IShowSpeed ignites fireworks inside his room

The streamer is infamously known for his reckless and brazen behavior. A couple of such instances include him fighting in a public place and calling the police on his brother.

While celebrating the 4th of July in a stream, the streamer had the opportunity to interact with KSI over Face Time, where the duo discussed a potential charity match featuring the streamer.

However, the situation soon went southwards when the 19-year-old proceeded to take out a carton full of firecrackers in his room. Picking out a Pikachiu-shaped firework, the young YouTuber decided to light it up inside his room.

Once the excitement turned to horror upon realizing the mistake, he quickly called his mother, who appeared to have been berating the 19-year-old streamer for his reckless act. As the stream continued, he frantically explained to his mother:

"I didn't know. I didn't know. I thought it was the popping ones, maa."

Since the incident, IShowSpeed has given a solitary update on his Twitter, asking his viewers to pray for him. However, due to severe backlash and criticism for the dangerous behavior, the 19-year-old decided to take it down.
