Yousef “Fousey,” the controversial Kick streamer and former YouTube personality, faced another alarming incident during a livestream on December 1, 2024, when he was swatted live. At the 3-hour-51-minute mark of his Just Chatting and IRL stream, Fousey became aware of a police vehicle outside his location. Caught off guard, the streamer expressed his disbelief as officers instructed him to step outside:

“That’s the fking police, man! Guys, tell my girl… fk! I’m coming out! I’m coming out!” Fousey said as he followed the officers’ instructions.
Fousey’s friend, visibly upset by the incident, chastised the online community, saying:
“This is fking ridiculous! Y’all are the fking worst! Like, do you all want to see him there? Like, why would you all call the police?”

Later that day, a short 25-second clip of Fousey surfaced on X (formerly Twitter), where he addressed his viewers while handcuffed. Despite the tense situation, Fousey remained defiant, proclaiming:
“Yo, what’s up? I’m handcuffed right now, but you can’t stop G7. God has a bigger plan for us. Hi officer, I’m not a criminal. But I am a rapper! Album (is) on the way. 1/22, my birthday, and you know who’s on it. Most viral man on the internet. Show me proof I’m not. Love you!”
Swatting incidents have plagued Fousey multiple times this year. On July 10, 2024, he was similarly targeted while livestreaming from a parking lot. During that encounter, he reassured officers of his compliance and explained the situation to viewers:
“I am not reaching for anything sir, I am livestreaming right now, I am on camera. I am not reaching for anything, I have a dog on my lap. I have a dog on my lap, a teacup Maltese. This is a prank call, I am livestreaming.”

The repeated swatting incidents have raised concerns about the safety of streamers, with critics calling for stricter measures against such dangerous pranks.
Fousey, who has been no stranger to viral moments, also made headlines on November 21, 2024, when Tesla temporarily suspended his car’s Autosteer and Full Self-Driving capabilities for a week. Despite these challenges, Fousey continues to maintain an active presence online, remaining both a controversial and resilient figure in the streaming world.
