Vesa-Matti Loiri (the actor) is also a talented billiards player, and he showcases his skills in the movie Uuno Turhapuro in the Army in 1984. In reality, he only played kaisa, which was the only competitive form of billiards in Finland at that time. He reached the 14th place at the best in the Finnish championship results. Among other things, Loiri has served as the chairman of the Finnish Billiards Association in 1993 and 1994-1999 and received a silver medal of merit from the association in 1989. Among sports, Loiri has practiced boxing, football, handball, water polo, ice hockey, billiards and golf. In 1969, he said that he was playing ball "from ice hockey to billiards". Loiri always played in team sports as a goalkeeper. He has achieved the Finnish championship in water polo and handball. Of the sports, he has said that he took football and boxing the most seriously. He gave up his sports career for acting.
Uuno Turhapuro movies are Finnish comedy films, that critics hated, but the people loved. They tried multiple times to get support from Suomen Elokuvasäätiö (Finnish Movie Association?) but failed. The movies were made 1973-2004, and for what I understand later they finally got the support. This is a big (and funny) part of our cultural history, so thank you for watching and reacting! 🤩
This is one of my favorite Uuno Turhapuro clips cause I play pool myself and Vesku was actually amazing talent and a real magician in pool. At one point in the 90s he was actually the president of Finnish Billiards association. He was great at many other sports as well. He was a multi-talent, his sports were at least but not limited to: hand-ball, water-ball, soccer, boxing and billiards.
Vesa-Matti Loiri was pretty good at Kaisa. version of billiards, but smaller pockets that ball just fits in, bit different rules too. difficult. we had Kaisa tables in FDF.
The presenter Vesa-Matti Loiri was a multi-talent, actor, musician, won the pool Finland championship and played water polo at the Finnish championship level, was a goalie in football and ice hockey and I must have missed something, but he also did a lot of respected person in Finland, may his soul rest in peace. roles in the National Theater, e.g. Dostojeviks, etc. and also good roles in films such as Road to the North, I recommend if you can find it with English subtitles.
