Netflix UK are making waves with their new documentary on The Sidemen, the YouTube squad that’s been keeping over 20 million of us entertained since they got together in 2013. These seven mates – Ethan, Harry, Joshua, JJ (KSI), Simon, Tobi, and Vik – have shared pretty much everything online, but this behind the scenes documentary takes us even deeper, showing sides of them we’ve never seen.
From their start as just a bunch of kids filming videos for fun to becoming full-blown internet sensations, the documentary covers it all. It’s got the juicy bits too, like the drama in 2017 when KSI pretended to leave the group, which had everyone on the edge of their seats. Little spoiler alert: this drama, diss-tracks and all, helped them rake in some serious cash.
What’s really great about this film is how it doesn’t just stick to the laughs; it gets real, touching on tough times and mental health, showing these guys are more than just their online personas. They’ve had their ups and downs, fought through online hate, and come out stronger, sticking together through thick and thin.
It’s not just a story for the die-hard fans either. Anyone who’s into seeing how friendship can survive the test of fame and controversy will enjoy this. Plus, it gives a peek into how they’ve used their platform for good, not just for the laughs. So, if you’re into stories of realness, growth, and a bit of fun, this Sidemen story on Netflix is your next must-watch. Check it out on Netflix now.
