Dude Perfect (formerly known as corycotton) is an American YouTube channel run by Garrett Hilbert (born: May 13, 1987), Coby and Cory Cotton (born: July 17, 1987), Cody Jones (born: October 9, 1987), and Tyler Nathan "Ty" Toney (born: March 24, 1989) who once specialized in "trick shot" videos. However, since 2017, they have done challenge athletic competitions between the members as the main videos for their channel.
The channel is the 2nd most subscribed on YouTube Sports category. Overall, Dude Perfect ranks as the 32nd most subscribed channel on YouTube with 60 million subscribers. In addition, their channel is the most subscribed YouTube channel from Texas.
The Start[]
Dude Perfect started off doing "trick shot" videos, which compiled of the boys making shots using sport equipment and often now random household items into places that seem impossible (or requires significant skill to achieve) and instantly got acclaimed fame, since they were one of the first times trick shot videos and channels had ever been established on YouTube.
Their early videos were pretty simple and did not have a lot of budget spent on them. They put their high school basketball skills and friendship together on display, dating way back to their College times, and have since bonded much more along with improving their skills in the world of trick shot showings.
Popularity[]
Dude Perfect's rise of fame was in 2013-2014, when trick shots were everywhere on YouTube. Dude Perfect, already having a following, got the most popularity on YouTube in the community. They appeared in a lot of commercials on a lot of events, got mentioned all around the world through writing or video platforms, had famous celebrities (mostly sports stars) endorsing them or featured in their videos, and even got their own television series, "The Dude Perfect Show", which aired their first season on CMT and their other two seasons on Nickelodeon (since 2009, many YouTubers have appeared on the children oriented networks, Nick and Disney, such as the Paul brothers, with Fred being the first), as a result gaining almost ten million subscribers in a span of one year.
Their popularity continues to grow as many admire they love and skills of competitions and trick shots along with their expression of family friendly entertainment, as well as their appearances on Guinness World Record books which they have been on several times so far. They are the most subscribed YouTube channel in the United States that is owned by a small group of people.
Garret Hilbert is the oldest of the crew, and Tyler Toney is the youngest of the crew.
Channel series (contents)[]
Aside regular videos which consists of just trick shots, these are the special videos on the channel.
Stereotypes[]
The Stereotypes series is where the dudes act out the stereotypes of different subjects. The "Rage Monster" stereotype appears in every Stereotypes video and is portrayed by Tyler. The Rage Monster is usually very angry and destroys objects, and mainly rages at Cody who also often triggers The Rage Monster. March Madness Stereotypes is the only Stereotypes video in which The Rage Monster does not rage (and also is the only one where The Rage Monster is not triggered by Cody but instead Garret. In Wedding Stereotypes, the Rage Monster is instead triggered by Sparky and features another Rage Monster called “Bridezilla”). In early episodes, Cody often portrayed Mr Excuses (most notably in Gym, Golf, and March Madness Stereotypes) who comes up with ridiculous excuses for whatever the theme of the video is (for example, in Gym Stereotypes he has excuses why he shouldn't go to the gym). In some cases, Dude Perfect's Twitter will take suggestions for stereotypes from viewers. Early Stereotypes videos featured a character called The Old Guy who was played by Cody's grandpa who passed away in February of 2019. Stereotypes videos often feature appearances by their wives, children, and Cody's parents. The Quarantine Stereotypes video was dedicated to all the essential employees and frontline healthcare workers during the COVID 19 pandemic.
Battles[]
They also do a battle series where all five of them compete for the win. The videos usually consist of Nerf battle and the such. Coby won his first battle in "Giant Sumo Battle".
Occasionally, the Dudes split up into two teams of either two people (with the fifth Dude being the host/judge) or three people (with a special guest). In these battles, labeled Team Battles, whichever team loses has to suffer a consequence similar to those on Wheel Unfortunate; but this has been phased out over time.
Occasionally, the Dudes will bring in their mascot, a humanoid Panda, to play in Team Battles. Panda is the only member of the team to have a 100% win rate, though they have also only participated in two battles.
Drone Battle is the only battle that has ended in a tie with no tiebreaker. Additionally, the trophy was cut in half to signify this.

