History WebVideo / Zerkaa

* ReclusiveArtist: At first, what with wearing a mask and not talking in the Sidemen's earliest videos. He's since gotten out of this but remains adamant on the fake surname.

* {{Catchphrase}}:

* DefiantToTheEnd: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHmgkRqabX8 "THE LUCK IS INSANE"]] (''Monopoly Plus''), Josh ends up being the last man standing against [[Creator/{{KSI}} JJ]], who has an insane lead and has become fully DrunkWithPower, after everyone else ([[WebVideo/{{TBJZL}} Tobi]], [[WebVideo/{{Behzinga}} Ethan]], WebVideo/{{Vik|star123}}) files for bankruptcy. While JJ tries to get Josh to quit and accept his ForegoneVictory, Josh continues to play [[ForegoneConclusion even though he practically knows there's no beating JJ]].

** [[SubvertedTrope Though not all the time.]] He's come dead last in several ''GTA V'' races, and has won very few rounds of ''Uno''.

* BerserkButton: See DoNotCallMePaul below.

Joshua Charlie Joseph Bradley (born 4 September 1992), also known as by his online identity Zerkaa and his {{stage name|s}} Josh Zerker, is an English internet personality.

* DoNotCallMePaul: He is quite adamant on stating that his stage surname "Zerker" is his "real" surname, even though his name is documented on [[https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/officers/-F0qSAN2PzgyiZRo29PVEoMo_6s/appointments Companies House showing him as an officer for Sidemen Clothing Limited and ZRK Ltd.]] As he said in a strange response to Vik in a ''GTA Online'' [[https://youtu.be/Op4IH3nj-FY?t=185 race]]:
-->'''Josh:''' Sweat out like a madman, come on.[[labelnote:context]]Josh is in last place and is trying to focus and boost his self-confidence to get ahead.[[/labelnote]]\\

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XF2SzL_MQ2A A February 2017 game]] of ''Cards Against Humanity'' has "Josh Bradley" appear on a white card and read by Simon, yet Josh didn't react at all to his real surname appearing on a ''CAH'' card. It's most likely that he's being GenreSavvy by deliberately not drawing attention to it, since he remains adamant on the fake surname to this day.

* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Dr Pepper. He usually has a small drink of the soda at points in his videos. He's received [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMV4Qrg4g1A a Dr Pepper cake for his birthday]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlV-qO1jaAA attempted to make a pizza with Dr Pepper]] for a video, and Dr Pepper Snapple Group[[note]]today known as Keurig Dr Pepper[[/note]] even sent him [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az5DvY66ClQ an ice sculpture in the shape of a Dr Pepper can!]] However, ever since the group started taking their health more seriously after KSI and Creator/LoganPaul announced their fight, he's cut back on the soft drink.

Bradley is a founding member of the Website/YouTube group the WebVideo/{{Sidemen}}, as well as their brand manager. First known in his early [=YouTube=] days (extending to the first year of the group) for hiding his face behind a mask until he warmed up to his eventual popularity, today he's known for maintaining a consistent look of combed black hair and a moderately thick beard, being the oldest and often {{only sane|man}} member of the group (although co-member [[WebVideo/{{Miniminter}} Simon Minter]] is just three days younger than Bradley), and his occasional bizarre remarks and outbursts he makes in frustration.

* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: His ''GTA'' vehicle colour is orange. In minigolf games, his ball colour is green.

* ReclusiveArtist: At first, what with wearing a mask and not talking in the Sidemen's earliest videos. He's since gotten out of this, but remains adamant on the fake surname.

* StageName: He refers to himself as "Josh Zerker". Some fans actually believe this to be his real name and have even edited his page on The Ultimate Sidemen Wiki to "correct" his surname to "Zerker", and one fan tried but failed to change his surname on the Sidemen's own Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} article.

* BadassBeard: It's a modest one, but still fits here.

That means either Josh has either stopped caring about the fact that his last name's pretty much an OpenSecret among the fanbase now or that he's being GenreSavvy by deliberately not drawing attention to it.

* ThatsWhatSheSaid: Josh loves saying this when someone makes a perceived innuendo.

** With Tobi, forming "Team 12 Years" (formerly 10, then 11).

** {{Averted|Trope}} if recent performances are to be seen. He's suddenly becoming so terrible and screws up so often, even JJ now can beat him regularly if JJ didn't screwed up just as often.

* TheSouthpaw: As shown by the ''Sidemen Pictionary Challenge'', he is the only member of the Sidemen who is left-handed.
