Popularity
Toby is popular all over the world. On his most recent trip to England, he held an unplanned meetup in Hyde Park that over 2,000 members of the Audience attended. Most of Toby's viewers are young (between ages of 12-20), but he is still enjoyed by other age groups. Most people in his vlogs (which are often recorded in public places) are often confused, as they just see a man talking and recording himself. Occasionally in his vlogs he runs into some fans, who are usually in shock to see him and meet him.
Other than TV shows or movies, Tobuscus also occasionally collaborates with other YouTubers, such as his friends and fellow youtubers Jacksfilms, Olga Kay, PewDiePie , and Sean Klitzner. Toby's popularity can be attributed to his constant ability to be funny, and his amazing skill at improv comedy. He is also a talented musician.
Although Toby is 31 years old, he is still young at heart, which is why he attracts a younger audience. He frequently sings in his videos, though this is still unconfirmed.

Toby recently set up a fundraising campaign using the website indiegogo.com in order to raise money for a Tobsucus adventures video game, which will be coming out for IOS and Android devices.

Amelia Talon
On April 9, 2016, Amelia uploaded a video in response to April, backing her up. She stated that she doesn't doubt her story and has witnessed what Toby does to other women.

She also says that Toby tried to push drugs (weed and molly) on her (She did molly willingly but was heavily pressured). [3]
JaclynGlenn
On April 9, 2016, Jaclyn uploaded a video in response to April. She stated that when she was first dating Toby, women (including April) would come up to her to warn her about dating him, worrying that she was going to get hurt, but she ignored it all. When she started to date him, there were problems. She felt pressured into doing things she thought were uncomfortable. She goes on to say that just because she felt uncomfortable, didn't mean that she felt pressured into doing stuff she didnt want to do. She mentions that Toby wasn't honest with her a lot of the times. She broke up with him when she wanted to only have a misogamist relationship with him.[4]
