Reality Marble acquires Casual Navigation and Modern Martial Artist

Reality Marble is a brand new media company investing in the YouTube space – and we’re pleased to announce our first channel acquisitions.

Reality Marble has acquired the established edutainment channels Casual Navigation and The Modern Martial Artist. We are thrilled to make these hugely popular channels the first pieces in our portfolio, establishing Reality Marble’s commitment to high-quality video content. 

In this article, we’ll tell you more about these channels and our plans for the future. Let’s get started.

Casual Navigation

Casual Navigation is a maritime edutainment channel with 593,000 subscribers. With more than 110 videos posted so far, Casual Navigation aims to make the complex maritime world accessible for everyone to explore. It employs expert storytelling, engaging animations and visual explainers to answer the questions you’ve always wanted to ask about shipping.

The channel has so far racked up more than 129.5 million views. Here are the top performers:

Why are ships painted red below the waterline? – 12 million views

How stabilisers reduce a ship’s roll – 7.4 million

What happens after you flush the toilet on a cruise ship? – 4.9 million

Casual Navigation boasts a knowledgeable and highly engaged community. Reading the comments on a Casual Navigation video is an education in itself. 

At Reality Marble, we can’t wait to delight the audience with even better maritime content.

The Modern Martial Artist

The Modern Martial Artist is one of YouTube’s leading combat sports analysis channels. It currently has 883,000 subscribers and has notched up more than 253 million views across more than 380 videos. 

What makes this channel special – and super accessible – is that it takes fighters that the world knows and loves, like Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao, and breaks down their techniques step by step. Finally, fighting fans get to see how their heroes actually do what they do.

Here are The Modern Martial Artist’s best-performing videos:

The Thrilla in Manila explained – 16 million views

The Drunken Master, Emanuel Augustus – 12 million

Mike Tyson, Crazy drills that became KOs – 11 million

As well as conventional boxing, you’ll find videos on kickboxing, Muay Thai, MMA and other popular fighting styles, all with millions of views and tens of thousands of comments.

Reality Marble is ready to take this channel to the next level with new stories, collaborations and explainers. Fans are sure to be knocked out!

Looking to the future

So, what will Reality Marble’s strategic investment bring to these ground-breaking channels?

Firstly, our backing will help these channels scale content. Our expert teams of writers, animators and producers are primed and ready to deliver better content more often. Existing subscribers will be delighted with this new approach to content creation, which will also significantly expand follower numbers. 

We will also explore new monetisation opportunities, including sponsorships, brand collaborations and premium content. Of course, we’re incredibly selective about who we work with, as the viewer experience always comes first.

Finally, Reality Marble’s investment signifies a commitment to making excellent content for our valued subscribers. We know the role that educational content plays in our viewers’ lives, and we can’t wait to inspire the next generation of martial artists and maritime designers.
