With the rise of online content creation came new forms of entertainment. In a world where being a Youtuber is a full-time career, the Paul brothers are undoubtedly part of this growing culture of online superstardom. If you were born after 2000, you’re likely to have heard of the names Jake or Logan Paul by now. Known for their crazy antics, party-loving lifestyle, and larger-than-life personas, the two brothers were originally big names on Vine before the app went defunct in 2017. Moving to YouTube, their careers have skyrocketed, with the two having a combined total of 40 million+ subscribers.
Both Jake and Logan started with prank videos and vlogs before moving to other fields like music, podcasts, and now professional boxing, wrestling, and entrepreneurship.
Jake Paul's Brother
Jake Paul has a brother, Logan Paul. The elder of the two, Logan Paul, was born on April 1, 1995. Both brothers attended Westlake High School in Ohio, which is where they were born and raised. Logan eventually dropped out of college to pursue a full-time career in content creation after going viral on Vine and was the first of the two brothers to achieve internet stardom.
Jake Paul eventually followed in his brother’s footsteps, and both of them have since reached the upper echelon of YouTube success, establishing successful and lucrative careers on the platform. Although both brothers have reached fame, they have also had to endure periods of controversy and public hatred. The most famous of these was the Suicide forest incident in 2018.
An established vlogger at the time, Logan Paul, made a video exploring the Aokigahara forest at the base of Mount Fuji. Internationally infamous as a suicide hotspot, this forest is said to be haunted by the innumerable souls that have killed themselves here. Paul and his friends entered the forest, preparing to spend the night. While in the forest, Paul and his friends came across the hanging body of an unidentified dead man. While shocked, they also made jokes and laughed. He is later recorded struggling to suppress a laugh.
While he did upload the video with a warning, he received heavy criticism over the incident. People all over the internet were outraged at the fact that he even uploaded a video with a dead person on YouTube. The jokes he made on camera only worsened the situation. To make matters worse, the majority of Logan Paul’s viewers are underage. The fact that he was exposing them to a sight this morbid with nothing more than a warning angered many. People all over the internet were calling for the removal of his channel from YouTube, and he also faced repercussions from the Japanese Government. Although he uploaded many apology videos, not everyone has forgiven him. Since then, however, Logan Paul has moved on from just vlogging. Now, he has his own podcast called THE IMPAULSIVE. He also forayed into the world of boxing, and wrestling where he signed with the WWE.
