Mini bio

How it started.

Born in Aydın, Türkiye, Ruhi began posting videos in 2012. His early channel, Ruhi Çenet Videoları, brought together information on a range of subjects. DonanımHaber’s January 2018 report records a channel that had already grown to 2.6 million subscribers.

Following his curiosity.

That early information format grew into a career making documentaries on location. His Rediscovery films take fans from underground caves to remote islands, with time spent listening to the people who call those places home. His current channel biography says he has visited 75 countries across six continents and that the series has reached audiences in 19 languages.

Films to spend time with.

Recent work includes a visit inside El Salvador’s CECOT prison, winter life in Oymyakon, an expedition into Vietnam’s Sơn Đoòng cave and conversations with people living beneath Las Vegas. In October 2026, he shared films about the voyage to Tristan da Cunha and life on the island itself.
