Not a vlogger, but CarlH was a respected reddit user who had a long and successful series of C programming lessons on youtube. I remember going through some of his videos back in the day.

He was arrested for abusing and exploiting his own son for child pornography, and later commited suicide in jail. I guess you can't fall much harder.
