1. He's in a band

It's not just Conor Maynard who likes his music.

The brothers are in a band together, which they've called GOAT.

Unlike conventional tunes, the pair mix comedy into their words into their tunes to create parodies.

So far, they've sung about the dilemmas of wing-maning your mates and buying your first car.

2. He was left starstruck by Jennifer Lawrence

Jack, who has admitted to having a rather big crush on Jennifer Lawrence, got the opportunity to interview his celebrity crush.

He met the actress while she was promoting the 2016 film Passengers alongside her co-star Chris Pratt.

After swooning over the Hunger Games star, the vlogger gushed: "That was the scariest 15 minutes of my life."

3. He messed up on Comic Relief

Earlier this year, dozens of YouTube stars agreed to go internet free for 24 hours to raise awareness for Comic Relief.

While most of them managed it, Jack found it a bit too difficult.

The vlogger was caught liking tweets during the campaign, which sparked a little backlash online.

But thankfully, his fans weren't deterred by the charity blunder.

4. He has spoken about getting 'arrested'

In one of Jack's YouTube videos, he spoke about a time he got told off by the police.

He remembered: "I was in public and it was very, very late.

"I really needed a wee, so I had a wee in public on some statue.

"They said it was a memorial statue, and I was like 'Oh s***, what have we done here?

"'But we Googled it and it meant nothing."

5. He's a serious nail-biter

When it comes to bad habits, Jack claims that he doesn't have many to choose from.

But he has admitted that he can't resist chomping on his nails.

In a recent interview, he admitted: "I absolutely hate it and I can't stop, it's a disgusting habit."
