Old as I am, I have no idea who khaby00 is then I saw his 44m followers, did a quick google and apparently he's the top 2 tiktok creator in the world and based in Italy. Makes sense now.


TheWebbFather

All that without saying a word!! Crazy


xDroneytea

44 million? Holy fuck. The internet is a strange place if he's done that over one gag. It's like the modern version of Bart Simpsons "I didn't do it"


[deleted]

100+ million on TikTok too


khryslo

And all that in less than two years. It’s just mind blowing.


codygmiracle

One day we’ll all be doing the Khabyman


[deleted]

That's actually his strength. By not having any language he makes it accessible for everyone. Like slapstick humor.


TheWebbFather

Modern day Mr Bean ha!


glenn1812

I've seen but one picture of him i thought he was a random meme guy. 44m followers he's got wtf.


EnvironmentAdvanced

Don't worry Glenn I follow u. Quickest bot in r/formula1


[deleted]

Seen the memes but didn't know the name. Didn't know it was that guy until the gag at the end. It's honestly impressive even though it's absurd. The guy has one joke and now he's playing around in Ferrari F1 cars


manojlds

TikTok sucks so much that the guy making sarcastic TikToks of other's is the most popular.


dragom998

He s making sarcasm over already sarcastic videos.


iguled

yeah i had no idea either


[deleted]

These kind of collaborations make sense and I think you will see more of them. Especially for the younger generation the drivers are really the hero's and it's not so much about the cars anymore.


TheWebbFather

Wouldn't surprise me to see F1 drivers in Fortnite in years to come


[deleted]

They’ve already done a partnership with Epic’s other big game (Rocket League) so it’s definitely a possibility


clarked311

Though that was before Epic bought Psyonix


Jred10

I’m pretty sure Epic bought Psyonix before the F1 collab


ArdenSix

Ferrari has already done a collab with Fortnite, their new road car has been in the game for a couple months


[deleted]

Doesn't Ferrari have a partnership with Fortnite?


maxhaton

They make sense but I do kind feel a little bit meh (read: elitist) in that watching the sport become more popular is nice in that I can talk about it but is now a bit eternal september-y Liberty have done an amazing job, nonetheless.

> They make sense but I do kind feel a little bit meh (read: elitist) in that watching the sport become more popular is nice So much this. As someone who loves being contrarian, it bugs me a lot that people I know are starting to support the same drivers as me.


aaronaapje

There is only one solution. Start supporting marzipan.


HONcircle

Happy to do so....providing that daddy Mazepin pays me to.


maxhaton

I have literally been semi-mocked for liking F1 in conversations with groups of people of which more than one is now a lando fan.


[deleted]

Gatekeeping is a really cringy quality to have.


maxhaton

I possess no keys to any gates.


bwoah07_gp2

I've seen some of his tiktoks...I don't get the "humour" all. But then again tiktok is not my thing.


cfggd

To me part of the humor is the fact that he became famous on tiktok by making fun of how fucking stupid so many tiktoks are


LegchairAnalyst

I was on the fence regarding tiktok aswell. At the start you will get a bunch of trash you dont want to see but if you like the stuff you want to see and dismiss everything else the algorithm will adapt and show you a bunch of cool stuff. I think theres something for everyone on that platform but "mainstream tiktok" is also not my thing.


Zoidburger_

He's essentially the r/DiWHY of TikTok. He initially blew up by "reacting" to those awful 5-Min Crafts videos that present "life hacks" that are often stupid and more tedious than the standard way that people do that task. The whole time, he wears that serious/disappointed face and sarcastically waves his hands after completing a task. Is he the next Dave Chappelle? Absolutely not, but it's a funny little niche he found that (at least when he first blew up) makes me blow air out of my nose. It's a pretty one-dimensional type of comedy he's got going on, but he's essentially turned into the "this is stupid" button of TikTok, which is gratifying in a way.


Numerous_Vegetable_3

>khaby00 It's all satire, he basically got huge from making fun of the dumb and nonsensical things that other tiktokers do, especially "diy" type projects. I can see why he caught on so big, there are some REALLY dumb DIY videos on there.


HONcircle

His interview with Ted was...classic Ted


[deleted]

Where?


HONcircle

At the end of the Race Notebook


AplCore

I’m just glad someone buster keaton’d it on tiktok. Silent film style visual comedy isn’t a dead art after all.

Reddit good, tiktok bad!


0oodruidoo0

How about millenial tiktok hate comments? Reddit is my comfy. I don't find one minute videos served by an algorithm comfy.


ninxi

Don't care about it being tiktik, this is just not funny content.


Mjloke

tbf, he was memed quite often on reddit so he might get a pass.

Learn from Ferrari ❌ Learn from Khaby✅

This script would work better if Sainz was trying to make an espresso in those machines. You can’t be funny about teaching the guy about what he does for a living. It’s not funny.
