Why does Khabi Lame not speak in his videos?
Like many other TikTokers, Lame initially made videos of himself dancing, playing video games, or pulling funny faces. He then started making fun of the life-hack videos that are all over social media platforms, responding to them with a wordless shrug or an expression of irritation, and he hit a nerve.
In an interview, Lame said, “I came up with the idea because I was seeing these videos circulating, and I liked the idea of bringing some simplicity to it,” CNN reported. “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,” he added.

'This simplicity makes people laugh'
Fans from all across the world have been drawn to Lame's sarcastic humor, and they frequently send him recordings showing individuals doing straightforward activities in complex ways. “They know I’m the one who solves problems so they tag me or mention me and they’re like, ‘Khaby it’s your turn, solve this problem because we need you',” he said.
His stern facial expressions have also made him a meme star; his face has been reused in social media reaction videos. He has become one of the most recognizable content creators on social media as a result of these silent yet passionate reactions. “Maybe because my facial expressions are funny and they make people laugh, this simplicity makes people laugh and I love it,” Lame told CNN.
'Khabi has been saving humanity for free'
Lame receives several comments from his fans on every video that he posts. People thank him for making them smile while they are dealing with problems in their lives through his hilarious videos. In the comments section of one of the videos, a fan wrote, "Khabi has been saving humanity for free" while another added, "This man is saving the world from destruction." "Khaby out here saving lives," another user added.
