From Magnet Fishing to Multilingual Fame

Challenge

Slav’s Adventures is a popular English-language YouTube channel known for creative outdoor storytelling - from magnet fishing to mysterious frozen finds under the ice. With 3.5 million subscribers, Slav had already built a substantial following, but reaching audiences beyond the US and UK was difficult. He had previously explored dubbing with voice actors, but the process was expensive, time-consuming, and hard to scale.

I’d been thinking about localization for years, but hiring voice actors, managing translations, and re-editing was a mess. What stood out immediately with Linguana was the fairness of their model.

Solution

Linguana partnered with Slav to launch six fully localized channels - Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, German, and Polish - managed end-to-end by our team. With zero effort from Slav’s side, the new channels quickly took off. In one standout case, his original English "Bombardiro Crocodilo" video earned 880K views in 10 days, while the Spanish version hit 1.2M in just 72 hours.
