UFC champ Dricus du Plessis might dominate in the octagon, but his latest knockout isn’t a fight – it’s a viral prank! Teaming up with Aussie influencers, he’s left the internet in stitches as they unknowingly stir up chaos with him before realising who he is. And the reactions? Absolutely priceless!

 

Global (06 February 2025) – UFC champ Dricus du Plessis is no stranger to making headlines, but this time, it’s not for his performance in the octagon – it’s for a wildly funny collaboration with some of Australia’s top online pranksters.

The South African fighter has teamed up with the Reesebros, Jackson O’Doherty, and Clayton from “Clayton’s World” for a video that is taking social media by storm. And judging by the reactions, fans are absolutely loving it!

The video, which has already racked up millions of views, plays out like a comedy skit gone wrong – at least for the Aussie influencers involved. The premise? A couple of them find themselves unknowingly causing chaos with Dricus du Plessis… before realising exactly who they’ve just messed with! What follows is pure gold, with jaw-dropping reactions, hilarious apologies, and some epic moments with fans hitting replay.

But who Are These Aussie Jokers?

The crew behind the madness is a wild mix of personalities, each bringing their own brand of chaos to the table. The Reesebros, a dynamic duo known for their over-the-top pranks and jaw-dropping social experiments, thrive on stirring the pot in the best way possible, earning them a massive following. Jackson O’Doherty, a social media wild card, constantly pushes the boundaries of comedy with pranks, skits, and absurd stunts that blur the lines between scripted mayhem and real-life madness. Then there’s Clayton’s World, whose offbeat humour keeps audiences questioning what they just watched—but always coming back for more.

Throw a UFC champion like Dricus du Plessis into the mix, and you’ve got a recipe for viral content that keeps fans talking.

Fans haven’t held back in their reactions, flooding the comment sections with absolute gems.

“This is the craziest colab ever🤣”

“Hulle het defnitief nie geweet nie” (They definitely didn’t know!)”

“We got du Plessis doing side quests”

It’s rare to see a fighter of Dricus’ calibre step into the world of social media pranks but it’s clear he’s having just as much fun as the fans watching. With millions of views and fans calling for more, it’s safe to say we haven’t seen the last of these hilarious collaborations. And if history is anything to go by, the next one might just be even bigger.
