Louis John Cole (born 28 April 1983) is a British film-maker and YouTube personality from Surrey, England. He has a following of over 1.3 million on instagram and over 769k on twitter. He is best known for posting a daily video blog on the channel "FunForLouis" which documents his life and travels adventuring all over the globe. Cole originally found fame through filming eating stunts on another channel, "FoodForLouis" but has since taken these videos down to focus on the positive message and trajectory of "FunForLouis" where he encourages viewers to "Peace out, enjoy life and live the adventure".

In 2007 Cole purchased and renovated a double-decker bus, equipping it as a mobile centre to help homeless youth with music and videogame facilities.[1] The Boombus project now receives funding from local council wards.[2]

Cole started to post daily vlogs on to his channel 'FunForLouis' on 31 December 2012 with a video titled 'Pancakes and Bicycles | LA Trip Day 2'[3] which can be found on his YouTube channel. He has released over 1000 vlogs consecutively as of 4 January 2016. Through this, Cole has managed to gain over 1,696,626 subscribers as of 4 January 2016.[4]

Personal life

Cole is a Christian. In his 'Draw My Life Video' he said how he grew up in church and is "inspired by Jesus' love for people" and wanted to reflect that in his own life.
