Hello dude. I liked this. You have to team up with Bad Friends. Their vlogs low-key reminds me of Logan Paul and a blend of PewDiePie. Theyre the most insane friend group in America and they straight up do crazy stuff in every video.

You should see their channel out and give the crew a like! 👉 #BadFriendHomies
