Emil Hansius (born February 23, 1995) is a Swedish YouTuber[2] and influencer[3] from Piteå who has made himself known through his YouTube channel where he publishes humor and reaction videos.[2][4] The channel was started in 2016 and has over 400,000 subscribers (as of 7 April 2024).[2][4] Hansius has been listed as one of the most powerful Swedes on YouTube, according to Maktbarometern.[3][5][6]

Emil Hansius started his YouTube channel in 2016[7] and has since shared his everyday life and adventures, from reactions to popular Swedish programmes and trends, to collaborations.[8] He has participated in a variety of projects and challenges that are documented on his channel. Among other things, he has tested life as a police officer, life as an SHL star for a day and "EPA-raggare".

Hansius has described himself as a "Norrbotten Patriot" who wants to show the beauty and various sides of the province through his content.[3] In 2023 he was named Piteås Resident of the Year, with his work to promote Piteå and Norrbotten being part of the motivation.[9][10]

Hansius is in a domestic partnership with Josefine Kitti, with whom he had a twin boy and girl in 2022.[9][11][12] A reality series featuring the pair premiered in April 2024 on Sveriges Television, the series, Hansius å Kitti - twins edition, covers their life as parents of twins.[13]
