Personal life

Hasbulla grew up in Makhachkala, Republic of Dagestan, Russia, and is the son of a plumber.[3][4] He is Muslim.[5] He said in an interview on Full Send podcast that he disliked the four years he spent in an Islamic school. His informal interpreter, Surkhay Sungurov, said that Hasbulla convinced a friend to drive the 200 kilometers to help him escape the school. Once he left, he began creating videos for the internet.[6]

He has a form of dwarfism caused by a growth hormone deficiency and stands at 101 cm (3 ft 4 in) tall, weighing 18 kg (40 lbs).[7][8] His sister also has the same condition. However, he stated that doctors have never given him a definitive diagnosis.[6] The New York Times wrote that he is passionate about "shooting guns, driving fast cars, practicing fighting moves, and playing pranks."[6]

He owns a Scottish Fold named Barsik ('little badger'). Hasbulla owns a white Lada Riva which he has named "Semerka".

Career

One of Hasbulla's first viral videos show him driving a motorized scooter and lecturing a young person on a bicycle about pandemic restrictions, telling him to go home. In another video, Hasbulla was eating strawberries.[6]

During 2021 and 2022, he had a satirical publicized dispute with Abdu Rozik[9] and Uzbek Erali.[10]

In September 2022, Hasbulla signed a five-year promotion contract with the UFC.[11][12][13][14] His fans include Jair Bolsonaro, Donald Trump Jr., Shaquille O'Neal and Drake.[6]
