A lighthearted video has gone viral after a Kenyan man offered comically large “earpods” to Bradley Marongo, the country’s tallest Gen Z figure.
Marongo rose to national fame during the Finance Bill 2024 protests, where his impressive height made him stand out in a crowd. Since then, he has attracted media attention and signed several brand deals, using his stature as a unique marketing advantage.
In a trending video shared on social media, a man is seen holding giant earpiece-shaped Bluetooth speakers, claiming they were the right fit for Marongo.
“Kenyan Goliath, I told you I have earpods that can fit you, but you did not respond,” the man joked, pointing to the oversized gadgets.
He went on to demonstrate features of the device, including Bluetooth connectivity and memory card support, while a bystander confirmed that they might indeed fit Marongo.
Many netizens found the video amusing, including Marongo’s manager, Director Trevor. Here are some reactions:
- _.clout: “If you set this in the house, people think it’s a music system.”
- chubby_babylon: “This can only be charged from a transformer.”
- iam.tessssa: “Now this is the AirPod Pro Max.”
- liam_lamars: “That’s the size befitting Goliath. Ear woofer!”
- ssup_kevoh: “There is violence everywhere.”
- esir_ranking69: “He said it’s too tiny; he wants a woofer.”
Marongo Eyes International Stardom
In a recent interview on The Trend with Amina Abdi, Marongo opened up about his journey. He shared that his exceptional height became noticeable in Class Seven, but financial hardships forced him to drop out in Form One.
After working in the matatu industry, his fame skyrocketed thanks to viral videos and his standout appearance. He now partners with multiple brands locally and internationally.
Looking ahead, Bradley revealed he’s scheduled to travel to Dubai in November, take on a film role in India in December, and head to the U.S. in January. He also mentioned he’s currently working with two managers and is scouting for a personal assistant to help with his busy schedule.
His inspiring story continues to captivate fans, proving that uniqueness, determination, and resilience can lead to global opportunities.
