The rapper is believed to be in intensive care after then falling from a third-floor balcony on January 31. The Uruguayan influencer hasn’t been immune to scandals, so this is no surprise to him, according to news reports.
YouTuber Yao Cabrera was filming a video and faking his death earlier this year when the incident occurred. At the time, he was living in Villa Carlos Paz outside the city of Cordoba. A video of him was being filmed from the balcony. On Tuesday, February 1, Juan Etchegoyen of Argentine newspaper, La Nacion, first reported the news, claiming his father had confirmed it. The influencer didn’t seem to know what he was filming and how he fell. In 2016, another YouTuber sneezed on a homeless man in a prank amid the surge of Covid-19.
