Dude Perfect



Today I’m talking about a different type of non-profit organization. This group is called Dude Perfect. This is a group of five guys who started out on YouTube. They are well-known for making trick shots that seem impossible. They are also in a comedy series called “Stereotypes”. They are the 2nd largest sports channel on YouTube today.

The guys all played basketball in high school and roomed together at Texas A&M University. Today, the group has about 4.06 million subscribers on YouTube. They provide “genuinely enjoyable entertainment” that people just love to watch. Their videos inspire people everywhere because they have a “Go Big philosophy”. They have filmed all over the world and have also been on the show Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory, which is where I first heard of them. On the show they did some outrageous shots with Rob and his team and it was truly amazing. They have worked with several different brands and non-profits.

This group is religious, and inspire many people to find their faith. Each member feels that Jesus has changed their life and they want that for other people too. They don’t push it on people, but encourage them to at least open up to learn more about Jesus. Another thing they believe in is their Go Big philosophy. Their website uses this quote: “go big with what you love, and use that platform for a cause greater than yourself”. This is mainly what they aim to tell people. They want to improve lives and make “the best trick shot videos on the Internet”.

They are now their own brand, so you can buy their merchandise as well! I suggest going to their website for more information about the group, why they do what they do, and also for more information about the individual team members. You will also see links to their videos and their YouTube channel that is definitely worth the visit! These videos are seriously awesome. I love watching this group and am very happy that they aren’t afraid to show their faith to everyone. They are an inspiration to people everywhere.
