"Accidental Turk" Chases Accidents in Istanbul

(Sözcü Newspaper, 16 November 2020)














                              Every boy needs a hobby. 


In Istanbul, Fatih Türkoğlu (27), a systems expert, rushes to the scenes
of vehicle accidents, takes a selfie and then posts them on social media.
Lately, Türkoğlu has become a social media star because of his "hobby"
and is known as "accident man".  















                           He's a first-responder, sort of.


However (!), it turns out that Türkoğlu is a reluctant star and has
become quite fed up with his notoriety.  Nevertheless, he presses on.
He explained that  his first effort involved a TIR (tractor trailer) 
accident, for which he garnered a lot of "likes" on social media.
Türkoğlu added that "It caught peoples' attention.  My aim was to 
show the consequencses of speeding.  Then I got used to doing it 
and it's my hobby anymore."














Sunglasses adopted when social media fame
got to be just too much.
