IShowSpeed Should Change His Name To IShowMeat After Accidentally Exposing Himself

The popular livestreamer IShowSpeed may be banned after his latest mishap. He accidentally flashed his audience while playing Five Nights at Freddy's, resulting in the fitting "IShowMeat" trending on Twitter.

Darren Watkins Jr., aka IShowSpeed, may have messed up more than ever before. The popular streamer is best known for his energetic and loud personality, gathering over 19 million subscribers on YouTube. His commitment even goes so far as to stream from the hospital bed for that anniversary.

Those 19 million subscribers won't save him from his latest mishap though. Good thing he returned to streaming after his long stay in the hospital – bad thing that he exposed himself live on stream in front of over 24,000 viewers.

IShowSpeed Exposes Himself On Stream

In his second stream after returning to normalcy after his scary health issues, Speed messed it all up yet again.

While playing the horror game Five Nights at Freddy's he got jump scared – a pretty common occurrence in FNAF. In fact, he got jump scared so bad that he actually jumped. The scariest part came after, though, not only for him, but also for his viewers.

When Speed jumped up to get some nervous energy out of his system after the game managed to get the better of him, he apparently forgot how loose his pants were. While hopping up and down, he accidentally exposed himself live in front of over 20,000 viewers.

Not reacting quick enough, his audience got a pretty long glance at Speed's genitals before he finally covered himself up, obviously shocked himself.

IShowSpeed Won't Lose His YouTube Channel

The whole situation is way more than an embarrassing moment in hundreds of hours of streaming history, it could have very well been the end of Speed's YouTube channel, just after reaching the 19 million subscribers.

There are enough websites out there where you can show what you've got in your pants all day long, but YouTube isn't one of them. YouTube states in its policies that any kind of "depiction of clothed or unclothed genitals" are strictly prohibited.

Even though it was obviously an accident, what happened is still very clearly against YouTube's guidelines. The platform doesn't want to make an embarrassed man an unemployed man on top of his mishap, though. According to TMZ, Speed is allowed to continue streaming after removing the NSFW video.

And no, I won't link to the clip. Thank me later. Go watch this instead:
