Jack Black, that wonder of a comic actor, has gone after two heavyweights of the YouTube world, PewDiePie and Ninja, as he launched his own gaming channel on YouTube.
In a video uploaded to the channel Jablinkski Games earlier this week, a casual-looking Jack is sat on a classic YouTubers racing seat chair, as he addressed the camera, manned by his son.
Hey whats up its me Jack Black, said one of the most recognisable faces to the camera. This is my new YouTube channel, Jablinski.
Its going to be bigger than Ninja, its going to be bigger than PewDiePie.
He then impersonated Swedish YT king PewDiePie as he dramatically reclined his chair in true Jack Black fashion that also gave a nod to an inside joke between Pew – real name Felix Kjellberg – and his followers.
Also, the chair is a clear copy of PewDiePies. Jack knows what hes doing…

Seems the channel will be uploading spicy content every Friday, according to the vid, as JB added it will revolve around games, food, and life.
He then also wrote in the comments below: I just want to clarify that there is no production behind this. this is all my son. Hes holding me hostage and I cant be tracer. help…[sic]
Its quite the bold move from Jack, who has directly challenged the biggest YouTuber on the platform, PewDiePie, who has over 78.5 million subscribers, while Ninja is known as one of the biggest gaming channels.
After a long battle with T-Series for the crown of the most-subscribed-to channel on the site PewDiePie came out on top – so we doubt Jack is going to be make any large dent there.
While Ninja, who became wildly popular with all the rage that was Fortnite when it exploded, has around 20.5 million subscribers. Again, not too shabby.
However, the actor hasnt done too bad so far – with not even one gaming video, or content about the other two facets food and life, uploaded yet, hes scored over half a million subscribers.
While the intro video itself has been viewed over two million times.

Whether or not the School Of Rock star creates anything with any real lasting credibility remains to be seen, but so far it seems like hes just another punter tapping into the lucrative world of YouTube.
