‘Cool to see,’ Gio responds (in the photo in a white sweater) as he walks through the free stall barn before opening the door to let the cows out. Farmer’s son Tim Schep (17) managed to get the vlogger, with 1.32 million YouTube subscribers, enthusiastic about visiting the parental company in the shadow of Rotterdam.
Schep follows Gio on YouTube and had seen on a video Gio’s Ferrari driving past the family’s pasture plots. “Shall I send him a message asking if he wants to be at the cow dance Saturday?” he asked me, ‘says his mother Rianne de Wit.
Popular among young people
The surprise was great when the vlogger accepted her son’s invitation. ‘I didn’t know him at all. He is very popular among young people. Girls absolutely love him. Some of our daughter’s friends were very impressed. We have not indicated any further commotion because we would expect crowds. And of course that is not possible because of corona, ‘says De Wit.
De Wit is happy with the result of the video. ‘It has become a positive vlog. He did a lot of fun. During the birth of the calf, he did not show the blood. YouTube does not allow that. We think this mainly attracts young people who do not know anything about peasant life. That was also our idea to invite him. Young people are a somewhat difficult target group to reach. We hope this will improve the image of dairy farming. Due to corona, we can let people watch live less. This is a great way to reach people. ‘
Live on Instagram
The family also went live on Instagram and Facebook themselves, chasing the cows out. ‘Normally about a thousand people come here to watch when the cows go out for the first time. We still wanted to give them the opportunity to be there via the internet. ‘
More than 203,000 people have vlogged Gio’s most awkward mcdrive ride ever! This fight is really not possible! Viewed. The video has generated 8,800 likes and more than 400 comments so far. ‘It’s great to see you fly farm life for once. In this way, people from the city can also see what it really is like, ‘one viewer responds.
