Viral YouTubers Credit God for Their Stunning Success: ‘The Lord Just Took It to New Levels’ By  for Faith Wire News

Faith is the driving force for five guys who went viral for perfecting all kinds of crazy trick-shots.

The Dude Perfect group — Tyler Toney, Garrett Hilbert, Cory Cotton, Coby Cotton, and Cody Jones — were an accidental success. In fact, they never sought out to be a YouTube sensation, hosting a channel with more than 50 million subscribers, but here they are. And they give God all the glory for their success.
