Collaborative efforts are beautiful. The ability of two or more people to work together seamlessly has given us many great things. In entertainment too, many collaborative efforts have yielded some of the best works of entertainment in human history. YouTube, which is one of the leading platforms for entertainment and creative works in general, features collaborations as a prominent part of the process for many popular YouTubers. This was the formula used by Alex Burriss and Roi Fabito to create one of the leading channels on YouTube, but like most collaborations, a time comes when it comes to an end, and for the duo that ran Wassabi Productions that day was January 2016, when the other half of the group, Roi Fabito decided to leave the channel and pursue other interests leaving Alex to stand alone and come to be known as Alex Wassabi.

Today, a group that started with six boys is left with just Alex Wassabi to run the channel. Learn more about him and his journey as a YouTuber so far.
