The popular streaming star, IShowSpeed, is currently touring Southeast Asia after the tremendous success of his recent European tour.

IShowSpeed faced a tough challenge from a Muay Thai professional during a live stream in Thailand.

He broke his viewership record just two days into the trip; however, fans are worried about his safety amid some risky antics during his travels.

For example, Speed encountered several close calls with large animals. He “almost died” from nearly falling off an elephant and soon after, he decided to bark loudly at a tiger.

While petting the big cat, it growled at its handler, showing signs of distress—prompting Speed to start barking. A friend off-screen cautioned him to “turn it down,” fearing the animal might react aggressively if he persisted.

Nonetheless, he continued barking at the tiger, prompting one fan to tweet: “Wtf is wrong with Speed, bro risking his life for content.”

Another user remarked, “Bro is playing with fire.”

One more commenter stated, “Either he’s the bravest or the stupidest.”

His dangerous stunts didn’t stop there; during his second stream in Thailand, he spent time at a beach with a fire poi performer, who spun flaming weapons near Speed’s exposed skin as part of a dare, almost igniting his crotch. Although he managed to extinguish the flames, fans expressed concern for his safety amidst his antics for entertainment.

“This shouldn’t be tried at home,” one user advised.

“Anything for views these days,” another commented.

“This guy will never die,” a user joked.

Despite fan concerns, Speed’s Southeast Asia tour continues to thrive, with more countries on his itinerary. His outrageous antics are not limited to international travels; just days prior, he nearly set himself on fire while playing with an expensive robot dog fitted with a flamethrower.
