UA-cam has grown to be the largest video-sharing platform in the world by far, and today UA-cam is basically synonymous with Google. However, Google didn't actually create UA-cam; Google actually bought UA-cam for $1.65 billion in 2006. The three founders of UA-cam are Jawed Karim, Chad Hurley, and Steve Chen. So, what happened to the founders of UA-cam? Well, Jawed Karim continued his education after cashing out from UA-cam and created an incubator company called YVentures. Meanwhile, Chad Hurley served as UA-cam's CEO after the acquisition up until 2010. At this point, he also started an incubator company called AVOS systems. Finally, Steve Chen served as CTO of UA-cam after the acquisition before joining Chad at AVOS systems. This video explains what happened to UA-cam's founders and where Jawed Karim, Chad Hurley, and Steve Chen are today.

I never thought about it. I owe these guys a lot 😂😭 They changed the world. Thank you 🙏🏿
They deserve an award.
Oh shit Primm didn't expect to see you here. That Pootytang video was hilarious 😂
They some all stars ✨
Hey man! Big fan!!
Yes but they sold this platform to the devils
Summary: They created UA-cam, they sold UA-cam and they're living in peace.
Thanks,i was looking for summarization
Leaving UA-cam ftw guys
@Rowdy Jr they sold the company way before susan became ceo. they have no control after they sold it
@Rowdy Jr companies don't run on politics but on exploitations. buying politicians is cheap and again they were not on the board of yt or google. They didn't have the power to fire an employee technically after the left google and yt
@Rowdy Jr freedom is a word made by the americans to feed themselves horse when you can get a fine / jailed in some part of the us for not mowing your lawn. Nice freedom you got there buddy
Imagine being the first person to ever upload a UA-cam video. That is an accomplishment in itself.

I remember when UA-cam first came out, the quality of the video was so bad I was like this will never take off. How wrong was I, lol.
Hes a Chad? Is this how people speak nowadays? Lol

I almost can't believe how humble these founders are. They literally changed the world.
Now we have a evil women running it
Stevan chen also went a selective public highschool aswell.
It seems like Jawed Karim was the true founder since it stemmed from his idea and he was probably the one coding it at the very beginning. It also shows in his humble academic demeanour and his ventures in helping people after. He doesn't even seem bothered by the fact he got the least amount of money at all. True legend.
For real. It’s like he got stifled but atleast he’s using his blessings to bless more people. It’s funny how he went his own way and the rest kinda stayed in google and Facebook
The thing is, Karim went on to teach the AirBnB guys how to do well and that was huge, then he joined some of the big Paypal guys from back in the day at Palantir and big data has been doing extremely well for them, and so over time, he became just as rich as Steve by using his brain. That is what proves that he was the true entrepreneur and tech mind behind UA-cam. Chad failed over and over again in tech until he became a sports investor but that made him pretty decent money. Steve just went from being the lead code guy at UA-cam to being a lead code guy at Google, nothing amazing from him.
that is a well raised man.....
@@ghostbravo7127 Steve is more amazing than you'll ever be lol.
@@alphaomega9387 and who cares
Yo Karim is one dedicated man, dude went to get his masters even with millions
Yeah he could finally pay to do it
He also wanted to see the half-time show nip exposure of janet jackson so much, he created youtube to make sure we could have a place to see it.
Too bad current youtube has gone back against that ideals.
He’s a Muslim tho..
@@aaquibtayyabi I’m just saying.
@@planerunner4020 The word Muslim has a different meaning in different parts of the world, even if the sweaty middle eastern clerics try to control the narrative for the last 20 years.
Many western Muslims are very liberal and it's more like an philosophy, closer to Buddhism there rather than a strict dogma, take Dave Chappelle for example, he's Muslim but he also drinks, talks about sex and smokes.
Even in Indonesia, the practices are distinct by region, and let's be honest there are many outdates ideas in the Quran especially if you take everything literally.
Its crazy to think that these three guys didnt just change the internet, but also the world.
Yup, UA-cam is really a huge game changer.
@Angryperson I know, but anyone who would have made the first massive video sharing site would have changed the world too. These guys happened to be the first
They're not getting enough credit for it tho, they made such a big impact yet they're able to stay quiet and live in peace, this is something you'd only see in like anime.
Lol
@@ghazanjazz8689 maybe they want to live in peace but yes U need to find out if they got awards.
steve = asian technician
chad = extrovert CEO
kareem = humble frontman
they can make a movie about it like 3 idiots
lmao
Karim also half asian .his father from bangladesh .
Kareem is also asian
Kareem is the CEO of PayPal
@Rowdy Jr they meant hes half Asian as in only one of his parent is Asian
They didn't mean to say that Bangladesh isn't in Asia
I think so
Jawed Karim is a living legend. Extremely, criminally underrated. Thank you changing lives of millions across the globe with your idea. Take a bow. This is next level humbleness.
I spend 90% of my time in Internet on UA-cam... Thanks to Kareem, Chad & Steve ❤

These guys have changed many lives from there creation of UA-cam. We all owe these guys a BIG THANK YOU .
To anyone out there that want to invent something or pursue something don’t wait you never know how far it will go.
Watching this makes me realize that the 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s were some of the most genre defying decades of our lifetime. In those days, we use to look down at the nerds who can be put into college at age 11. Not really knowing when we use to ridicule these boys, they would change the world forever. Giving us access to something that is standard when applying for a job and other endless endeavours.

