Twitch star Matthew "Mizkif" was perplexed after discovering that a YouTube Shorts featuring him and fellow Twitch content creator Emily "Emiru" received over 163 million views on the platform.
Before premiering his Schooled IRL gameshow, featuring notable internet personalities such as Bonnie, Zoil, Simply, and Emiru, Mizkif wanted to know how many views a clip of him and Emiru playing Super Mario 64 had accrued.
His reaction after seeing the view count was:
"Emiru beating me in Mario 64? How much does that clip have nowadays? 'Mizkif Emiru Mario 64', let's see. Clip? Bro, why does this have 163 million views? Why? Wait, what the f**k?!"

Earlier today, Matthew hosted a five-and-a-half hour long livestream, during which he hosted the IRL version of his popular gameshow, Schooled!
At the 35-minute mark, he took the opportunity to introduce the gameshow to his viewers, but before that, he wanted to see how a viral clip on YouTube had performed.

"Let's see what the; this comment has 99,000 likes! Holy s**t! A comment has 99,000 likes! Jesus Christ!"
The Twitch star read out loud some comments and provided his take on the same:
"'It's because she's channeling the power of the 90s with that runic inscription on her shirt', yeah, that really; that does not deserve 99,000 likes. 'These aren't even the default settings. Proceeds to destroy his soul', you just copied this guy (the comment with 99k likes), and you failed."
