Twitter just made two students from Riverside Polytechnic High School legendary. Josh Holz, the man behind the lens, made a 30 second documentary style clip full of bro love, in its purest form, using his partner in crime Daniel Lara as his subject. He wanted the world to respect his boy’s fresh code – the street wear brand Stussy and white vans. Just so you knew it wasn’t a one time fluke, the video shows Daniel rocking a plethora of looks over the course of days, possibly weeks. Daniel doesn’t miss. The final product destroyed the Twitter box office.

As is customary with any internet sensation, the timeline takes the ball and runs with it, adding their own flavor to the original phenomena in hopes of getting recognition for their fire remix. These are some of the best the community had to offer.
1. Clorox made a fire reach for relevancy

6. Some people hated on it.
7. But we rose above it.
Anyone that doesn’t think the Damn Daniel video isn’t funny are people you don’t need in your life. You don’t need that negativity.

How long Daniel is here to stay as a topic of discussion on Twitter is impossible to say. He may fade away into obscurity after another week of memes, gifs, and copycat vine attempts, or you might catch your boys Josh and Daniel on the red carpet at the next Teen Choice Awards. That’s just how the Internet works. However, if you’re already sick of the damn, Daniel tweets, you might want to log off for a while.
