The best Sidemen videos, ranked by votes

The Sidemen are the biggest English-speaking presence on Flegm, and one of the few collectives to place several videos high in the all-time rankings. This group of British creators has built an entertainment empire on a simple but devastatingly effective idea: concept formats, spun off into recognizable series, and executed with impressive production resources.

Their signature format on Flegm is "20 women vs 1 Sidemen": a giant, hilarious speed-dating game, several editions of which (Kai Cenat, Speed) rank among the most upvoted videos on the site. Alongside it sits their other great classic, the "rich vs poor" (the famous "$20,000 vs $200 holiday"), which pits two budgets against each other on the same experience and has inspired countless imitations around the world.

Their three best entries sum up their dominance: "20 WOMEN VS 1 SIDEMEN: KAI CENAT EDITION" (the outright leader), the "Speed" edition, and the "$20,000 VS $200 HOLIDAY" from 2019, still near the top. What stands out is their longevity: a video several years old coexists with their recent releases. For anyone wanting to understand the formats that shaped modern entertainment YouTube, the Sidemen are a must, and the Flegm community knows it well.
