One of the most
popular YouTubers ever. Due to his popularity he has had a lot success surrounding the "nigahiga" brand.
He used to make video Sean Fujiyoshi but
now does with himself with the Ryan Higa production company (group of friends/producers), along with Sean at times.
His videos are for entertainment and as of July 15,
2017, he has nearly 20 million subscribers on his main YouTube channel, making him have the 19th most subscribed channel on YouTube.
The channel was on
two occasions the most subscribed on YouTube, surpassing Smosh in September
2008 but losing it to Fred a month later until surpassing him in subscribers to become the most subscribed
YouTuber again in August of the next year, holding it until June
26,
2011.
Many say his reign as #1 was due to his comedy and spontaneous video schedule. Although his popularity has decreased in certain ways, he is still more relevant in different ways too.
He as well has another channel which has over 500 million views (his main channel having over 3 billion total video views) and nearly 5 million subscribers where he
post BTS videos of the videos he posted on his main channel.
