Their YouTube videos have racked up over 1.5 billion minutes (yes, that's billion with a "b") in views. And their home turf is right in our backyard. But it's difficult to catch the guys from Dude Perfect at their Frisco office (or 'playland,' as they like to call it.) They're constantly traveling all over the world to shoot their popular trick shot and stereotypes videos, many gathering millions of views each. Fortunately, we had a quick moment to meet up with them in Collin County and find out what's next on their already busy schedule.
We met with three members - Cody Jones, Garrett Hilbert, and Tyler Toney - about what it's like to be YouTube famous. (Twins Coby and Cory Cotton were on another assignment.) And speaking of YouTube, Dude Perfect has recently signed a new partnership with the video platform. YouTube picked them as one of their "Top 3" partners to promote, which equates to all sorts of publicity in the big cities. The crew is also working on releasing their next mobile game.
Check out the video up top for the full interview, plus watch a simple trick shot with yours truly. I requested to keep the shot simple as I have no athletic ability whatsoever. They really know how to make you feel awesome after making a basket!
