About
Michael Reeves is a YouTuber, streamer, and boxer, that is part of OfflineTV, with fellow streamer Pokimane and current girlfriend Lilypichu among others. Michael Reeves is known for his videos focusing on robotics, coding, IRL streams, and his recent boxing match at Creator Clash.
Online Start
He first started his YouTube account on April 15th, 2016, but it wasn't until April 17th, 2017 that he uploaded his first YouTube video[1], which was titled and about 'The Robot That Shines a Laser in Your Eye' which went on to get over 4.8 million views in five years (shown below).
Michael would then continue to create videos of a similar nature, collaborating often with fellow inventor William Osman, which culminated in his massively successful follow-up video 'Taser Machine Fixes My Swearing Problem' which was uploaded[2] on February 17th, 2018, and gained over 5.7 million views in four years (shown below).
Online Presence
Reeves continued to enjoy a steadily growing online presence within robotics and niche content circles due to his chaotic energy and wacky inventions used for impractical uses. This changed, however, on March 6th, 2019, when he uploaded the video[3] 'A Robot That Picks Tomatoes Out of Your Salad', in which he not only crossed the 10 million view barrier with a massive 12.9 million in three years, but he also created his first widely used meme, I'm the Elon Musk of Bad Ideas (shown below).
This helped his brand to continue to spread and grow, which had him join Offline TV officially in December 2019, putting him into streaming and IRL streams, which were often screen captured and used for various memes. A memorable moment that went viral was when Michael Reeves gave Pokimane 55 gallons of Crude Oil during the Offline TV Christmas Stream[4], with the clip being uploaded on December 25th, 2020, where it went on to gain over 4.2 million views in two years (shown below).
During Creator Clash, Michael Reeves fought the investment and savings YouTuber Graham Stephen, defeating him by TKO[5] in the second round after Graham signaled to the judge to end the fight (shown below). The two have since appeared together on Graham Stephens podcast and buried the hatchet, and Michael has said multiple times that he will not be entering the ring again.
