A Madden Twitch streamer has wiped out all of his social media accounts after a disturbing clip, showing him screaming in a child’s face, went viral online.
On January 21, the comic strip – which has since been identified as ‘buckkerz’ – appeared online and quickly spread on the internet.
The 28-second short clip begins with the streamer Madden plays while a child sits on his lap. Within moments, he is seen slamming his controller on his desk and screaming.
“Goddamn it!” he shouts, apparently upsetting the child. “Three hundred dollars fucking controller!”

At this point, the child begins to cry, causing buckkerz to put him down. “Can fucking breaks break too ?!” he asks, referring to his faulty controller.
“Just sit here,” he told the child. “I have to go. I’m gonna fucking lose it.”
It is unclear who he spoke to on the other side, but shortly thereafter, the video takes the worst turn because the young boy is crying out loud.
The streamer changed its video titles to ‘imsorry’.
The track ends with Buckkerz turning and yelling, ‘Hold the fuck,’ right in the kid’s face.
After the video started spreading, screengrabs appeared online in which buckkerz renamed his Twitch videos to ‘imsorry1234556’.
According to the screenshots of the Twitch account that have now been removed, the streamer is a ‘father and husband’, but it is unclear whether the child in the video is his own.
Some claim that this is the person who saw the baby screaming in the video. He apparently disabled all social media. pic.twitter.com/cPasqRCmwG

Aside from the removal of Twitch, the user also appears to have cleared his Twitter and Facebook accounts.
It will be interesting to see how Twitch handles the clip, and whether they apply a ban to the account, even though it has already been removed.
Users also attributed the Twitter account ‘KBoomhauer’ for paying attention to the track. It was originally posted with the caption “Zoomer parenting” and has since been reloaded on many other sites.
In any case, parents or streamers with young children need to know better than to literally shout in their faces about a video game controller.