Recurring Segments[]
Cool Not Cool[]
Each of the five Dudes (or four, depending on if there is a suspension or not) bring an item to the table that they think is cool. The other Dudes vote with either green buttons (signaling they think the item is cool) or red buttons (signaling an item is not cool). If a Dude has a neutral opinion on an item, they press both buttons to cast a neutral vote, which is colored yellow. An item with a majority green vote is classified as “Cool”, while majority reds are classified as “Not Cool”. Items that get clean sweeps are either classified as a Super Cool (green) or Super Not Cool (red). Dudes may pre-vote (i.e. voting before an item is presented) and switch their vote at any point. If a Dude is suspended, they do not have any buttons or their microphone, and saying anything results in an automatic Wheel Unfortunate spin.
Overtime 22’s Cool Not Cool worked like Secret Santa. Each Dude picked the name of another Dude at random and brought an item for that Dude. In this version, only the Dude who the item was a gift for gets to vote, meaning the item is either a Super Cool or a Super Not Cool. Unlike normal episodes, Dudes cannot pre-vote or switch their vote, which caused Cody to get his first Super Not Cool - the only Super Not Cool that day - when he accidentally threw his item on the red button.
Garrett has the best overall track record in Cool Not Cool, with 29 Cool Items - 9 of which were Super Cools - to 1 Not Cool item. Prior to Overtime 33, he was the only person to have never brought a Not Cool item. Both of the twins have been issued a one-game suspension for different reasons - Coby in Overtime 12 for going over budget in the previous episode, and Cory in Overtime 17 for failing to get a majority green vote the previous episode, which was decided he would need to do after getting the show’s first ever Super Not Cool in Overtime 15. Tyler has brought in the most Super Not Cool items in regular play - three - with Cory and Cody tied for second place at two and Garrett and Coby having never brought a Super Not Cool item. However, Tyler is also the only member of the group to have brought in three consecutive Super Cool items.
Cody’s item in Overtime 26 was sponsored by Displate, and he would put a sponsor block on all the red buttons to prevent any result except a Super Cool; because Coby intended on voting red, the item is counted as just a Cool item.
In Overtime 28, Tyler’s item only received one vote, cast by him, before there was an “emergency” and the Dudes rushed to get away from the table. The vote that he cast was red; therefore, the item is counted as a Super Not Cool for consistency reasons.
Because Coby was infected with COVID-19 at the time of Overtime 33, YouTuber and former NASA engineer Mark Rober took his place in the episode; Mark’s item is listed in italics.
Overtime 37 saw the first ever six-person Cool Not Cool, guest starring Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Dončić, who brought his own item and could vote on other people’s items. Because Coby’s and Cody’s items that episode were the first items in the history of the show to have received a completely neutral vote (3 Cool votes and 3 Not Cool votes) there needed to be a new category created for item ratings. (Luka’s item was Luka 1 Shoes, and received a Super Cool.)
Below is a chart of the items from each episode, as well as the verdict on whether the item was Cool or Not Cool. Episodes 23 and 31 were opposite episodes and are listed with an asterisk; those episodes do not count towards show totals.

Wheel Unfortunate[]
All of the Dude’s names are entered into a hat, and one Dude picks a name. Whoever’s name was picked spins a wheel with various consequences. Occasionally, the Dudes do decide to eliminate others one by one. It is usually hosted by Tyler’s most famous alter ego, Ned Forrester, unless Tyler himself is picked, the episode is an opposite edition, or Ned is canonically on a sabbatical.
| Episode # | Dude | Punishment | Other Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cody | Level 10 Spray Tan | This was the first time Cody got selected, and after this he would have a run of over 3 years and 28 episodes until he was picked again. |
| 2 | Cory | Drive Through Car Wash In Bed Of Truck | |
| 3 | Cory | Eat A Whole Banana | Cory was excited to have landed on this until he learned he would also have to eat the peel of the banana. |
| 4 | Cory | Fly To Wisconsin For No Reason | The first time Cory picked himself for Wheel Unfortunate. This was also the third time in a row Cory got picked. |
| 5 | Garrett | Run A Mile As A Mascot | Name was picked by Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski. |
| 7 | Cory | Shave Your Eyebrows | The second time Cory picked himself for Wheel Unfortunate. |
| 8 | Coby | Get French Toasted | |
| 9 | Coby | Sit In Box Filled With Snakes | |

| 18 | Cory | Sleep In A Sandy Bed | Cory was supposed to have been automatically picked as punishment for breaking his suspension rules in the previous episode’s Cool Not Cool, but the other four Dudes forgot by this time, only for Cory to pick his own name anyway.

