Early life and career
Debuts on YouTube
Lucas Hauchard launched on YouTube in May 2008 with a first channel specialized in the game Dofus, Dofus Bouclier. This channel, inactive since June 2008, has two videos. In November 2010, he created another channel, TheVideobc, inactive since November 18, 2010, which has three videos; it also has a video game thematics.
He created his current YouTube channel under the pseudonym Squeezie in 2011, at the age of 15. Focused on video games testing, his channel achieved a fairly high profile, making him the youngest French person to gain over one million subscribers on YouTube, at the age of 17. He reached about 300,000 views per video during this period, during which he obtained his baccalauréat.
Growing popularity
In April 2013, when he had half a million subscribers, he teamed up with Cyprien, another French Youtuber, to create the channel CyprienGaming (currently Bigorneaux & Coquillage).
In 2014, he was frequently accused of plagiarism on PewDiePie, an accusation he refuted through a video. In March 2014, according to SocialBlade, Lucas Hauchard became the most popular French YouTuber, ahead of The Sound you Need, Cyprien, Rémi Gaillard and Norman. At the end of 2014, the same website reported that Squeezie’s videos were viewed 70.7 million times, more than Rémi Gaillard, Norman and Cauet combined.
He appears in the YouTube Rewind 2015, a video created by YouTube bringing together YouTubers and Internet personalities who marked the year.
In 2017, he participated to Fort Boyard, with Cyprien. Squeezie peaked at more than 1,860,000 subscribers in 2017, adding more than a billion to its viewing meter. He surpassed Norman in amount of subscribers in June 2018 and then Cyprien a year later, becoming the first French-language videographer in number of subscribers.
