If you’ve ever wanted a reward at the end of a long, uphill hike—well, Pietro Boselli just became that fantasy. The Italian model, fitness icon, and certified heartthrob recently posted a video that’s sending social media into a tailspin: a clip of him skinny diving (yes, diving—without a stitch on) into icy blue waters surrounded by jaw-dropping mountain views. It’s part nature, part thirst trap, and entirely chef’s kiss.

Sun-kissed and glowing like an actual Roman god, Pietro looks right at home perched on the edge of a boulder, letting the mountain breeze kiss his skin as he leaps into the cold, clear water with his very apparent tan line in clear view. And just in case we weren’t already hypnotized by the visuals, his caption reads like a dreamy journal entry straight out of a meditation retreat:
“At home in the wild. 10,000 feet high. The air is rarified, the sun is closer, the water icy cold. You can smell the resin from the pines. A chipmunk darts between sun and shade. You knew it but now you really feel it: existing is enough.”

Existing may be enough, but Pietro existing like this? That feels like a gift to humanity. And while the internet predictably erupted with swoons, double taps, and eye emojis, Boselli wasn’t just showing off for show-off’s sake. There’s something authentic and grounded in his connection with nature—and he makes skinny dipping at high altitude look like a spiritual experience.

Of course, if you’ve followed Pietro long enough, you know he’s not just a pretty face (though, to be clear, that face and body is ridiculous). When he’s not diving into glacial lakes or modeling for high-end brands, the former engineering lecturer has been leaning into his creative side. That’s right—he paints. And quite well, too. Over the last few months, Pietro has been sharing glimpses of his art studio, where he’s been quietly creating bold, expressive works that show another side of the ever-evolving artist.

In a world of influencers, filters, and performative perfection, Pietro Boselli’s content feels like a breath of crisp mountain air. Whether he’s lifting weights at the beach, capturing raw nature on canvas, or leaping nude into a freezing lake like it’s the most natural thing in the world, he reminds us that sensuality and sincerity can coexist.

So what’s the takeaway here? Well, if you weren’t already in love with Pietro Boselli, chances are you are now. He’s living proof that intelligence, creativity, beauty, and boldness can all come wrapped up in one very chiseled package.
If you’re feeling the sudden urge to lace up your hiking boots, find the nearest mountain, and hope a Pietro-like figure is waiting at the summit—same. But in the meantime, we’ll just be over here watching that video on loop.
I’m in love with him
