is essentially standardized for a majority of shoots. It takes the fun out of it for someone like him who wants to work in the field, hence when he got the chance he left and started shooting outdoor sports like mountain biking.

 

He's also a one-man crew in that he enjoys planning, hosting, shooting, and editing the videos himself. Not something that is very common in today's LMG where they have dedicated writers, shooters, and editors.

 

I don't know if he's really friends with anyone still at LMG, but I think it'd be cool to see him return for a guest appearance in some videos if ChannelSuperFun ever returns, or perhaps something at LTX.
