Template:Infobox Internet celebrity Smosh is a duo of college students, Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox, from Carmichael, California. They attend American River College. However, they are famous for their writing, filming, acting, and editing in their own skits and music videos. As of May 2008, they have over 364,000 subscribers on YouTube, making them the most subscribed on YouTube.[1]

"Pokémon Theme" is Smosh's most famous video. In June 2007, the video was removed due to a copyright claim by Shogakukan. The video received more than 24,000,000 views before its removal.[2] Some of their series are called "Smosh Shorts" and sometimes they portray TV shows. Their first video was the Power Rangers theme. Their "Smosh Short 2: Stranded" video won the 2006 YouTube Award for Best Comedy.[3]

Notes

  • At 3:07 in the Pokemon theme video (which is back on YouTube) there is an easter egg in the form of a short clip of Anthony in Spongebob Squarepants underpants.
