YouTube Gaming star Darren “IShowSpeed” wanted to play a scary game during his October 7 broadcast. While installing the game, the PC’s operating system alerted the streamer that the game could potentially be a virus.
He launched the malicious program, despite Windows warning him that he was installing dangerous software.
Soon after, Darren’s PC was hacked live on the stream, and he began to wear himself out. After seeing how his desktop started working, the former Twitch streamer loudly exclaimed:
“Oh no! F**k, no! No, no, no, no! F**k! No!”

“‘Are you sure you want to drive this?’ We ain’t no punk! I ain’t no punk! Are they trying to troll me? Come on, bro! Tell me what you can do, baby. “Last warning, bro, I ain’t ab*tch, bro. Come on! I’m ready! What now?”
Another popup appeared, saying that IShowSpeed made a “terrible decision,” and soon enough his PC started behaving strangely. The desktop began to malfunction, which immediately freaked out the YouTuber. He questioned his decisions:
“Oh, f**k. No, no, no, no. What did I do, bro?”

“Got to call the cops, man! Gotta call the cops! Gotta call the cops! Oh my God! Oh, wait. Are you okay? Wait, are you okay?”
After the policeman recorded the call, IShowSpeed explained the situation:
“Sir, I think the police have it; I think my PC has been hacked. My PC has been hacked! My PC has just been hacked, it’s just finished! My PC has been hacked! Yes, PC -mine’s been hacked! My PC’s been hacked, it’s been hacked!”
