IT WAS 3:47 A.M. IN LOS ANGELES,
WHEN VIKTOR WROTE HIS LAST POST.
2.3 million followers. Gone in one second. Account balance: 2,847 dollars. All that was left after three years of building.
Viktor Vainglory was born Viktor Berger. Grew up above his parents' bakery in Pasadena. In 2019 he secretly created his first Instagram account. First post: 47 likes. Third: 156. In 2020 he quit the bakery job. His father didn't speak to him for three months: "You're throwing away what I gave my life for."
By year three, Viktor had 2.3 million followers. And 400,000 dollars in debt. 18-hour days. Panic attacks before every post. Sleeping pills. A broken relationship. His father died in December 2022. Viktor didn't go to the funeral. He had a brand deal shoot. 5,000 dollars. He needed the money.
Some saw his last post. Nobody understood it.
"I'm not real. You're not real. None of this is real."
Viktor isn't the first. He won't be the last. But he doesn't have to be you.
