Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:44Disguised as a cleaner, ANATOLY approaches gym members and offers unsolicited lifting assistance.
- 1:27A rowing-machine warm-up escalates from extra plates to gym members standing on the weight horn.
- 3:04The customized weighted mop gets handed to gym members.
- 10:34A viewer recognizes ANATOLY and requests a photo, prompting his Discovery Channel explanation.
- 13:40ANATOLY performs pull-ups while wearing a backpack vacuum cleaner.
The disguise can survive a heavy deadlift, but a request for a photo is another matter. Partway through ANATOLY's new gym visit, a viewer recognizes him from YouTube. His improvised defense: insist he works for the Discovery Channel.
That interruption has become a talking point beneath "JANITOR vs THE BIGGEST GUYS IN THE GYM. They Didn't Expect THAT MOVE". Viewers are asking why someone who recognizes the character would interrupt the prank before it finishes. Elsewhere, the comments replay his deliberately confused answer to a question about curls: "Not girl, I'm Anatoly."
The week's only upload gives the familiar cleaner routine several variations. Gym members become extra resistance on a rowing machine, the weighted mop changes hands, and a backpack vacuum accompanies pull-ups. This is a gym-prank compilation, with ANATOLY playing the unassuming janitor, and it includes a sponsored drinks segment.
It has reached roughly three million views and is the channel's busiest video right now. The previous episode, in which another lifter manages to lift ANATOLY himself, remains active too, alongside September's mop-assisted challenge.
Across the channel, daily viewing is close to its usual level, while subscribers increased over the week, leaving ANATOLY just short of ten million. Among nearby prank channels, Just For Laughs Gags also has fairly typical daily viewing; Family Friendly's daily pace is softer. ANATOLY's own week belongs to a recognizable character facing the awkward consequence of becoming recognizable himself.
