His acquaintance with his schoolmate Jimmy Donaldson changed his life. Both were very funny creative people. That helped them gain a massive following on YouTube.

The boys made videos for YouTube together. At first, they streamed themselves playing popular 2010 computer games. Later the boys invented many other things they used in videos, which helped them gather a massive following.
