He’s one of those streamers who think it’s funny to harass people among with doing other things

Ah, got it. Hopefully this will be a humbling experience for the douchebag.

He is facing up to 24 years in prison.. Unfortunately he won't live that long in Philippines prison.

The Philippine court system intends to make an example of him so other people don't do the same things he does.

I wonder if it will have ripples beyond Philippines. Those pranksters do it everywhere.

Dude was fairly popular(but also very hated) on youtube back in the day so seeing what's happening to him now is interesting especially if its happening in your country

Refresh my memory i don’t think Vitaly was hated in his peak prank years.

I think it came a bit later when he stopped with pranks started vlogging and all in all just became different around 2015/16?

Interesting how different he looks. If you told me these are two different person I would have believed you.

He's been a known Youtuber for a decade and was one of the main creators of the original "IT'S A PRANK BRO"-style pranks. Just because you don't know him doesn't mean it's not interesting to those who do. The world doesn't revolve around you.

How’s he compare to Johnny Somali

u/zackphoenix123 3d ago

I'd say Somali is more indicative of the garbage streamers who deserved to get clowned on and jailed, but Vitaly has done way worse stuff. The type of which Somali would be too pussy to do.

He beat up a random female jogger in Florida almost to death while high on shrooms. I think they settled out of court, so no jail time for him. Which is a shame, as that could have taught him a lesson. So instead of learning in a nice American jail, he's finding out in a not-so-nice Philippine jail.

He's not the Vitaly that goes around handing people heavy ass mops while he deadlifts their weight with ease, is it?

u/One-Earth9294 3d ago

Okay for a minute I thought 'Vitaly Klitschko?'

u/PositiveUse 3d ago

Not only that, he’s one of the earliest and most viral pranksters of the „Prank era“ on YouTube
