A German influencer famous for being overweight has compared himself to a beached whale after posting pictures of himself on a beach on Instagram.

The man, ‘Exsl95’, otherwise known as Tobias Eckmeier, 24, posted the picture of himself with the caption: “Rescue me” tagging environmental organisation Greenpeace.

The image implying that he needed help to be pushed back into the water gained over 25,000 likes from his fans.

The controversial social media star has no reservations about his physical attributes and answers all questions that he is sent like what is it like to have a small penis through to his excess weight, and in the past images have shown him dancing bare-chested in a Darth Vader mask.

Other questions have included what sort of aftershave do you use, to which he replied I don’t shave my backside, so why do I need an aftershave, and how often he masturbated, to which he replied: “Around 3 to 5 times a day.”

It is not the first time larger-than-life Eckmeier from Frankenthal, located in the south west of Germany, has posted revealing pictures of himself on social media.

Just a few days ago the influencer with 193,000 followers on Instagram and more than half a million YouTube followers posted a picture of himself squeezed into a bathtub covering his bits with a rubber duck and wearing a red hat and sunglasses.

He captioned the picture: “Tag someone who should take a dip with me. If you don’t like this you should take a drink of my bath water and give my rubber duck a kiss.”
