Over 8.3 million followers: Bernese @Thispronto is the biggest Swiss TikToker
His trademark is his cutting board - an iPad - on which he originally just happened to be chopping for a challenge. With his cooking videos, 21-year-old Oluyomi Scherrer from Berne now delights over 8 million users on the TikTok channel @Thispronto. This makes the trained chef and passionate fisherman currently the most successful TikToker in Switzerland.
Oluyomi shares his passion under the channel @T online for only a year with a steadily growing audience. However, success came so quickly that in February Olu even surpassed the previous Swiss No. 1 @noeminikita (7.3 million). His most popular video, for example, reached over 40 million clicks - including rapper Snoop Dogg, who recently shared a video of the Berner reposted on his channel.
Oluyomi explains his motivation this way, "My goal is to inspire people to make themselves happy through the art of cooking."
Inspired by his trip to Europe, which lasted several months, Olu decided to open his own food truck on the market square in Bern, thus stirring up Swiss street food culture. To my great surprise, the videos were well received right from the start and went viral so quickly that I decided to continue sharing my cooking skills with my community.
