How Old is Nidal Wonder? What Happened to This Gymnastics Genius and YouTube Star After His Accident?

Ah, Nidal Wonder, the boy who can take your breath away, not only with his good looks but with his cool back-flips as well. When I first heard about him, I was curious to check his content, but I didn’t expect him to be so young.

I was suddenly full of questions: How old is Nidal Wonder? How did he build a sizable audience at such a young age? What type of content made him famous?

In this post, I’ll answer all these questions and more, so stick around!

Nidal Wonder’s Age

Born on December 10th, 2010, in Clovis, California, Nidal Ajin, aka “Nidal Wonder,” is 14 as of writing this post. It’s impressive how such a young creator could amass such a large following, isn’t it?

Oh, you’re not familiar with his work? Then, you’re in for a delight!

Nidal Wonder’s Career

You’re probably wondering why a 14-year-old is enjoying a celebrated career. Well, Nidal used to make the type of content that gets people’s hearts pumping: Gymnastics.

Early Beginning

You know these kids who show incredible talent at something from an early age? That was Nidal. As early as five years old, he developed a keen interest in gymnastics and started teaching himself how to flip.

It also helped that his brother, Juju, shared the same passion. So, the Ajib brothers started training together. It didn’t take long for Nidal to improve.

That’s when he had an idea that would later turn his world around: Why not share his talent with the world?

Content Creation

Nidal was a young kid, running around, doing all kinds of flips and dangerous stunts. Obviously, starting a YouTube channel was the smart move to make here.

Nidal Wonders YouTube Channel

I know what you’re thinking: “YouTube is full of people doing parkour and dangerous stunts. What makes Nidal Wonders special?” First, Nidal isn’t even 14, and he’s already doing flips most grown-ups can’t do. That’s a unique wow factor right there.

Second, he puts a lot of effort into the production. It’s not just a random guy with a camera filming him doing backflips. The shooting, editing, and coloring are all top-tier, and you know YouTube loves that.

Thirdly, Nidal’s videos aren’t just about gymnastics. He always comes up with interesting ideas, like doing crazy challenges, imitating dangerous superhero moves, and more.

Obviously, there’s so much gymnastics content you can make before it gets old. That’s why Nidal deviated from flips and started making more mainstream videos.

You know what I’m talking about, the “I Let this Person Control My Day” and “I Bought the Weirdest Products.” He even did a few music videos. Yes, he has a solid voice.

If you think diverting to mainstream content may have hurt the channel’s views, think again. Nidal Wonder has 3.38 million subscribers as of writing this post, and each video gets thousands, if not millions of views. So, he’s not doing half-bad as a YouTuber.

Wonder Bros

Wonder Bros is a YouTube channel that Nidal shares with his brother, making different types of videos. From making cheap vs luxurious comparisons to testing YouTuber products, this channel is a way for Nidal and his brother to share crazy experiences together.

Nidal Wonder’s Love Life

That may sound strange, but Nidal’s love life has been a controversial topic for a long time. He did a good job keeping this information hidden from the public.

Salish Matter

If I had to make a list of all the people online fandoms are shipping today, Salish and Nidal would take a high spot. You see, the young flipper has been making videos with his female best friend, Salish Matter, Jordan Matter’s daughter, for the majority of his career.

They have incredible chemistry, and they don’t hesitate to be affectionate toward each other on camera. Naturally, everyone thought they were either secretly in love, already a couple, or going to date eventually. That didn’t happen, though, at least according to Nidal.

Will it ever happen? The fans are still hopeful.

Addi is another friend of Nidal’s. Although the flip boy didn’t know her as long as he knew Salish, all the online gossip is pointing toward the young love birds being together.

You can probably tell that Nidal-Salish shippers didn’t like that and were vocal with their frustration. Don’t worry. Nidal’s alleged relationship didn’t affect his friendship with Salish. They’re still making videos together.

Nidal Wonder’s Accident

He’s a YouTuber who became famous for doing dangerous flips. Of course, he got injured at one point—he didn’t get hurt doing gymnastics, though.

The young YouTuber smashed into a car while riding his scooter, breaking his leg, bruising his ribs, fracturing his collarbone, and causing head trauma.

Nidal was out of it for a few days and had to go into surgery, but he’s recovered spectacularly and is now back and better than ever.

Wrapping Up

Whenever one of your friends asks: “How old is Nida?” You can tell that it doesn’t matter. The flipping genius has done more in his teens than most adults have in their lives. Sure, his success came with some drama, but we all know there are no drama-free content creators out there. It’s part of the celebrity package.
