David Dobrik has officially returned to YouTube on June 15th, following his two-month hiatus from social media after being "canceled" over misconduct allegations.

The 24-year-old YouTuber got into serious trouble after orchestrating and participating in a skit that resulted in one of his fans being assaulted by Dom Zeglaitis, a member of the Vlog Squad.

Soon after, Jeff Wittek, a former member of the Vlog Squad, released a documentary on YouTube titled, "Do not try this", regarding his life-threatening injuries that were allegedly caused by David Dobrik's careless antics.

Following the recent controversies in March 2021, David Dobrik went on a social media hiatus after posting two apologies.

David Dobrik returns to YouTube

On Tuesday afternoon, David Dobrik broke the internet by returning to YouTube with a video titled, "SURPRISING MY FRIENDS!!".

On June 14th, David Dobrik and his squad were seen out in Hawaii, as a fan posted a selfie of the two.

The 4 minute and 20 second video detailed the vlogger surprising the Vlog Squad, including now-reconciled Jeff Wittek, with a trip to Hawaii. Afterwards, he showcased a compilation of events that occurred during the trip, ending the vlog by saying he would now be posting every Tuesday.

The video also included a quick update on Corinna's OF page, with her claiming that she had already made a million dollars from the first day.

Many even went as far as to comment on how "conflicting" his return felt, given that his fans both missed him, yet despised his previous actions.

Fans had mixed reactions on Twitter as well.

Although David Dobrik's return has been anticipated for a while now, the vlog basically confirmed rumors from back in May that he would return in June.

While he has only posted one vlog since his comeback, Vlog Squad fans are excitedly awaiting the next one, with the following ones to come each Tuesday.
