Rainbolt's content mainly consists of videos of the geography-based browser game GeoGuessr. He has occasionally made real-life/vlog videos as well.
==History==
Rainbolt first started uploading on TikTok, where he would stitch videos of him playing GeoGuessr rounds with an extremely high accuracy to memes and thirst TikToks. As he gained more followers on TikTok he started to upload GeoGuessr challenges (ex. only looking at the dirt, only looking at the image for 0.1 seconds). He has also uploaded TikToks where he finds the origins of captcha images on Google Maps and where music videos and movies took place. These helped him find significant success online.
While he had collaborated with GeoGuessr YouTubers for some time, the first large YouTuber to shed light on Rainbolt was Ludwig. Ludwig uploaded multiple videos playing with Rainbolt, leading Rainbolt to even more success. Alongside Ludwig, Rainbolt has also played with Dream and GeorgeNotFound. Rainbolt started to upload videos on YouTube in January 2022 where he now uploads GeoGuessr tournaments.
