A TikTok user has pleaded with his followers to fund him if he is caught and fined after he filmed himself sneaking into Wembley Stadium during the Euro 2020 final.
The teenager, known as J2hundred, uploaded a video of himself making his way to a seat in the stadium on Sunday night after he found a “gap” in an emergency exit door.
Despite police warning fans not to travel to Wembley if they didn’t have a ticket, J2hundred and his friend got into the stadium and to a seat as the match went into extra time.
The 19-year-old, who has 1.3 million followers on TikTok and more than 24,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel, claimed he only intended to film a vlog of himself going into the capital to watch the game but added, “little did I know that I was going to sneak into Wembley Stadium”.
However, once the press got hold of his video and reported on it online, J2hundred posted the Sky News report on his Instagram and wrote, alongside two nervous-looking emojis: “Go fund me if I get fined?”
He said it was a “sign from God” that he got in to watch the end of the game but he was slammed by followers and other social media users for his behaviour.
Warning: strong language
One Twitter used said: “There is stupid and then there is a complete moron!
“This idiot films himself committing a crime and then posted it up on the internet!!”
Another fan fumed: “One of the 1000s of idiots that spoiled Euro 2020 for hundreds. Well done..you’ve just f* our bid for the World Cup 2030.”
And the criticism kept coming with one calling him an “absolute t***” and adding that he hoped his YouTube account would be reported.
Another said, “Thick as hell. Let’s hope the police use this as evidence to charge you”, while another added: “I wish you had as many brain cells as you did subscribers and views… Filming yourself doing something illegal… priceless! Prat.”
In the video, which J2hundfred uploaded to his YouTube channel, he is seen arriving at the stadium and asks a steward how much it would cost to let him in, but the steward refuses to answer him.
The vlogger and his friend then push apart some fencing to get into the outer part of the stadium before coming across two boys who are pulling open what looks like an emergency exit door.
J2hundred then says: “It was a sign from God, we were meant to be in that stadium, there was just a gap in the door”.
Two men arrive and the group of them push through the gap before J2hundred is seen running up some stairs to an entrance for the stands and takes a seat in the aisle. He says to the camera: “We’ve done a madness, we have done an absolute madness”.
After the penalty shoot out, he adds: “Look at the disappointment in our faces, we did all of that just to watch England lose.”
i has contacted the Met Police and the FA for comment.
On Sunday, dozens of ticketless fans were broke down barriers and overpowered stewards outside the stadium as they forced their way in ahead of the final.
Staff were overwhelmed as supporters surged up the stairs and near the stadium’s Club Wembley entrance and eye-witnesses later reported seeing a number of people opening security doors near the turnstiles.
Fans also boasted about sneaking into Wembley without a ticket to watch England’s victory against Denmark in the semi-final.
