Asked why he didn't stop the prank despite Colie's repeated requests, Cook said he 'almost did' but not because he sensed fear or anger from Colie.

The YouTuber insisted during the trial that he had no inkling he had scared or angered Colie during the prank - despite the delivery driver telling him to stop three times before trying to knock the phone away from his face.
