Prank videos on YouTube tend to pull in back views and Baylen Levine is well aware of this. The YouTuber is now among the most popular pranksters on the platform with over 3.8 million subscribers. He often does his pranks in stores and also makes vlogs and compilation videos. As of 2023, Baylen Levine has an estimated net worth of $2 million.
Early Life
Baylen was born on October 30, 2000 and was raised in Roswell, Georgia by his father Adam and his mother, Krystal. He grew up with a younger sister, Lilah. The 22-year-old started to gain interest in practical jokes during high school.
When he was starting to receive recognition for his uploads, his school principal made him choose between removing his channel or dropping out of school. Surprisingly, Baylen chose the latter and luckily he has made a career out of it.
Rise to Fame
Baylen created his YouTube account back in 2017 but didn’t start sharing content until a year later. In 2018, Levine’s channel started to pick up some traction and his following grew with constant uploads every week.
When the year ended, he compiled his most hilarious antics into a video titled “Funniest Videos of 2018.” It became his most-viewed video on the channel and quickly realized subscribers preferred this type of video.
They became his most popular videos, exactly as Baylen wanted. Occasionally, he made vlogs that still show a lot of his natural comedic side. He recently surpassed 500 million views on his channel, a huge milestone considering he only had 1 million views in January 2019.
Other Ventures
His growing influence opened the door for many other opportunities. He has partnered with many brands, which he endorsed not only on YouTube but across his social media accounts.
Baylen started selling merchandise with his clothing brand, Benitez. Through his website, BaylenLevine.com he mainly sells shirts and hoodies. Unlike some influencers, the clothing retails for a fair price ranging from $30 – $50. They sport slogans only fans of the channel will understand.
Apart from merch, he is currently selling tickets for Baylen Levine’s Karate Tournament, which will be held at Park West, Chicago. The event is set to happen on November 13, 2022.
Net Worth and Earnings
According to Social Blade, Baylen’s channel averages around 500,000 views every day. Assuming an estimated CPM of $5, he makes $2,500 per day in ad revenue and just over $900,000 per year.
The content creator earns also extra income from other ventures such as merch, brand deals, and events. Based on his following, he could easily make over six figures from these sources. When everything is added together, Levine’s net worth is around $2 million.
Personal Life
Baylen is a charismatic guy, so it’s easy to assume he’s popular with the ladies. Currently, he’s single but some rumors floating around report he’s dating fellow YouTuber, Sadie Crowell. This hasn’t been confirmed yet. Levine now lives in a home in Florida, USA.
