During the summer of 2015, then-strangers Ammar, Thomas, Derin, and Matt had an epiphany - life's greatest moments and deepest connections exist outside of your comfort zone. To prove that theory, these four guys dropped everything and escaped their comfort zone.
Over the last 9 years, Yes Theory's main mission was to seek discomfort - everything from skydiving with strangers to traveling to the least visited country in the world. They have turned their channel into more than just an entertainment outlet, it's a philosophy - pushing others (8.7M subscribers to be exact) to seek discomfort and to say 'yes' to new (possibly uncomfortable) experiences.
And, their subscribers aren't the only ones that enjoy Yes Theory's content! Several different brands have sponsored this channel, including SeatGeek, NordicTrack, Honey, Headspace, Audible, and many more.
If you just focus on YouTube’s AdSense, Yes Theory's income depends on its RPM (revenue per thousand video views). So, how much money does Yes Theory make per video?

According to our YouTube sponsorship calculator, we can predict that an ad placement on this channel is worth around $0.017 CPV. That means that with Yes Theory's current average views, a sponsorship on this channel probably stands between $65,583 and $91,817.
Merch: Rep the movement with Yes Theory's merch - Seek Discomfort. They have a wide variety of lifestyle apparel, such as T-shirts, sherpas, hoodies, sweatpants, and even jewelry. Seek Discomfort also sells products that help fans, well, seek discomfort - cards that will help you branch out of your comfort zone, a world scratch map, and a Challenge Accepted daily journal.

Our new measurement tool - the evergreen score - computes the data and helps you understand which videos are on the trajectory to continue to get views over time, and which videos have lost their appeal and flatlined (available in our paid plan). We also introduced another feature - back catalog views which is the channel's total views in the last 30 days, minus the views of the videos published within the last 30 days.
