That's it...nor could I pick the guy out of a line-up.
I'm guessing you are referencing this guy:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/12/11/6-year-old-made-11-million-in-one-year-reviewing-toys-on-you-tube/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.22e40c445620
In June, TubeFilter ranked “Ryan ToysReview” as the most viewed YouTube channel in the U.S. for the 40th week in a row. In September, NBA player Kevin Durant was featured in one of Ryan’s videos performing a children’s science experiment.
Ryan’s popularity makes perfect sense. He’s got every small kid’s dream job, opening toys and playing with them, day after day. He’s smiley, too, totally nonthreatening to parents and children alike. No bad words. No preachy banter. He’s a miniature Mister Rogers but without the sweater and slippers.
Finding a niche and exploiting it takes talent. I admire his pluck. His parents creep me out.
