Evo Mihaylov Nicholas Newell after grade a under a would grow a following of over
3.5 million subscribers and over 437 million views on YouTube love video
games man video games were my childhood but it has changed so much over the
years now the graphics pretty much look realistic nowadays right always playing
video games but when you look like a drunk 4 year old huh designed the
characters after grade a under a would have a subreddit dedicated jest to him
with 7,000 members still actively talking about him to this day
so if I've concisely made my point in two thousand words why are you gonna
forced me to write 3,000 words after grade a under a what happy for wondering
is he dead too which he'd make a video
greedy under a was able to build a massive following on YouTube using
Microsoft Paint Windows Movie Maker and recording audio and either his phone or
OBS at the time of this recording he's got over 3.5 million subscribers and
almost half a billion total views on YouTube
but his last upload came on March 24th 2019 throughout his long youtube career
he's gone on hiatus and come back a few times but this may be the end for him
after all aside from dealing with health and
personal family issues which he's discussed in previous videos it seems
when fans started harassing his real-life friends and did whatever they
could define gray day he was ready to call it quits in this video we're going
to talk about great his rise to YouTube stardom and his sudden disappearance
here on where are they now what's going on guys I'm your host gern Steen and in
today's video we'll be talking about the incredibly funny and wild gray day under
a now this man's YouTube career has been quite a wild one ranging from making
videos about everyday problems to some serious YouTube drama to this day his
channel still gets close to a hundred thousand views per day even though he
hasn't uploaded a video in four months clearly his content had a never lost an
impact on the YouTube community but his most recent hiatus has people wondering
if he's ever going to come back we're gonna be covering that and some more
here for you on where are they now but before we do that I got a trivia
question for you guys I want to know how did gray day come up with his name in
the first place gray day under a you guys gotta let me know in the
comments down below and we'll cover that as well at the end of this video great a
under a was born Ram Caravaggio on October 6 1988 somewhere in England now
unfortunately I can't say for sure there are theories it was northern England but
this guy likes to keep his life very very private
in fact as many of you guys know he wouldn't reveal his face or identity
until about three years after getting into the YouTube game when he hit the
two million subscriber mark it's believed he studied at Imperial College
in London for four years and went on to teach mathematics but would get fired
from his job after the head of the math department and great aides didn't see
eye to eye Grady Underwood joined YouTube on
January 31st 2013 but wouldn't upload his first video
titled nine things I hate about the barbershop until March 23rd 2013 which
sauce on my birthday - relevant to this video but if you guys wanted to send me
any gifts that'd be the day now at the time of this recording his very first
video has clocked in over 4 million views and is still getting new comments
to this day but this would just be the start of a very successful YouTube
career for the British native the video that would help granade grow his
following would be his video girly drinks versus manly drinks all of the
video itself would be uploaded on April 8th 2013
it wouldn't actually blow up until they got popular in a subreddit gaining close
to 3,000 up votes overnight greatest falling would significantly grow leading
him to produce more content and eventually pursuing working on YouTube
full-time if you went to a restaurant or did something and it was bitter you
would complain why would anyone want something that's so big top it's called
beta aside from his comedic videos great I would also make videos going after
other youtubers such as keemstar Nicole Arbour and ray william johnson to name a
few calling them out for things like
plagiarism or just straight-up lying gray day would continue producing more
content uploading quite regularly which would allow him to grow a large
following all of grey day's videos we do quite well getting millions of views per
video it seemed everything was going well for the guy until he made a two
part series in regards to pewdiepie and the wall street journal scandal where
the wall street journal was taken some of his media out of context
following the part 2 of the series which was posted on
eleven 2017 grading would take a bit of a break from YouTube to return after his
two-month hiatus on May 22nd 2017 with a video title that is grade a under a debt
in brackets where the F had my bin in this video he explains and he'll be
focusing more on twitch than YouTube but will still be making videos on a regular
basis he also briefly touches on health issues and personal stuff but again made
it clear he's a private guy and wanted to keep specifics to himself followings
alleged return greatly under a would once again go on a hiatus not post in
another video until September 20th of 2017 there was some help to handfuls of
families sprinkle in some others as well mix it all up put it in an oven of 420
degrees for four or five months and the end result was me becoming can depressed
great a wooden post for about a year in a few months after that I voted for the
first time since that video on January 1st 2019 he then uploaded two more
videos in the following weeks giving his fans hope that maybe he'd be back for
good unfortunately after those two videos he leave again coming back to
this most recent video posted on March 24 2019 why we all hate valentines day
and brackets tiny bit late let's turn this mother looks right these are not
gifts for women right this is future guilt trip insurance for men since
posting that video gray day has gone completely ghosts now I've got a ton of
research online and I even reached out to the guy on two different emails that
