Usko Santavuori
Usko Volmar Abel Santavuori (16 January 1922, in Viipuri – 1 June 2003, in Espoo) was a Finnish sensationalist radio reporter. He achieved fame by groundbreaking programs where he took himself and the microphone to participate in various extraordinary events, such as diving and parachuting, instead of remaining a passive observer.

The only official who was notified of the event in advance was the chief of police, who had given his blessing. Santavuori's program aroused discussion due to the violence and uncouth language used by the arresting officers. The fake burglary was used as a basis for the 1951 comedy, '' Radio tekee murron'', where the protagonist is a young reporter with a penchant for the kind ...
