- R.I.P. APETOR
Have you watched any video of #Apetor, a popular youtube personality? That´s the name of his youtube channel. He is one of my favorites, not just because his videos are entertaing to watch but because he lived in a city where we used to live, Sandefjord.
He was famous for his stunts in the ice and from time to time got a little bloody due to minor accidents.
Apparently he was supposed to make a youtube video last Friday, 26 November 2021, but instead had an accident in the ice in the outskirts of Kongsberg, Norway at Jakobs dam. Rescue divers came and found him and was taken to Oslo University Hospital (Oslo Universitetssykehus - Ullevål sykehus) Sad to say that he didn´t make it and passed away last Saturday, November 27, 2021.
Note: The videos here are clips from his channel when he was still alive and not a video of the accident that happened last Friday.
His youtube channel has more than one million subscribers. As of today has 1.2 million already. His youtube stats show that his channel has a total of almost 390 million views. ( 389,729,631 views)
He is a Norwegian residing in Sandefjord, Norway. It is a charming city in Vestfold of Telemark, an hour and a half drive away from Norway´s capital Oslo.
Apetor´s last video on youtube was published several days ago, Nov 22, 2021 which already gained a lot of views, soon to reach a million. The title of which is “I am not dead, I am 57 today”. Several days after this video, he died. That makes me wonder, why that´s the title of his last video. Was it his sense of humor that prompted him to entitle his birthday videos this way? Or was it probably his positive mindset - that every passing year we are alive is something to be grateful for?
Apetor´s most popular video, “The First Snow 4”, has over 94 million views, published 4 years ago on Nov 17, 2017, • The First Snow 4
“The First Snow 5”, a video published in Nov. 2018 has over 25 million views. • The First Snow 5
And the list goes on and on, with millions of views. He has 283 videos for you to binge watch.
Apetor´s oldest video was published in Oct. 2006, "In my boat” and the most recent video was published in Nov. 2021.
He made videos for entertainment like icebathing, skating on thin ice or frozen lakes with stunts that proved to be dangerous.
On November 8, year 2018, he published a video on youtube with a title “I Got Cancer”. He made notes in the video that he was diagnosed with rectal cancer in March 2018 and underwent surgery same year in June. And he wrote further, “I will shit in a bag on my stomach for the rest of my life”. He also mentioned that he did not get cancer because of his lifestyle but because of a disease in the digestive system, ulcerative colitis.
He died last Saturday Nov 27, year 2021, not because of cancer. It´s his passion for outdoor activities in the ice that eventually led to his demise.
May you rest in peace, Tor Eckhoff.

It’s the first time I feel so sorry for the demise of someone I’ve never known personally, my only interaction with apetor was a few replies to my comments throughout the years, and yet I can’t believe I will never receive a notification of one of his videos again…
Appreciate your tribute.
It’s true, we will never have a notification again. 🙏
@@TheKruns His video remain forever his greatness'' Viva Apetor ''
same here, I'm very sad. I've seen like 10 videos of him over a period of 3 years. He cheers me up by his genuine happiness and peace of doing simple things that others would deem "weird". He just enjoys what he does, and it's a very beautiful thing more people should do. May he rest in peace.

Dude I used to chat with this guy on Instagram and watching his videos in 2021 ,I was so saddened by the news of his death ,RIP you Legend and Skäll
It’s really sad.
Lubiłem oglądać jego nagrania. Niesamowicie pozytywny człowiek. Aż trudno uwierzyć, że już go nie ma na tym świecie. Niech odpoczywa w pokoju.

Kurwa totalnie. Ogladałem go za nastolatka i już wtedy nas inspirował. Niejedna popijawa z ziomkiem skończyła się rozjebaną od lodu głową... Spoczywaj w pokoju Apetorze :(
@@szymonpokorski1850 Just curious, Wikipedia page mentioned that his is famous in Poland, but why? Because he drank a lot of Polish vodka?
