HBO Max’s Euphoria is sparking endless TikTok trends, inspired by the show’s fashion, characters, and makeup. The latest trend to arise on the popular video sharing platform doesn’t feature edgy attire or makeup at all, however, instead focusing on creators’ natural eyes.
The Euphoria eye trend sounds like TikTok’s latest makeup craze, but no distracting cosmetics are involved; instead, it puts the focus on a user’s very own, unadulterated eyeball, zeroing in with intense clarity on their innate beauty.
The trend is taking over “for you” pages everywhere, as creators try their hands at the captivating new filter. Getting the right results is pretty simple, but does involve a bit of a process. Here’s how you can pull off the Euphoria eye trend for yourself.
How to do the Euphoria eye trend
Videos taking part in the Euphoria eye trend all use a relatively similar process. They also tend to align on music choice, with the majority leaning into a specific line from a remix of Bea Miller’s “feel something.” Most videos are right around 12 seconds long, with some stretching a few moments longer. All of them use the same set of lyrics from the song, however, starting as the music proclaims, “I just wanna feel something/I just wanna feel,” and gradually zooming in on a single eye as the lyrics proceed with “something really real so that I can really feel like a person again.” As the word “again” sounds, users close their eye and cut, before transitioning into a high-resolution shot of their eye.
Many comments on successful videos see viewers wondering at the shocking clarity of the reveal. Some people have struggled, in their attempts to replicate the Euphoria eye trend, to capture the same level of resolution. That’s likely because they’re doing it wrong.
To pull off the Euphoria eye trend, you’ll want to start with the sound. The audio being used for this trend can be found in many of the current uploads using #euphoria and #eye hashtags, or you can simply search for “feel something – bea miller – valen,” which is how the audio is labelled on TikTok.
Once you’ve tracked down the audio, click “use this sound” and you’ll be prepped to start filming. No filter is needed for the first part of the video, so your next step is simply to start filming. Using your front-facing camera, begin the process of zooming in on a single eye. Many people use their left eye, but that is by no means a necessity.
You’ll want to make sure you don’t dwell for too long, so keep the video short and sweet. Time it to the music, zooming in as Miller works her way through the beginning lines of the chorus, and close your eye as she says “again.”
At this point, it will be time to pause your video and employ your filter. Activate the Euphoria filter for the next part of the video, and flip your camera around. You’ll likely need a mirror — and user @jazzthornton_ recommends use of a good lamp — to ensure the best results. Use the mirror to ensure you get a good shot with your back camera, and shine a light onto your face for the most striking outcome.
From there, all you need to do start filming and open your eye. Importantly, you’ll need to switch eyes for the video’s final moments. Since you’re pivoting from your front-facing camera to your rear-facing camera, switching eyes will ensure that the video looks right.
As noted by Dexerto, it will probably take a few attempts before you manage to line everything up perfectly. Once you’ve done so, however, you should be left with a captivating video that shows off all your eye’s natural beauty.
For nearly two decades now, YouTube has been the go-to hub for all things entertainment, from movie trailers and compilations to short videos and walkthroughs. Born in 2005, it’s the video-sharing platform for just about every topic under the sun, and it’s clearly not going anywhere anytime soon. One of the most common forms of content is the “Let’s Play,” otherwise known as a video that documents the playthrough of a video game, usually including commentary from the uploader. Besides Let’s Plays, YouTube gamers post cooperative matches, both local and online, and also stream with other YouTubers.
Over the years, the rankings for the best YouTube gaming channels have fluctuated. Many YouTubers are famous for different games, typically the ones that made their channels popular. Sometimes these YouTubers stick to the games that kickstarted their careers, whereas others choose to branch out and play the latest releases to keep their content relevant.
Regardless, gamers have continued to flock to YouTube and continue the trend, uploading unique and personalized videos for their viewers to enjoy. Here’s our ranking of today’s best YouTuber gaming channels.
10. SSundee
Currently, SSundee has more than 20 million subscribers. On Sept. 14, 2010, SSundee uploaded what is considered to be his first-ever Minecraft YouTube video, titled “Minecraft Cave Adventure (1of 3),” and Minecraft is the Let’s Play series that SSundee would later become known for. SSundee has recently uploaded videos streaming the online multiplayer game Among Us to follow the latest craze that seems to be sweeping across YouTube.
