FPSRussia, who retired from YouTube in 2016 and recently spent two months in prison due to possession of a restricted substance, had been one of the platform\u2019s most popular names with nearly 7 million subscribers. His videos included a mix of weapons and explosive testing, with the celebrity showing off his wild collection to the tune of millions of views. In a clip uploaded on May 30, Myers explained how a mole that had been removed from his eye in surgery was actually cancerous, despite his doctor first informing him it wasn\u2019t. \u201cI got that thing taken off my eye last week\u2026 and the doctor assured me that because there were eyelashes growing through it, that\u2019s a sign it\u2019s not cancer. Well, they call me Friday and they go \u2018so it\u2019s cancer,\u2019\u201d the 34-year-old stated. Myers then did an impression of Lumbergh from \u2018Office Space\u2019 to showcase how the doctor spoke to him in a very slow tone. \u201cYeah, we\u2019re gonna need to go back into your eye,\u201d the YouTuber said, imitating his doctor. \u201cIn any case, got a little bit of the cancer. They don\u2019t think it spread anywhere else, but we\u2019re going to do some scans or blood tests or what have you and find out for sure,\u201d he continued. Luckily, Myers\u2019 doctor is a plastic surgeon, so he will be taking a wedge of the YouTuber\u2019s eyelid to \u201cbring it all together,\u201d with very minimal scarring. Despite the diagnosis, the YouTuber was still full of laughs and joked that if there was a bit of scarring, he\u2019d ask the doctor for a \u201cKhal Drogo\u201d \u2013 a reference to the Game of Thrones character played by Jason Momoa, who has a scar on his face. He went on to add that he ordered a \u201creally f**king cool eyepatch\u201d that resembles something out of a movie or video game, so he seems to be taking the whole thing in good spirits. Hopefully, the surgery ends up going well and we see much more from FPSRussia and his new eyepatch in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Retired YouTube star FPSRussia reveals cancer diagnosis YouTube\/FPSRussiaFamous YouTuber Kyle \u2018FPSRussia\u2019 Myers revealed that he has been diagnosed with cancer during an episode of the PKA Podcast.
