Grandpa’s YouTube channel gains nearly 500,000 subscribers due to act of kindness

Every Sunday after family dinner, a Utah grandpa would grab the comics and read them to his grandkids. When COVID hit, he needed a distanced way to do it, so he took to YouTube.

His “Grandpa Reads the Comics” channel wasn’t getting much action — until an influential Instagrammer stumbled across his videos. The content was so heartwarming he had to share it. It wasn’t long until grandpa soared past 100,000 subscribers.

📺 Today, he has half a million subscribers and some of the sweetest videos you’ll see on YouTube. Watch his story here.
