Biography[]
Early life[]
Not much is known about Tong's early life. He was born on May 8, 1987 in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. He is the second son of Chinese immigrants.
Tong produced an early version of Paper Trail, a minute-long short film pertaining to a neighbor caught stealing newspapers, with director Travis Grant. The film caught the Vancouver Film School's attention and it subsequently issued scholarships to them. Tong graduated in 2008.
Career[]
Tong is better known by his alias Peter Chao. Under the username pyrobooby, Tong adopted the guise of Chao. Tong described the character as born and raised in Hong Kong, and "a zany Chinese immigrant forced into Canada by his prostitute mother. Instead of listening to his mother to go to school, he decided to pursue comedy on YouTube."
Tong's character Chao has drawn mixed reception, often being mistaken as a real person. As a result for posting racist content, the account had been previously suspended for a period of fourteen days after showing a video deemed to mock African-Americans. However, viewership has been positive. The Canton Style music video – a parody of Korean singer-rapper Psy's Gangnam Style – amassed 1.1 million views within three days of its uploading. His videos are, as of 2011, the number one and two most watched in Canada.
Tong has appeared frequently in Elite Canadian Championship Wrestling beginning July 6, 2013 in Port Coquitlam, B.C. where Colt Cabana taught him a few things about wrestling. He was a part of ECCW Ballroom Brawl at the Commodore Ballroom in January 2014, the largest attendance for independent wrestling in Vancouver in the last 25 years.
Tong's TV credits include Wu Assassins, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, Paper Champions, iZombie, The Flash and Legion, among others.
In 2021, Tong was cast as a Delivery Guy on A Million Little Things.
Personal life[]
In 2013, Tong married Chelsea McGeachy.
