==History==
Gabriel was born in Brooklyn, New York, on March 3, 2000, but has lived in Aberdeen and Inverness, Scotland from 2001 to 2006, and Trinidad and Tobago from 2006 to 2018 and has a primarily Trinidadian background.

In 2014, Gabriel was cast as "Singh" on Trinidad and Tobago's local TV show, Life With The Ramsinghs, after performing a stage adaptation of the series, Window To The Past, at Naparima College. 
In 2017, Jaggernauth ranked in the top 10 in the Trinidad and Tobago Math Olympiad, however, failed to qualify to represent the Trinidad and Tobago team in the International Math Olympiad that year. 
===#VLOGS===
On June 7, 2017, Gabriel released his first video as a part of the retooling of his channel, 'WE GO SEE GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #VLOGS NO.1' for his new series, #VLOGS, which retold the events of the service of the theatre. Episodes of #VLOGS have no particular upload schedule and are released as an event that Gabriel vlogs happen. Season one of #VLOGS concluded on October 20, 2017, with 'NEW YORK CITY BABY!!! #VLOGS NO 23 (SEASON 1 FINALE)'. 
Season 2 of #VLOGS began November 4, 2017, with 'MOM'S 50TH FT. GRACIE #VLOGS NO. 24 (SEASON 2 PREMIERE)' and consisted of events that took place during the school year. A recurring element present in this season is the presence of more school-related elements, such as the hiking vlogs or vlogs featuring his schoolmates in more prominent appearances. The season ended on August 12th, 2018 with 'RETRENCH VBS 2018 PART 2 (SEASON 2 FINALE) #VLOGS NO. 53'.
Season 3 of #VLOGS began on August 23, 2018, with I'M LEAVING...(SEASON 3 PREMIERE) #VLOGS NO. 54. Season 3 told the events of Gabriel's first year at Oral Roberts University. The majority of this season takes place in Tulsa, Oklahoma rather than Gabriel's home of Trinidad and Tobago. The last six episodes of season 3 show Gabriel's time on a missions trip with ORU's Missions and Outreach program and the season concluded on July 14, 2019, with 'BIG CHURCH DAY OUT (SEASON 3 FINALE) #VLOGS NO. 82.
Season 4 of #VLOGS began on July 28, 2019, with 'GOIN' ON A CRUISE (SEASON 4 PREMIERE) #VLOGS NO. 83'. Season 4 consisted of events during the summer of that year as well as events during Gabriel's sophomore year and the summer that followed. The 100th episode of #VLOGS premiered in this season with FIRST VISIT TO FIVE ISLANDS PARK (ALSO OUR 100TH EPISODE) #VLOGS NO. 100, which coincided with the channel milestone of 1,000 subscribers. The season concluded on August 18, 2020, with 'WHY DID SUMMER GO SO FAST (SEASON 4 FINALE) #VLOGS NO. 101'. This season is notable for its cut length compared to previous seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 
Season 5 of #VLOGS began on September 30, 2020, with 'LET'S GET THIS YEAR STARTED (SEASON 5 PREMIERE) #VLOGS NO.102'. Season 5 consisted of events during Gabriel's junior year at Oral Roberts University. Similarly to season 4, season 5 is known for its shorter length, partly due to the COVID-19 Pandemic but also due to issues behind the scenes, resulting in several 'scrapped vlogs' (vlogs that are unreleased). Similarly to season 1, season 5 ended with a New York vlog on September 27th, 2021. 
Season 6 of #VLOGS began on October 4, 2021 with 'THREE-LEGGED JOURNEY (SEASON 6 PREMIERE) #VLOGS NO. 116', consisting of Jaggernauth's final semester at ORU and some of the events leading into his new life. On December 2, 2021, Gabriel released a video entitled 'What's Next?', detailing future plans for the channel, including major changes to future seasons of #VLOGS and new content for the channel. Season 6 entered hiatus in 2022 for Gabriel to recover from mental health issues, with rare occasional video releases. Season 6 ended with 'ORU GRADUATION DAYS!' on December 12, 2022. 
Season 7 of #VLOGS began on January 2, 2023, with 'I MET A POWER RANGER!!!!'. Season 7 saw many changes of elements with regards to the vlogs, including the intro being shortened to 4 recurring clips and approximately 2-4 seconds. The titles also moved to be featured in a slide during the clip after rather than during the intro and the thumbnails were changed to remove the logo and title of the vlog. The titles also abandoned the full capitalization, as well as the presence of the vlog number. Season 7 ended with 'My Family Visited Me For Christmas' on March 2, 2024 
Season 8 of #VLOGS began on March 16, 2024 with 'Anime 405 (Ft. Ian Sinclair, Christopher Sabat and MORE!!!)', which also announced season 8 as a Convention-type season, which is set to feature more vlogs in conventions, such as the aforementioned Anime 405, as well as GalaxyCon Oklahoma City, Vidcon Anaheim, Oklahoma Comic Con, and Power Morphicon. 
===Gaming===
During season 2 of #VLOGS, Gabriel went into streaming for a short time, playing Fortnite. Only three Fortnite streams, however, were done. Three Watch_Dogs video uploads were also done at the same time and uploaded to the channel. 
On November 2, 2019, Gabriel began a new series where he previewed a recently released game, under the name SAMPLED. His first video centered around the first 40 minutes of him playing Luigi's Mansion. There have only been two videos under this series so far, however. 
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Gabriel started releasing more gaming videos to his channel, beginning with a sample pack of levels that he created in Super Mario Maker 2. Many of these videos feature Gabriel showing something of his own design within a game (such as Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Mario Maker 2), an accomplishment that he has made within a game (such as his completing of the Pokedex in Pokemon Sword) or have him attempt challenges that he decides to take up (such as him trying to beat Plague Inc. or get the 5-star wanted level in Grand Theft Auto V).

In 2022, Gabriel Jaggernauth wrote a book titled 'What God Taught Me'. It was published by Trilogy, a subsidiary of TBN, and released on September 4th, 2023. The book goes over 14 things Gabriel learned in his life as a Christian.
