(Dunya News) - A six-year-old boy has made it to the Forbes magazine’s just-out list of highest paid YouTube entrepreneurs.
Grabbing the eighth spot on the list, Ryan generated $11 million in revenue between June 1, 2016, and June 1, 2017. He tied with the comedy channel Smosh, created by Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox.
The boy gathered fame in 2015, when he started his YouTube channel ‘Ryan ToysReview’ at the age of four.
The channel now has over 10 million subscribers, driven primarily by a viral video of Ryan reviewing a hundred toys at once. It is titled "100+ cars toys GIANT EGG SURPRISE OPENING Disney Pixar Lightning McQueen kids video Ryan ToysReview".

On the family’s YouTube channel, Ryan’s parents write: "He loves Cars, Trains, Thomas and Friends, Lego, superheroes, Disney toys, open surprise eggs, Play-Doh , Pixar Disney cars, Disney Planes, monster trucks, Minions, playtime at the fun, family fun adventure and so much more!"
"One day, he asked me, ‘How come I’m not on YouTube when all the other kids are?’ So we just decided — yeah, we can do that. Then we took him to the store to get his very first toy — I think it was a Lego train set — and it all started from there," the boy’s mother said, via TubeFilter.
