W2S

Harry Lewis, known online as W2S or Wroetoshaw, is a British digital content creator, streamer, and internet personality from Guernsey. He gained widespread prominence through his individual video channels and as a member of the British YouTube collective known as the Sidemen. Alongside his media career, he is a co-owner of several commercial ventures spanning apparel, dining, and beverage industries.

Lewis was born on November 24, 1996, in Guernsey. He spent his early childhood residing in Alderney before moving back to Guernsey with his family in 2004, where he subsequently attended Guernsey Grammar School. Raised alongside two younger siblings, Rosie and Josh, he has frequently stated that he has French heritage.

Before launching his main channel, Lewis tested various concepts across multiple YouTube accounts. In 2012, he established his main channel under the name Wroetoshaw, taking inspiration from the surnames of football players Nicky Wroe and Tom Bradshaw. His early video uploads primarily focused on association football and the FIFA gaming series. After being approached by creator Zerkaa at a gaming event in New York City, Lewis became the final member to join the Sidemen in 2014.

Throughout his online career, Lewis achieved significant platform milestones. In 2017, he was awarded a YouTube Diamond Play Button after surpassing ten million subscribers. The following year, he earned a Guinness World Record for achieving the highest subscriber and view counts for a dedicated FIFA channel. Although his primary channel amassed over 16 million subscribers by 2025, he ceased uploading to it after 2020 and transitioned to posting content on his secondary channel, W2S+. In 2022, Lewis won a $2.5 million private jet during a competition featured in a MrBeast video, subsequently gifting the aircraft to his siblings.

In addition to his personal media output, Lewis co-founded multiple commercial businesses alongside the Sidemen. These include the brand Sidemen Clothing, launched in 2014; the restaurant chain Sides, established in November 2021 alongside Reef; the spirits line XIX Vodka, launched in October 2022; and the breakfast product Best Cereal, introduced in March 2024 in partnership with Mornflake. Independent of the group, Lewis opened an interactive football challenge venue named Kicktown at The O2 Arena in late 2019, allowing visitors to attempt and film various football tricks.

Lewis has also written and recorded musical releases. In August 2017, he published the diss track "KSI Sucks" directed at KSI and RiceGum, followed by another track titled "KSI Exposed," which he later removed from YouTube. As a featured artist on Sidemen group tracks, he appeared on "Merry Merry Christmas" as well as "This or That," which reached number 23 on the UK Independent Singles Chart and number 14 on the New Zealand Hot Singles Chart.

In his personal life, Lewis is a supporter of Chelsea Football Club and has shared that he experiences koumpounophobia, the fear of buttons. Over the course of his career, he has received media recognition, including being named one of the nineteen biggest British YouTube personalities by Business Insider in 2016 and being selected for the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list in the Sports & Games category in 2026.
