Jerma985, born Jeremy Harrington on September 22, 1985, in the gritty streets of Boston, Massachusetts, has carved out a quirky corner of the internet as a YouTube sensation. At 40, this Virgo gamer-turned-creator exploded onto the scene with his sharp-witted commentary on titles like Grand Theft Auto and Team Fortress 2, blending humor with raw gameplay that hooked fans overnight. He kicked things off humbly, launching his channel on June 11, 2011, with a shaky first video: a TF2 spy run on the Goldrush map, his voice cracking through the nerves.
What started as solo streams quickly evolved. Jerma lent his gravelly tones to voice acting gigs in indie hits like Apotheon and Cryptark, proving his range beyond the screen. But animation? That’s where he really flexes his creative muscles.
Boston roots run deep; he still shouts out his hometown pride in videos, and in a softer moment, he spotlighted his niece Harper in an August 2013 clip, capturing family chaos amid the pixelated frenzy. Jerma thrives on collabs too, teaming up frequently with Star_ for chaotic sessions that feel like hanging out with rowdy friends. Back in 2013, he joined CaptainSparklez’s squad for a Charity TF2 Mixup, turning virtual battles into real-world good.
Through it all, Jerma’s feed stays unpredictable, from epic fails to heartfelt rants, reminding us why he’s more than a YouTuber—he’s a Boston-bred storyteller in a digital wild west.
