American PeopleYouTube PrankstersInstagram StarsAmerican MenGeorgia YouTubers Rise to FameSkunky ventured into the social-media arena through the now-defunct app 'Vine.' However, he was heavily backed up by his brother-in-law, who is a popular "YouTuber." Skunky made his 'Vine' debut in April 2015, with the videos titled 'How Girls be acting when they get alot of followers!' The video earned him moderate success, which made Skunky a little more confident about his potential as a comedy artist. He then continued creating clips for 'Vine' and earned around 100 thousand followers on the platform by October that year. By the time the application was taken down that year, he had earned more than 125 thousand 'Vine' followers. Skunky then turned to vlogging to continue entertaining people. He launched his 'YouTube' channel on January 29, 2016, and published the first video, 'SCORPION HOT SAUCE CHALLENGE,' the following month. The channel primarily hosts prank videos and other random vlogs.Recommended Lists:
