Callux

What happened to Callux? What happened to his YouTube, his hip or his chest?

As of November 2026, nothing has happened to Callux that he or an accepted outlet has reported; his main channel has simply gone quiet. What is public: his last long upload, I Took The World’s Luckiest Person To Las Vegas, went up on August 29, 2024, and his last Short on February 22, 2026, per YouTube. He stayed active in business: SXSW London listed him as a June 4, 2026 speaker and co-founder of After Party Studios. We found no statement from him and no report in an accepted outlet about a hip or chest injury, so we do not repeat one; Reddit threads are not a source we use. His upload timeline is in the next answer.

Why did Callux stop uploading? Why did he stop making videos?

Callux has not said why he stopped uploading, in anything we could source, as of November 2026. What is public: his long videos thinned out after 2023, ending with KSI Embarrassed Me In Front Of 4,000,000 People on July 12, 2024 and the Las Vegas video on August 29, 2024. On September 14, 2025 he started a Shorts series, “I’m trying to make £1m in under a year”, and posted 34 episodes, the last on February 22, 2026. Nothing newer is on the channel as of November 3, 2026. His video descriptions list two companies, After Party Studios and notwoways, and his 2023 video How I Accidentally Created a $26m Sneaker Brand is about the second. Whether he has stepped back from YouTube for good has not been said, so we do not guess.

What happened to Callux and the Sidemen? Why did Callux leave the Sidemen?

Callux has never been a member of the Sidemen, so as of November 2026 there is no departure to explain. The Sidemen’s own 2021 video descriptions list seven members, KSI, Miniminter, Zerkaa, Behzinga, Vikkstar123, TBJZL and Wroetoshaw, and he is not one of them; his SXSW London bio calls him a long-time collaborator and friend who regularly appears on Sidemen Sundays and in the charity matches. The Sidemen channel built a whole episode around him, 20 WOMEN VS 1 SIDEMEN: CALLUX EDITION (February 13, 2022), and his own October 28, 2023 video Golf, But The Winner Apparently Joins The Sidemen ft. Freezy + Randy made a joke of joining. His June 19, 2021 upload is titled Dear Sidemen, I’m Sorry. and links two Sidemen videos in its description; we found no report of a falling out.
