Roman Atwood’s Career

Atwood’s career started early in his 20s when he worked on various film projects and commercials in Ohio. He also produced a series of DVD’s called “The Nerd Herd” and sold it on the “Warped Tour” in 2006. His early years in creating videos helped establish his career and his net worth, but while concurrently working in his family’s rope factory, called Atwood Rope.

In 2009, Atwood decided to join the online video-sharing platform YouTube, and created his channel “RomanAtwood.” After years of producing various sketches and pranks, in 2012 his channel received its breakthrough hit when he uploaded the video “Cops Get Owned!!!”. From there, Atwood continued to create more prank videos which attracted millions of views, and went viral online. Some of his most memorable pranks include the “Plastic Ball Prank”, in which he filled his home with thousands of plastic balls and turned it into a ball pit – the video was used by the car company Nissan, and made it to their “WithDad” campaign.

Another video that made Atwood famous is his “Anniversary Prank” video, in which he pulled a prank on his then long time girlfriend, Brittney Smith, by confessing that he cheated on her. Little did he know that Smith saw the camera he installed in their room and ran along with the prank, telling him that she cheated on him, too. Atwood’s viral videos have received billions of views on YouTube, and have become a huge source of his wealth. In 2013 Atwood created another channel called “RomanAtwoodVlogs”, on which he posts daily updates about his family. That same year, he also created his own merchandise line called “Smile More”, selling shirts, hoodies and and various items. His second YouTube channel and merchandise line also help in increasing his net worth.

In 2016, Atwood tried joining the world of films, when he created “Natural Born Pranksters” with Vitaly Zdorovetskiy and Dennis Roady, released by Lionsgate. Unfortunately the film didn’t do well at the box office, and received poor reviews from the critics.

Today, Atwood still continues to create videos for his channel “RomanAtwoodVlogs.” Both his channels belong to the list of 100 most subscribed channels on YouTube – his millions of followers also led him to receive the Diamond Play Button award from YouTube.
