==​Jan's Reviews and LaVieJanRoos==
Jan Roos is a Dutch Youtuber who started to make YouTube content in 2014 on his former main channel; 'LavieJanRoos'. 
 When he started his channel, his videos were often critical about various things that were wrong according to him, or he gave his opinions about various items that were recently in the news. Most of them are about Dutch national news like politics and Gender neutrality. 
His videos were often filled with self-spot, satire and sarcasm. Sometimes he used disguises or objects to fill in the entertainment. He talked to the viewers like a grandfather that is talking to his child. Many people often complained that they were mostly just watching the inside of his nostrils.
In January of 2018, he stated in a video that he would end his daily vlog due other duties. He stated that he didn't stop, but that he also wouldn't vlog daily anymore. In August 2020 he stated that he came back with a whole other format. He would upload reviews and unboxing videos and would also re-start his Top-10 lists. He deleted al his opinion videos and vlogs from the past and only left the top-10 lists he already made.
On September 7, 2020 he announced that he would stop uploading on LavieJanRoos and would move his content to his new channel; Jan's reviews. The main reason was that LavieJanRoos was demonetized by YouTube and with his new channel he could start over. His new channel quickly became populair, also due the fact that Roos's image became more well-known under the Dutch youth as he was gaining popularity as co-presentator of Roddelpraat.
