JacksGap is a British YouTube channel run by twins Jackson Frayn "Jack" Harries and Finnegan Frayn "Finn" Harries (both born May 13, 1993). JacksGap has more than 4 million subscribers. It was originally created by Jack Harries in mid 2011 whilst taking a gap year before pursuing a degree. Finn Harries joined him afterwards, causing a rapid increase in the channel's popularity. ==Background== JacksGap was originally launched in July 2011 by Jack Harries during his gap year after he had left school. The main purpose of the channel was to document Jack's gap year. By September 2012 the site had 190,000 subscribers and the pay-per-click advertising revenue was enough to entirely finance the Harries' travels in Thailand.〔 After Finn joined the channel, the views nearly doubled. JacksGap attracts teenage girls in particular, with 88% of subscribers in this demographic.〔 In 2013 the twins began to create 15-minute-long episodes about their travels in India, funding the venture with £20,000 from Skype, Sony and MyDestination. As of March 2015, JacksGap has over 4 million subscribers.〔 In January 2015, JacksGap posted a video called "Let's Talk About Mental Health" that was later referenced in an article on ''The Huffington Post'' in which he addresses the importance of starting an open conversation about mental health in order to reduce the stigma attached to it. In April 2015, JacksGap posted a video called "What Do You Believe In?" that announced Finn had moved to New York City earlier that year to study Design and Architecture for three and a half years at the Parsons School of Design, though he is still a part of JacksGap. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「JacksGap」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