| 20 | Garrett | Own A Cat | Punishment had taken up three different slots by this point. Episode was titled “It Finally Happened”. |
| 21 | Chris Tingle (Garrett) | 24 Hours In A Diner | Hosted by Tyler (acting as himself). Possible contestants were all five Dudes’ most famous alter egos, rather than the Dudes themselves. Though not mentioned on the wheel, every waffle eaten would subtract one hour from the total time. |

| 35 | Garrett | Get Full Body Casted | |
| 36 | Coby | Toenail Sandwich | |
| 38 | Coby | Post Your Phone Number | Some of the calls Coby received were featured in the YouTube video. Coby had to keep his current phone number for at least 24 hours before he could change it. |
| 39 | Garrett | 3 Rounds with Ned | Garrett had to get in the boxing ring and last 3 rounds with the host of Wheel Unfortunate, Ned Forrester. Throughout the match, Ned was given many unfair advantages, like having Garrett handcuffed for the final round. |
| 40 | Cody | Wear a Blindfold during the Match | Cody had to wear a blindfold during the first match Burnley F.C. played being partially owned by Dude Perfect. However, halfway through the match, Cody was instructed by Garrett to take his blindfold off. |

Face-Off[]
Face-Off videos are featured on the Whistle Sports Network YouTube channel. In these Face-Off videos, the Dude Perfect members draw two people to Face-Off in a contest and a sideline announcer to commentate. The commentator is usually portrayed in a comedic sense, with an outlandish outfit and personality. Tyler is most often chosen to play this role, having been selected 10 times. At first, the winner received a replica WWE Championship belt, referred to on-air as the "WWC (Winner Winner Championship Dinner) Belt", but eventually a customized Dude Perfect Face-Off Championship belt was created, first debuting in the Office Golf Face-Off. However, the WWC is still occasionally presented along with the customized belt.
Coby is the most successful member of the group in regards to Face-Offs; he has competed in 8 Face-Offs and won 7 of them. By contrast, Cory is the least successful, being winless in his 8 Face-Offs.

