How it feels

What happens

The Try Guys is an American online entertainment group and media production company that produces content for their YouTube channel. The group was founded by Eugene Lee Yang, Keith Habersberger, Ned Fulmer, and Zach Kornfeld. The Try Guys are known for testing a wide range of activities, such as testing their sperm count, raising toddlers, shaving their legs, and wearing women's underwear. The four men created The Try Guys while working for BuzzFeed before forming their own company, 2nd Try LLC, in 2018. They have since expanded their company to include more than twenty employees, starred in a Food Network show titled No Recipe Road Trip, and released a book titled The Hidden Power of F*cking Up. As of October 2022, the channel hosts eleven spinoff series starring employees of the company and other collaborators. Then in 2024, they launched a boutique subscription streaming service called 2ndTry TV. Fulmer was removed from the company in September 2022 following an extramarital affair with an employee. In May 2024, Yang announced his departure from their flagship show; he will, however, retain co-ownership of the company. In the same month, the Try Guys announced 9 new cast members consisting of Jonny Manganello, Joyce Louis-Jean, Miles Bonsignore, Ryan Garcia, YB Chang Biste, Marissa Rivera, Jared Popkin, Ash Perez, and Kwesi James.
