Devin Graham[3] (born July 29, 1983) is an American videographer who produces adventure and extreme sport videos on YouTube under the name devinsupertramp.[4][5] His channel has more than 6.1 million subscribers and over 1.5 billion total views.[6]
Career
[edit]Graham began making films of his stunts snowboarding at an early age. After breaking his back and legs snowboarding, he shifted his focus to being behind the camera.[7][8] He studied film making at Brigham Young University with the original intent on working on feature films.[7] After seeing the successes of YouTube videos, specifically one made on a cellphone that amassed over two million views, Graham opted to focus on making videos of his own rather than completing his degree.[7]
Graham mostly produces, films, and edits his videos on his own.[7] In a number of occasions, Graham has stated that he's worked with his roommate Jeff Harmon, others for sound, and cameramen if required.[7] In Logan, Utah, he recruited 30 fan volunteers to help him shoot a snowball fight after making a public appeal on Facebook.[7]
Graham's YouTube channel has more than six million subscribers and his videos have amounted to over a billion views as of April 2021.[6] His videos are noted for their high production value and frequent use of Glidecam stabilizers.[9] Some of his revenue comes from corporate sponsorships for his videos; which have included the clothing brand Vooray,[10] Timex, Kelloggs,[11] Bear Naked,[5] Mountain Dew, Ford, Ubisoft,[12] and Reebok, as well as Speed Stick Gear.[13]
Personal life
[edit]For a short time he dated fellow YouTube celebrity Lindsey Stirling; they both attended the same university and church.[8] The two began dating shortly after the filming of the music video for Stirling's "Crystallize".[14][15] They have since ended their relationship, but still remain friends.[15]
Graham also dated Hailey Gardiner from the singing group Gardiner Sisters. "Happily Ever After", a song from their EP, Better, was written by Hailey in reference to the dissolution of their relationship.[16]
Graham married Megan Smee on August 12, 2016.[17] In November 2019 Megan and Devin's son, Atlas Michael Graham, was born.[18]
