You've probably noticed that Khaby Lame rarely speaks in his videos and there's a good reason why that is. In an interview with CNN, he explained: "I came up with the idea because I was seeing these videos circulating, and I liked the idea of bringing some simplicity to it. The type of gesture came by chance, but the silence didn’t. I thought of a way to reach as many people as possible. And the best way was not to speak." [via Instagram]
