Mumbai, October 5: IShowSpeed, a YouTuber, was taken to the hospital by paramedics after a scientific experiment during a live streaming went horribly wrong. During the streaming, the 18-year-old streamer, who is renowned for his expressive replies when playing video games, recently undertook a 'Elephant toothpaste' experiment in his bedroom. However, the experiment did not proceed as intended, and toxic fumes were discharged into his house.
"It didn't work! What is going on? Is it working? Oh my f**king God, it's not doing it! ... Ah, I can't breathe", the streamer can be heard yelling in the video before he and the camera person left his room. Meanwhile, in the background, a fire alarm can be heard.
