Smosh is the highly successful comedy project of Ian Hecox and Anthony Padilla, these two are the two biggest sketch comedians on YouTube with a extensive fan base of over 2.2 million subscribers with many of their uploaded videos to garner millions of views in a matter of days.

The Smosh duo have had great success since 2005 when they first joined YouTube, their first big hit came when they uploaded a self made Poke'mon theme parody where they would lip sync and act out crude videos to songs. Of course this was when they were just making videos to amuse themselves and their friends but for some odd reason that video in particular gained a lot of attention and Smosh was born.

Since featured in a Time Magazine article they decided to move past lip syncing over songs, their style of comedy has evolved where they now make much more diverse sketches and have come up with various characters, they even have a second YouTube channel up where they post their behind the scenes stuff have 2 extra shows in Ian is Bored and Charlie the Talking Guinea Pig and a series called Lunchtime with Smosh where they post themselves going out to lunch.

Its hard to know where Smosh is expanding to in 2011 but there well on their way to reclaiming their lost crown of most subscribed poster on YouTube once more.
