LazarBeam opens up on YouTube struggles: \u201cI can\u2019t remember the last day I felt relaxed\u201d YouTube: LazarBeamLannan \u2018LazarBeam\u2019 Eacott opened up about the challenges of being a content creator on YouTube, admitting it becomes your entire existence, and he hasn\u2019t felt relaxed in more than a decade. LazarBeam burst onto the scene during the peak of Fortnite\u2019s success, and he\u2019s been thriving ever since. Not only did he receive an icon skin the game, but his YouTube channel has reached new heights with almost 20 million subscribers. But after appearing in the new Ryan Reynolds movie, Free Guy, along with Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys, Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins, and other content creators and streamers, he said how it\u2019s wrong for people to think he\u2019s had it easy. LazarBeam explained that people have the misconception that you can wake up, do ten minutes of recording, and send it off somewhere, which isn\u2019t the case. \u201cIt\u2019s more of a lifestyle. It\u2019s more like your entire existence,\u201d he told Polygon in an interview. \u201cI can\u2019t remember the last day I felt relaxed. It was probably a decade ago, where I wasn\u2019t stressing about something or the comments people make. I think that is my biggest problem with people\u2019s perception: that it\u2019s easy.\u201d \u201cI would sleep three to four hours a night and work every day, and edit the video, try and come up with something, or [in the] morning, film for five hours, edit for six hours\u2026 and then go to bed and wake up and do it again.\u201d LazarBeam isn\u2019t the only content creator to open up about the difficulties they face, too. Ninja admitted he struggles with the \u201chuge pressure\u201d of streaming, while Poki also revealed she worries about taking time off and falling behind. So, it seems like his co-stars, along with other content creators, know all too well how demanding their work can be. They understand his plight, even if the general public doesn\u2019t agree, but he wants to change that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
