Gaspar Prim Díaz (28 December 2002 – 14 June 2026), better known as Gaspi, was an Argentine YouTuber and Internet personality.

Prim registered his YouTube channel in late 2013, and had few subscribers but published numerous streams. He initially gained traction a few years later on Instagram, before returning to YouTube and achieving significant popularity in 2021. In his YouTube videos, he would mainly post street interviews incorporating dark humor and sexually suggestive questions or jokes, while also posting himself making crude remarks to strangers.

On 14 June 2026, Prim died in an aviation collision in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, which also resulted in the deaths of five others including singer/songwriter Oliver Tree.

Life and career

Prim was born on 28 December 2002, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He also held Chilean dual citizenship, living in La Serena for four years, and had formerly played football for the junior divisions of Club Deportivo Universidad de Chile and Deportes La Serena.

Starting his YouTube channel in December 2013, Prim initially gained a following on Instagram. In 2021, he returned to his YouTube channel and began publishing various videos there, and he subsequently rose to greater popularity, accumulating, as of July 2026, 3.26 million subscribers to his channel, despite having published only a handful of videos. Between 2022 and 2024, he took a hiatus from posting content.

Prim was known for his provocative street interviews where he asked controversial questions to passers by, with his content often featuring dark humor and sexual references. His controversial style resulted in a number of his videos being removed from online platforms.

On 26 July 2025, Prim participated in La Velada del Año 5, the fifth event of the La Velada del Año, an annual boxing competition featuring various online personalities. He lost by knockout in the first round against Perxitaa.

Up until his death, Prim widened the format of his videos, incorporating vlogs, interviews, and direct rebroadcasting. He also started addressing more serious themes, tending to politics and social questions, using his comic style to comment upon actuality. In May 2026, he announced the series Gaspi visita tu hogar (Gaspi visits your home).

Death

In June 2026, Prim and fellow Argentine Lucas A. Vignale were in Brazil and took part in events linked to American singer Oliver Tree's first world tour, which promoted his album Love You Madly Hate You Badly. On 14 June, Prim, Tree, Vignale, and three other people were killed in an aerial collision that occurred at Recreio dos Bandeirantes, in Rio de Janeiro. Prim was 23 years old. After his death, Gaspi visita tu hogar was cancelled.[citation needed]
