I don’t know of anyone who hasn’t heard of the group Dude Perfect. They are all over YouTube and the internet in general. With over 54 million subscribers, I’d say its pretty safe to say that last sentence. If you haven’t for some reason, these guys do crazy trick shots, very inventive sports battles, stereotypes, and much more. The group consists of Tyler Toney, Cory and Coby Cotton, Garret Hilbert, and Cody Jones. They have teamed up with many different professional athletes such as Brodie Smith along with breaking many different Guinness World Records. 
From a Christian view, these guys have a pretty cool story. Tyler Toney, the founder of the group, grew up in Texas playing football in high school but didn’t continue his career in college. Instead, he went to Texas A&M to just focus on education. While there, he began looking for other Christian guys to hang out with. That is when he found the rest of the group. They ended up moving into a house together and set up a basketball hoop in the backyard. This is where it all began with there first video “Backyard Trick Shots”. From there it is history. They went on to create so many videos that certainly entertain a wide range of different people. They now have their own complex in Frisco Texas. Not only do they entertain but they have also reached out and given back to society through many different charities which include Make a Wish Foundation.
I love how they started small like most business then were able to grow to the size they are today. They were able to predict the next big thing by starting their journey at the beginning of the surge of YouTube stardom.
I love these guys! They make videos that are really engaging to watch and yet find ways to positively impact those around them. I think it is neat that this all came together by a few guys wanting to have friendship together in college; I never knew that!
Really cool to see their growth story, especially seeing how big they have become and the type of people and companies they have collaborated with. It is also cool to see grown men pursue such a different way of making money as opposed to traditional desk jobs!
Anybody who has every watched YouTube has probably seen these guys come up on the front page. Many people really enjoy their videos, but don’t know the story behind it. I’m glad you wrote about DudePerfect, they are such an awesome brand and the guys seem super genuine. Personally, my favorite videos are the stereotypes videos! They’re super fun and pretty true. I’m glad that they have experienced the type of growth they’ve had. Thanks for writing about them!
I love Dude Perfect. I use to watch them every day as a kid on youtube after school. They have really built up their brand and having fun doing it. I learned some good information about them in this article that I didn’t already know. Great Article.
