Christopher Michael Dixon, popularly known as ChrisMD, is a British YouTuber born on June 10, 1996. 

Chris’s passion is primarily for doing football challenges with his friends but he has also made popular non-football-related football challenges. 👍

Rising to fame with his FIFA (presently known as EA Sports FC) videos ChrisMD has become a household name in the YouTube community.

To many, Chris is a humble British bloke who is able to do what he loves and share it with his mates. (Sorry for the British-ness but it had to be done… 😅)

His popularity came from a time when YouTube viewership was growing, and there was a trend for authentic real-life videos, which allowed Chris to showcase the camaraderie and chemistry of his friend group for the world to see.

Who is ChrisMD?

ChrisMD, originally known as Sirhcchris2010, launched his YouTube channel on July 6, 2010. 

He initially uploaded Call of Duty: Black Ops content before shifting his focus to FIFA, where he found major success.

Beyond YouTube, ChrisMD is active on other social media platforms, boasting an impressive 1.4 million followers on Instagram and over 1.05 million followers on Twitter. 

His influence reaches far and wide, making him one of the most recognized content creators in the football and gaming niche.

ChrisMD Is One Of The Best Footballer Amongst Youtubers

What makes Chris stand out in the YouTube space is that he is a pretty good footballer. ⚽

He has fantastic dribbling abilities and a good kicking technique to make up for his smaller physicality.

This has led to some amazing football moments in his football challenges as well as in several high-profile charity matches, including the Wembley Cup and Sidemen F.C.’s annual charity match.

His entertaining football challenge has even led to collaborations with famous footballers such as Alexis Sánchez, Kevin De Bruyne, and even the one and only Cristiano Ronaldo. 🤯

Viral Videos of ChrisMD 

One of ChrisMD’s most popular videos involves a football challenge with Manchester City where he teamed up with another popular football YouTuber, Miniminter, who is a member of the UK group known as The Sidemen.

The video featured Kevin De Bruyne, Leroy Sané, and Raheem Sterling, and had a ridiculous moment when the football hit De Bruyne in the face.

The high-energy video amassed millions of views and became an instant hit among football fans.

Back in the 2010s, there was a fascinating obsession with FIFA pack openings. 

There was something exciting and satisfying for viewers to see their favourite YouTuber pull a top-rated football player after spending thousands of dollars and countless hours opening FIFA packs.

Many YouTubers were competing to have the best FIFA pack pulls and Chris had very good pack luck that went viral.

Not many football fans get to meet their idol and none get as big as Cristiano Ronaldo (arguably the most famous athlete worldwide).

Even better, Chris was able to get Ronaldo onto his YouTube video and got him to react to Chris’s own football clips. 

It was interesting to see how even the biggest internet personalities look nervous and shy around global superstars.

Their awkward interactions nonetheless made for a viral hit on YouTube.

ChrisMD’s Social Media Influence 

ChrisMD’s YouTube has a total of 6.1 million subscribers and 515 videos. To date, he has amassed almost 1.6 billion views.
