Who is Jake Dufner?
Jake Dufner is a YouTuber who specializes in prank videos, vlogs, and challenges. He is also an actor, best known for his support role in the film “The Devil Inside”.
Jake Dufner Early Life, Age, Family, and Education Background
Dufner was born under the Taurus Zodiac sign on 17 May 1998, in New Jersey USA, making him 21 years old as of mid-2019, an American by nationality, and he’s of white ethnicity. He has not shared details of his early life, but he has a brother named Kylian Dufner, who goes by the street name DK, and who has appeared on some of Jake’s videos such as a catfish prank that his brother played for his fans. There is also very little information regarding his parents, however, he seems to be very attached to his mother, as he often posts photos and videos of them together on his Instagram account. Jake has not disclosed information about his education background, and thus his level of education is not known to the public.
Jake Dufner Rise to Stardom
Jake started his YouTube channel in 2016 and since then has been sharing funny, scary and crazy videos on it. His channel’s content ranges from crazy pranks and overnight challenges, to flipping videos and romance stories. Jake loves uploading vlogs as well as letting his viewers in on all his special moments experienced in his crazy and fun life.
Out of the numerous videos he has posted, some of the most watched include “Ouija Board 3 AM Challenge Gone Terribly Wrong”, “Exploring Abandoned Plane Wreck”, and “1000 MPH Razor Fidget Vs Hand // 1000 MPH Razor Fidget Gone Terribly Wrong” – the first, a vlog has more than 1.8 million views; in it, Jake goes on a crashed plane exploration mission. The second video has more than 1.4 million views, and featured the Ouija Board challenge, and also demonstrates how Jake together with some of his friends gets attacked by a zozo demon. His third video is full of wonderful razor fidget challenges. Apart from these, Jake has filled his YouTube channel with many enjoyable and entertaining videos for his fans to enjoy watching.
Jake is well-known for uploading crazy but entertaining videos especially overnight challenges that he participates in at scary places. Currently, his YouTube channel is considered as one of the most watched channels on social media for everyone who fancies paranormal and ghosts-related themes. He has charmed millions of fans with his one-of-a-kind videos that are very engaging.
Jake has worked with his mother in his YouTube videos a number of times, for example on the video “My Mom Played Ouija Board-She Contacted My Grandmom”, publishing this scary but emotional video in April 2017. Other people he has worked with include Jesse Ridgeway – also known as McJuggerNuggets – who is a social media personality. Together, they worked on the “Sneaking Into Red Carpet Event With MCJUGGERNUGGETS- Behind The Scenes Of The Psycho Kid”. Jake is good friends with many social media personalities, and that is why he chooses to work with some of them from time to time.
Jake Dufner Personal Life, Girlfriend, and Children
Jake is said to be dating a beautiful lady named Ashley – like his fellow YouTubers, he also brings his girlfriend into his videos with the sole intent of entertaining his followers. He featured Ashley in his August 2017 video entitled “I Took My Girlfriend To Clinton Road (She Cried)”, and in other videos including “Confronting my girlfriend” and “We had The Talk”.
Apart from his YouTube channel, Jake is hesitant to show off his girlfriend on his other social media pages, which has created doubts in his fans’ minds regarding his romantic relationship with her; some people have even rumored that he might be gay. However, Jake has never displayed any character traits that resemble those of a gay person, and being in a romantic relationship with his girlfriend has eliminated all these rumors.
With his bold and attractive character and appearance, Jake has numerous female fans drooling over him. However, he has already picked his choice, and he and Ashley seem to be leading a happy life together as boy- and girl-friend.
In May 2017, Jake shocked his fans when he faked his own death, posting a couple of videos on his channel that suggested that he had been kidnapped. Jake’s fans became very concerned and confused at the same time as their idol was missing, and there was no information or updates on any of his social media accounts. Later, he explained in a video that he had done that with the sole intention of entertaining his viewers; that was one sick prank to play on them.
Jake Dufner Net Worth
Through his self-entitled YouTube channel, Jake has managed to add wealth to his net worth. Also, he runs a clothing line called DUFNERBRAND from which he earns. Being a popular social media personality especially on Instagram has made him a rich man, as he does advertising on it too.

He also owns a Honda Civic that is estimated to have cost him at least $21,450. Jake has shared a photo of this car that has a very polished look.
He has more than 400,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel which has been operational for less than three years; he managed to earn $10,000 within the first three months of launching it. Jake has over 190,000 followers on his Instagram account as well as almost 50,000 followers on Twitter. He entertains fans all over the world with his incredible photos and engaging posts.

#Quote1I know not every mom is a secret KGB spy, but every mom has this whole other life. Every dad and every person has this whole other life.2I am crazy for dessert. I eat everything. No one should be denied anything... just don't eat the whole thing.3Naps are the key to relieving stress. When you are working on two hours of sleep, the fact that cheese comes on something when you ordered it with no cheese is enough to send you crying under the covers for an hour.4Acting is a strange profession, and, yes, sometimes I struggle with its worth, its value in the world.5Dance has helped me with everything. It was a great foundation for discipline, hard work and, unfortunately, the ever-elusive idea of perfection. It lends itself easily to fight choreography, because that's what it really is. Choreography. And knowing how to move with someone.6I am positive I was not a neglected child. I remember reading 'The Jungle Book' and 'The Sleeping Beauty.'7I love doing laundry! It's so satisfying. I love the way it smells. I love doing the sheets.8Anything that opens you up emotionally is going to impact your acting. Parenthood, becoming a mom, certainly does that.9I am literally the worst person at keeping secrets. I'd be the worst spy of all time.10I want to be able to raise my kid. I was totally being a martyr about it at first, thinking I could totally do it on my own, which I did for a while. I've hired a babysitter before, but as for a full-time caregiver... for a control freak like me, it ain't gonna happen!11People still take it really personally. They come up to me at breakfast places like, 'When are you growing your hair back?'12People expect all women to react the same to pregnancy. But anyone who's been around pregnant women knows that it's not all cutesy and sweet. You spaz out and you're angry and you have tantrums.13Dance is definitely what I love doing much more than anything else.14Who knows? Maybe years from now I'll be on a ranch in Colorado with 10 kids. The whole point of life is to experience a little bit of everything, and I think it's better when there are a few surprises thrown in.15It's sad when girls think they don't have anything going on except being pretty.16Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever.17Yeah, I like being on my own. I do. I tend to be a loner, so I'm okay. I'm not okay when I have to be around everyone all the time.18People - not just in their teenage years - hold on to this fantasy of love when they're not ready to have a real relationship.
