Despite his success, he did not make a living out of his videos, creating them primarily for his own enjoyment. The ones he recorded during the winter were his most well-known, though also being controversial in nature due to their perceived danger-drinking alcohol before swimming near-naked in below-freezing temperatures-but some also characterised them as artistic for their presentation and content. His videos, in which he remained mostly silent, were popular worldwide, especially in Poland. His YouTube career lasted from 2006 until his death in 2021, though his channel first started gaining popularity in 2011. At the time of his death, he lived in Sandefjord where he worked in a paint factory run by the chemicals company Jotun. He died in 2021 after he fell through the ice of a lake west of Kongsberg, Norway, while recording a video.
