Casey Neistat Wiki/Biography, Family and Brother
Casey Neistat was born in Gales Ferry, Connecticut, USA, to parents Amy Neistat and Barry Neistat, with Van Neistat, Dean Neistat, and Jordan Neistat as siblings. Casey discovered his passion for filmmaking at a very early age, but the road to realizing his dream became difficult when he dropped out of school in year two at the age of 15. He never had the opportunity to return to school, instead, he took a job as a dishwasher in a seafood restaurant and as a short-term cook at the Mystic. When he was 20 years old, the YouTuber left Connecticut for New York City in search of greener pastures. He had an apartment a few blocks away from the World Trade Center in the Tribeca district and got his first job in the city as a bicycle courier.
In 2001, Neistat and his brother Van Neistat were hired by the artist Tom Sachs to collaborate on films about the artist’s sculptures. This seemed to be his first breakthrough in filmmaking – a dream he had long wanted to fulfill. Two years later, Neistat achieved his greatest breakthrough when his 3-minute short film, “Dirty Secret” on the iPod, attracted many viewers. This was his first announcement in the YouTube world after his TV series The Neistat Brother with his brother Van, which was later bought by HBO in 2008. This short video on the iPod also became controversial as it drew people’s attention to Apple’s policy on iPod battery replacement. In 2004, Casey worked with his brother Van to film the 15-minute science videos that were featured in the 59-minute Creative Mind video.

From 2010 to 2017, he had gained over 7 million fans. By the end of 2017, Neistat turned to YouTube blogging full-time and set out to become one of the top bloggers of his time.
