Ned Fulmer

Edward Gallo "Ned" Fulmer, born on June 11, 1987, is a prominent American internet figure, author, and a key co-founder of 2ND TRY, the independent media venture of the Try Guys, which he launched with partners Keith Habersberger, Eugene Lee Yang, and Zach Kornfeld.

Before transitioning to online entertainment, Fulmer worked in a chemistry lab and later joined BuzzFeed, where he played a pivotal role in creating the video fellowship program. His journey began in Chicago, where he balanced his day job at a renewable energy lab with nighttime performances in improv and sketch comedy with renowned groups like Second City and iO Chicago, earning recognition as a "Critic's Pick" from Time Out Chicago.

Fulmer is married to Ariel Marie Fulmer (née VandeVoorde), a talented interior designer, and together they have two children. His public persona heavily emphasizes his role as a devoted husband, which has helped him cultivate a loyal fanbase, leading some outlets to label him a "wife guy."

However, his career faced a significant challenge in September 2022 when he was involved in a scandal related to an affair with a colleague. This revelation prompted the Try Guys to announce his departure from the company, marking a controversial chapter in his professional life.
