YouTube Scandal: Ned Fulmer is Removed from The Try Guys for Cheating on his Wife
Why the company is taking such swift action against one of its original founders.
If you are an avid YouTube watcher like I am, you are probably aware of The Try Guys.
Whether a fan or not, there’s no doubt about the massive impact the group has had on the platform since they sprung loose from BuzzFeed, the media giant they originally formed under.
They were the start of a lot of creators breaking free from huge production companies and producing their own content.
And unlike most, they were massively successful, surmounting more than 7 million subscribers to their YT channel.
Gaining new experiences, putting themselves in uncomfortable situations, and learning to appreciate other professions, became the basis of their brand and allowed them to make many spin off series that were also wildly successful.
So much so, they also landed a cooking show on Discovery +.
