GrandPOOBear, is known as a Super Mario speedrunner, retro and variety streamer and Red Bull Esports athlete.
He is very well known for completing unique and difficult challenges as well as being the people's champion, raising more than $1.8 million for charity from his solo events (yes, you read that right).
His journey into a professional gaming career is different to many. After a major snowboarding accident in 2013, he turned to video games during his recovery saying, "I was bored on the couch, and I decided I wanted to become really good at one video game, Super Mario Bros. 3". Mission accomplished.
