— Harry's intro.
| ||
Harry Christopher George Lewis (born November 24, 1996), also known as wroetoshaw or W2S, is a YouTube personality and the youngest member of the Sidemen.
Background
Harry was born in Alderney - one of the Channel Islands - and lived there until his family moved to Guernsey when he was seven. He has a younger brother (called Josh) and a younger sister (called Rosie). Harry (and his siblings) attended Guernsey Grammar School.
During this time, he played for a football team called Rangers F.C. and once lost a match 32-0. Harry first got into gaming when his parents bought him a Nintendo GameCube for £5 from a car boot sale. Harry was evidently an intelligent student growing up and even sat his GCSE maths exam a year early and still achieved a grade A.
Harry initially set up numerous YouTube channels on which he'd experiment with different ideas (i.e. he had channels for vlogging and playing instruments). Eventually, he set up his main channel "wroetoshaw". He got this from FIFA and it is a contraction of the players Nicky Wroe and Tom Bradshaw. At the age of 17, he dropped out of school and decided to do YouTube as a full-time job.
Harry was a latecomer to the Sidemen and joined in early-2014; a few months after their formation but before they treated the group as an official thing. Harry hit ten million subscribers on his main channel in April 2017 and is often on the receiving end of incest/beastiality banter due to him being from Guernsey.
Personality
Harry is known for being the most "fearless" and energetic Sideman by being loud and overjoyed in videos. When Harry uploads FIFA videos, he is known for smashing his chair or controller against the wall or at anything around him when he is raging or gets a good pack.
He is also considered the least consistent of the Sidemen by not uploading very frequently. This is often one of the jokes in Cards Against Humanity sessions.
Accommodation
Harry is one of the three Sidemen who has never lived in the Sidemen House (or the former house). Until 2014, Harry lived with his parents and siblings in Guernsey. He moved to London in September 2014 - at the age of 17 - to live in an apartment with Callux and Calfreezy in the Stratford Halo. The trio still live there as of 2018 and bought a dog called Herb in 2017. In March 2015, Harry bought a flat in Guernsey in addition to his London accommodation. It is unknown if he still owns it.
Cars
During the summer of 2014, Harry showed off his wealth by buying a chrome-wrapped Range Rover Evoque (which typically costs around £40,000). He later re-wrapped it with a gold chrome finish. After just a year of driving the Evoque, Harry sold/gave it to Calfreezy. Just before he sold it, Harry re-wrapped the car for the third time, making its current appearance satin black.
Harry now owns a Lamborghini Gallardo 50th Anniversary Edition. He allegedly bought the car on 21 June 2015 but didn't publicly reveal it via YouTube until 11 August 2015. Harry no longer owns the Lamborghini.
Harry also possess a grey Audi A4, supposedly his casual car for when he goes back to Guernsey.
Controversy
Harry was the subject of controversy during November 2014. He made a video showing off his "new car" which was a Ferrari 458 (rose-gold). A few weeks later, he admitted he was joking and confirmed the car did not belong to him. It belonged to Yianni from Yiannimize. He was once again the target of abuse.
An image of Harry's scrotum was leaked onto the Internet (alongside the caption "IT'S BATHTIME BOYS!") during the 2015 Twitter hack. He has since made a joke out of this and has titled one of his vlogs as such.
Trivia
- Harry's main channel ranks #17 in the most subscribed YouTube channels of the UK and #100 in the world.
- In a video entitled "Googling Myself", Harry confirmed that he is a fan of Chelsea Football Club.
- For the 2015 GCSE Results Day, Harry personally sent £50 to all of his followers who tweeted him proving that they gained straight A*-A's. There were at least 16 in total - meaning he sent a minimum of £800.
- Harry was just 16 years old when the Sidemen officially formed in October 2013. He was 17 when he joined them.
- The group often use the Guernsey stereotype against Harry, regularly referring to him as "inbred" and having an incestuous relationship with his family.
- Harry stated in his 2014 "HARDEST Q&A EVER" video (with KSI and Calfreezy) that he does, in fact, have a girlfriend; called Katie Sarah Leach who made her first appearence in Harry's 2017 video -"A TOTS IN EVERY SINGLE PACK!!! - FIFA 17" and as seen through her Instagram photos and tweets to each other, they are still together.
- Harry stated in Tobi's "THE SIDEMEN ARE LIARS" video that when he was 13 or 14, he did a fake iPad giveaway to get subscribers. He confirmed this in the Sidemen Book and admitted the iPad was the property of his brother.
- Harry openly admits to putting the milk into a cup of tea first (before the teabag and boiling water). This is deeply frowned upon in Great Britain. Many have teased that the reason Harry does this is due to his Guernsey heritage (which is known for being "different") and not part of the UK.
