He is also an amateur soccer player and has posted videos of his skills.
Gaillard has appeared in several sport events, TV game shows and political rallies.
Gaillard shot his first sketch in 1999 with a friend in Montpellier. In 2001, he created an internet website.,

Gaillard's motto
Gaillard's motto is C'est en faisant n'importe quoi qu'on devient n'importe qui ("It's by doing whatever, that one becomes whoever.").
The majority of Gaillard's sketches are of the hidden camera type, in which the antagonist performs an unexpected or surprising action to elicit humorous responses from the bewildered witnesses. Gaillard often disguises himself in outlandish costumes for the pranks. During some pranks, Gaillard is accompanied by a crowd of friends, giving the action a flashmob-like nature. Some other videos may feature acrobatics like aiming footballs at distant goal-like objects, or more still aim to antagonize police forces he interacts with during his sketches.
