Gary Eats

[constancehardbroom]

Just had a gander and the “rudest chippy” review has over 1.1 million views, all the others have about 200k -300k ish. The odd one with “that man “, maybe up to 500k views. Yeah… totally off him now.

I used to like him (ish) up until he gave the Chinese woman £500 on camera to look like a good Samaritan ( I've just said this on RMT thread, I didn't realise Gary had his own)

he's done it before but not quite on that scale, the times i remember were the £1 meal steak food truck paying for 20 meals or something and making a donation to the RNLI who happened to have a pair collecting there. Not to mention a point of always tipping if there was no service charge etc

I've never seen 'the cameraman' on screen either. He must be living off of his father's earnings as it's a huge time commitment for someone with a FT job.

Maybe Old Ma Eats is propped up with a Pot Noodle and a copy of her son's book?

I'm thinking they might be doing a UK roadtrip Weekend at Bernie's remake with Ma Eats in the back of Danny's Van.

The restaurant pays. They are all at it despite their whining.

Meh - crap isn't it?

 

[I Love Greyhounds]

New to this thread. I like Gary and the way he helped Danny. Am I missing something?

i managed to completely put my dad off gary because i pointed out how performative he is in all videos now he can’t unsee it, then said he might not be doing ads but he’s probably getting it all back in tax, which fair but i’d respect him more if he said as it’s his job he can claim it back

 

[ChickenLicking]

I watched it last night. Spot on - Gazza was terrified by the owner and didn't press him about the inedible food or the service charge. At least he got his bizarre blue suit jacket back, eh?

Certainly...

ChatKFC says:

Gary Eats is probably earning roughly:

£5,000–£10,000 per month from YouTube ads

Possibly £10k–£15k+ total including sponsorships/freebies/other platforms

Main reasons:

Around 450k+ subscribers

Likely 4–6 million monthly views

Food channels usually earn decent ad rates compared with gaming or prank content

Big caveat:

If most views are Shorts, earnings could be much lower

Viral long-form videos pay far better

In short:
Comfortable full-time income, but probably not “Dubai penthouse and rented Lamborghini” money. More “nice semi-detached in Essex and an air fryer the size of a tumble dryer.”

What would he earn for one video with 650K Views in the 1st 24 hours

If a video did 650,000 views in 24 hours, a realistic estimate is:
£500–£1,500 if it’s mostly Shorts traffic
£2,000–£5,000+ if it’s a normal long-form review video with strong UK/US viewers

For his sort of channel, I’d guess:

Around £2k–£4k for that one video
…just from YouTube ads.

Me thinks he doth protest too much.

See the Darren John Thread to see who has tried to jump on the bandwagon.

Have you got a link to that thread please?

I was looking at reviews of his book on Amazon - they're not great.

Interesting, never thought to look, but did wonder if it was doing well or not. Must take a look!

 

[constancehardbroom]

I suffered the video (flaming subway ) agree. Quite a few calling him out for it in the comments.
Also, someone pointed out before, he has massive feet those brown and now I can’t unsee it.
Interesting he wasn’t allowed to film in that Ramsays place,They didn’t want staff and customers faces showing on camera, but you could see some in the background. Someone said this, in the comments and he said no, YT processing or something.he said he understood and was fine about it, then went on to say /name other reviewers who were allowed , has Gordon had enough of him I wonder

 

[ChickenLicking]

The word obsequious was made for Gary

I've watched it now: yep, Gary's a slimy individual.

Oh please someome make that a reality! "Driving Old Ma Eats".

 

[constancehardbroom]

Yes I did too, like the guy said you are Gary or something to that effect, and I got the impression he had heard of him, but was surprised.. But all the hoo hah.. with the doorbell, and no one answering etc. it appeared the guy had no idea he was coming. Another poster said the guy has had a reviewer before? So maybe that’s why he was alarmed but carried on. I just don’t know!

 

[mrsfeather]

I get a bit tired of "the cameraman" nonsense also - he's always saying the cameraman (his son) will be revealed on the vlog but don't think it has happened yet. I could be wrong as I stopped watching a while ago. I prefer Greeno now as Gary became a bit too silly.

Agree that Gary cannot be doing much caring for his mother nowadays.

Gary must be making A LOT of money from his channel but seems to indicate he doesn't which is not true. Don't know why as he has certainly earned the money with a wildly successful show.

 

[Sakkiedekock]

The same one Gary and Danny did in Blackpool I assume? Or he did Yarmouth at some point i think.

He's in Yarmouth.

 

[constancehardbroom]

I haven’t looked in ages (or his dickhead mates)off to have a gander

 

[Asiangirl19]

Anyone know where Gary lives/from?
