Kaitaia's D'Angelo Martin started his Facebook page Tuturu Maori to share his humour via videos with his friends.
As far as the humour goes, think "cheeky" or "hard case", and don't tune in if the "f bomb" or occasional drug reference offends. More than 17,000 people have tuned in though, that's how many people have "liked" his page and unique skits.
The 17-year-old Te Wharekura o Te Rangi Aniwaniwa student doesn't have a flash camera or editing equipment but he has got Facebook, a phone, an iPad and a funny bone. He started his page in May last year and films videos of himself performing skits based on real life experience he, or his friends, have faced - but he had no idea these videos would soon be watched by 17,000 people.
"Intentionally, it was just for my mates and then it started to get recognition from the public, I never expected it would be at where it is now. It's pretty out of it," he said.