These guys had one amazing business idea that sorted them for life. Everything else didn't seem to gain much traction. Oh well. They can cry into their millions/billions! 😅
Not really there was a platform like youtube before that. What was amazing is how it was made and the constant updates as well as how the community could talk to there users.
UA-cam was not popular because it was created but because google advertised it and brought it to success. With google's influence and connection, youtube started to gain popularity by absorbing the user base that Google built. If youtube had not been bought by Google, Google might've been working with a different platform now and certainly would kill youtube. But regardless, UA-cam was great itself. Just hard to argue if UA-cam was really successful because of those people who created the idea and the foundation.
yea….
@@magahongkong4664 If that were true, Google would have created their own version, Not paid billions for it.

I went to Central High School like Jawed Karim and they never spoke about him, it’s like the school didn’t know who they educated 😭 that’s a big accomplishment to have a student with such status.
To be fair, it's weird to talk about achievements of alumni as advertisement. Like yes, we provided this guy his basic education, but we're partially claiming credit for something he achieved way later on in life
Maybe Cause Karim is a Bangladeshi Originated + A Sunni Muslim

I been rocking with UA-cam since 2005 and I can tell you after Chad and Steve left 2009/10 that’s when UA-cam changed. At first everything was on UA-cam, movies, tv shows, anything went. I guess they seen the hits the shows were getting and decided to bring out the streaming platforms.
These guys are legends! They’ve made the greatest invention since cars and cellphones. Look at us all right now. Where are we and what are we doing? We’re all on our cellphones or computers watching videos on YT. These guys changed the world!!

Man I wonder how they'd feel knowing we can't see the dislike count anymore
Jawed has responded to the removal on both the video that announced it and two other UA-camrs that talked about it. On his only video, he ended up updating description there expressing his thoughts on the matter and why he believes the removal, or more accurately, making dislikes a premium service only. (I say this because I can see the dislikes right now but my friends couldn't and it's due to me having premium.)
@@Hardrian_Hardrada_Cicero his account has been hacked a lot so it’s not known if it’s him who wrote that
@@Sweetnothing746 Please. If it were hacked then the account would've been vandalized. Jawed has changed the description on occasions and like this video here, has spoken out against Google's or UA-cam's unpopular decisions (such as Google+). So it is very likey that it is him.
This teaches us all a lesson. Money can’t buy you happiness. After each one of them sold UA-cam, they went back to the normal life with peace and quite.
They can life peace because they sell a damn Yotube.
They could go back to a normal life because they already made a lot of money. While there a certain things money cannot buy, it is a basic necessity if you want to live a smooth life.
I sort of noticed Logically answered is uploading quite frequently nowadays. I LOVE IT!

It's incredible that we were all around for the beginning of this insanely huge platform.
Lol
Not everyone
Timing. It was all just perfect timing. As with all great things. Right place, right people, right time.
And then I get call of duty timing over here
Incredible. When YT was founded I was 16 years old. I remember watching videos on the net between 2002 and 2004 but it was horrible and there wasn't nearly as much information available on the net as is today. Also the quality wasn't great either. Now I realize that I'm a real time witness of all of this.
Imagine having the possibiliy to retire before 30 as a billionare but decide to be a teacher

Nice video. These guys are legends and we owe them big time 💯
UA-cam was the best video upload site when they came out. There were only about 3 sites that I could find to upload videos at that time, and the other sites required that you format your video by size and dimensions before uploading it. UA-cam took out that huge middle step and formatted your video for you, which made their uploads way easier than the other sites. I don't remember the other sites names. This was near the beginning of digital cameras, before they were to norm. It would be cool to hear about what they were thinking when they came up with the idea for their site and how they decided to made it how it was. They even gave you a little web account to design and keep your site and videos. They got popular because their product was way better than the others at that time.
I think this is authentic! ❤️
This was actually a pretty fun video to watch I didn't even know who they were I knew google bought youtube but it's always nice to know who the creators were
I have to say one really cool thing, is I graduated from the same high-school that Chad Hurley graduated from Twin Valley.
What are the chances haha
I still remember seeing a magazine cover stating how Google bought UA-cam and needing so psyched for them as a kid cuz I had just started watching videos a few months before and loved the site
I go to the high school Steve used to go (IMSA) and they are so fucking proud to have a co founder of youtube as an alumni
Kudos to karim that guy became the first guy to upload video on UA-cam had some share started his own company walk away from the limelight achieve his goal got his degree now having a perfect life 🤩🔥❤️
Thank you these three legends. With them to be happy wherever they are now. True legends
What a nice interesting video! Thanks for this!
Man I wonder if these guys hate how strict UA-cam has become
It's crazy how these videos are just lots of videos of other people stitched together while talking about the topic and occasionally putting in footage of the real people.

Great achievement ofc by these three boys. However, there were several video uploading platforms at the time, around 2005-2006. Some obscure, some pretty decent. Huge credit to the founders of UA-cam, but we have to be honest, they were very lucky also that Google picked them.
Not really, UA-cam was the most googled video sharing platform at the time Google bought it. They were already a mile ahead of all competition. After Google took over, that distance was increased tenfold.
