It was Don Panton's wife Malinda who had first introduced him to YouTube in early 2017 and convinced him to create a channel with her. After getting a camera as a gift, they jointly created the channel 'Pantons Squad' on January 5, 2017 to post vlogs, prank and challenge videos featuring the whole family including their two kids.
