Career
Before creating content on his SethEverman YouTube channel, Everman had gone viral on multiple occasions ever since 2006. Many of these videos didn't show his face, but one of them that did was a viral video titled "Nyan Cat 10 HOURS REACTION VIDEO! (yes, I actually watched it for 10 hours)" published on 6 December 2011 on a channel called TheGamePro. The video received over 1.5 million views and was re-uploaded onto his SethEverman channel titled "my old secret videos" on 3 April 2018, accumulating another 2 million views.[5]
In September 2015, Everman published a mashup on his Tumblr account of Drake's "Hotline Bling" combined with Nintendo 64 classics such as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Super Mario 64 and Mario Kart.[6][7] This post was his first viral video under his SethEverman name, accumulating over 600,000 notes on the platform. In November 2015, he uploaded his first video on the SethEverman YouTube channel titled "How to make a Zelda necklace".[8] The first video to go viral on the SethEverman channel was "When you're a classical pianist but you listened to hip hop once", posted 13 February 2016. In the video he turns Beethoven's "Für Elise" into Eminem's "Mockingbird" and "Moonlight Sonata" into Dr. Dre's "Still D.R.E.".[9] The video has received over 26 million views as of 4 April 2021.[10]
In November 2019, Everman became the person with the most liked YouTube comment and the first comment to hit 1 million likes.[11] The comment reads "i'm the bald guy" and was left under the music video for Billie Eilish's "bad guy". The comment currently has 3.2 million likes.[12][13]
