In a desperate attempt for increasingly edgy 'content', a YouTube streamer went and did this earlier in the week...


The TTS (text to speech) feature allows viewers to play a message or recording out of the streamer's speaker when they donate. So all of this for a couple of dollars...

Arab Andy, a YouTuber who is known for pulling pranks and livestreaming them on YouTube and other online mediums, was arrested Thursday after he planned a fake bomb scare at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, making students scream and run for their lives.

What a complete and utter idiot. I'm surprised he didn't get shot.
 
These idiots need to be made examples of, once and for all. And Youtube / Twitch / whatever need to step up and ban them permanently once and for all. Of course that's unlikely to happen because profit.
 
Ahh modern technology, in the past you might not have spotted a complete idiot for a while... thesedays.. well its easy.

Hope he gets put away for a nice long term.
 
Yep I was following this right as it occured. He became famous from another autistic streamer known as ice poseidon. Pretty much never filtered his TTS and the other week did the same thing in starbucks and now it's come back to bite him. He could be looking at 10 years.
 
Anyone who says "brah/bro" that many times in normal speech should probably be culled for the sake of the gene pool anyway...
 
the sad thing is you are often rewarded for such antics on social media.thats why it continues gets worse.i believe in the not to far future we will have a real version of the running man.
 
Of all the times the cops empty their magazines into unarmed people, this one would have been justified.
 
he should have made it look like a briefcase bomb instead, he'd have got an invite to the Whitehouse to show off the "clock" he "made"

Personally I think the money received should be considered proceeds of crime and taken back by the state, the people donating money are basically paying someone to commit a crime and should also bear criminal responsibility for incitement.
