Vailskibum

Vailskibum (born: ), formerly known as Vailskibum94, is an American YouTuber. He is known for his videos on various topics about cartoons, and theories discussing them.
==Personal life==
His personal life is unknown, though he jokingly claims to live in Gravity Falls. A YouTube account called Mountaindude246 claims to be his older brother, however, there is nothing to verify this claim and Vail has not commented on whether or not its true.
==History==
Before he created Vailskibum94, Vail had a channel called eaglefan246, which consisted of Club Penguin shorts and movies. Vail created his current channel on July 2, 2013. His content consists of cartoon theories, updates, reviews, memes and parodies. 
He also has a second channel, Vailskibum Stories and More where he talks about some interesting stories in his life and random memes, and a vlogging channel with his friends called AdventureTube. He originally started out as a theorist of the Disney animated series , a show known for its hidden secrets and codes for fans to decipher. 
His videos switched from text to audio by 2014, and he became the leader of YouTube's Gravity Falls community. After the show ended in 2016, Vail shifted his content towards other cartoons creating many new series. For example his "CREEPIEST LOST EPISODES" series, in which he covers various cartoon Creepypastas such as Dead Bart, Squidward's Suicide and The Grieving. 
On August 26, 2022, his YouTube name changed only by removing the numbers 94. According to a video, "Why is The 94 in Vailskibum94 GONE?" he said that Vailskibum looks cleaner without any numbers. He also, explained the meaning of his username: the Vail part refers to Vail Pass, where he used to skii there with his family. Ski Bum (skibum) - the one who lives and breathes skiing. 94 is added for no reason.   
==Criticisms and Controversies==
Vail has received a lot of criticism from fellow YouTubers. This is due to the fact that his videos have, in the past been perceived as misleading, clickbait, and of bad quality. Notably, a YouTuber named Avis Reviews created an hour long "channel analysis" in which he made several points on why he believed Vail's channel was bad. LS Mark also made a rant that received positive reception.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4M-RvisvYU&ab_channel=LSMark
=== Brief termination ===
Vail’s channel was briefly terminated on February 16, 2019. The very next day, he explained on his Twitter that it was related to his shortening of “Club Penguin” as CP, which is also an abbreviation for “child porn.” He also said that other users who also uploaded videos that had “CP” in the title were also terminated mistakenly by the YouTube Bots, mainly Pokémon GO YouTubers. His channel was reinstated late in the evening that same day. 
==Trivia==
*He has an older brother who is only seen in one video.
