John Nellis adds 100,000 subscribers on a quieter viewing day
His bounce test remains among the recent attractions, but the subscriber jump has not come with an equivalent surge in daily views.
Why this story? The channel is adding 100,001 subscribers a day, 9.2 times a normal day (10,855).
Which Football Will Bounce the Highest?
John Nellis usually adds subscribers by the thousands each day. This time, about 100,000 joined, taking his football-experiment channel to 17.1 million subscribers.
The unusual part is the contrast: daily views are running at roughly half his usual pace. This is a sharp subscriber increase, not a day when everything on the channel has surged together.
Since passing the previous million mark, Nellis has posted "Which Football Will Bounce the Highest?", putting another everyday football question alongside rather less everyday assignments. His recent uploads also include "$500 Ballon d'Or Pack Opening" and "Pro Footballers Decide My FC 27 Rating".
Those sit within a catalogue that stretches from meeting Messi to trying to cook a steak inside a football stadium. The stadium-cooking Short remains his most-watched Short, while "Kylian Mbappé Surprised His Biggest Fan" leads his regular videos. The channel's biggest attractions aren't confined to the pitch, or even to playing football.
