Jonas is a Revver/YouTube user who has left video comments on Bree's videos.

From the very beginning, a lot of users thought he was probably an official character because of the production value and style of editing similar to Bree's and Gemma's videos. Jonas is an orphan and lives alone in what was his parents' house. In a comment to a Date with P. Monkey, Jonas disclosed that his parents were lost at sea 6 years ago. This kind of unlikely and dramatic detail also points to Jonas being canon (although something like that is not something that couldn't happen to a character outside of the Lonelygirl15 story). He also says, after talking about his parents, that he can't believe he's telling this to a bunch of complete strangers and was probably put in just to justify the unlikelihood that someone would say something so personal on a video sharing site - and to Bree, who everyone knows is an actress. Probably the most damning evidence against Jonas' authenticity is that he doesn't acknowledge that Bree isn't real.

In Bree's Thanksgiving video she acknowledged Jonas: "Well, I feel silly. I thought about what you said, Jonas, and I realized I've been taking Daniel for granted. . . Thank you for reminding me what's important." This reference makes him almost certainly canon. This is similar to the way Gemma was brought into the story. However, his comments are still listed in the "comments section" unlike Gemma who is now listed in the official video list. On November 29, 2006, the Jonas Video "Trust Issues" was released as an official lg15 video, laying to rest any lingering doubts about his role in the Breeniverse.

Jonas' profile says he both became a member and posted his first video "one week ago." That doesn't give him much time to surf around, get familiar with Bree and Daniel, and decide to blog, but maybe he was using YouTube before he actually became a member, and only became a member after deciding to do his own videos.

Jonas mentions that his parents were lost at sea while travelling along Longitude 140.
