Airrack rose to fame by posting vlog, challenge, and prank videos on his self-titled channel, which had over 800,000 subs before he even started his stay on the island. He\u2019s collabed with Jake Paul several times in the past, which certainly doesn\u2019t hurt when it comes to exposure, but it hasn\u2019t been enough to get him to the 1 million mark. In an effort to finally reach that threshold, Decker has actually stranded himself on a desert island over Christmas. Over the years we\u2019ve seen all kinds of ploys from YouTubers to try and boost their sub count, but never anything quite like intentionally turning yourself into Tom Hanks from Castaway before. Using the hashtag #saveairrack, the YouTuber is begging fans to help him get to 1 million subs, or \u201che might never make it off of the island.\u201d \u201cMy life is a living nightmare, please go to saveairrack.com so I can get off of this godforsaken place,\u201d the streamer begged in a video posted before the live stream began. Sticking to his word, he has indeed streamed his experience on the island, which does indeed seem \u201cdeserted\u201d but does have plenty of plants and food to eat, as long as you like nothing but bananas and coconuts. Other activities include a bit of exploration, plenty of fishing and chaotic video chats with all of the fans helping him in his quest for 1 million subs. While streaming on Christmas Day 2020, airrack is closer than ever before to 1 million subs and getting back to civilization, currently sitting just over 954,000 subs at the time of writing. \u201cI\u2019m pretty tired, but we\u2019ve been grinding,\u201d Decker told viewers on Dec. 25. \u201cWe are not leaving until I reach 1 million.\u201d You can watch along with airrack on the stream above, and while getting just under 50,000 subs might seem like a tall task, at the start of the challenge he was only at around 800,000. At this pace, he should be getting out of there before the end of the year (hopefully). With much of the world unable to travel this Christmas, spending the day on your own island doesn\u2019t seem like too bad of a deal. Being trapped there by your sub count is another story entirely though, but at least there seem to be plenty of bananas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTuber airrack strands himself on deserted island until he hits 1 million subs airrack\/instagramMost people don\u2019t set out to intentionally strand themselves on a desert island, but that\u2019s exactly what YouTube streamer Eric \u2018airrack\u2019 Decker has done in an attempt to reach 1 million subscribers, and you better believe he\u2019s broadcasting his experience throughout the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65779","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65779"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65779\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
