Rake Yohn - Life and Career

Life and Career

Yohn was born in West Chester, Pennsylvania. He attended Penn State University, graduating in 1997 with a BS in Chemistry, and is now a chemist specializing in synthetic materials. He is the older brother of Art Webb, an occasional CKY Crew member. He is known for his long hair, love for metal, and strong dislike of mustard.

Rake Yohn's face is on the cover of CKY2K as well as the cover of the 1999 re-issue of CKY's Volume 2 album. The image was also used on a limited edition Tech Deck released exclusively for the game Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. On the CKY DVD, Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild: The Video Album, Yohn complained that "his face was on DVDs, shirts and Tech Decks, and he hasn't seen a dime for any of them."

In 2009 Rake Yohn, Brandon Dicamillo and brother Art Webb provided voice-overs for the Xbox Live Arcade Game Trials HD.

The history of the CKY crew according to Rake:

For instance, the guy that I probably knew the best was Brandon DiCamillo because his sister was my age, and he was friends with my younger brother, Art. So, eventually, from Brandon and Art hanging out, I started hanging out with Brandon. One day, I think it was a Saturday morning, he was like, "You feel like coming out and filming?" And up at Penn State, I had helped a couple people with some of their college movie stuff, so it was like, "What the hell? 'Something to watch later on." That ended up being the "Army" skit from "Landspeed." You know, it ended up pretty crazy. Then, another day, he wanted to film the "Legend of Football" bit, you know?

In 2012 Rake featured as a voice over in the video game 'Trials: Evolution'

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or career:

    My dream of politics all my life has been that it is the common business, that it is something we owe to each other to understand and ... discuss with absolute frankness.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    “Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
