Facts
Fr just watch the vid and stop pausing every 3 seconds to make some pointless comment 😴
I’ve been watching the Sidemen ever since 2015 and it’s honestly amazing that they’ve adapted to the type of content I and others want to watch. Their dynamic is so good as well that you want to keep watching no matter what they do.
i still remeber my first sidemen video. which was the playing Sardines in a mansion, with JJ hiding in a theatre room playing sidemen videos. And JJ fell asleep
I was watching vikk first with his montages. Then I found jj and Simon. I feel like I knew of one of the Cals but not sure.
It’s amazing how they came together and are still amazing with little to no dilemma
Hmm i tot sidemen were made on 2016?
@@sherlock4791 the sidemen channel was, but sidemen was actually formed back in 2013
Nah I think you probably went to a private school and failed to grow up. Their content lacks growing up with their audience and honestly peaks when a member of beta squad is in their videos. No Sidemen bangers without guests in the last year.
Some notes for anyone who’s interested:
-They were never “sidemen” to another group, Simon was the sidemen to JJ as he showed up and was the cameraman in many videos and then Tobi was the sideman in Zerkaa’s videos. Once they gained Ethan they were throwing around group names and decided on Sidemen due to this fact.
-The main sidemen channel only existed to prove to UA-cam that they could do well with a UA-cam original and UA-cam wanted a main channel to put it on rather than the individual channels.
I'm pretty sure I've watched them say it's because they're all sidemen to jj
It’s because they all said they were sidemen to JJ
That’s called a joke
@@Dannywesthead what was the joke?
The name originated on GTA when JME and Ethan came up with the name "The Ultimate Sidemen" because JJ had bailed on a few recording sessions in a row...
Calling Vik out as a Gamer Boy is like peak Comedy Lmao. But now he glowed up
sense?
there’s so many good british youtubers , would definitely recommend stephan tries and willne
Stephen but yes
Stephen Tries would make Stanz DIE laughing
And ChrisMD
Don't forget Calfreezy and Callux
Niko Omilana
The sidemen is such a crazy phenomenon. They all had very football or gaming centric backgrounds all those years ago, and I was never a big fan of football nor the games they played like FIFA, GTA or CoD so I didn't watch them while everyone else in school would rave and meme about them, but then as 'the sidemen' they moved away from gameplay and I got to know their personalities better. Now they're one of my favourite channels, but they're still mainstream enough that I'll see them mentioned in the strangest places.
The unusual part of that is how most channels that are as mainstream as the sidemen aren't 'cool' to like. Like Mr beast does crazy things and it's interesting to discuss, but to call yourself a Mr beast fan isn't going to win you popularity points. Being a sidemen fan though is equivalent to saying you watch love island. (Unsure the US equivalent)
I always find it interesting how Americans are so in their own bubble that even some American youtubers and streamers, who work in the same field as the sidemen, often don't know about them and how huge they are
I think the key to their success is two things:
- consistency with uploads, they haven't missed a sidemen Sunday ever I think, and also upload consistently on the other channels
- they are just a bunch of real genuine friends hanging out and doing several different activities and filming it , cuz at the end of the day, it's their dynamic and banter that makes the videos interesting
technically they only missed one sunday bc they had to upload on the monday bc of editing issues i think
been watching these guys for over a decade, genuinely had the largest cultural impact on me and my generation in the UK
It’s not good versus bad. It’s cheap vs expensive. A holiday/vacation is what you make of it.
I'm a 32 year old man in America who has watched every single sidemen video that has ever released. I was a day one. Even I still watch them. I don't even have cable though, I choose youtube content over cable every day of the week lol... I was watching KSI back when he only had like 100k subs. It's really incredible what these boys, now men, have become. Watching their glow up makes me think about what the fuck I been doing all these years lol
They recently ranked their favourite sidemen Sundays of the year in a tier list. You could probably react to more of what they consider great vids
The sidemen have been such a staple of youtube for everyone i knew while i was growing up that it seems weird for people to have not heard of them
Stephen tries on stanz reactions is what everyone needs for 2023
The fact you don't know who sticky Vicki is is so funny 😂
She literally just puts various huge objects inside of her, and then pulls them back out
this was very informative as the only thing I knew about the sidemen before was that my dad used to babysit one of them. Like I met one of the sidemens dad on a beach, got invited to his house for a barbeque, and didn't find out till after I said no who it was.
which sideman?
