In a recent clip uploaded by Pokimane, YouTuber and Sidemen member Olajide "KSI" could be seen pranking Korean YouTuber Kwak "Kwaktube", both of whom were participating in MrBeast's latest video titled, 50 YouTubers Fight For $1,000,000. The video involved fifty creators completing various challenges while being put in a glass cube-like structure, which they were not allowed to exit. The creators even ended up spending a night within the structure, with them sleeping on mattresses on the floor.

A clip has since emerged showcasing KSI pranking Kwaktube by waking him up from his sleep under the pretense that a challenge had begun and required his attention. It has gone viral on X and has since been watched over 372,000 times.


KSI pranks Kwaktube during MrBeast's challenge video involving 50 YouTubers

MrBeast's latest video, uploaded on July 13, 2024, has become massively popular on YouTube, crossing over 64 million views within 24 hours of being posted. As of writing, the video still holds the #2 spot on the platform.

Manyprominent names within the content creation industry could be seen in the video, including Kai Cenat, Darren "IShowSpeed", Imane "Pokimane" and many others from various countries.

However, this particular clip involving Olajide "KSI" was not part of MrBeast's YouTube video. It originated from a vlog uploaded by Pokimane on her own YouTube channel, where she detailed the entire experience from her point of view. The clip showed KSI trying to pry Kwak awake by shaking him. He could be heard shouting:

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Come! Come! Come! Come on, there's a challenge! Challenge! Challenge Challenge! Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

He was also pulling his hand lightly to get him up to his feet, but Kwak realized that something was amiss. He started smiling after sitting up as he came to the understanding that KSI was conducting a prank. The Briton could then be seen hugging Kwak afterward while laughing.


There have been varied accounts of KSI's behavior during the shooting of the video for MrBeast. In a live stream on June 7, 2024, Rachell "Valkyrae" commended the Sidemen member, stating that she appreciated KSI going up to everyone to personally introduce himself.

However, the same can not be said for Ludwig, another victim of KSI's prank. Talking about their interactions together, KSI was of the opinion that Ludwig was "annoying" and was "getting under his skin".

Stating that he knew exactly why KSI made such a statement, Ludwig claimed that KSI was going up to individuals while they were sleeping and would "yell" at them to wake them up. As the American creator subsequently revealed, KSI had done the same to him as well, which led to him feeling "stressed" out.
