Whindersson Nunes Batista, born on January 5, 1995, in Palmeira do Piauí, Brazil, is a multifaceted entertainer known as a YouTuber, comedian, actor, musician (under the alias Lil Whind), and amateur boxer. Raised in Bom Jesus, Piauí, he grew up in humble circumstances with his parents, Hidelbrando Sousa Batista and Valdenice Nunes. At age 15, Nunes began creating videos for YouTube, initially struggling for recognition until his 2012 parody "Alô Vó, Tô Reprovado" exploded with five million views in a week, propelling his channel to stardom. He relocated to Teresina, where fellow YouTuber Bob Nunes provided him shelter, and despite a channel hack in 2013, he rebuilt his presence.
His YouTube channel, whinderssonnunes, boasts over 42 million subscribers and more than 3 billion views, featuring raw, unpolished content like music parodies, vlogs, comedy sketches, and movie reviews—often filmed shirtless in a messy room with minimal editing. Nunes has transitioned into mainstream success, starring in films such as Os Parças 2 and A Placa de Rubi: A Chibatada Final, and releasing music that blends humor and hip-hop. In boxing, he debuted as an amateur in 2019, winning bouts against Mario Silva and others, competing in the 2023 Kingpyn High Stakes Tournament (reaching semifinals), and facing legends like Mike Tyson in exhibitions. Standing at 5 feet 9 inches with a charismatic, self-deprecating style, Nunes remains a cultural icon in Brazil, celebrated for his rags-to-riches journey and relatable humor.
