You've highlighted one of his videos before. He has the amazing patience necessary to really find out each and every bug/exploit. Just watch his videos! Please put him on the Riot team. He absolutely deserves it.

He also has an eye condition that forces him to pretty much stay indoors on his computer all day. His eyes don't secrete enough oil to keep themselves moist so the slightest wind causes him a lot of pain. I don't know what he does for a living, but being a bug tester at Riot would be perfect for him! It would allow him to stay inside like he needs to and still make a living!

Patient and diligent people are good to have for finding and fixing bugs. Kudos to him for finding these issues.

But why post them publicly? (isn't there an option for only certain people to view the videos on certain sites) Are they being reported to Riot or does Riot already know about them? Couldn't these public videos be used by other gamers to exploit the game until the issues are fixed?

I'm 100% sure doing this is probably bannable.

Why would they put him on the pay role when he is currently doing it for free?

You do realize Riot mostly only cares about money why else would they not

Balance all champions equally?
Not nerf Lee Sin.
Not always make Icons purchasable by IP.
Have a "sale" every week.

This isn't a bug but something they overlooked in the design and didn't code to program against. Not hard to find a lot of bugs considering the number this game has. I have at least 40 videos from my past 50~70 games of various bugs and that is after deleting the vast majority of videos for space (basically 1+ bug per game). Riot has terrible bad programmers unfortunately and clearly has no intention of doing anything about them years later.

I strongly agree with others that making major bugs commonly known is by far the best way to get things fixed otherwise Riot won't properly fix it in a reasonable period. They have been known to take 2-4 years to fix extremely well known detailed bugs (Nid/Shaco for example). Better to ruin a couple of games for a few days due to sharing the info then to let it silently ruin countless ranked matches for a year or two or even months like certain past exploits Riot refused to believe for months on end.

He would be a perfect canidate, if only he didn't use these bug exploits in game defying the summoner code and creating unfair scenario. And then after that, tell US to do it on our own!
