TKOR (formerly known as The King of Random) is a YouTube channel created by Grant Thompson that originally conducted DIY projects and experiments, often involving large amounts of a single item. Thompson created the channel in 2010 and operated it until his death in 2019. The channel is now run by Thompson's friends and family and no longer has a DIY focus, but produces content such as "life hacks, experiments, and random weekend projects."
The channel was originally hosted solely by Thompson, and then by sculptors Nate Bonham and Calli Gade, later joined by meteorologist Grace Dirig. Bonham and Gade left TKOR in 2021 citing creative differences with TKOR management and a downturn in viewership.
The channel has 12.4 million subscribers. TKOR maintains three other channels: "2KOR", for behind-the-scenes and other content, "TKOR Shorts", for use of YouTube's "Shorts" feature, and "The King of Random en Español", for videos from the main channel translated into Spanish.[2]
