IShowSpeed, one of the most popular YouTube streamers, has achieved a remarkable milestone of 19 million subscribers on his channel. However, the celebration was not without some drama, as his fans decided to troll him by unsubscribing in masses.
The streamer, who is known for his hot-headed and controversial content, was eagerly waiting to hit the 19-million mark on August 3, 2023. He was streaming live from his hospital bed, where he has been admitted for a week due to severe headaches and other medical issues.
As he was about to reach the goal, he noticed that his subscriber count had suddenly dropped by a couple thousands. He realized that his fans were playing a prank on him by unsubscribing and resubscribing repeatedly. He reacted with a mix of frustration and amusement, saying “Wtf bi*ch, I am in the hospital right now.”
