Last time I saw a video by this guy, he was explaining how the moon was fake or something.

True. But many of the popular models used nowadays to explain quantum phenomena also predict the existence of mutliple universe. By your same standard, gravitational waves as per Einstein's theory of relativity were "pseudoscience/science fiction" until LIGO detected direct evidence of them in September of 2015. Evidence is important. But something isn't necessarily psuedoscientific just because evidence hasn't been found for it yet. Granted, it should be noted that Einstein's theory of relativity successfully explained recorded phenomena were previous theory's failed. So until 2015, gravitation waves were only a conceptual model to explain gravity, not an actual tangible things: much like string theory or multiple universe theories today.

Nah dude, did you notice the cutesy animation and high pitched voice? He's totally credible. Nobody with animation and sound editing skills can be wrong.

i'd consider accurate models to be reasonable enough evidence. einstein's work was mostly theoretical so it didn't have evidence, but it accurately described behavior that we could test and prove and was also capable of making accurate predictions. i wasn't aware that any existing physics knowledge suggested the existence of other universes tho, if you had a linkle to some more info on that would be neat to hear about. either way the concept of multiple universes doesn't seem to help describe much in our universe so i duno