Additionally, SSundee is a former member of TeamCrafted, the oldest Minecraft YouTube group before it disbanded in 2014. TeamCrafted includes BajanCanadian, Deadlox, HuskyMudKipz, JeromeASF, KermitPlaysMinecraft, Minecraft Universe, Setosorcerer and SkyDoesMinecraft.

H2ODelirious, whose real name is Jonathan, has never revealed his physical appearance online, therefore his face still remains a mystery. Delirious’ content primarily consists of him doing Let’s Plays. He frequently plays single-player games, usually in campaign mode, but also streams with friends.
Additionally, Delirious is known for his contagious and psychotically “Delirious” laughter (hence the channel name) and has over 13 million subscribers. At the moment, Delirious is uploading daily videos for Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight in anticipation of the new chapter releasing worldwide on March 8.

From the UK, Dan is one of the most subscribed and viewed YouTubers with over 26 million subscribers and 18.5 billion video views. On July 14, 2012, Dan created TheDiamondMinecart, a gaming channel whose audience consists of mostly children aged 6-14 and to which Dan can credit his rising stardom.
Moreover, DanTDM is famed for his daily reviews and Let’s Play series’ including The Diamond Dimensions, a modpack put together by Dan himself as well as Minecraft Xbox One, where he attempted to build a giant kingdom in Survival mode.
The GameGrumps was founded by Jonathan Jafari and Arin Hanson, but Jafari was replaced by Leigh Avidan, who has been a full-time member since 2013. The channel primarily produces Let’s Play videos and now harbors multiple segments, including Game Grumps, Game Grumps VS, Steam Train, Steam Rolled, and Grumpcade.

Evan Fong, better known online as VanossGaming, is often compared to Pewdiepie, with whom he shares a similar gaming style. He joined YouTube in 2011 and proudly entertains over 25 million subscribers. He reached his peak in 2014, when he gained 6.6 million subscribers.
Vanoss is an all-for-one and one-for-all gamer whose content mainly includes funny montages of himself and others playing various games. Many subscribers resonate with Vanoss’ aura of simply enjoying video games with friends and having a good time. Vanoss has the most highly acclaimed editing of any other YouTube channel.
theRadBrad joined YouTube in 2006 almost 20 years ago. He often plays the latest and most popular video games and uploads his content consistently. Sometimes, Brad reacts to trailers and gameplay footage or uploads reviews. He has a calm and uniquely relaxing style of commentary that stands out from the louder and more flamboyant YouTubers. However, his chilled disposition only serves to make it all the more entertaining when he does suffer distress or panic from an intense gameplay. As of 2022, theRadBrad has over 13 million subscribers.
One of the most instantly recognizable YouTubers of all time, Jacksepticeye, identifiable by his Irish accent and loud-mouthed commentary, is a gamer, vlogger and founder of the clothes company CLOAK along with Markiplier. He became popular due to his energetic personality, gentle nature, and (previously) signature green hair.
His YouTube channel is the most subscribed channel in Ireland after starting up in 2012. After 10 years, Jack has accumulated over 28 million subscribers. He often uploads videos based on trending games and often streams in the common Let’s Play walkthrough style.

Furthermore, Markiplier gained substantial followers and appraisal for his self-made interactive series “A Heist with Markiplier” and “A Date with Markiplier.” Mark has accumulated more than 17 billion channel views and 32 million subscribers.
It may have been expected, but PewDiePie tops the list. Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, known online as PewDiePie, was originally known for his horror playthroughs (such as Amnesia). Nowadays, however, he leans more toward freestyle/skit humor, vlogs, and satirical commentary.
Felix joined YouTube in 2010 and has since become the fourth most-subscribed YouTube channel with 110 million subscribers. As of 2022, PewDiePie uploads a mixed match of content, ranging from video games, day-in-the-life vlogs, and videos featuring other YouTubers such as Jacksepticeye and Markiplier, who are good friends of his.
Videos of a very old man are sparking rumors about his age on TikTok.
Popular theories put the man at a baffling 163 years old, nearly 40 years older than the oldest documented human in history. According to Guinness World Records, the oldest “fully authenticated age” any human has ever reached is 122 years and 164 days. A French woman named Jeanne Louise Calment currently holds the honor of “oldest person ever,” but would easily be unseated by TikTok’s 163-year-old man, if the claims are true.
Who is TikTok’s 163-year-old man?
TikTok discovered its oldest star when his daughter, user @auyary13, posted a video of him in late 2021. The first video to garner attention simply follows Auyary as she makes her way over to her father, who is seated on the floor of a simple home. He smiles and beckons her over when she approaches, and the two seem to embrace.