Bucket List[]
Starting in 2020, Dude Perfect began a new series of videos titled "Bucket List" where the group travels somewhere to cross things off their bucket lists. The first episode was Aircraft Carrier and the most recent is Alaska. Coby traveling into space with Blue Origin (that he won in Rocket Battle 3) was made into an episode of Bucket List showing the behind the scenes of Coby preparing/training for his flight, his interaction with the others the night before launch, and GoPro footage filmed during the launch, in orbit, and landing.
As of 2023, 5 episodes of Bucket List have been produced: Aircraft Carrier, South Africa, Top 5 Vehicles, Alaska, and Space.
Dude Perfect Customs[]
Aside their video content and style, here is a list of things affiliated with Dude Perfect:
- Dude Perfect has a Panda (a person dressed in a Panda costume) who taunts people from the opposing team in Dude Perfect's various contests, meaning the Panda appears on Dude Perfect's videos often. Sometimes he takes part in the competitions and wins them even. The Panda is quite famous due to being a mascot at the Texas A&M University (the college Dude Perfect went to) and being apart of Dude Perfect. A video was uploaded in 2019 that Dude Perfect would reveal who plays Panda if they tie their number of subscribers with PewDiePie, launching the hashtag #TieThePie. As of 2023, the video has become unlisted. The video also announced Dude Perfect's premium content which includes additional videos only available to premium members.
- Dude Perfect previously had a reality series on Nickelodeon titled The Dude Perfect Show. Reruns currently air in syndication on CMT.
Alter egos[]
Tyler[]
- Ned Forrester: Tyler’s main alter ego, Ned Forrester, is probably the most recognizable out of the five dudes and their alter-egos. Ned tends to be very bubbly and talkative, but he can come off as egotistical sometimes. He is known for having a statue of himself labeled as “The Golden Boy” and wearing a heavy wool jacket in most, if not all, of his appearances.
- Billy Butchcroft: Tyler’s alternate alter ego for a long time was Billy Butchcroft. Billy is short in appearance (though this may have something to do with the fact that Ty is only 5’9”) and most notably wears a jean tank top and custom sunglasses. He is also known as being incredibly self-centered and seems to take a strong dislike to Ned Forrester.
- Dale Tweedly: Tyler’s most recent alter ego, Dale Tweedly only appeared in one video, being Overtime 17. He has moderately long hair, a very long fur hat, and wears an extremely baggy white-and-green vest. He is known for being extremely talkative, often interrupting the Dudes in conversation, and has a very gruff personality.
- Judge Dudy: Ty’s take on Judge Judy features an outfit very similar to what Tyler normally wears, but is adorned with a long judge’s robe and a white powdered wig. He speaks with a Bostonian-British accent.
Cody[]
- Joe Flirt: Joe first appeared in Faceoff 22: Sumo Soccer, but has not made any appearances past that. Similar to Jon Carver, he wears a fake set of teeth that sticks out in front of his real teeth. He also has very long, blonde hair. His description is “This guy literally just showed up and grabbed the mic” which probably indicates a lack of broadcasting talent.
- Jerry Senderson: Jerry made his debut in Skiing Stereotypes labeled as “Jerry” and has been making cameos ever since. He has brown hair, custom sunglasses, and a very large (obviously fake) handlebar mustache. He has a very precocious but obnoxious personality and speaks exactly like a skiier. Canonically, Jerry is actually a multibillionaire, being the CEO of a sticky-toy company that is valued at $4.5 billion.
Garrett[]
- Chris Tingle: Chris made his debut in one of the Christmas-themed Faceoff videos, and has been making occasional cameos in December-released videos ever since. He wears a custom red jacket and has long red hair. He is very cheerful and extremely festive at all times of the year, and his name is a play on words of “Kris Kringle”, one of the most famous nicknames of Santa Claus. Chris is also the only alter ego to have been selected as a Wheel Unfortunate contestant.
Cory[]
- Jim Schorts: First appearing in Hockey Faceoff, Jim Schorts has long, yellow dreadlocks and shorts, which is the origin of his tagline “My hair is long, and my shorts are short”. He is from the fictional island of Yamaica, and speaks with a Jamaican accent. He claims to be the “biggest hockey fan in all of Yamaica”. He has a much more laidback personality than some of the alter egos, but can occasionally be salty when someone else gets an item that he has wanted for a long time (for example, Garrett’s Holographic Charizard card). He has hosted Wheel Fortunate once, in OT 31.
Coby[]
- Jon Carver: Jon made his only appearance in a Faceoff as the host of Turkey Bowling, though he quickly became a fan favorite. He wears a hunter’s hat, a vest with lots of assorted items, and a fake set of teeth. He claims to be the originator of Thanksgiving and is constantly reiterating the importance of being thankful. He is also a germaphobe, being most averse to salmonella.
Trivia[]
- The channel's url name says "corycotton" who is one of the group's members, meaning the channel was originally Cory's before passing it on to his friends under collaboration.
- It's a running joke on the channel that Coby isn't good at battles, having only won six as of September 2022, by far the lowest of any group member. This is mentioned in the video "DPHQ2 Trick Shots," when Coby has a completely empty shelf in his office, and he says that it's for his "future battle trophies."
- Coby’s first battle win came in April 2017, in Giant Sumo Battle. To celebrate, the other four Dudes threw a massive parade for Coby, complete with a king’s outfit, a horse, and having him deliver a speech. Additionally, according to the official book Dude Perfect: 101 Tricks, Tips, and Cool Stuff, the parade came around the time when Coby started dating his now-wife, so their first picture together had Coby dressed in the king’s outfit.
- Coby’s speech:
”As the great Vince Lombardi once said, ‘Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.’”
(Laughter)
“There were times when kids would come up to me on the streets and ask, ‘Coby, will you ever win a battle?’ You know you’re in a bad place when you start answering those kids, ‘I don’t know, buddy. I just don’t know.”
(Laughter)
”Today is a very exciting day, because I won my very first battle.”
(Extreme applause, along with Tyler exclaiming, “YES YOU DID! YES YOU DID!”)
“But today’s not actually about me. Today’s about you guys. Each of you is fighting your own battles. It may be a vegetable you don’t like, or that pesky homework you just don’t wanna finish. But your battles are real, and you can defeat them. Sure, it might take you four years like it did me, but that’s okay, you’ll get there. I wanna thank all of you who never gave up on me. Your encouragement gave me the strength to press on. To persevere. To do what Garrett and many others said would never be done - to win.
(Laughter)
“And finally, these six doves, represent each of the finales I’ve been in and lost. The sky is the limit for them, and for me, and for all of you. Ty, release the doves.”
(Tyler opens the basket containing the doves, and they fly out, to much applause.)
”I love you all. I appreciate you more than you know. Now go fight your battles and win them. Thank you guys!”
- Each of the members have a nickname that their often referred to as in videos, most notably in the Overtime theme song. Cody is the "Tall guy," Tyler is the "Bearded guy," Coby is "Twin #1," Cory is "Twin #2," and Garrett is the "Purple hoser."
- Cody does not like milk.[1]
- The series would chronicle the events of the team as they embarked on their first national tour, the Pound It Noggin tour, in July and August of 2019. The series was announced at YouTube's NewFronts Presentation in May of 2019.
- Each Dude Perfect video has something in the video description for those who have read the description that far and to post something specific in the comments. For example, in Airsoft Battle Royale, the description tells people who have read that far to comment "Panda would've won if he played".
