Modeled after the stunt show, “Jackass”, the series shows the friends eating fatty, high calorie meals that they design themselves, usually combining multiple fast food items and alcohol. As of this writing, their youtube channel has nearly 7 million subscribers and more than 1 billion video views. In addition to splitting revenue with ads that are shown on their videos, Epic Meal Time has a popular line of T-Shirts, a video game, a cookbook and an iPhone App. Their success has allowed both Morenstein, a former teacher, and Toth, a former graphic designer, to quit their jobs to focus full time on their budding media empire.
