4	Harold "Harry" Christopher George Lewis (born 24 November 1996), better known as [[https://www.youtube.com/user/wroetoshaw wroetoshaw]][[note]]a portmanteau of the names of footballers Nicky '''Wroe''' and Tom Brad'''shaw'''[[/note]] (or [=W2S=] for short), is a British Website/YouTube personality, mainly known as a member of the WebVideo/{{Sidemen}}.
5
6	Like all members, Harry got his start through gaming, primarily with ''[[VideoGame/FIFASoccer FIFA]]'' commentaries and challenges. While most certainly not as [[LargeHam hammy and over-the-top]] as [[Creator/{{KSI}} a certain other Sideman]], Harry was known for his moments of rage, consisting mainly of [[BigNo Big "NO!"s]] and [[RunningGag broken chairs and/or controllers]].
7
8	Harry is actually the [[SixthRanger only non-original member]] of the Sidemen[[note]]although fellow member WebVideo/Vikkstar123 officially joined the group a month after its founding[[/note]], which gave him a [[NoTrueScotsman reputation as something of an illegitimate]] for a while, alongside [[TheFriendsWhoNeverHang his chronic infrequency of joining fellow members in gameplay videos]]. However, as the Sidemen's content has evolved, his [[CrossesTheLineTwice bizarre]], [[BlackComedy off-color]] sense of humor and demeanor have made him strike out as [[BreakoutCharacter one of the group's most popular members]].
9
10	His last upload on his main channel was on 19 February 2020, as he's mainly migrated to his second channel [[https://www.youtube.com/user/BlueJumperGaming W2S+]][[note]]formerly known as "Blue Jumper Gaming" and later "[=W2SPlays=]"[[/note]] -- on which he uploads infrequently -- and his [[https://www.twitch.tv/w2s Twitch channel]], where he still plays ''FIFA'' prominently along with some other games. He also remains active with the Sidemen.
11
12	He can be found on [[http://twitter.com/wroetoshaw Twitter]], [[http://facebook.com/wroetoshaw Facebook]], and [[http://instagram.com/wroetoshaw Instagram]].
13	----
14	!!Wroetotropes:
15	* AllLowercaseLetters: His username, of course. Also his Xbox Live gamertag, wroetobeg.
16	* AwesomeMcCoolname: Believes that his name is an [[AvertedTrope aversion]], due to tons of kids responding the exact same way when he told them his name: "Oh, like Literature/HarryPotter?" An example played straight is what he wishes he was named: Tyrone.
17	* BigBrotherBully: {{Downplayed\|Trope}} with Harry and his little brother, Josh.[[note]]Not to be confused with fellow Sideman, Josh "WebVideo/{{Zerkaa}}" Bradley, who is older than Harry.[[/note]] He never goes beyond things like shameless pranks, never actually wanting to hurt him.
18	* BigGuyLittleGuy: Harry's the small one compared to his fellow [=YouTuber=] and (ex-)flatmate Calfreezy, who's over six feet tall.
19	* BigNo: Tons of them in his ''FIFA'' videos.
20	* BigYes: Also lots of them in his ''FIFA'' videos.
21	* BreadEggsMilkSquick: The first four players on Harry's "''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-jON1BlixA FIFA 16]]''" team lineup: [[WebVideo/{{Sidemen}} Tobi]], your nan, Callux, '''Hitler'''.
22	* BritishTeeth: [=SquidgetHarry=]'s teeth weren't in the best shape, as seen [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/COesG08WwAA7yIM.jpg here]] and [[https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/435602326821564416/1E5vJ8oB.jpeg here]] (complete with tooth gap).
23	* CharacterCatchphrase:
24	** "So to''daaaay''..." -- He has used this one so commonly used that it was even parodied by the other Sidemen members.
25	** "Get in there!"
26	** ''"HOW?"''
27	** He has essentially turned the BigNo into this for him. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SwfqUkTla8 See here.]]
28	* ChildProdigy: The "prodigy" part is debatable, but as select videos show, he was into content-creating on Website/YouTube far before he started his current channel.
29	* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: His vehicle colour in ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA Online]]'' sessions with the Sidemen is usually (fittingly) light blue.
30	* CoolCar:
31	** Owned a ''chrome'' Range Rover Evoque, then later claimed to have upgraded to a ''rose gold-tinted'' Ferrari 458, until he admitted that he didn't own it and he just simply had the Evoque rewrapped in a gold tint.
32	** In the summer of 2015, Harry purchased a white 50th anniversary model Lamborghini Gallardo and sold the Evoque to Calfreezy.
33	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: As luck may have it, Harry made tons of videos and had several channels back when he was younger, and he often revisits them just for the cringe factor. ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53qL6hDDPk8 Video 1]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeZNz44yxDY Video 2]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGZ6XtdMv9s Video 3]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96IEBQjk4Gw Video 4]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABcJV50D8Q0 Video 5]])
34	* EmbarrassingNickname: In his first ''Doritos Crash Course'' video, he is given the nickname "AIDS Boy", which he immediately begins protesting against.
