Now CBBC Newsround presenter Ricky Boleto has paid a visit to the famous boys' family home to see how they've grown up and hear their feelings about their unexpected online fame.

Harry says the video makes them laugh and that they're not embarrassed, but Charlie does add, "I think it's a bit odd that loads of people watched it."
