NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Kai Cenat became the talk of the town as soon as the second episode of 'The Kai 'N Speed Show' dropped on Rumble on June 28, which the streamer hosts with close friend IShowSpeed. Cenat's prowess as a streamer and influencer has garnered him immense recognition in recent years, bringing him the prestigious Streaming of the Year Award in 2022, and he currently boasts an impressive following of over 5 million on Twitch.
While Cenat's success can largely be attributed to his captivating charm, comedic talent, and magnetic personality, it is worth noting that a significant part of his fame stems from the eccentric and occasionally juvenile behavior that he portrays on live streams. It's safe to say that he has a penchant for pushing boundaries and engaging in mischievous acts. Keep reading to learn about Cenat's top five exhilarating stunts, which brought him to the brink of disaster.
1. Lighting firecrackers indoors to celebrate Independence Day
As a part of their Fourth of July celebrations, Cenat and his companions embarked on a thrilling yet dangerous fireworks battle right within the confines of their own home. The AMP house quickly transformed into a chaotic scene as Cenat and his friends engaged in a fiery exchange, utilizing Roman candles as their chosen weapons. Their house was left in a state of disarray, with rooms filled with smoke and various objects scattered across the floors.
Moreover, the dense smoke left by the crackers triggered the fire alarms, prompting some members of the group to grab fire extinguishers as a precautionary measure. Armed with improvised trash can lids as shields and donning gas masks to cope with the smoke, the group embraced a spirited camaraderie to avoid any problems that might come their way. The group was seen venturing into playful wrestling matches, adding an element of bonding to the festivities. While Cenat did engage in some quarrels with fellow housemates, he enjoyed the overall experience. Remarkably, no injuries or significant mishaps occurred except for Cenat's monitor getting busted.
2. Playing with a flamethrower indoors
During a live stream at the AMP house, Cenat captured the attention of viewers as he wielded a flamethrower. After looking up how to use it on the Internet, he adeptly operated the flamethrower, attentively adjusting its buttons. However, an unexpected twist occurred during the process when smoke started to come out from the flamethrower, followed by a gradual release of fire, causing Cenat to react with visible fear and unleash a string of expletives.
After successfully turning off the blaze, Cenat decided to playfully engage his audience by firing the flamethrower once again. With a light-hearted spirit, he even danced with the flamethrower on the live stream. Moreover, fellow streamer and AMP housemate, Fanum unexpectedly entered the room in the middle of Cenat's antics only to let out a scream seeing him holding the flamethrower, adding an element of surprise to the moment. While some damage resulted from the flames, everyone seemed to have been safe at the end of the stream.
3. Trying indoor dirt biking in AMP house
Cenat was seen bursting with excitement as he brought a dirt bike into his streaming room on April 15. After instructing his entourage to clear any obstructions in the camera's view and a quick tutorial, Cenat revved the engine and cautiously moved toward the camera. However, what initially seemed like an innocent attempt to enthrall his audience quickly took an unexpected turn. In a comical turn of events, a panicked Cenat lost control of the dirt bike and collided with his streaming setup, resulting in the camera feed abruptly cutting out while a startled Cenat narrated the chaotic scene that unfolded during the accident.
4. Showering on a live stream
During Cenat's remarkable feat of the uninterrupted 30-day "subathon" on Twitch, he made the decision to take a shower during the debut live stream. While the streamer did not expose himself during the attention-grabbing stunt, it should be noted that Twitch deems implied nudity as a violation of its terms of service. Although Cenat managed to avoid any bans or penalties from the platform, his shock-and-awe strategy undeniably succeeded in leaving his fans astonished and entertained. As a result, he attracted millions of viewers on the inaugural day of his "subathon," establishing a sensational start to the event.
5. Exploding fireworks in a Pumpkin
The next notable entry on this list of Cenat's most infamous stunts has to be the one that catapulted him to the forefront of the r/LiveStreamFails subreddit. During a November 2022 live stream, the streamer had the idea of igniting fireworks inside his room. After encountering several unsuccessful tries, Cenat devised a new approach by placing an improvised firecracker inside a pumpkin to ensure the firecracker would ignite before any external force dampened the flame. Only after a few moments, the pumpkin was engulfed in a blaze, resulting in a powerful explosion, which left a hole in the table and displaced the primary camera from its original position.
