But the biggest cut of Caspar’s videos today are interviews with popular celebrities.
Early years
He was born ay Caspar Richard George Lee on April 24, 1994 in London in England but has been raised in South Africa by his parents Emily Riordan and Jonathan Lee.
His parents moved to South Africa when he was just a young kid.
He has spent his childhood playing in towns named Knysna and Durban. He was a student at Crawford College in La Lucia and he was very good at school.
He has spent most of his childhood days with his older sister Theodora who always took care of him. Today Theodora often visits his videos, just like other family members.
He was six years old when he was diagnosed by a neural disorder called Tourette syndrome. It is not really noticable but if you know what you are looking for you can notice some twitches or eye movement that aren’t caused by Caspar volunteerily.
His family lived in Durban but moved to Western Cape when he was 11. He loved playing tennis there and has spent a lot of time on the courtyard.
Two years later, when Caspar was 13, he became a student at Oakhill High where he got aquinted with his best friend Josh. The two of them are still very close and consider each other best friends.
Josh and Caspar are connected through work as well. They all create various content together and this is the reason they have a lot of subscribers.
He was a teenager when his parents got divorced which caused anxiety in Caspar but he soon overcome it and today he is great with both of them. He said that it was tough for him at first, but he worked his way out of it.
His mother worked in a chocolate factory, or to be more precise, she has owned it but she decided not to do it any more. It was too stressful and she couldn’t spend time with her family.
His biological father was a copywriter and he has a strong connection with him although they are not seeing much of each other.
After his parents separated his mother met someone new and he gained a stepfather who was working as a dentist.
Career development
He has opened his Youtube channel which he first named “Director Caspar”. He found that name silly afterwards and therefore changed it.
He started uploading his videos onto the Internet in 2010, when he was 16 years old. This means that he started out young, which increased his chances of becoming famous since teens love creators of their age.
He did it because he was bored and didn’t know what to do with his spare time. At that time, he was watching other Youtubers on Youtube channel all the time and he was interested in making his career the same way.
Caspar puts a lot of stuff on his Youtube channel. He posts pranks, a lot of interviews and similar ventures. He does many pranks on his roomate Joe Sugg: he once taped his whole room and filled it with baloons.
Caspar often invites his friends and family members to join him in his videos. Roomates are also a part of his comedy sketches and they help to film videos connected with some action.
His first YouTube channel wasn’t popular and he even tried to help himself about it. Caspar Lee watched his own videos and even commented the same videos because there weren’t any interested viewers.
He tried to fix it for a while, tried to engage audience, tried everything but he just couldn’t help it because he couldn’t reach his audience. He wasn’t happy with what he was presenting.
That is why he decided to restart his channel and try once more to engage viewers. He did it 2 years after so in 2012 Caspar restarted his channel.
To his surprise his new channel kicked off really well and started getting views and comments from the start. He was really happy and continued to create content more often.
After a while he became very popular but most of his audience were female (which is not surprising since he is so cute). Girls love him and his friend Joe.
