Digital content creator Matt Batista has sparked intense online debate following the release of a high-stakes collaborative video with YouTuber NicoIsCold or Nico Grigg titled "I Snuck Onto Jeffrey Epstein's Island." The viral video, which documents Matt Batista and Nico Grigg trespassing on the private estate of Little St. James or the Epstein Island, has quickly accumulated millions of views.

The video follows Batista and Grigg as they travel to the US Virgin Islands to investigate the 72-acre property formerly owned by the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Utilizing a combination of drone surveillance and jet skis, the duo managed to reach the shoreline of the island, which is currently undergoing redevelopment into a luxury resort by billionaire Stephen Deckoff.
During the footage, Batista and Grigg identified several unidentified individuals and a mystery boat docked at the island.

Batista noted that the presence of security and the physical difficulty of the terrain, specifically sea urchins and rocky shores, prevented them from exploring deep into the island's interior.
