YouTuber Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins Jr (19) is extremely popular among young people on YouTube, even in countries like Norway. The exuberant streamer has now painfully noticed that fans in the cool north get excited very easily.
Who is IShowSpeed?
In any case, IShowSpeed is extremely popular among young people, something he now painfully discovered:
IShowSpeed heats up a crowd in Oslo
That was the situation: IShowSpeed is a huge football fan and is currently travelling around Europe during the European Championships, touring the countries. In Germany, he caused a crowd to rush to a kebab shop and then caused people to shake their heads when he got behind the wheel of a car.
His latest trip took him to Oslo, Norway. He stood on the balcony of a souvenir shop and got the fans to shout “Siuu”, the battle cry of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo.
As is the kind of IShowSpeed who can’t even get a coffee without drama, he injured his ankle while celebrating himself and theatrically moaned: It’s broken, oh my God, it hurts so much.
Crowd attacks YouTuber
What went wrong? IShowSpeed had riled up the crowd of fans so much that on the short walk from the souvenir shop to a waiting car, they mobbed him, freaked out and jumped on him.
Streamer says: He has never been so scared
This is what the streamer says: He says his ankle was broken, his hair was ripped out and water was thrown at him. One even did a “WWE Rey Msterio” move and jumped on his car.
He swears that it was the worst day of his life. He couldn’t even breathe.
For IShowSpeed it is clear: He will never go to shitty Norway again.
IShowSpeed is also controversial among German YouTubers. The absolutely impeccable German YouTube star and Twitch streamer Unge has been critical of young US YouTubers. Luckily for Unge, it was about a dog, not a cat: Twitch streamer Unge calls young US star an animal abuser – receives tons of hate messages
