IShowSpeed has always been a relatively controversial figure and has been at the center of high profile sagas several times, including being accused of misogyny and racism, to name a few. Now, Speed is facing another one, but this time the controversy revolves around him accidentally flashing his privates to his audience.

The accident in question happened during one of his most recent streams after coming back from his medical break. As the YouTuber was playing Five Nights at Freddy’s, he was surprised by Chica, an animatronic resembling a chicken with female features. The streamer stood up, stunned, and then suddenly started to thrust at the camera while saying how much he missed Chica.

While doing so, his privates slipped out of a gap in his trousers, accidentally revealing them to his YouTube audience.

After a few seconds, he noticed, appeared shocked, and promptly ended the stream. There are no VODs still accessible—he appears to have deleted them—but the clip has gone viral on Twitter with “IShowSpeed” and “IShowMeat” both trending, as of writing.

As of now, Speed still hasn’t released a statement talking about the incident, and nor has YouTube, the platform where Speed streamed. We have reached out to both parties for comments regarding the situation but still haven’t received a reply. YouTube’s guidelines are relatively strict when it comes to nudity and sexual content, with creators and their channels facing termination if they were found repeatedly breaking the guidelines.

Update Aug. 17, 10:32pm CT: YouTube has told TMZ that they will not be banning Speed for his on-stream mishap. According to a report, YouTube agreed the video had violated their policies, however, they have chosen not to take action for the mistake.
