Popular content creator Arab has managed to terrify iShowSpeed with his elaborate prank that involves gang members grouping the American, leading him to believe that he was being kidnapped on his visit to Brazil.
Brazil is not exactly the safest country in the world and getting grouped by gang members is not a very uncommon occurrence there especially with a foreigner. iShowSpeed is known to explore cities on his visit with a vlogging camera which is a dead giveaway that he is a tourist that might attract the attention of the anti-socials.
During one of his live streams, walking through the streets with his camera on, Speed got surrounded by what seemed to be the members of some criminal organization that ended up terrifying him before Arab came out to reveal that it was all a part of the elaborate prank.
Following the prank, Arab revealed that he wanted it to be more genuine by involving guns but given that the stream would go live on YouTube, it wouldn’t align with their policies and would be taken down.
“Because it was a YouTube and not a Kick stream, they would have allowed that, we told them to do it with no weapons, just baseball bats and stuff,” he said.
“As for the gang members, I believe it’s a sign that when you come in and show respect and you approve these people can be humane, a lot of the time their fights are with each other,” he explained. “Don’t get me wrong, these guys can do bad things, it’s part of being somewhere lawless, but people need to stop being afraid of these places.”
The prank was too elaborate and scared the living hell out of Speed. The involvement of guns would have taken it too far but as things stand, the prank was super convincing and no one could have guessed that Speed was being played until Arab revealed himself.
