DaddyOFive

DaddyOFive is a YouTube channel and online alias of Michael Christopher "Mike" Martin (born 1982), which focused on daily vlogging and “prank” videos. The channel's videos featured Martin, his wife Heather Martin—also known by her online alias MommyOFive—and their children. In 2017, following claims that the parents were abusing their children in the prank videos, the channel became the center of a controversy, as many saw their content as extreme in nature. Created in 2015, the channel achieved success earning up to 176 million video views and around 750,000 subscribers. However, after the aforementioned controversy, all videos on the channel were removed, and the Martins stopped producing videos on the channel, aside from a formal public apology video. In September 2017 Mike and Heather Martin took an Alford plea in regards to two counts per person of Maryland state child neglect charges and received supervised probation for five years.
