“If I Tried Doing That Now…” – YouTube Superstar KSI Explained Why He Can’t Do Real-Life Prank Video Anymore

JJ “KSI” Olatunji is among the elite content creators on YouTube. He has been making content on the Google-owned platform since 2008. So, he has changed his content many times. KSI started his YouTube career with gaming content but over time, he tried a variety of genres like vlogging, pranks, reaction, and even music.

But there was a time when the English YouTuber used to hit the streets of London in search of content. He used to prank people on the street to ask weird questions. This real-life content got him a lot of fame. Many people still love this video and hope Olatunji can again get on the London streets to make these videos.

The 29-year-old recently revealed he wouldn’t be able to give fans this kind of video now. All the YouTuber can now do is react to these videos and reminisce about them.

KSI can no longer explore streets for content

JJ Olatunji recently reacted to his old videos, which showcased all the content ventures he’s gone through over his decade-long YouTube career. It was impossible to imagine those old videos won’t include a real-life prank video.

He once dressed up in a monkey costume and walked on the streets of London with Callux. The latter would ask random people on street some general knowledge questions and one of which would be identifying the animal that KSI was dressed up as. If they answer monkey, Olatunji would remove the mask and angrily ask what they called him.

A few years back, the English content creator used to do a lot of these types of videos. But while seeing it, KSI revealed it’s hard for him to do these videos due to his huge popularity. He explained, “Look how easy it was for me to film outdoors. If I tried doing that now, instantly crowded. A crowd of people would be like ‘Oh my God! Oh my God!”

KSI shared that now when he steps outdoors, people surround him and ask for PRIME Hydration, as it’s hard to come across one because of the huge sales. But aside from PRIME, they will also ask him about whom he would fight next. So, it’s no longer possible for him to do such prank videos.
