Internet personality IShowSpeed recently announced that he has been banned from YouTube. With over 27 million subscribers, IShowSpeed is known for his adventurous travels and eye-catching content. However, his ban came after a livestream where he performed a dangerous stunt involving a sports car.
During the livestream, IShowSpeed stood in a road as a car drove towards him. With perfect timing, he jumped over the car, leaving viewers in awe. But the stunt sparked a debate online, with some expressing concern that it could inspire others to attempt dangerous acts.
Taking to his YouTube channel after the stunt, IShowSpeed addressed his ban, saying, “Hey guys, if y’all are watching this right now, I’m banned on YouTube on my main channel. I cannot stream or do anything, guys. I just wanted to let y’all know. I love y’all.”
The safety disclaimer in the video highlighted that the stunts were performed by professionals and should not be attempted by viewers. This precautionary measure aimed to ensure the safety of the audience and discourage any dangerous imitations.
However, the troubles for IShowSpeed didn’t end there. While on a trip to Norway, he found himself surrounded by a crowd of fans. As footage captured the chaotic scene, IShowSpeed struggled to reach his waiting car, experiencing physical harm in the process. After finally reaching safety, he expressed how terrified he was, stating, “This was the scariest day of my life. I promise you. I couldn’t even breathe.”
IShowSpeed later shared more details on his second YouTube account, revealing that during the incident, his hair was pulled and he had liquid thrown at him. Furthermore, an unknown individual even jumped into his car uninvited.
The ban has left many of his loyal subscribers disappointed, as they will no longer be able to enjoy his content on YouTube. While the livestream incident may have caused the ban, it is a reminder for viewers to prioritize their safety and avoid attempting dangerous stunts seen online.
