IRL streamer almost runs child over with scooter Knut, Twitch \/ FreepikThanks to the advent of IRL streaming, just about anyone can broadcast their daily lives for all to see \u2013 but sometimes, these broadcasts can capture shocking, hilarious, and unexpected moments as they unfold in real time. Norwegian Twitch streamer and bodybuilder \u201cKnut\u201d captured one such unexpected moment during a September 14 broadcast, while streaming his travels about the town on a motorized scooter. Knut is a popular streamer on the platform, boasting over 85k followers at the time of writing, known both for his humorous IRL antics and video game fails \u2013 but it wasn\u2019t a video game that had viewers on the edges of their seats this time. Norwegian Twitch streamer and bodybuilder \u201cKnut\u201d avoided a close call with a pedestrian. The streamer was blazing through what seemed to be a shopping district on his scooter, weaving through a crowd of people with another broadcaster when a small child suddenly crossed his path. In a nail-biting moment, Knut brought his scooter to a screeching halt, laughing in shock that he\u2019d almost taken out the little girl before continuing his travels. \u201cHoly f*ck,\u201d Knut exclaimed through laughter. \u201cThat thing coming for the kid? Ahh\u2026\u201d The gravity of the situation did not escape Knut, who later commented that things could have gone South very quickly had he actually hit the youngster, predicting a viral post on sites like Live stream fails. \u201cImagine crashing with a child that size on stream,\u201d he surmised. \u201cOh no, that would be bad. Live stream fails. I clipped it.\u201d Although Knut was merely using a scooter, Twitch has cracked down on streaming and driving in the past, with streamers like duo \u201cBriandKatie\u201d getting banned from the site for broadcasting themselves driving with one knee and using both hands to eat a pint of ice cream. That\u2019s not all: another streamer was similarly suspended from the platform after nearly running over pedestrians on two separate occasions, all within a short span of thirty seconds. However, it looks like scooter-ing and streaming is a relatively grey area for the site, for now \u2013 and thanks to Knut\u2019s quick reflexes, an unfortunate accident was narrowly avoided.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
