HowToBasic is an anonymous "how-to" video content creator on YouTube who has amassed an impressive 17 million subscribers with his misleading instructional videos. One of his most popular videos, "How To Quickly Get a Six Pack," has garnered over 136 million views since its release in October 2016. He launched his YouTube channel in December 2011 and has been known for his prolific output, once creating about 100 videos in a single day. His videos often feature him throwing and smashing eggs, a signature element that led him to become the owner of his own chicken farm. His humor is quite random, as demonstrated by the eclectic pictures on his Instagram page, which includes quirky images like a hotdog doorknob.