35	* EpicFail: His ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2M-VwhcLd0 Doritos Crash Course]]'' video on his second channel, appropriately called "I'M SO S**T!", runs rampant with ample fuckups from Harry, causing him to pretty much always get dead last on every run.
36	* EveryoneLovesBlondes: Has never been {{inverted\|Trope}} to such a great extent.
37	* ExactWords[=/=]TemptingFate: In a Q&A, he tells his viewers that he now has a PO box that fans can use to send stuff to him. His only condition is that no one sends him "shit". In his second video of the subsequent ''Mail Monday'' series, he actually does get a package [[{{Squick}} with shit inside]].
38	* FanDisservice:
39	** Harry posted a really out-of-the-blue picture of [[https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xpa1/t51.2885-15/s320x320/e15/10597466_1534440346768024_1455532631_n.jpg him naked in his flat,]] allowing to see his pale ass.
40	** When his phone and Twitter account were hacked, an image of his testicles was uploaded to the account. Why did Harry have that photo on his phone to begin with is something we don't need answered, but he did confirm it was his. Although the photo was taken down on Harry's account, [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CC-zeykW8AAI4fd.jpg it's not completely erased from the web.]] '''([[NotSafeForWork NSFW]])'''
41	** After Insomnia 55 was through, Harry tweeted a picture of the Sidemen signing a wall. However, [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CNr_j1rWUAAxrCk.jpg he did leave in]] [[{{Mooning}} a little surprise]]. '''([[NotSafeForWork NSFW]])'''
42	* GrammarNazi: Calls out a lot of haters for grammatical errors in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LM8CdFUUeE his hate comments video.]]
43	* HeliumSpeech: Is prone to get extremely high-pitched when he gets excited.
44	* HumiliationConga: The poor lad has gotten hacked way too many times.
45	** For instance, his ''FIFA 15'' account getting hacked ''twice''. The first time around, it was by someone with an email named [[EvilGloating hitwitterfromthehacker@gmail.com]] who replaced Harry's club with another one. This isn't even mentioning how he had a full legend team[[note]]White legend cards are essentially yesteryear's famous footballers, and are considered to be some of the best players in FUT. This is especially so for the most valuable and recognizable one, Pele, who is 95-rated and worth almost 14 million coins. The only player to have a rating higher than that is 99-rated Team of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo, who is worth the same amount.[[/note]] on his club. However, he managed to get his account back...only to have it hacked again. This time, his club was not swapped out, but it was just infiltrated and raided. Almost all of his coins were stolen, going from a whopping 8.6 million to a measly [=7.2k=]. The hacker sold all of his best and most valuable players for millions of coins each[[note]]TOTY Toni Kroos for 1 million, Lionel Messi for 2.3 million, TOTY Ángel Di María for 3.3 million, and TOTY Sergio Ramos for 1.5 million coins.[[/note]], and just to taunt Harry even further, put four crummy cards on his transfer list. These cards consisted of 3 silver Igor '''Lol'''os, and one bronze Chris '''Hack'''ett. Yeah.
46	* IconicOutfit: His blue jumper/hoodie.
47	* ImGoingToHellForThis: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-jON1BlixA LEAKED FIFA FOOTAGE]], Harry says this after [[ItMakesSenseInContext he has Hitler scoring a goal and doing handsprings and flips.]]
48	* {{Keet}}: When he's excited... well, he's excited.
49	* LargeHam: The only guy in the Sidemen to rival KSI’s.
50	* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:In Harry's Search and Discard game with Calfreezy, Harry decides to go for Cal's goalkeeper, where he has a player. Freezy manages to make him change his mind and switch to the other available space, much to Harry's chagrin once he realizes he's just been tricked. However, Harry hits Freezy right back with this, winning him the game and allowing him to keep his remaining player (TOTS Sanchez).]]
51	* LazyBum: Has been accused by the Sidemen and the non-Sidemen [=YouTubers=] that he shares a flat with (Calfreezy and Callux) for being this. Freezy sums it up pretty well:
52	-->[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech "You're lazy, you don't wake up, you don't clean up after yourself, you don't help around the flat, you literally do nothing at all! You are useless! It was the worst mistake of my life moving in with you!"]]
53	* LeParkour: Harry, Calfreezy, and Joe Weller's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-i-nM-8aoY first challenge]] to prove if they have what it takes to be the next Film/AntMan1.
54	* LimitedWardrobe: Subverted; while he does wear his jumper frequently, he does occasionally choose not to wear it.
55	* LiteralMinded[=/=]VisualPun: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl_FAKdEVjg "FIFA 15 LEAKED FOOTAGE"]], in which [[spoiler:we see Harry working under the sink, only to pull out a copy of ''FIFA 15'' and say that the game had ''literally'' leaked.]]
56	** Does it once more in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QErPU3mCyy0 FIFA 15 LEAKED!!]], where [[spoiler:he gets a package from EA containing the game, and opens the game box to find leeks inside.]]
