I have started to see Steve more often lately on a few YouTube channel videos again. I believe a few years back it was reported that he had a rare brain infection and it didn't really look good.
Later that year, (2023 I believe) it was reported that "he started feeling some back pain accompanied by dizziness and dehydration. A trip to the doctor revealed some brain swelling (encephalitis) and he was admitted to the hospital. In the end, Steve was suffering from a decades-old back injury that was compounded by dehydration—the result of years of stooping over lifting heavy objects. Thanks to a long stint on a ventilator and a tracheotomy followed by weeks in a wheelchair combined with physical therapy, Steve is in good spirits and now only a few weeks away from returning to his home in Massachusetts".
You can tell he's been through a lot, and the gray hair ages his appearance that's for sure.