@@Kestrel342 Harry! my dads from guernsey and everyone knows everyone there
that's so cool
@@Kestrel342 Definitely wasn't Ethan
@@dennisddt1146 bruh💀
this is like showing ur dad ur fav yt channel
Never thought I’d see stanz and sidemen crossover in the multiverse
I searched Sticky Vicky up on the internet, worst mistake of my life.
Sameee
😂😂😂
It's so funny that Caanths called Callux and Calfreezy "Sidemen adjacent", that's the exact phrase I use to describe them.
Enjoyed this vid, great to see your reaction to the group! 🙌 Been watching KSI especially since the middle of 2012, and the Sidemen on their separate channels since the group formed in 2013, watching their content fairly consistently since I saw the first vlogs from Miniminter and Vikkstar when they'd moved into the first Sidemen House! Basically grown up in parallel, been cool to follow most of the journey! 😂 Dodford does a great job with an overview of them for sure! Really rate his research and style of content! 👌 That holiday video has remained one of my favourite main channel videos from them to this day! 🔥🔥
You need to watch Stephen tries roast of 2022. Amazing English UA-camr/comedian
I been watching since 2013 when I was able to engage with their channels more and I’m so happy to see how this has gone
Same here, who was the first sidemen you watched. Mine was Simon through his FIFA 14 series and then I found out who the rest were when I watched his GTA vids
I think part of the Sidemen's success is that their audience grew with them, myself included, as opposed to them still being kids. Imo it means that the audience was more receptive to the change in the content because they grew out of it too
What an unexpected but welcomed crossover lmao
2:00 They have said before that the name sidemen comes from an inside joke that Simon & Tobi started.
Simon was seen as JJ’s sideman & Tobi was seen as Josh’s sideman, so in the Skype group chats they would joke about being the sidemen and it caught on.
Ngl I feel old...I've been watching the sidemen for basically a decade now ( I discovered them through Simon's FIFA 14 series) and it's so nice to see people in the U.S. finally know who they are where instead back in the day in my middle school and highschool times it was only me and or any of the guys who were into Football in school back in the day that knew who they were. Started at 12 and now I'm 20 jeez...
it was so fun in the uk since everyone knew who they were from pretty much the start and now we've all grown up with them 🥲
I grew up watching them and as a 26 year old woman im suprised that i still watch every sidemen sunday
i literally been watching these guys before they were even the sidemen
The end is so funny to watch knowing Ethan has a baby at home now that definitely screams at 2am
2:10
Watching Chat guess E-Boys, Faze and 100 Thieves is so funny lmao. The Sidemen were around YEARS before them. Especially the E-Boys.
Been watching Sidemen since their conception- love them all, carries UK UA-cam
stanz really called ksi "this guy" 💀💀💀
I am a viewer from 2013. I started with Simon, Josh and Tobi back in the FIFA days, before the they were the sidemen and they haven’t changed that much in terms of their personalities, apart from growing older and maturing a bit
2:01 I dont know what he was on about, they saw the crew and vanos group as like inspiration but were not their sidemen. it comes from Simon being jjs sidemen and tobi being joshes sideman as josh and JJ were by far the biggest when they started they group and Ethan and vikk joined and harry a bit later
Stanz you're missing out. Sidemen videos are incredible. You should start watching them! Loved you learning about them.
Loving the super Mario galaxy music in the beginning
Harry wasn’t done justice in this video
It's true, I'd watch them forever.
You have to watch some of the Chrismd videos featuring Harry, Will and Stephen, those are great.
Does anyone know what VOD this is from?
While their Europe holiday is their most popular video I would have shown their Pub Golf video, that shit is peak Sideman banter.
If stanz watched the most recent blind dating he would be literally in shock
Still feel sorry for Ethan for the holidays still 😂
can I find this VOD anywhere? His twitch channel seems to not have VODs pre-2023 rn
More!!!
I wanna watch him react to some other Sidemen videos in full.
Is there a way to watch his whole reaction
Ayo Stanz forget what that other guy said, pause as much as you like
Out of curiousity I watched the star wars show, and yes, it did include a storm trooper fucking princess leia whilst riding a hover board, with Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana playing in the background. I wish I was joking.
new arc for stanz, the sidemen?
