Content creator and entrepreneur Thee Pluto is back in the spotlight after revealing the real reason he temporarily quit forex trading — and it all traces back to the viral sky-boarding video that had Kenyans talking nonstop.
The YouTuber, known for flaunting a luxurious lifestyle and leveraging tech skills for business, said the clip he shot while vacationing in Bali, Indonesia, pushed him to step away from forex for a while.
The now-infamous video showed Pluto sky-boarding with an instructor supporting him mid-air. What was meant to be a fun holiday activity quickly turned into meme material across social media platforms. Some online users used the moment to question his sexuality, fueling a storm of jokes, banter, and misinterpretations.
The clip, captioned “Gravity ain’t got nothin’ on this hustle,” went viral earlier in September, forcing Pluto to address the online chatter. He urged his fans and critics to stop twisting the harmless moment, even revealing that the backlash nearly affected his relationship.
“Hii ujinga yenu imefanya current atishie kuniacha. Karibu aamini hizo story manze. Kuweni wapole,” he said in a frustrated post at the time.
Now, for the first time, Pluto has openly shared the personal impact the trolling had on him. Taking to his Instagram stories, he explained:
“I have been taking a break from Forex since my sky-boarding scenario at Bali, Indonesia.”
He accompanied the message with an Indonesian flag emoji, confirming that the trolling pushed him into an unexpected hiatus from trading.
But in classic Pluto style, he also hinted at a powerful comeback. He posted a flashy display featuring phones and car keys, teasing fans with the message:
“Guess what??? I’m backkkkkk!!”
With his return to the forex world now confirmed, fans are eagerly watching to see what Thee Pluto does next — and whether he’ll address the viral incident further.
