Who was Youtuber KingCobraJFS?

Joshua Fay Saunders, best known as KingCobraJFS or the self-styled “Gothic King Cobra,” was a Wyoming-based YouTuber, musician, and livestreamer whose eccentric personality carved out a niche corner of internet culture.

Born and raised in Casper, Saunders spent much of his life there, living independently while streaming daily to his loyal following.

His channel, created in 2010, grew over the years into a mix of gothic aesthetics, offbeat humor, food experiments, guitar performances, and late-night rants. 

His content ranged from personal vlogs and casual livestreams to guitar playing and discussions of pop culture.

While his style and personality drew both criticism and support, he remained a consistent figure in his corner of online communities.

Saunders often spoke openly about his personal struggles, including living with Asperger’s syndrome, financial instability, and lifelong battles with alcohol.

Beyond YouTube, he pursued small creative ventures such as making hand-carved wooden wands, which became sought-after items among fans.
