Questions people ask
Who is Sharky from Beta Squad?
Sharky is a YouTuber from North West London and one of the five founding members of Beta Squad, the London group he films with alongside Chunkz, Niko Omilana, King Kenny and AJ Shabeel. Famous Birthdays says he became popular for football vlogs and FIFA gameplay, then added challenges and pranks, and that he, Chunkz and AJ first formed a group called MANDM. He told Tubefilter in October 2019 that he found out he lived near Chunkz around his second video, that his only job had been as a steward at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, and that without Chunkz and the others he “would have stopped doing YouTube after a couple of months.” Dexerto listed him in midfield for Beta Squad against AMP at Selhurst Park on June 2, 2024, and today he is also a podcaster and the manager of SDS FC in Baller League UK.
What happened to Sharky from Beta Squad? Why did Sharky leave Beta Squad?
Sharky has not left Beta Squad: as of November 2026 he is still a member, in anything we could source. Every upload on the Beta Squad channel from May 2 to 6 Jamaicans vs 1 Secret British Person on October 31, 2026 lists “Sharky: @sharky” among the five members, and we found no report in an accepted outlet that he is leaving. Two things feed the question. His main YouTube channel has not posted since I Survived a 1 STAR Disneyland Experience on January 31, 2025; his weekly videos now go to his second channel, Sharky More, most recently a snack challenge with Chunkz on November 4, 2026. And the group runs in seasons, so its channel goes quiet for months at a time. Sharky More also has an older upload titled I Finally Moved Back in With Beta Squad!, about the group’s house, not the group.
What is SDS FC? Did Sharky win the Baller League?
SDS FC is Sharky’s team in Baller League UK, the six-a-side league shown on Sky Sports and YouTube, and it won the league’s first title. Reuters reported that SDS beat MVPs United, the team linked to Maya Jama, 4-2 in the final at London’s O2 arena on June 12, 2025, with 100,000 watching on YouTube, and quoted Sharky: “It means everything ... I always believed.” Per Sky Sports, SDS lost the Season 2 final to Wembley Rangers and went out of Season 3 in the semi-final, 3-1 to Niko Omilana’s NDL FC, in spring 2026. Season 4 is under way: on November 3, 2026 Baller League UK posted highlights of the “Beta Squad Derby,” NDL FC against SDS FC, titled HUGE BRAWL shocks Niko and Sharky in the Beta Squad Derby. SDS is also the name of his football podcast, which its first episode called Sharky Does Sports.
What happened to Sharky and Kenny?
Sharky and King Kenny have not described a falling out in anything we could source, and as of November 2026 they are still in Beta Squad together, both listed in the group’s October 31, 2026 upload. On October 14, 2026 Sharky posted BETA SQUAD BEST FRIEND TEST FT KENNY on Sharky More, whose description says the two “compete in a Best Friends Test to test their friendship,” and Kenny is in his October 21, 2026 Beta Squad Mystery Box Challenge. Kenny’s own story, including The Celebrity Traitors, is in his entry.
Why did Sharky go to jail?
We found no report of an arrest of Sharky from Beta Squad in a major news outlet, and he has not said he was jailed. What is public: prison is a setting Beta Squad has filmed in for content, in group videos such as LAST TO LEAVE THE PRISON.
What happened to Sharky’s arm? Why did Sharky throw up, and what happened to his hair?
Sharky has not discussed an arm injury in anything we could source, and we found no report of one in an accepted outlet, so we do not repeat one. We also could not source a specific moment where he threw up, so we do not guess which video the question comes from. On his hair, his own channel has a video titled The Truth About My Hair..., from about 2019, with more than 1.1 million views; we have not verified what he says in it, so we do not characterize it.
Is this Sharky from The Prodigy, or Sharky’s restaurant?
No, this entry is about Sharky from Beta Squad, the London YouTube group. Sharky from The Prodigy, the dance act, is a different person, and Sharky’s restaurants and bars, and the film Sharky’s Machine have nothing to do with him. We also found nothing linking this Sharky to Scuba Steve or to Minecraft videos; his channel started on football and FIFA.
How old is Sharky from Beta Squad? Where is he from?
Sharky is 30 as of November 2026, born December 31, 1995 in Utrecht, Netherlands, per Famous Birthdays. Tubefilter described him in October 2019 as from North West London, the same area as Chunkz, and quoted him saying, “I’m from the same area, but I’ve moved around a lot.”
What is Sharky’s real name?
Sharky’s real name is Sharmarke Mohamud, as reported by Reuters on June 13, 2025 after SDS FC won Baller League UK. The same name is listed as author of his SDS Podcast. He started on YouTube as afcSharky, per Famous Birthdays, and posts as @sharky on YouTube and TikTok and @ohnosharky on Instagram and X.
Where can I watch Sharky?
Sharky appears in the group videos on the Beta Squad channel, which has about 12.2 million subscribers, and has posted weekly since October 7, 2026 on Sharky More, which has about 255,000 subscribers, as of November 2026. His main YouTube channel has about 1.51 million subscribers and 200 videos, including Who Is The SMARTEST Beta Squad Member?, GUESS THE FOOTBALLER and FOOTBALL CHALLENGES vs MIKEL ARTETA. He is on TikTok as @sharky, on Instagram and X as @ohnosharky, streams on Twitch, and hosts the SDS Podcast, which has more than 400 episodes, the latest on November 6, 2026. SDS FC’s matches are on the Baller League UK channel.
What is Sharky’s net worth?
Sharky does not publish a number and neither do we.
Is Sharky Muslim? What about his ethnicity, family or girlfriend?
Not something we cover.
Who represents Sharky?
As of November 2026, no agent or manager is named publicly for Sharky; his YouTube channel and TikTok bio each list a business email of his own. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because people keep asking whether he left Beta Squad, and the group’s uploads and the Baller League record answer most of it. If that changes, this entry will say so.
Our read
Ames Create does not work with Sharky (Beta Squad). This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.
The format. Football is the thread. He came up through FIFA and football challenge videos, runs a football podcast with his friends, and manages a Baller League side. In Beta Squad he is one of five voices in game-show formats, and on Sharky More he hosts the same kind of game himself: quizzes, “Don’t Push The Wrong Button” and Guess the YouTuber, with Chunkz, Darkest Man or Harry Pinero as guests.
Why it travels. His biggest numbers come through the group. Beta Squad videos built around him, such as FIND THE GOLD DIGGER - SHARKY EDITION and COME DINE WITH ME - SHARKY EDITION, passed 8 million views each, well above his own channel’s best, such as Who Is The SMARTEST Beta Squad Member? at about 3.7 million. TikTok is his largest own platform at about 2.3 million followers, and the Baller League gives him a weekly live audience on YouTube during each season.
Brand fit. Football brands first: boots, kits, football games and anything that wants to sit inside Baller League or a Premier League conversation for a young UK audience. Snacks and food fit his challenge formats. Expect group deals to run through Beta Squad and his own through the business email on his channel.
