Removed videos
Ian and Anthony have removed videos from either the Smosh website and YouTube account for various reasons.
- "The Evil Chain Letter" was one of Smosh's first videos. It made fun of internet chain letters. The video can still be found on youtube from other users.
- "Garret's Blog" was a video that mocked video bloggers. It is no longer on smosh.com or youtube.
- "I-Dawg announcement 'bout YT Awards" was a video released by Smosh to make people aware that they were nominees for the YouTube awards and to tell the viewer to vote for them. The video was only online for about a week, and was removed after voting was closed and Smosh had won.
- "Pokémon Theme" is Smosh's most famous video. In June 2007, the video was removed due to a copyright claim by Shogakukan Production Co. Ltd.. The video received 24,732,537 views before its removal. The video can still be found on smosh.com. It can also be found on youtube from other users.
The Pokémon Theme is the only video that wasn't removed by Smosh. The other three listed above were removed by Smosh themselves.
IanH
Smosh's alternate account, IanH, contains videos of what Anthony and Ian do in their spare time and "submit side projects and other content not deemed worthy for the masses", assured Ian. Their most watched video is the original video, "A Day in the Life of Smosh", with 494,698 views as of November 25, 2007. It is also the #59 most subscribed channel on youtube with 24,000 subscribers. This account includes a two part blog of Los Angeles, California, where they filmed their award winning Smosh short, "Stranded".
