Who is Big John on TikTok and what does ‘Bosh’ mean?
BIG John is known on TikTok for his hilarious videos about his love for Chinese food.
Here is everything you need to know about the man who often ends his videos with the sign-off "Bosh".
Who is Big John on TikTok?
"Big John" Fisher has become an internet sensation, documenting his life, love of Chinese cuisine, and for Luton FC.
He is the father of professional boxer Johnny Fisher and has arguably become more recognisable than him, gathering a loyal legion of fans.
In fact, the 49-year-old has become so well known that he started carrying out meet-and-greet events at UK universities in 2022.
He now boasts 200 thousand followers on TikTok alone.

He has another son, Will, who helps run his father's social media accounts.
According to his Insta bio, he is also a dad to Henry and Hetty.
He is married to Charlotte and brands himself the "Leader of the bosh soldiers of the Romford Bull Army".
Fans got a more in-depth glimpse into the Fisher clan's lives on Matchroom's "Gogglebosh" documentary, which followed the family ahead of Johnny's fifth professional fight and, in typical Big John fashion, ended with a mammoth Chinese takeaway for everyone involved.

What content does Big John do on TikTok?
He mostly documents his love of Chinese takeaways, signing off his videos with his catchphrase "Bosh".
But, he has been known to venture into other topics.
In one video, Big John refers to the Stop Oil protest which caused chaos on the M25 in November as protesters climbed the gantry over the major road.
The clip, which has millions of views, shows one of the protestors, a 24-year-old woman, outlining her reasons for being part of the protest.
In response, Big John says: "My name's Big John. I'm 49, not stone. I have just been stuck on the M25 for three and a half hours along with thousands of others.
"Have a Chinese and chill the f*** out. Bosh."
What does 'Bosh' mean?
The phrase "Bosh" has many meanings but, in Big John's case, we are safe to assume that it's a sign off indicating that Big John's wisdom has been imparted.
According to the dictionary, bosh describes something that is thought of as being nonsense or absurd.
But we're sure Big John doesn't mean it in this context - but more as a statement of getting things done.
How can I follow Big John on social media?
There are many ways to ensure you are among the first to see content posted by Big John.
Primarily, he is on TikTok using the handle @johnfisher2801.
However, his sons also help him run an account @boshtokk.
You can also watch videos on the BoshTV YouTube Channel and you can even pay for Big John to wish you a happy birthday on Cameo.
