Remy Gaillard is a world-class athlete who never became an athlete. His favorite sports were soccer and ball tricks. He is one of the best at trick shots with a soccer ball, maybe even better than many professional athletes.
But Remy also had a hobby that brought millions of people around the world together over the years: He was one of the most resourceful and imaginative pranksters the internet has ever seen. On his youtube channel he has about 7.4 million subscribers, a huge number for a comedy channel. At the same time, he is also an animal rights activist and this is the reason why he does many pranks in uniforms and costumes.
Of course, at the opening ceremony his compatriots raised the Olympic flag upside down. It is not clear if this is a prank, but it was definitely a mistake.
One of the highlights of his long career was in 2002 in the Lorient-Bastia final where he disguised himself as a Lorient player, took part in the celebrations and was greeted by the French president Jacques Chirac, who congratulated him on the very good game he played! After the celebrations and the photoshoots, he took the microphone and left a message to the team coach that he was available! Don’t believe it?
Remy at his own Olympics
In between some outrageously crazy pranks, Gaillard had also done his own Decathlon competitions and other compilations. With a small difference: his Olympic Games were filmed in the city, where with an imaginative and always athletic style, he made one view record after another!
In these matches that seem to be slipping away from their purpose, if they haven’t already, the following video may be of value to us.
Above all, Remy is the classic person who would be good at whatever sport he wanted to do and that’s why his pranks came out flawless. Even in fencing he was able to support his prank, but he had to find an opponent. The one below.
