My favorite Youtube channels in 2017 (and my favorites last year too)

Over the course of several years, Youtube has popularised such things as the “Prank Video” and more recently, this crazy shit. What? Why is that a thing?

Anyway, here are some of my favorite channels on Youtube, take a look:

• Binging with Babish

You're about to be inspired by this man's ulinary whimsies. He cooks the food we've seen in made on TV! Cool right? Check out the Strudel from Inglorious Basterds and the Goodfellas Prison Sauce! It all looks rather scrumptious to me!

• Bad Lip Reading

Nothing is more hilarious than when somebody cleverly puts words into other people's mouths.

Well, this is exactly what this channel is about! They've already knocked out some really unforgettable classics, such as this Oh, and this. I can't breathe.

• CrashCourse

This is an entertaining and truely brilliant channel. Started up by two brothers, CrashCourse introduces the viewer to weekly videos that cover several interesting course topics. 

Everything from Politics, Philosophy,Chemistry, Literature, Biology, Anatomy, History.... phew, the list goes on! The polished animations and fluent visual effects only add to the fun!

FACT: one of the brothers, John Green, wrote the book "The Fault in Our Stars."

• Epic Rap Battles of History

What would happen if Cleopatra and Marilyn Monroe met in person? Apparently, this would happen.
Epic Rap Battles of History pits renowned celebrities, historical figures and fictional folks against each other in a rap off. Who won? Whose next? You decide.

ANOTHER FACT: Famous celebrities have appeared in some of the videos, including Snoop Dog and "Weird Al" Yankovic.

• H3H3 Productions  

Hila and Ethan are a magnificent husband-and-wife team. Ethan's zany mannerisms and Hila's endearing awkwardness in front of the camera combine into an relatable, yet powerful online force. They basically take the piss out of today's culture and critique it on the daily, among other things. Great moves, keep it up, proud of you. 

• Kaitlyn Dobrow 

Long story short, Kaitlyn has no arms and no legs. Unfortunately, she contacted meningitis at a young age and her limbs had to be amputated in order to save her. Yet, she can still apply make-up really, really well. In fact, she can do the whole make-up thing better than me.
 

• Pewdiepie

Jokes. Nope.

• Primitive Technology

In the Aussie outback, a lone man silently builds some really awesome shit, only using some primitive, hand-made tools. No power drills or concrete mixers in sight, just good ol' mother nature providing her bounty. Seriously, that's a pretty neat hut.

• Zero Punctuation by Ben Yahtzee Croshaw (The Escapist)

Since 2008, Yahtzee's reviewed games,with a strong emphasis on rapid-fire sentences and over-the-topcriticism. He pretty much despises everything (except Silent Hill 2) and the simple but quirky cartoon animations illustrate the utter blandness of most of his gaming experiences. Expect profanity and dark humour.
