“It was a dream [back then] to reach a thousand subscribers, like, wow, there are a thousand people paying attention to my content.” Today, German Garmendia has earned YouTube gold with a subscriber count across his channels tallying over 100 million and over 23 billion lifetime views. BILLION. That’s the entire population of this earth watching his videos three times over. Even Guiness World Records has taken note of this champion, crowning him with the title of “Most subscribers for a non-English language gaming channel on YouTube (May, 2025)”. Yet somehow this charming gamer is still as down to earth as the day he started, and is still humbled at the recognition. “When you see someone’s face light up when they see you, that’s why I’m still motivated to do this.”
