During a trip to Brazil, Speed was live-streaming while walking through districts when he was suddenly confronted by gang members holding weapons who grabbed onto the YouTuber scaring the daylights out of him. However, the ordeal was just a prank by Arab who began dancing and chanting with the gang shortly thereafter. Arab reveals he wanted to prank IShowSpeed with guns Arab, who frequents dangerous places as part of his YouTube content revealed to Dexerto how he planned out this nefarious prank. It turns out the prankster had an even crazier plan in mind if Speed was on Kick instead of YouTube. According to the YouTuber, he originally wanted to prank Speed with guns and more lethal weapons, but didn\u2019t want to get in trouble with the platform. \u201cBecause it was a YouTube and not a Kick stream, they would have allowed that, we told them to do it with no weapons, just baseball bats and stuff,\u201d he said. While Speed hasn\u2019t forgiven Arab yet, the YouTuber believes that he\u2019ll accept it because of the views it\u2019ll help generate. \u201cI knew it would go viral,\u201d he added. \u201cAs for the gang members, I believe it\u2019s a sign that when you come in and show respect and you approve these people can be humane, a lot of the time their fights are with each other,\u201d he explained. \u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong, these guys can do bad things, it\u2019s part of being somewhere lawless, but people need to stop being afraid of these places.\u201d Arab\u2019s content is some of the wildest on YouTube with the creator frequenting some of the Earth\u2019s scariest locations. In his most recent series, he was living with the Mexican cartel and even interviewed a hitman.
