Robin Birrell is a German social media personality and prankster who is best known for his YouTube channel 'robinbirrell' in which he posts mostly videos of him playing pranks on others, especially people close to him like his mother, his brother YouTuber Jamie Birrell and his former girlfriend Emma Crompton, who used to make regular appearances on his channel. The two often pranked each other in Emma vs. Robin revenge style, which kept his fans hooked to the channel. In a short span he has been able to gather over 2.3 million subscribers. Some of his pranks have been covered by viral video shows like the American television show 'Right This Minute'. He also has a second channel, ‘robinbirrellvlogs’, in which he posts vlogs, exploring videos, real life stories, question and answer videos, and much more. However, he is not very active on that channel. He is a friend of fellow YouTube prankster from the United States, Adrian Gee.
