My Favorite YouTube Channels

It's no secret to anyone who knows me that I spend quite a bit of my free time (= about 85%) on YouTube. Maybe that's weird, but I don't think so. It's not like I pass my days watching funny cat videos (not that there's anything wrong with that), but I watch all kinds of videos. From music videos over cooking shows to documentaries, there are so many different facets of channels on YT. In case you ever get bored or just want to check out what's out there, I'll introduce you guys to my Top 5 favorite YT channels out of the 123 I'm subscribed to so far. Admittedly, I'll probably end up mentioning a few more channel names as I'm having a hard time deciding which ones to include and which ones not to include. But let's get going!
(These are in no special order)

1. JennaMarbles (& MaxNoSleeves)  

Jenna Marbles is a comedian who talks about literally everything. If you have little kids around and would not like them to learn several cuss words in a period of about 3 minutes, you might want to make sure they are out of hearing reach. I have always enjoyed her videos, but lately she seems to be running out of ideas which I guess is just natural. My all time favorite video of hers is probably this one (a song about being a grown up) to your right. MaxNoSleeves is Jenna Marbles ex boyfriend as after starring in her videos quite frequently he eventually started his own channel and the style of the videos is pretty much the same as hers. As you might have already figured out by his channel name, he barely ever wears a shirt that still has its sleeves. He does not have too many videos yet, but I really enjoyed this one called "Cell Phone Problems":

 

2. JacksGap

This channel was originally created to show what this certain Jack is going to be up to during his gap year. Things went viral after he introduced his twin Finn and since then the two English boys have become quite popular (most likely also due to the fact that they are not the ugliest people on the planet). I was introduced to this channel by a girl who was in my English class last semester and in case you're reading this: Thank you :D! They do all sorts of funny videos and my favorite so far was their "British Slang" collab video with Tyler Oakley (you'll be introduced to him later on): 

3. Tyler Oakley

He is just so adorable and funny, PLUS he's from Michigan so I'm basically besties with him (he just doesn't know about it). I don't know what else I could say about him...he's just awesome and the only kinds of videos I like more than his are the ones with him AND Jack & Finn! My favorite video of Tyler is probably the one in which he (sarcastically) explains why he loves the TLC show "Honey Boo Boo": 

4. Zombie Gate

This is a vegan cooking channel owned by John the Vegan Zombie. I'm not into all of this Zombie Apocalypse stuff, but he incorporates just the right amount of it in his cooking videos to make them fun and not like any others. He has lots of recipes, but he takes quite a while to make new videos. My favorite video would probably be one of his Blooper Reels, but from the ones about food I really like the Tamales one (although I haven't even tried this recipe out yet): 

5. Louis Theroux


Louis Theroux is a journalist from the BBC that makes very interesting documentaries. He doesn't have all of them on his YT channel, but from the ones he does have on there, the one I like best is the one about the Westboro Baptist Church. You can also just type his name into the search bar and you will find more documentaries that he doesn't have on his channel yet.
