'Hydraulic Press Channel' gets YouTube award for 100K subscribers and then promptly crushes it

Over the last year, the Hydraulic Press Channel on YouTube has seen its following explode -- much like nearly everything put under a hydraulic press. 

Due to the channel's success, YouTube awarded Lauri Vuohensilta with a commemorative Silver Play button plaque. Naturally, he decided to crush it. 

The channel currently has over a million subscribers, which means it will be receiving a Gold Play button shortly. Can't imagine its fate will be very different.
