JerryRigEverything reaches 10.3 million subscribers amid high-profile phone tests
Zack Nelson's unusually large subscriber gain comes as his recent uploads move from phone teardowns to wheelchair technology and factory life.
Why this story? The channel is adding 99,972 subscribers a day, 23 times a normal day (4,306).
LOOK MOM NO HANDS
A typical day brings JerryRigEverything a few thousand new subscribers. This time, nearly 100,000 joined, a sharp jump for Zack Nelson's channel even as its daily views ran below their usual pace.
The leap comes with two heavily watched phone videos in the recent lineup: "Trump Phone Durability Test - Its worse than we thought..." and "iPhone Duo Teardown – APPLE SHOULD APOLOGIZE". Both have drawn audiences in the tens of millions between them. In the latter, Nelson examines the folding phone's internal hardware, focusing on dust entering the hinge and a mechanism he says can damage the screen.
But the newest uploads turn away from dismantling expensive gadgets. "LOOK MOM NO HANDS" features the Strutt EV1 power wheelchair, while "Hey Look Mom, Ive made it!" follows a celebration with his wheelchair-factory team after Carhartt used them as clothing models.
That range has a precedent in the channel's back catalog. Its most-watched regular video isn't a phone destruction test at all: it's "How to Install an Elevator in your Living Room!", posted in 2019. Making technology useful at home has a substantial place alongside finding out where it breaks.