I was able to find so no surprise he didn't get back to me but what I can
tell you is he's most likely trying to lead a normal life and possibly teaching
again I can't say for sure what he's doing for an income but he still does
have a store online where he could purchase his branded clothing and its
trademark 2019 so he's still obviously making money with his brand on top of
all this take it from what you will but in a subreddit from about a year ago a
user with the name boxing wolf on reddit outlined a well-thought-out recap of
gray day's life after YouTube now I'm not going to read the entire thing as it
is quite long but in short he believes great a retired after YouTube changed
their policies and grade found it frustrating that his channel has turned
into a drama news source in a sense he also cites his sickness as a possible
reason as well as financial troubles or all of the above did your head mate nice
car should be a sport raaah purchase not rotted okay
rollercoaster someone actually responded to that reddit comment with an alleged
email conversation they had with grade a under a now again I can't say 100% for
sure whether or not this is actually from grade a but based on the language
used it seems like it very well could be him now before I read parts of this I
will say it's dated from June 20th 2018 and grade a has posted since that being
said I do genuinely believe there's truth to a lot he says so here goes he
starts by talking about how YouTube isn't fulfilling as a hobby anymore and
that family and work have taken a great deal of focus away from Internet related
stuff he goes on to say thinking of ideas for new videos feels more like a
chore aside from making and editing the videos and he was going to make a video
explaining to all of this but now that it's been almost a year again keep in
mind that this was from back in June of 2018 so at that point his last upload
was in September of 2017 he thought most people were able to
figure it out for themselves that he was officially done he does however say he
might spontaneously make videos every few months or years which he has done
since this was posted but would no longer be doing weekly uploads now
before I continue I will say gray days next three uploads were all two weeks
apart on January 1st January 16th and February 3rd so maybe he thought about
coming back and then realized it wasn't the right time or he really was done for
good I love my parents man it is hard for me not to not only did they get me
bombers for Christmas every year Kim Kardashian's tape how did you know
grandma now in the reddit post which includes the email conversation greater
continues by saying he's now trying to live a normal life and by the time he
went on his hiatus the channel was draining him regardless of what content
he made people continue in about drama religion and by abandoning it it's one
less burden weighing on him while he deals with real-life stuff he caps off
the entire message by talking about how people started tracking down his
real-life friends on Facebook to ask his whereabouts and someone even found him
on eBay to ask him what's going on which is where he decided to draw the line it
got to a point where he could no longer have much of a personal life and finally
he says he's blocking the person who emailed him not because he's mad but
because he's just I quote further cutting ties from a hobby that he
doesn't like anymore now we'll leave the actual link from that whole email chain
in the description below feel free to check it out if you
guys want to read the whole thing now again I can't guarantee for sure that
that's actually from grade a but it seems pretty legit based on all the
information given and on top of all this well it wouldn't come to a surprise that
the new copyright claims but also poses an issue or frustrating topic for grade
a since going on his hiatus and returning YouTube changed a lot of their
policies and a ton of gradates older videos he includes music such as The
Undertaker's theme song a Christmas jingle and the instrumentals from taking
me out to the ballgame to name a few now in his video is brainy under a dead
where he actually uses the Undertaker's theme song he even wrote in the
description I quote this is directly from his description by the way probably
doesn't help that I'm using copyrighted music and this is probably gonna get
claimed and make me literally $0 but oh baby
Undertaker's theme it's so good so it's not like he didn't know I mean the man's
good on YouTube long enough he definitely knows the ins and outs but
that means he also came to terms that it's just another hurdle he'd have to
get over while making his content if you wanted to keep making money from the
platform so listen up Oh correct companies in this video I'm gonna
quickly go over some actual mistakes that ol chrix made for me in the past
right and then I'm gonna tell you once and for all how to fix Oh correct so to
wrap up it seems like Renee under a might actually be done on YouTube for
good obviously we can't say for sure because he has taken break from YouTube
in the past with one of his longest breaks being almost a year and a half so
maybe he'll continue to sporadically post videos when he feels inspired but
as of now I wouldn't really count on it now in regards to what he's currently
doing well we could assume it's something to do with teaching maybe
mathematics because that's what he went to school for and that was his previous
job but again there's no way to confirm because he's keeping his personal life
to himself he made it clear he never wanted to be famous or be in the
spotlight and he does still make profit from his merchandise so if you guys want
to show the man some love and support him go about one of his t-shirts they're
actually pretty funny but it seems we'll just have to wait and
see what happens with the man himself maybe he'll make a surprise comeback
maybe he'll post every now and then there's really no way to tell now to
answer that trivia question how to gradate get his name well it turns out
he was actually quite a good student getting straight A's in school but he
also considered himself an underachiever after not being able to get a job right
after graduating alright guys hope you enjoyed this one
