The reason behind dropping out
While his reason for leaving Chalmers has often been reported as a want to focus on his YouTube career, in 2017, PewDiePie clarified, "Why does everyone get this story wrong? I dropped out of university because I didn't like it. To drop out of university to pursue YouTube, that'd just be fucking stupid. Industrial management and economics was boring as hell and I couldn't relate to fucking anyone." -
Beginning of his YouTube life
In 2010, during his time at the university, he registered a YouTube account under the name PewDiePie.
