Kai Cenat's fiery stunt: Streamer sparks safety concerns online

Every day, online creators push safety boundaries to increase their outreach. Entering bear territory to meet them face-to-face is one of many examples of risky activities on social media. Previous stunts have included explosions, visits to abandoned places, and fires. All so that viewers can experience something completely new, which evokes a thrill of unease and subconsciously compels them to keep watching.

Kai Cenat is one of the most popular streamers in the world. Nearly 11 million people follow the American's profile on Instagram. Cenat is known for explosions and fires that take place in his home. A yearly tradition introduced by the influencer is lighting fireworks indoors to celebrate American Independence Day. The streamer has already teamed up with MrBeast, with whom he filled a room with hundreds of fireworks that were then set off. The streamer has also collaborated with IShowSpeed. Many people wonder how Kai Cenat's house is still standing, considering all the pyrotechnic stunts that have taken place within its walls.

This time, Cenat decided to make his stream more exciting. During the broadcast, which took place on 17th September 2024 at 18:00 GMT, the influencer grabbed a flamethrower, which he then ignited. The device resembled a plastic Nerf gun, but its power was far from a toy's. In a few seconds, Kai Cenat's room filled with flames, which miraculously did not spread to the furniture or carpets on the floor. After a moment, Kai Cenat turned to the camera with a smile. The streamer said to the viewers: “Oh my God! Did you see my face?” He then continued the stream as if nothing had happened.
