==Personal life==
Adiy Irfan was born on November 4, 1998, in Balikpapan, East Kalimantanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HmZ5f47zgU. Since childhood, he has enjoyed creative activities such as drawing, calligraphy, and videography.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys5fy3TrxI0&t=517s
When Irfan was in 6th grade, he developed his creative hobby, by trying out new things, specifically animations. At that time, he only used simple applications such as Microsoft Paint and Movie Maker. He learned a lot from his older sister, who is also engaged in graphic design. At the beginning of studying video editing, he started by creating video meme content.
Irfan continued to develop his editing skills, especially in animation. When he was in middle school, he learned to create animations with more sophisticated applications such as Pivot Animator and Adobe Flash. Since then, Irfan has often watched videos on YouTube and wanted to try uploading his own, but he didn't understand how to do it. In the past, YouTube and creator content were not as popular as they are now, and videos and content creators from Indonesia were still very few and dominated by lip sync content. Irfan was inspired by many old Indonesian YouTubers, such as Janggo 0410, Ewing HD, Pandoev, Arkhazel, Reza Arap, and Eno Bening.
==YouTube career==
===Beginning===
Erpan created a YouTube channel in 2011 when he was in middle school and participated in the lip sync trend at that time by making fun lip sync videos with his friends with the song "The Lazy Song" by Bruno Mars in a video entitled Liping Gila Gila.mp4. This video later became the first video Erpan uploaded on his first channel which he named Erpan Hight (Now biji_onta). On this channel, Irfan also uploaded videos several times but it was not well conceptualized. At that time he uploaded some gaming content as well, such as Lost Saga. 
===Passionate===
Erpan started getting serious in his passion in the creative world by majoring in Multimedia Technology at SMK Airlangga Balikpapan. As he honed his skills, he learned to edit with the After Effects applications and studied tutorials from the Tara Arts channel. Erpan also decided to create a YouTube channel for gaming-specific content, inspired by YouTubers such as Janggo 0410 and Ewing HD. In 2014, Erpan created a new YouTube channel that he still uses today, called Erpan1140. He chose the number 1140 by reversing his birth date. The number 11 is his birth month and 40 is his birth date in reverse.
Erpan started his career on the Erpan1140 channel with a horror game. His first video was playing a horror game called "The Midnight Man", which he uploaded on January 14, 2014. At that time, Erpan could upload videos on his channel 2 to 3 times a month. Erpan wanted to be more active by uploading videos more often, but he had limited space to shoot freely at his house. This resulted in Irfan using his friend’s empty house to use as a place to shoot his gaming videos. Back then, Irfan didn't even know that YouTube could make money. He was active on YouTube because his only goal was to develop the videography and gaming skills that he enjoyed.
===Prominence===
When Erpan was in high school, he discovered Minecraft, a sandbox game that allows its players to be creative. Erpan chose this as his gaming content by uploading his first Minecraft video in July 2014. As time went on, Erpan's channel grew. He began to explore various types of games besides Minecraft. Back then, He would also make gaming tutorials, tips and tricks, unboxing, game reviews, and prank videos. Sometimes, Erpan would even show his own animated works. 
Irfan would then realize that YouTube viewership are not only teenagers and adults, but also children. For that reason, he tries not to say bad words in every video.
==Trivia==
* Erpan's name is often confused as "Andi" instead of "Adiy". This is due to the former having been wrongfully entered into his family card.https://youtu.be/7x-6YbPIsJY?t=206
* Erpan has two older sister.