The man appears to be younger in this video than he is in most of Auyary’s uploads. He still has hair, and his face appears to be far more filled out. Later videos show the same man at a much more advanced age, based on his very thin limbs and lack of hair. He also appears to be struggling far more with his health in later videos.
Auyary’s father appears, based on his attire, to be a Monk based in Thailand. Some of the most popular videos on the account simply feature the old man sitting up, talking with his daughter, or laying in bed. People seem fascinated with the elderly Monk, filling the account’s comment sections up with questions and observations about him. While some seem somewhat disrespectful — cracking jokes and drawing comparisons — the majority of commenters simply seem fascinated at the sight of someone who’s clearly lived such a long life.
Is he really 163 years old?
The rumor that Auyary’s father is 163 years old quickly spread on the app, following his first few appearances in videos. It didn’t take long for his daughter to debunk the bafflingly high age, however, and clarify that her father is only 109 years old, according to Dexerto. Still an impressive age, by almost anyone’s estimation, but not quite the record-breaker many people initially suspected.
Auyary’s videos started to go viral in the early months of 2022, particularly following news that her father was headed to the hospital. The videos announcing, and detailing, his journey to the hospital each have hundreds of thousands of views, along with comments from concerned viewers asking about his health.
Auyary’s father got even more popular following his return from the hospital. Later videos show him in a medical bed that appears to be situated in the family’s home, but he seems much improved. He is able, in the videos, to feed himself and sit up, on occasion. In one, he even dances.
Viewers were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of what Auyary’s father used to look like after the creator uploaded a video showing him in his youth. Using the My Heritage app, Auyary managed to track down an old image of her father. The simple video appears to use a filter to give life to the image, allowing her father to furrow his brow, glance around, and move his head slightly.
A few of Auyary’s videos have grown to immense popularity, collecting tens of millions of views. The most viewed video on her account shows her father in a seated position with his hands on a young child’s head. The video has more than 74 million views and tens of thousands of comments from supportive viewers.
Some people shared theories that Auyary’s father is practicing Sokushinbutsu, a form of incredible self-discipline that historically saw several dozen Monks achieve self-mummification. The practice is extremely rare, and has only been identified in a few handfuls of cases, but has been recorded in several instances between 1081 and 1903, according to All That’s Interesting. Also known as becoming “a Buddha in this body,” Sokushinbutsu has primarily been recorded in Japan, rather than Thailand, where Auyary’s family appears to live.
That doesn’t make the theory impossible, but it seems more like conjecture than anything. Auyary has yet to confirm any of these theories via her TikTok, so — for now — we’ll assume that her father simply lived a remarkably long life. He seems to have passed away somewhat recently, based on a TikTok shared by Auyary on Jan. 31. The video shows as she approaches a plaque with her father’s face on it. Near the bottom, dates — recorded using the Buddhist calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar used in much of the world — indicate that he passed away in 2563.
Based on some quick math, that seems to indicate that he passed away in 2016. The videos populating Auyary’s page seem to be paying homage to her father’s wonderful life, and bring joy to many who’ve also lost beloved family members.
When an influencer motivated by peace and love gets invited to a hen weekend, the last thing she anticipates is her past coming back to haunt her — but that’s precisely what happens in the upcoming horror movie, Sissy.
Per Deadline, the trailer for Sissy dropped today, and the 2022 Official Selection makes its debut on March 11 at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema during the SXSW film festival.
Cecilla and Emma, best friends growing up, reunite after years of growing apart just days before Emma’s bachelorette weekend. At first, all seems well. However, viewers soon discover that things aren’t exactly as they seem, and tensions begin to brew. Is Cecilia’s personality a facade, or is childhood jealousy rearing its ugly head once again?
SXSW provided a full synopsis for the horror-comedy film:
“Cecilia and Emma were tween-age BFFs who were going to grow old together and never let anything come between them, until Alex arrived on the scene. Twelve years later, Cecilia is a successful social media influencer living the dream of an independent, modern millennial woman… until she runs into Emma for the first time in over a decade. Emma invites Cecilia away on her bachelorette weekend at a remote cabin in the mountains, where Alex proceeds to make Cecilia’s weekend a living hell. #triggered”
Any scorned ex-bestie or would-be social media influencer will be spooked by Sissy and the realistic way it highlights jealousy, friendships, and frenemies.
