So how did he manage to achieve such success? Here is what he has to say about it.

"I set up the YouTube page around two-and-a-half years ago, it was just for fun really and I started putting up videos of Call of Duty," he said.

"When GTA V came out, it revolutionised the gaming world, the graphics, everything about it was just so much better than anything before it.

"I give people help, save them time, I tell them where certain things are in the game such as hidden cars, how to get more money, like a walkthrough.

"It can be a bit time consuming as it takes around three hours per video, but I think it's worth it as the more views I get, the more sponsorship I get.

"My parents are very supportive as they know I do my coursework and all of my schoolwork first," he added.