2:00 so far so good but they have said themselves a few times they called themselves the sidemen bc they were like jj’s sidemen since he was the biggest already at that point but josh was a close second back when he was big in CoD, then Vik blew up on minecraft after
why are Stanz videos the only videos that I lag on
The last part 🤣
Stanz this guying KSI is crazy
You did Vik dirty 😂😭😭😭
The girl that walks in talking down on vik is so peak the dude is breaded beyond belief now
U gotta watch the road trip
I'd love to see a shallow dive on BoyBoy, he's the dude from that I Did a Thing video that got punched and his videos are great
200£ ist the budget for the guy planning…
Im so glad Stanz got introduced through a holiday video, I feel like everyone who starts reacting to sidemen starts with the tinder ones but these are their best imo
I am shocked that stanz didn't know who sidemen were
Is there a vod for this stream available anywhere?
on stanz's twitch channel, its the video from 12 days ago.
6:15 to this day people still asking what did harry say lol
Listen, Ethen is up there as the best Sideman, but it's reductionist think you can pick any one of them out as the best. It's the combination that makes it.
The fact I felt the need to scream that into the void like this says something about me... 🤔
Did anyone else imagine that Sticky Vicky would be 78?
i bet hes done this for them to react to it and get a shout out. Totally what i would do lmao
At around 2:00 pretty sure it's cuz simon was kinda jj's sideman and tobi was the same for josh
This guy is jarring
does anyone have the link to the vod?
Who is the guy in call with you on all your recent Videos
Vikk is actually England's best footballer. This is a known fact.
Honestly wouldn't be surprised if this video ends up on SidemenReacts or something.
Look at w2s best moments specifically. He is the last UA-camr unafraid to let the intrusive thoughts out
The part about them lasting forever is true in a realistic terms, of course when they are all retired that doesent count anymore, but the reason they could last for so longs is loyal fanbase. The sidemen have been uploading vids for over 10 years and initially their content was watched mainly by youer teens, meaning many many fans have literally spennt their childhood "around" the sidemen, meaning to some extent the conent is irellevant. Of course if the content gets worse they inevitably wouldent grow anymore but the loyal fans will definately stay as they are there, parasocially put, to "spend time with their friends". (Im not saying their fans are delusional and think they are friends, as that would mean i am delusional, but i think this was a good way to phrase what i was trying to say)
This would be more fun if you had someone that knows more about the Sidemen to guide you through their channel
they are still going because they are good friends before everything, other groups, especially in the USA, feel more like colleagues
I think the lady meant bitchin, but that is entirely a guess and i have no sources
He needs to watch Harrys cancelled, funny moments
I feel like we missed the FIFA hype
rip sticky vicky
the sidemen channel was created for the charity football match btw everything jj said in the ryan higa podcast was nothing but waffle
Guys you should watch The Sidemen Among Is in Real life! That’s just something 😂
bro lives under the rock smh
Believe me lads, Sticky Vicky is free.
The Sidemen are the real GOATS 🙌🏻
The sidemen and storror are the UK goats
I'd take a Motel 6 over a Super 8 tbh
How can you spend your life online and be a streamer and NOT know GTA 5 is a multiplayer game 🤯
TheBurntChip is also really good
Cant wait for the sidemen reacts ep
I feel like the holiday comparison video would have been way worse if the budget team weren't allowed to spend money. The vibes of the video would be way off if they were in benidorm and they had to be like "oh no we have no money for drinks this is so sad" especially since they're probably seeing fans everywhere. The vibes are way better because they could just buy people drinks and actually make an honest attempt at having fun where they are.
3:25 i mean I'd do the same if i had jjs haircut
you should do a tgf bros one
Ngl this type of video would probably just be better if it didn’t have the other guy explaining it and he just enjoyed the content
You should check out max fosh, niko & Stephen tries. I think you’ll enjoy their content!
Did a deep dive on max fosh already (check out the playlist linked at the end of the vid!) and I just had a deep dive into Stephen tries live on twitch that will be a video soon!
I also checked out Niko in a shallow dive, also on my YT channel :)
Fantastic video Staniel ⭐️❤️
Never heard of them
You need to watch harrys best parts
Should show him the tinder vids.
watch a Harry (w2s) cancelled compilation and he may become your favourite
He's need to do a deeper dive like the deepest of dives
