Being a military family, they frequently moved. In the 55th episode of Smosh’s podcast, SmoshCast, Topp revealed that he was raised primarily in Arizona but also spent time in Florida, Virginia, and California as a child.
When Topp was 18 months old, he drowned in the backyard pool and was pronounced dead.
He claims that while his mother sprinted to get him, she overheard someone calling his name. On site, he was revived.
