RackaRacka is a YouTube channel run by the Australian twins Danny and Michael Philippou (b. 1992[2] ), based in Adelaide. They are known for intense live action combat videos,[3] [4] [5] and they are known for making videos based on McDonald's mascot, Ronald McDonald. Some of their videos have been noted for being remarkably gruesome.[6] A handful have even been flagged on YouTube due to the controversy. The channel has more than 2,000,000 subscribers as of March 2016. [7]

Their first huge success was the video Harry Potter vs Star Wars which attracted 7 millions views in a week.[2] This video was the winner in the Best Comedy and Best Overall categories at the 2014 Australian Online Video Award.[8] In September 2015, they won Best International YouTube Channel at the 6th Annual Steamy Awards.[9]
