Bob Fitch isn't the most well known (yet) but does consistently produce the best prepared, highest quality KSP videos.

Biggest? Probably some shrieking clown with millions of subscribers, who did a single KSP vid sometime.

Yes, the "Mün or bust" is a reference to Kurt J Mac. (Who is not a shrieking clown, by the way. I like his content.) I believe the game credits still thank Kurt. He was the first "big" YouTuber to do a KSP series when the game was in its infancy, which led very directly to KSP's first significant surge in popularity and sales.

I miss Kurt's viedeos, even though by the end it got a bit painful, what with him having forgotten most of what he learned playing, and me becoming more and more experienced. He actually got worse at the game as time went by, I guess because he got burned and played less and less, and the series died its slow death.

These days, I watch the incombustible Scott Manley, 5th horseman, and Bob Fitch (A.K.A. Fellbourn). Those two are awesome,for completely different reasons: Scott is a veritable well of cool geeky knowledge, and a pilot that always surprises you with his stunts, 5th horseman really knows his stuff (though he is a bit minimalistic for my tastes, adn that's saying something) and the quality of Fellbourn's video (and audio!) edit is just superb... a bit slow sometimes, but awesome still, he talks me to sleep every monday :).

Rune. Better that some TV shows I follow!

First off thanks, and secondly... yeah that about sums me up :D My eye for design ran off with my perfect pitch and they don't even send me postcards. I'm all about the functional and once I got that, the ship's done.

(And yeah, I barely even watch TV and when I do, it's almost always after I've watched my LPers)

Bu bu... but Rune? ;.;. Lol, just kidding. My list is identical to yours, although I've yet to check out 5th horseman. I watch quite a few other smaller channels as well but if I listed them I'd be here all day :)

5th horseman is great. Especially if you like learning how to do crazy insane missions and the likes :).

Yeah, pretty much what I felt watching those latter episodes. Haha! Poor Kurt. I did enjoy his stuff, but towards the end you could tell his heart wasn't in it.

It's kind of stupid to introduce myself (self plug?!) but I'd do it in reality face to face too :)

Hi, I'm KerbalEssences and I am the biggest KSP YouTuber I know... in person :D Some of my videos went off because Squad featured them on their facebook page and since then I try not to dissappoint my newly gained subscribers. I study information technology in germany and applied for an internship at a german satellite company because of KSP! It's not like I was successful with that but the try counts too right? :D

I used to make all sorts of random videos but now I focus on somewhat entertaining remakes of real rockets and news shorts. I'm not yet sure about the name but I call them KNews or Kerbal News for now! I basically present upcoming launches and explain what their payload is used for using KSP so I can throw them people in the face who complain about rockets being wasted money! I'm still far from being good but I think I'm heading in the right direction. I'm also always looking for constructive criticism too!

I'm currently working on my website to better showcase my videos so it's still really buggy and probably won't run on IE < v10. If you want to see what I do it would be best to check it out (http://www.kerbalessences.com/). YouTube is kind of messy but you'll find me there too!

I think that's it about me. I'm still not sure if that even meets the topic. I hope it does!

*Best regards Lukas aka. KerbalEssences

Rule #1 on youTube: don't pick a name with lots of "x"s or "0"s or "1"s in your name :)

Agreed! or a Dutch name :-/ Hope you watched it.. I was stunned with the quality..

and since some people are shamelessly plugging themselves.. :-$ (all stock btw)
