10. The Try Guys – what happened
There really is no drama like a YouTuber cheating drama. After leaving Buzzfeed in 2018 for the greener pastures of their own company based on YouTube, The Try Guys’ whole schtick was doing something new, whether that was testing sperm counts or trying on corsets, in every video. There were four of them, Keith Habersberger, Ned Fulmer, Zach Kornfeld, and Eugene Lee Yang.
Then things got messy. In September, the company announced Fulmer was out. His merch was nixed and he no longer appeared in videos, but the cast continued on like nothing had happened. Finally, the group sat down and said Fulmer had been fired for having an affair with a coworker. Ariel Fulmer, the ex-star’s wife, had regularly appeared in videos with the cast.
The Try Guys’ apology video, if you could call it that, was viewed over 11 million times. The swirling rumors surrounding Fulmer’s departure set alight the internet for such a long time, that even the most dull explanation was like candy for some fans.
