Ryan Higa (NigaHiga)

Ryan Higa
  • Born: June 6, 1990 
  • From Hilo, Hawaii 
  • Creator of NigaHiga (Youtube Channel) & HigaTV(Youtube Channel) 
  • Graduated from UNLV


How I Came Across Him/My Impression of Him:

  • Ryan Higa is Youtube Old School. The first time I saw him was on "How to be Ninja" and "How to be Emo."  But according to my knowledge these videos no longer exist due to copyrighted material. 
  • He is hilarious, his character has evolved over the many years. 
  • Ryan Higa has now become an international figure that is we known across the globe. 
  • His new content has moved from short skits, to colloborations with other well known youtube stars. 
  • In a recent interview in Singapore, Ryan discussed his interests the people he wishes to be around. 
  • From this interview we learned that his interest in people of the opposite gender has the characteristics of: not clingy, outgoing, etc. So pretty much a girl that can be around as a friend, but doesnt have to stay really close together. 
  • His impact to the Asian-American culture is tremendous.  He brings to light small stereotypes in a subtle way to introduce Asian Culture to American Culture. 
  • I love the way he brings happiness to all of his videos. But I have noticed that he is very Bi-Polar. The way he acts on and off a set is completely different.  He isn't all ways Mr.GoHappy, he is very subtle and common in other situations   This is revealed in other channels "Behind the Scenes" that show his content. 
  • So in other words he is like a really great guy that contributes to the Asian American Culture on the Internet.
