A random YouTuber crashed the BAFTAs stage and stood next to Cillian Murphy while "Oppenheimer" received the Best Film award.

The prankster, Lizwani, joined actor Murphy, filmmaker Christopher Nolan and film producer Emma Thomas on stage. He stood quietly behind Thomas while she gave her acceptance speech.

The Youtuber made his way to the stage after the film producer invited the cast members to come up with her, saying, "Where are you? Come on, all of you!"

While he didn't cause much of a scene when he joined the "Oppenheimer" cast on stage during their major win, his presence at the awards show reportedly posed security concerns.

 

"A social media prankster was removed by security last night after joining the winners of the final award on stage," the organization said in a statement released after the incident, per the Daily Mail.

"We are taking this very seriously, and don't wish to grant him any publicity by commenting further."

Meanwhile, Lizwani took to Instagram to share screenshots of his airtime at the awards show while teasing his followers to watch out for his vlog.

Lizwani, who describes himself as an "ankle breaker by day [and an] entertainer by night," makes YouTube content about sneaking into different high-profile events.

In the past years, he has sneaked into the 2021 British Fashion Awards, football matches, the 2019 Wireless Music Festival, MOBO's Awards, Deji and Alex Wassabi's boxing match, the 2022 BRIT Awards and FIFA Ballon'Dor 2022, among many others.

He also crashed different online Zoom lessons and pretended to be an employee at several companies, including Fiverr, Tesco and McDonald's.

Lizwani currently has over 8,400 subscribers on YouTube.

 

After his BAFTA exposure, some netizens came to his latest vlog on YouTube, uploaded eight months ago, and asked for more information about him.

"Where's your BAFTA reaction? And, are you on TikTok?" commented one user.

A second user wrote, "Your next video is gonna go viral."

"Holy, respect for being respectful at BAFTA," someone else quipped.

But another user disagreed, saying, "Yeah, not really. He went up there and diverted attention from the award winners. Nothing about what he did was respectful."
