An American jet ski instructor has captured the internet's attention due to his striking resemblance to Australian actor Jacob Elordi. Sam Anderson, who works as a guide at Tybee Island Watersports on the coast of Georgia, has been dubbed 'Jacob Affordi' by social media users who see him as a budget version of the 'Euphoria' star.
Anderson regularly appears in the company's online content, often performing Baywatch-style re-enactments. One Instagram clip, which has garnered over four million views in a week, shows him in slow motion with an 80s rock soundtrack, grabbing his radio, putting on a life vest, and jumping onto a jet ski before motioning for customers to follow. The caption reads: 'POV: someone asks if our jet ski rentals are guided'.
Viewers have responded with a range of nicknames, with one commenter noting that falling for jet ski instructors on family vacations is a teenage rite of passage. The name 'Jacob Affordi' particularly stuck, prompting a video response from Anderson's colleague, who waved a dollar bill mockingly while Anderson snatched it and shook his head.
Some users have even suggested Anderson looks better than the Queensland-born actor. In a recent development, Anderson has begun exploring modeling, sharing photos from a beach photoshoot that highlight his signature smile and tanned physique.
