Caleb Logan

Caleb’s journey to fame was totally unexpected. The family vlogging channel was actually made for Hayley, wherein all the three kids became a part of. It is yet impenetrable that Caleb Logan is actually dead. Caleb was only 13 when the news hit the headlines. Still in his time in Bratayleys, he was successful in making people love him.

Caleb was the break out YouTube star of his family. Their family YouTube channel consists of mostly every day, middle-class American family life: baseball games, baking, and trampolining. The most attractive part of their videos was the titles used by them. Titles like, ‘Just Hangin’ Around The House’, and ‘Sick In Plane’ sounded like daily life stories. This YouTube family’s most watched video ‘I’m Never Going At The Park Again’ has raked up to 23 million views and their fan base spreads in multiple platforms: Vine, Instagram, and Facebook. They presently have more than two million subscribers.

Caleb at this young age was the owner of his own channel “Blazenoutlaws” and he usually uploaded Minecraft videos. Caleb also had another channel, FlimsyArrow, on which he posted about playing the video game Minecraft. That channel had over 113,000 subscribers. Not only this, he also starred in a channel ‘Truthplusdare’ with his sister. He then launched a channel collaborating with his sisters by the name ‘OMMyGoshTV’.

Caleb used to be the Monday spot on YouTube channel called truthplusdare, which was again run by Bratayleys. On truthplusdare every week, they get a dare and truth and they have to do the truthplusdare. Truthplusdare today has more than 170,000 subscribers.

Logan left this channel to join ‘OMMyGoshTV’, where in every week there will be a theme. The theme will be hidden in the video and the members of the channel will chose a random person, if the person is able to guess the theme right they provide them a shoutout. OMMyGoshTV has more than lakh subscribers. Their introductory video had more than three lakh views.

Caleb was a very hilarious and fun loving person. He could light up the room his wits. In addition, the same quality can be seen in his videos, Caleb’s video in his family vlog was very refreshing and could lighten up any one’s mind. Anyone having a bad day would only have to watch his video to feel fresh.

Apart from this he was very lovable and also a down to earth person. He had immense love towards his sisters. He was a constant support system to his sisters. He would find time to play with them and teach them baseball. This proved that he was an apt brother for his sisters.

The most unfortunate event that ever happened to the Bratayley family was the death of their eldest child, Caleb. Unluckily Caleb passed away on October 1 2015 at 19:08 hours due to natural causes, which was later announced as Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy which is when the fat surrounding the heart expands. It is said that this syndrome is usually treatable when detected but in his case, it was not detected.

The family shared Caleb’s final video on 3 October in which they announced the death Of Caleb. The post said Caleb has passed away from natural causes the previous evening. “This has come as a shock to all of us. Words cannot express how much we will miss him” it read, alongside a picture of Caleb and his sister.

Caleb’s overnight death created much havoc among his fans and the people around the globe. Online people started questioning this death as mysterious. Under pressure from the internet community and numerous enquires nationally and globally , the Anne Arundel police department released a statement clarifying that no criminal investigation was taking place and there were no suspicious factor or suspicious foul play.

The family stayed out of any kind of social media saying that “Bear with us while we deal with this tragedy as a family.” But they eventually did return to social media, saying that they wanted to focus on the celebration of life and not on their private grief of losing their Caleb. Although many are distressed, his family brings him up occasionally, to keep memory alive.
