OPI, also known as R2 Pulkson, has gained notoriety as an IRL streamer known for his outrageous behavior. This Finnish streamer’s antics have captured the internet’s attention, particularly after he crashed his car into a store while live. Let’s explore OPI’s history, his controversial actions, and the recurring cycle of bans that define his online presence, a video by atozy covers the topic as well.
Who is R2 Pulkson/OPI? Meet the Ultimate Internet Troll
OPI embraces his reputation as a “problem for humanity.” He has become known for pushing boundaries and engaging in shocking behavior. Some compare him to Johnny Somali and other similar IRL streamers. The apparent lack of serious consequences in Finland may contribute to his actions.
Basic Info
Unfortunately, key details such as OPI’s exact age, real name, age/place of birth, marital status, children, and spouses are not readily available. However, we can piece together other information based on his online activity.
Early Days: From IT Student to Imageboard Infamy
Imageboard Beginnings (2017)
OPI’s online journey began on Finnish image boards in 2017. His early content featured his daily life as an awkward, heavy-drinking young man. At the time, he was studying to become an IT technician. Over time, his videos became increasingly bizarre and attention-grabbing.
Discovery and Dropout
OPI’s classmates discovered his threads on the anonymous image boards. After being recognized, he dropped out of school. His content took a turn toward more extreme and chaotic behavior. It’s like watching a “nuclear meltdown in slow motion,” as mentioned in the atozy video.
The Rise of OPI: Live Streaming and the “Ban Cycle”
PayPal Donations and the Webcam
OPI received a webcam as a donation from an early follower. This allowed him to begin his live streaming career.
Early Streaming (YouTube)
OPI initially streamed on YouTube, having drunken conversations with his chat and playing Runescape and Euro Truck Simulator. Gradually, his content shifted to more chaotic and extreme actions. YouTube banned him after just 3 months of live streaming.
The OPI Ban Cycle
After his first ban, OPI created a new channel and shared the URL on an imageboard. This began what his viewers call the “OPI ban cycle”:
- Creating a new account
- Streaming deranged content
- Getting banned
- Repeating the cycle
This cycle is similar to what Johnny Somali experiences. It is difficult to keep track of OPI’s online presence because his accounts change so frequently. Currently, he has been streaming on Kick and has made appearances on Tiger Streams, though he has been banned again.
OPI’s Eras: A Chaotic Timeline
OPI’s career can be divided into three phases based on where he lived:
Phase 1: Kajaani Apartment (2017-2018)
During this phase, OPI lived in an apartment in Kajaani (Kayani). While relatively tame compared to what was to come, this period had notable incidents:
- Taking pills on stream, requiring first responders.
- Drinking cleaning solution while playing Runescape.
He was eventually evicted from his apartment and live streamed the entire event.
Phase 2: Falimo (until 2023)
OPI moved to Falimo, which became the craziest period of his life. His streams featured more guests, and his apartment became a chaotic “frat house.” Law enforcement and first responders frequently visited his apartment.
One notable incident was the arson incident:
- Burning furniture in his backyard.
- The fire spreading to the fence and apartment complex.
- Urinating on the firefighters.
- His arrest and subsequent release.
Phase 3: Return to Kajaani (Present)
OPI returned to his hometown of Kajaani. Since then, many events have occurred, including the car crash incident where he drunkenly drove his mother’s car and crashed into an empty store. It is unclear if he faced any real punishment for this.
A Recent Summary of OPI’s Antics
Here are some of the things OPI has done in the past few months:
- Trying to get Taiga banned.
- Rolling at the casino while high.
- Throwing prosecutor’s eviction letters down the toilet.
- Playing with a homemade flamethrower.
- Live streaming himself going to a Finnish AA meeting.
The Consequences (or Lack Thereof)
OPI faces constant bans and relies on donations. It’s questionable whether Finnish laws will ever stop him, given the relaxed nature of the Nordics. It’s unclear what his approximate earnings are, approximate wealth, or his latest whereabouts.
