Lui Calibre is a YouTube gamer and occasional Twitch streamer who lives in San Diego. He is known for his high-pitched 'squeaker' voice, which he uses throughout his videos to impersonate an innocent child. His GTA character wears the now Lui Calibre famous brown monkey mask with Canadian parachute bag. His character in Gmod is either BMO, "Finn and Jake's living console" from Adventure Time, or a static Sonic the Hedgehog. Lui has volunteered and worked at pet shelters for over 20 years.
Following 2016, Lui Calibre became inactive on his YouTube channel, though would occasionally make minor appearances in videos and livestreams of the other members of the crew. In 2022, Lui Calibre returned to YouTube, making daily livestreams and becoming a more proactive and prominent member in videos.
Channel
His content primarily focuses on Grand Theft Auto V gameplay, with a majority of his videos being funny moments with his well known gang of friends. Lui met Vanoss and crew back in the days of a GTA mission, the mission was never completed and the friendship started from there. As well as GTA content, he has also posted Garry's Mod where he likes to run around and make cool videos. He also owned a dog named Doggy, where it had one time peed all over Lui's laptop keyboard and destroyed it.
Apart from GTA and Gmod, Lui has also played games such as Borderlands 2, Call of Duty 1, DOOM, WWE 2K14, Far Cry, and numerous other games. His solo content includes Squeaker Squad IRL, a series revolving around Lui performing his squeaker voice throughout streets and places in America. He also performed the squeaker voice throughout Call of Duty games, and in his free time he is going full clutch on twitch speedrunning his favorite N64 classics Legend of Zelda, Diddy Kong Racing, and Mario Kart.
He joined YouTube around early 2009 and uploaded his first video in May of 2010. He first uploaded videos of Red Dead Redemption and Halo, and has also held a job on testing prototypes for CPUs, which he then set his mind on other goals from there.
He posted a tweet stating that "he would not know what an active fan base is, as he only created videos for money". Because of this tweet he has lost 2.4% of his followers and 0.8% of his subscribers on Twitter and YouTube. His reason for the halt in his uploads was he stated this on his Twitter, "There's just no money in it."
Since late 2017, Lui has once again started appearing on his friends videos.
On July 24 2019, he posted his first video for the first time in three years, the same date that he suddenly stopped uploading in 2016. Titled "3 Years Later", the video was a short livestream of him updating his fans on what he has been doing and future videos he will be making soon.
He made an appearance at Twitchcon, and in November 2019 uploaded a video of him and Daithi De Nogla streaming Minecraft. He had admitted that he will make random uploads, but still appears in videos with his friends.
He made another appearance in November 2022 on a video of Vanoss playing Grand Theft Auto V, alongside Delirious, Terroriser, and Velocity.[1] He would also start to become more active on his channel.
In 2023, following his return, Lui Calibre became a more active member of the group, becoming more prominent in videos, where he often played alongside Vanoss, Terroriser and Nogla, and occasionally, with Delirious, MsVixen (Lanai), and Wildcat. In the same year, he would start a new series with Vanoss where the pair would playthrough a horror game, with Vanoss usually playing the game while Lui spectates, though this changes depending on the game they play. These videos range from 40 minutes to 1 hour in length, making them some of the longest videos on Vanoss's channel.
