Twitch creator Youngdabo found himself in a frightening situation amid his after-prom party, as gunshots could seemingly be heard during his live stream. In the video, the streamer can initially be seen talking to his friends, when sounds of gunfire seemingly emanated through the party hall.

The Twitch streamer and his friends could then be seen running away from the area where the sound originated before the cameraman seemed to duck for cover, following which the stream cut out.

A clip of the ordeal has since been uploaded on r/LivesteamFail, with many netizens expressing their concern and speculations about who allegedly fired the shots.

One Reddit user speculated that an individual in a white shirt, who was standing next to the streamer at the start of the video apparently fashioned a gun himself before allegedly firing the shots heard at the end of the video. The user stated:

"At 0:48 I feel like that guy with curly hair whipped out a gun super fast and it kinda looks like a gun in his hand also the motion he makes. Edit: and its the same guy shooting at the end of the video. streamer says its fireworks but thats not true lol"

Another Redditor, enl1l, mentioned how the first few shots seemingly had a high rate of fire, and expressed his concern regarding the alleged usage of a weapon with such capability in a "crowded room". He stated:

"That rate of fire in a crowded room like that ..."
