We caught up with them at SitC to ask them a few Q's.
We The Unicorns
Oh, hey you guys! You mind if we ask you some quick questions? π
Saffron
Ofc not!
Jake
Go for it...
We The Unicorns
Great! Who is the most inspirational YouTuber to you?
Saffron
Oooo I think we're going to say the same person.
Jake
For me, it's gotta be Roman Attwood!
Saffron
Definitely, he does awesome things everyday and you get to see his family so you feel like you really know him.
Jake
And he's crazy!
We The Unicorns
For sure - we love his vlogs too! π What was the first subscriber milestone that blew you away?
Jake
I think for me it was back in the day, I hit 100 subscribers when I was like 11 and I was literally so happy and then I hit 1000 in 2014 and I was buzzing πππ
Saffron
Erm I dunno, I think because weβre always growing every number is amazing but 100,000 was great, that was such a good feeling.
Jake
100,000 is when you think βIβm doing wellβ π π
We The Unicorns
What is the hardest thing about being a YouTuber?
Jake
Definitely consistency.
Saffron
Yeah, especially with daily vlogs βcause they have to go up at the same time every day which means I have to edit that night to make sure I upload at the same time β°
We The Unicorns
Which celebrity would you like to see start a YouTube channel?
Jake
Oooo I don't think I have one π
Saffron
I've got to say Tammy Henbrow. She is a girl that I follow on Instagram who has millions of followers because her and her family are just goals π
We The Unicorns
We'd love to see that too! π What piece of advice would you give to people just starting out on YouTube?
Jake
Just be consistent.
Saffron
And be yourself as well. Every channel on YouTube is different and if your trying to copy another channel then people wonβt want to see the same thing.
We The Unicorns
What's the weirdest meet and greet experience you've ever had?
Saffron
I haven't really had any...
Jake
I've got to say, there was one weird one last year at SitC. Someone squeezed my bum and it was just so awkward, like obviously thatβs not the right thing to do.
We The Unicorns
Eww! No, we completely agree! Finally, what is the coolest thing a fan has ever done for you?
Jake
It's definitely the edits, like when they get clips from our vlogs from like a year ago and then they put them all together, that's so cool.
Saffron
Yeah, same. Like that must take a lot of time cause they have to download all of our videos but itβs so nice to look back at it π
We The Unicorns
Well, thank you for stopping for a chat you two. Catch you later! π
Saffron
Bye unicornsss πππ
Jake
Nice talking to you!
