You might not think you could earn that much just from filming yourself on YouTube and having a chat, but these guys are making serious, mega-bucks.
Forbes‘ annual ‘highest paid YouTuber’ list has been released and you might just find yourself shocked at the amount these vloggers rake in.
Take a look at the run-down.

The 33-year-old is making a sweet $8 million from his crazy online prank videos.
Number three: Lilly Singh
Better known as ‘Superwoman,’ this Canadian comedian-come-rapper is making a swish $7.5 million.
Number four: Anthony Padilla

In joint fifth place: Tyler Oakley and Rosanna Pansino
The podcaster and activist and popular baker each make a chill $6 million.
Joint sixth: Mark Fischbach and German Garmendia
The Hawaiian game-blogger and musician German, pull in a tidy $5.5 million each.
And finally: Colleen Ballinger and Rhett and Link
