"Need to get a power strip": Kick streamer who stuck a fork in a toaster appears to be fine after sharing clip on Twitter and complaining about repairing home electricity

While sticking a metallic object into an electrical machine while it's on is incredibly dangerous, the GooseIsLoose appears to have received no serious injuries himself. He even took to Twitter to share the exact moment he inserted the fork into the toaster while making breakfast.

The short clip depicts the streamer toasting some waffles in the said toaster while talking about his preference of how he likes to eat it. Looking at the chat, he claimed that peanut butter on waffles tastes very good and everyone should try it:

"If you have never had waffles with peanut butter? You are seriously missing out."

After claiming that, he appeared to be fiddling with the waffles in the toaster with a metal fork and touched some part of the machine that clearly wasn't advisable. With a big spark, the stream cut off as the camera froze, indicating that his power had gone due to some form of short circuit or other malfunction that had been caused by the accident.

GooseIsLoose's tweet lends credence to the argument as he complained that he would have to go to the store to fix his power. He stated:

"I was trying to make breakfast on @KickStreaming this morning 🤦🏼‍♂️ now I need to go and get a new power strip"
