Streamer from Moscow. In May 2025, a case was brought against him for desecration of the symbol of military glory because he spat several times on the St George's ribbon during a live broadcast on his YouTube channel. On 20 May, the Cheremushkinsky court of Moscow rejected the investigator's motion to remand Skutin in custody. On 2 October, the same court sent the streamer to pre-trial detention due to violations of a more lenient preventive measure. On 1 April 2026, Skutin was sentenced to two and a half years in a strict regime colony.
