It's crazy! The craziest part in my opinion though, is that he already posted this project, but it didn't succeed. The first time he created his project under the title "The Coolest: Cooler with Blender, Music and So Much More" with a goal of $125,000 and it got up to $100,000 some. Then about 8 months later he retries his luck with "COOLEST COOLER: 21st Century Cooler that's Actually Cooler". Even the picture of his newer project looks better!
It's amazing that he made $13 million dollars, even though he only asked for $50,000 the second time around! It truly shows that a few changes will definitely help with your project! Anyone who wants their project to thrive should use his project differences as an example. His new video had a much better emotional feel to it than his last video. The title was different, the picture looked better, everything looked better!
Think about it for a second, it was around 8-9 months that he didn't do anything. What would that give him enough time to do? Perhaps get a strong fan base before his project went live? Enough time to really plan everything out? Definitely! I hope that this encourages people to make whatever their great idea is into a project that helps their dreams come true!
