Nick Owens

Nicholas Owens (born: ), better known online as Nick Owens or sometimes Nicksplosives (formerly 120percentNick), is an Australian YouTuber and independent filmmaker, known for his variety of content, including gaming videos, podcasts, voice acting, comedic skits, and short films. He has multiple series across his channel, including untitled_science_show, but is best known for the drawing series Super Sketch Bros.
==Background==
Nick started the channel in mid 2012, and mainly uploaded comedy skits, often including long-time friend Ben Winestone, with whom he also hosts The Temporary Uncles Podcast. He started his first long-running series Tuesdays with Nick in early 2013, in which he would answer questions and perform requests from the comment section, which he would then call "Requestions". He ended the series with episode 82 on New Years Day 2019 after a lack of interest & increasing gaps between episodes.
His first sub boost was in April 2013, when he reached 100 subscribers after being featured in the jacksfilms video YOUR GRAMMAR SUCKS #50. His sub count would gradually grow until his second sub boost in January 2018 after uploading the video r/sbubby: top posts of all time, which suddenly gained 10,000 views in less than a week, growing the channel from 300+ to 1.1K, it remains his most popular video to date.
in 2022, Nick started pursuing voice acting professionally, as well as posting voiceover memes as YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels, gaining a larger following on Instagram when several of the reels gained over a million views. He has since joined the cast of Callimara's webseries 'WILDWARD'.
==Super Sketch Bros==
On May 13, 2018, he started the new series Super Sketch Bros, described as "inspired by Doodle Doods" (a series on GameGrumps that ended in August 2017). On the show Nick is joined by co-hosts Kevin & Chris, as they draw different topics (e.g. Movies or TV) with a new guest every episode. Episodes were uploaded sporadically until 2020, when they made the decision to upload monthly episodes (a decision put on hiatus by the Covid-19 pandemic, which means the episodes are released sporadically again). On the show they've been joined by such guests as Cruddyhands, Miles John, Magibauble, mmm... Lemony Fresh, squizzy, and Chippledipple, who was in the most popular episode, Episode 9 - Garfield.
==Trivia==
*This is Nick's second YouTube channel, his first channel was called Nintendowaffle10, which started in 2009 & consisted mainly of Pivot Stickfigure animations & comedy skits. That channel was deleted in order to start the new one.
