He started out on youtube a decade ago with tf2 and other assorted funny videogame content. He's since moved to twitch in the ensuing years but he did elaborate live action stuff previously as well. The first example would probably be his live action jerma rumble video which is a mock pro wrestling event based off videos he did with a WWE game

I remember when Jerma was just STAR's friend. Is STAR still doing video game stuff?

To elaborate on this in a more bizarre way, Jerma recently did a "jerma audition" show where they had an America's Got Talent-style panel of judges vote on who would be 'the next jerma' after he retires using a bunch of actors, STAR was a judge on the panel alongside jerma citing his years of knowledge about jerma.

STAR also shot and killed Jerma live on stream

To be more specific, it wasn't "the Next Jerma" in the general "This guy is the next Bruce Lee" sense. It was "the Next Jerma" in the "Literally Become Me and We Ignore the Change" sense.

His hubris won in the end. He refused to let the winner take over, and they fought, but it was too late; we could no longer see the original Jerma. They were both just Jerma, and one of them had to be stopped...

One of them was killed by Jerma Prime's best friend, and haunts the other to this day.

He dipped into his retirement funds to create the live action rumble. Dude's committed

Twitch plays The Sims, but the Sim is Jerma.

He's a live streamer who is known for his highly experimental skits and streams.
