‘The Try Guys’ was a group formed by four of them while working at BuzzFeed in 2014. The first video was totally based on timing, and according to Kornfeld, “It really came down to who was then willing to show their butts.”
The group started shooting in 2014, and they then posted “Guys Try Ladies’ Underwear for the First Time” under BuzzFeed Motion Pictures. The video then became viral, and most of their videos became viral too. Seeing this, they decided to get separated and later started their own YouTube channel under the name “The Try Guys.”
