Velcuz, a Finland-based Twitch streamer, had a shocking start to his London stream when he saw a man badly injured just minutes after going live. The incident happened during an IRL broadcast in central London, where around 1,100 people were already watching. What began as an excited stream quickly turned tense, as Velcuz walked into what looked like the aftermath of a stabbing.
He had started streaming from Berners Street in Mayfair and looked happy to be back live. “Bro, I’m so excited, I’m so excited! I swear to god,” he said at the start. But within five minutes, everything changed. As he walked toward Soho, he noticed a group of police officers wearing yellow jackets gathered near a street corner. Right there, he saw a man covered in blood.
