He has not posted a video or a community post explaining the gap, and we found no news report about it.

Why did Edwin Sarkissian stop making videos? Is he still making videos?

Edwin Sarkissian has explained one break and not the current one. In 2024 he went about six months without a long video, from Can Silver brick stop bullets? 50BMG? on July 17, 2024 to Why We Stopped Uploading... on January 26, 2025. In that video he apologized for giving no updates, said fans had been emailing and messaging to ask what happened, and said in the end that they “just didn’t feel like making videos” and “took a long break.” He then posted regularly through 2025, with Ridge sponsorships and a Clear Ballistics affiliate code in the descriptions. Since November 1, 2025 he has posted nothing, and as of October 2026 he has not said why or whether he will return.

Is Edwin Sarkissian still alive? Did Edwin Sarkissian die?

His most recent public activity we could find is a YouTube Short, Concrete Guns Vs 50BMG!, posted November 1, 2025. The question is not new. In his January 26, 2025 video Why We Stopped Uploading... he said people had been contacting him and his friends to ask whether he was dead or alive, and answered on camera: “I’m not dead.” We could not read his Instagram posts, so we cannot say whether he has posted there since.

Was Edwin Sarkissian in an accident?

Edwin Sarkissian has said he was not, and we found no report of an accident in any news outlet as of October 2026. In Why We Stopped Uploading... (January 26, 2025) he said a rumor had spread during his 2024 break that he had crashed and died, and said “no car accidents.” In the same video he denied a rumor that YouTube had banned the channel.

Was Edwin Sarkissian in the military?

We found no statement from Edwin Sarkissian, on his channel or in the press, that he served in the military, as of October 2026. His military content is testing gear, not service: videos like US military helmet vs Russian military helmet, Indian, Chinese, Ukrainian and Canadian helmet tests, and a 1 Mile Armor Test in 2025. The war history on the channel belongs to items he says are his grandfather’s, covered in the next question.

Who is Edwin Sarkissian’s grandpa? Is the Lamborghini really his grandpa’s?

Edwin Sarkissian’s grandfather is a running part of the channel, mostly through things Edwin says belong to him; Edwin has not published his name. The Lamborghini series started with I can’t Believe we did this to my Grandpa’s Lamborghini (June 26, 2020) and World’s first Bulletproof Lamborghini (July 29, 2020, about 6 million views). Other titles credit his grandpa with a World War II pocket pistol in My Grandpa’s Daily Carry from WW2 (August 2020), a bunker in throwing a real call of duty grenade in my grandpa’s bunker (November 2020) and Vietnam war body armor (February 2021), and in his January 2025 comeback video he shot what he called his grandpa’s original World War II Mauser rifle. In an October 2021 video he joked about “stealing” his grandpa’s motorcycle and said his grandpa never wants to talk about his war days. Not every grandpa title is literal: My Grandpa’s Secret $100 million collection (August 2023) is a tour of the U.S. Ordnance factory with gun designer Mark Serbu.

Where is Edwin Sarkissian from? Where is he now?

He has not said publicly where he lives now, and we do not go further than that.

Edwin Sarkissian has not published a full birthdate, so we do not print an age. Famous Birthdays lists only a birth year, 1984, with no month or day. Edwin Sarkissian is the name on his channel and his early video titles, and he has not published another.

Who represents Edwin Sarkissian?

As of October 2026, no agency or manager is named for Edwin Sarkissian: his YouTube About page lists a personal email address and his social links, nothing more. Brands appear in his video descriptions as sponsors and affiliates, including Ridge, Clear Ballistics, USCCA, Grip6 and American Hartford Gold, and he credits Gun Prime on camera for sending guns. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because a channel with more than five million subscribers went silent and people keep asking whether he is all right. If that changes, this entry will say so.
