American YouTuber and Twitch star RaccoonEggs soared to fame with his gaming commentary, especially on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and his satirical “How To” videos. He initially used a raccoon mask but later posted a “face reveal” video. From late 2019, he went on a hiatus for almost 2 years. He later explained how he had been living without a permanent home or a stable internet connection.
Early Life
US-born Raccoon Eggs took this unique pseudonym because he often joked with his friends about the possibility of raccoons laying eggs. His real name is Ezra.
Social Media Career
RaccoonEggs launched his YouTube channel on August 8, 2015. In January 2016, he posted his first YouTube video, MLG RACCOONS, showing real raccoons running. He later shot to fame with his comedic gaming commentary on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and his “How To” videos. The channel now has over 2.5 million subscribers.
He is also popular on Twitch, as RaccLive. He is present on Instagram as crackoon though he hasn’t posted anything. Some of his most popular videos on YouTube have been WHY I LOVE CS: GO SURF and SLEEP DEPRIVED RAINBOW SIX.

After uploading his last video on his primary YouTube channel on August 9, 2019, RaccoonEggs went on a long hiatus from both YouTube and Twitch for almost 2 years. On January 11, 2021, he made a TwitLonger post, saying he had severe allergic reactions from moving seven times within 3 years. He had been living in an Airbnb with bad internet connection since October 2020 and thus had not been able to post videos. He thus wished to take a break from social media until he got a permanent home.

On July 4, 2022, he posted a new YouTube video, I'M BACK (sorta), explaining he planned to mostly post Twitch streams and not upload videos on YouTube due to health issues. He also stated that his streams would have him talking in chat rather than gaming. His video also featured a gaming montage with JC the Caster.
