Vladimír Kadlec, whom you are looking for on Instagram, is a Czech YouTuber known under the nickname VladaVideos (Vláďa Videos). He founded his YouTube channel around 2013 and later also publicly prepared for an MMA fight. The exact name of his Instagram account can be found via the link on his official YouTube channel; the short “@vlada” may not belong to him.
### Who is Vladimír Kadlec, aka VladaVideos?
Vladimír Kadlec is a Czech internet content creator who founded the VladaVideos channel around 2013, while still studying accounting and graphic design at a private secondary school. He comes from Ostrava and moved to Prague for his work, as he described in an interview for Aktuálně.cz
.
According to the same interview, his first popularity came from Canadian prank phone calls. He later moved on to commentary on internet happenings and lifestyle content, i.e., videos about his everyday life. He himself stated that it took roughly four years before his work started to support him financially.
Area What is publicly documented Source
Beginnings Channel founded around 2013, first success with phone prank calls Aktuálně.cz
Content Commentary on internet culture, lifestyle, later preparation for MMA Aktuálně.cz, TV Nova
Sport Planned debut with the Oktagon organisation; the fight did not take place iSport.cz
Other projects A book about his dog Vodopád iSport.cz
### How do you find his genuine profile on Instagram?
The reliable route is through his official YouTube channel VladaVideos, not by searching for the short username “@vlada”. Short usernames often belong to other people, and imitators also pose as well-known creators.
- Open the VladaVideos YouTube channel and, if its description or channel header links to Instagram, use that link.
- Compare the name, profile picture and post content with what he publishes on YouTube.
- Check whether the account has a verification badge; we explain how verification works in the article about the blue tick on Instagram
. A missing badge does not in itself mean the account is fake.
- Do not trust accounts that offer prizes or investments in his name, or ask for login details. Report such a profile directly in the app. The imitated creator may also file a separate report under the Instagram help guidance on accounts that pretend to be someone else
(status as of November 2026). If you have lost money or login details because of a fake account, contact the Policie ČR.
For a sense of scale, according to iSport
had over 618 thousand followers on Instagram, 716 thousand subscribers on YouTube and over 170 million views in January 2022. This is historical data; check current figures directly on the profile.
### What is he known for besides YouTube?
Most of his attention outside his videos came from preparing for an MMA (mixed martial arts) fight. According to iSport
he was due to debut in the Oktagon organisation against Slovak influencer Peter Altof (Expl0ited), but the fight was repeatedly postponed due to the pandemic and ultimately did not take place.
In an interview he openly admitted that the cancellation troubled him for a long time, and hinted that he wants to get involved in Czech-Slovak MMA in a different way. The same article also mentions his book about his dog Vodopád and that he turned down offers to take part in reality shows.
He also spoke about his path from YouTuber to sport, internet controversies and the future of television in the programme NFN Talks on TV Nova
in August 2021.
### What can a smaller creator learn from his approach?
His path does not provide figures you can adopt, but it does offer an approach: long patience, willingness to change format, and a narrative of a personal project that audiences keep returning to. The following points are based on what he has publicly described himself.
#### Expect several years of work
If a creator with a large audience today says their content began to pay off after roughly four years, it is realistic to expect a long period with your own profile too. Plan your content so that you can keep creating it regularly, even when results take a long time to arrive.
#### The format may evolve
He gradually moved from phone pranks to commentary and lifestyle content. The format you start with does not have to be the one you grow up with. Watch which posts people save and share, and adjust your future content accordingly; how to do this is described in the article Instagram statistics: how to read them
.
#### A long-term project as a story
Preparing for the match was a story spanning months: training sessions, postponements and disappointments. The audience follows the journey, not just the result, and openness even in failure builds trust. For your own profile, this can be a renovation, preparation for a race or the launch of a business.
#### One identity across all networks
Using the same handle on YouTube and Instagram makes it easier for people to find the right account. Use the same name and profile photo on all networks, and link your profiles to each other.
- Choose one main format and one secondary network where you share excerpts from it.
- Set a realistic posting frequency that you can maintain for months.
- Once a month, review your statistics and adjust your topics accordingly.
- Find a personal project whose progress you can share gradually.
- Unify the name and appearance of your profiles and check that the links between them work.
How Instagram decides whom to show posts to is covered in a separate article about the Instagram algorithm
.
### When paid promotion makes sense and when it does not?
Paid followers or likes cannot replace content or the long-term work shown in the VladaVideos story. Meta Community Standards
apply to Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and Threads and their anti-spam rules
prohibit the sale, purchase or exchange of interactions such as likes, shares, views or follows (status as of November 2026; verify the current wording on Meta's website). Restrictions on reach or accounts therefore cannot be ruled out, and our own terms of service, clause 3.3
.
Path What it delivers What it does not provide
Original content and consistency An audience that is interested in you and data on what works Quick results
Official Instagram advertising Showing a post to a selected group of people in line with the rules Certainty that people will start following or buying
Paid follower package A higher number on the profile as initial social proof Audience interest, comments, sales or reach; check the monetization and verification conditions in Instagram's help centre. Buying interactions is not among the permitted methods
The package can help as an initial social proof (the impression that the profile already interests someone) for a new profile with quality content, or as support for a specific campaign alongside your own work. It makes no sense if content is missing, if you want to meet monetization or verification conditions, if the account already has a warning or restriction, or if you expect sales and people's reactions; buying followers may also worsen the ratio of interactions to followers. If you decide to go ahead after weighing the risks, you will find the service description on the page followers on Instagram
and current prices in price list
.
### Frequently asked questions
#### Who is Vladimír Kadlec on Instagram?
Under the name Vladimír Kadlec, the well-known Czech YouTuber VladaVideos (Vláďa Videos) is known on Instagram; he started around 2013 and later also publicly prepared for an MMA fight. Other people also bear the name Vladimír Kadlec, so always check whether the profile matches the content of his YouTube channel, and take the exact account name from the link provided on the channel.
#### How many followers does VladaVideos have on Instagram?
According to iSport, in January 2022 he had over 618 thousand followers on Instagram and 716 thousand subscribers on YouTube. This is historical data; counts change continuously. The current figures can only be checked directly on his profile, and numbers stated on unofficial websites should be treated with caution.
#### How can I recognise a fake account pretending to be a well-known YouTuber?
Compare the username, photos and content with the official YouTube channel, and use the link the creator provides. Accounts with few posts, prize offers in exchange for contact details, or requests for login details are suspicious. Report such an account directly in the app; the Instagram Help Center describes how to report impersonation. Never send passwords or verification codes, and if you have lost money or data, contact the Policie ČR.
#### Can a small creator grow in a way similar to VladaVideos?
Copying his numbers makes no sense, because he started at a different time and in a different environment. However, his approach can be adopted: persevere through the first years without major results, adapt the format based on audience reactions, maintain one recognisable identity across all networks, and share a long-term personal project that people come back to.
#### Will buying followers help me get noticed as an influencer?
Probably not. Purchased followers bring no audience interest, comments or sales, and they can worsen the ratio of engagement to follower count, which brands look at when choosing collaborations. Moreover, Meta’s rules prohibit buying engagement, so account restrictions cannot be ruled out. Content and consistency remain decisive.
