He is Robert Reynolds. He became viral immediately. For a moment, he was in the headlines and all over social media.

Seizing the moment, he embraced his unexpected online fame and even created a web series where he is Van Gogh and he got transported to the present day New York City.

 

There was one episode where he made a joke about the creepshot that sparked his online fame.

Eventually, all the buzz died down and all became normal again. Then last week, one Tweet served as a match that made the fire burn again.
