Sam and Colby: Often Shirtless, Maybe Gay

Sam Golbach (right) and Colby Scherer (left) are a youtube, instagram, vine pair of internet stars with 1.7 million subscribers. 

Their schtick is paranormal investigation:

"Queen Mary: The Night We Talked to Demons"

"Escaping a Haunted Psych Ward"

"Exploring an Abandoned College"

"Satanic Ritual in an Abandoned Brewery"

In July and August they're going on a tour of the U.S. and Canada to talk about their adventures.

They also do pranks and humor videos.

Usually shirtless, of course,  You don't get to be an internet star without having a chest.

Sam seems to favor us with the most shirtless pics.




















My favorite video is "Boyfriend vs. Best Friend Challenge," where Colby finds out if his best friend (Sam) or boyfriend (Brennen Taylor, right) knows him better.

I don't know if Colby and Brennan are really boyfriends or just doing a schtick .  It's so hard to figure out with millenials, where straight guys pretend to be in love with their bros and gay guys pretend to be married to their gal pals.

I guess it doesn't make much difference unless you want a date with one of them.  Or if you want them to be role models to queer youth.

Brennen, by the way, also has a vlog, with 1.9 million subscribers.  He does mostly pranks and skits, such as a Condom Challenge with his older brother Jake.  They fill condoms with water and drop them on each other's heads while giggling.

This is better than scripted tv, how?

Oh, right -- he takes his shirt off.
