Two of my mates
we're a bit older at 37 :)
As for Jacob, I don't particularly like his stuff; it's without doubt ego driven to an extreme, but that's like how teenagers are, full of the quite blatant self-indulgent, "look at me" factor, which is why they come across as being so ridiculous to the rest of us who come out the other side of being one. He'll learn to take on board criticism or he'll have no career ahead of him, it's just part of growing up. I'm sure we all were the same at that age, so i'll forgive him on that front. It's not as if i've ever seen the guy post a video containing malice, hatred, or anger to be honest; just him and his mates having fun :)
EDIT: We, of course, didn't have the internet in the eighties to post the crap we were playing around with

Agreed
A combination of his age, his (understandably) like-minded peers and the availability of Youtube could be contributing factors. If he wishes to follow in your friends' footsteps, godspeed to the man and I hope his learning curve will be good to him.
Admittedly, it was me who brought this latest creation to /link/'s attention and not Jacob himself. In realisation this could be interpreted as Jacob no longer doing the shameless self-promoting that I criticised him for, which introduces me to this very tasty slice of humble pie
