Appearing on the Kyle and Jackie O radio show during a promotional tour of Australia, Logan Paul said: "Do you want the numbers? Alright.

The pair have raked in $45million (£36million) from Prime sales in January alone, despite reporting problems with distribution and stock.

New paperwork reveals that KSI saw assets in his business hit £11.9million last year.

In a recent episode of Paul's podcast, Impaulsive, KSI said: "I don't think any brand has gone to this level so quickly."

"I feel like we are a breath of fresh air compared to all of our competitors.

"We're destroying them."

He added: "We're actually part of the brand and showing this is our baby.

Logan Paul said: "I think we've created a masterclass in terms of how to market using social media.

"We've done a good job leveraging the people that we try and keep entertained.

"We've filled a niche in the market that didn't exist, by doing the wackiest s***.

"We got in Prime mascots and shadow boxed."

Fights broke out in supermarkets when Prime first launched, as fans jostled to get their hands on the drink.

KSI slammed third-party profiteers charging thousands of pounds for the drink, which retails for £1.99.

The Sun revealed that nutrition experts say the drink might actually make people less hydrated, and should not be recommended to children.

It comes after the duo paid for a Prime commercial to be featured during one of the Super Bowl's many ad breaks.

Companies typically pay millions for thirty-second slots during the breaks, and it is understood that KSI and Logan Paul forked out a similar amount to promote their "hydration drink".

Prime recently became an official sponsor of the UFC, even though lightweight Paddy Pimblett slammed its sugar content while promoting his own sports drink.