57	* MadLibsCatchPhrase: "Wroeto___". Aside from his [=YouTube=] username, he's applied it to his Xbox gamertag and Rockstar Games Social Club username (wroetobeg), and one of his PSN usernames ([=wroetobog17=]), as well as his Snapchat handle (wroetosnap).
58	* MesACrowd: [[https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/694220998556700672/xsZy6NiW.jpg As seen here]] in his current Twitter profile picture, reportedly made by a fan.
59	* MsFanservice: ''His sister''. She is so hot that the other members of the Sidemen keep lusting over her.
60	* OhCrap:
61	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm3rkAXxsE4 In this Mail Monday video]], he opens a particularly shady-looking package to find a dirty container inside. Then he realizes [[{{Squick}} why it's dirty]].
62	-->'''[[spoiler:"OHHH, IT'S SHIT! HE SENT ME SHIT!"]]'''
63	** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4X0-_roNgOQ a promotional video in junction with Marvel]] to promote ''Film/AntMan1'', Harry, Calfreezy, and Joe Weller are taken blindfolded to an area. Once they open their eyes, they see someone bungee jumping. Their reactions say it all. (Joe even has a ThisCannotBe moment.)
64	* OncePerEpisode: All videos used to open with a quick ad for the ''FIFA'' coin site MMOGA, and then it was changed to [=FrenzyFIFA=].
65	* OneSteveLimit: {{Averted\|Trope}} with his two friends and (now former) flatmates, who are both named Callum (Calfreezy and Callux).
66	* OverlyLongGag: From "WORST WAGER EVER!"; Harry trying to force his chair out of his window, and then attempting to pull it back in when it doesn't fit. This is completely unedited, mind you.
67	* RedOni: To Calfreezy's blue oni (or rather, the Dinho to Cal's Frooby). It's especially notable in any videos they do together, such as the [=Q&A=] or the accent challenge.
68	* RunningGag:
69	** Rarely does a video go by where he loses a ''FIFA'' wager (or at the very least concedes a goal) and '''doesn't''' break his chair and/or his controller. [[CharacterDevelopment He eventually stopped doing so as he's gotten older.]]
70	** Apparently Harry is 12.
71	** "Cue the ''Film/{{Titanic\|1997}}'' music." Usually used for when he has to discard a beloved player.
72	** Referring Malian and Bordeaux football player Cheick Diabaté as Diabetes whenever he packed him.
73	* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Oh yeah. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4X0-_roNgOQ Case in point.]]
74	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8zK7Rxa20Y this]] video, Harry promptly leaves the room after [[spoiler:his opponent takes out Harry's Man of the Match Messi.]]
75	* SixthRanger: Harry is this to the Sidemen. He's the group's only non-founding member as he joined in 2014,[[note]]although Vik is also not one of the original members of the group according to Simon[[/note]] lived with two non-Sidemen [=YouTubers=] (WebVideo/{{Calfreezy}} and Callux), and ironically is the least involved in the group's videos. Even [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/theultimatesidemen/images/f/f9/Sidemen_GTA.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150509171317 the group shot of the Sidemen's characters]] on ''GTA Online'' has Harry's character awkwardly added into the background.
76	* SpitTake: A very out-of-the-blue one at the start of "I GOT F**KING HACKED".
77	* TakeThat: He makes a little skit of how he thinks [[Creator/ElectronicArts EA]] hires people for live chats. Said skit was also in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Xsu8o3P2aU EA BANNED ME!]], natch.
78	-->''(Harry walks through a door with the EA Sports logo on it and sits down with another Harry dressed up as an EA executive.)''
79	-->'''EA Executive''': Okay, so I hear that you're applying for a job on our live chat.
80	-->''(Harry says nothing.)''
81	-->'''EA Executive''': Oooookay, then. Anyway, here at EA, [[BlatantLies customer care is our main priority]]. (cut to Harry staring blankly) So on the live chat, we're looking to employ someone who's intentive, supportive, and really understands what the customer wants. Did you get that?
82	-->''(Harry still isn't speaking.)''
83	-->'''EA Executive''': Do you even understand English?
84	-->''(Harry shakes his head.)''
85	-->'''EA Executive''': Great stuff. You're hired!
86	* TemptingFate:
87	** Many have speculated that Harry displaying his club name and the number of coins and ''FIFA'' points he has was what led to him getting hacked. He did cover it up in the future with a FUT Founder that displayed some of his social network handles.
88	** A [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools benevolent]] example; before opening a Team of the Season pack, he practically prayed to EA to get someone good after a string of bad packs. He then got Ronaldo.
89	* ThoseTwoGuys: With Calfreezy; the two are known as Frooby (Cal) and Dinho (Harry).
90	* TwoFirstNames: ''Four'' to be exact.
91	* WordPureeTitle: In the past, there's no known origins for Harry's username being Wroetoshaw, aside from one of his alternate surnames apparently being Shaw. The Sidemen Book reveals that his name is a portmanteau of two footballer names, Nicky '''Wroe''' and '''To'''m Brad'''shaw'''.
