-----------ADDED JULY 30th 2019------------
We are deeply saddened at the passing of Grant Thompson in July 2019. We were honoured when he agreed to have his YouTube story animated as part of the Creator Journey series and we worked with him over several months to bring his incredible adventure to life.
Grant had great love and appreciation for his fans. We invite you to share your thoughts for Grant in the comments. Please do a random act of love or kindness today in honor of The King of Random. Grant’s legacy will live on through his channel the global community he created and the journey he shared with you in this video.

Grant Thompson worked as a roughneck, flew commercial jets, bought eleven houses and had four boys... and that's BEFORE he started a YouTube channel and grew it to more than 10 million subscribers and 2 billion views!
His unquenchable thirst to explore how things work led him to make an arc welder out of microwave parts, rocket motors from sugar and glass bottles from saltwater.
Random right? Well, that IS how he got his name!

Huge kudos to Tooncee for her wonderful animation work: / @tooncee
His YouTube creator journey has taken him from the highs of business entrepreneurship and inspiring a generation to stay random, to the lows of extreme burnout and nearly quitting YouTube altogether three times.
We hope you enjoy the first of our animated creator journeys!
