If you\u2019ve been on the internet over the past few months, you\u2019ve likely heard of \u2018Skibidi Toilet\u2019 while scrolling through social media. The nonsensical, chaotic YouTube videos have become famous for their portrayal of a war between toilets with human heads and people with various electronic devices for heads, all created in Garry\u2019s Mod, an iconic physics sandbox that has been responsible for numerous YouTube Poop-style content over the past 15 years or so. Skibidi Toilet was spawned by Georgia-based creator \u2018DaFuqBoom,\u2019 real name Andrei Gerasimov, who told us in an exclusive interview that he \u201cwas not expecting\u201d his content to blow up in the way that it did. However, Andrei\u2019s famous YouTube series is now being investigated by authorities thanks to its current popularity after one concerned citizen reported the videos to Russian authorities. Russian authorities investigating Skibidi Toilet YouTube videos According to local Russian news reports, a man living in Moscow alerted police to the Skibidi Toilet YouTube videos, citing their \u201cdetrimental effect\u201d on young viewers after he caught his child watching them. The man reportedly asked that the series\u2019 creator, Andrei, be investigated, as well. \u201cWe received an appeal from a Moscow resident about the need to block video materials on the Internet in the form of short Skibidi Toilet films, which have a detrimental effect on children,\u201d a law enforcement source said. Now, investigators are being tasked with watching the 70 current episodes of the epic battles between toilets and humanoid machines in Garry\u2019s Mod \u2014 probably not something they were expecting when they signed up for the job. While rumors emerged in September 2023 claiming that Skibidi Toilet\u2019s creator had been arrested, these claims weren\u2019t able to be verified\u2026 but the law is clearly taking an interest in his activities now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTube\u2019s Skibidi Toilet series under investigation by Russian police YouTube: DaFuq!?Boom!DaFuqBoom\u2019s viral Skibidi Toilet YouTube videos are under investigation by Russian authorities after a Moscow resident reported the series, worried about its \u201cdetrimental effect\u201d on children.
