US streamer sets off Pikachu firework resulting in firefighters entering his room during 'live' stream (VIDEO)

KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 — A July 4 celebration Twitch stream was set ablaze, literally, when an American streamer set off fireworks in his own room.

Popular Twitch streamer Darren Watkins Jr. or ‘iShowSpeed’ lit a Pikachu firework from a large box of pyrotechnics he bought for the occasion.

Thinking it was a small firecracker, Watkins lit the small toy before large sparks erupted from its many holes.

As sparks flew and pops were fired off, Watkins panicked and called his mother for help as the Pikachu fireworks flew in his direction.

Eventually, the fireworks settled and the fire department was called, entering the stream that was still recording in real-time.

The United States celebrated it independence day on July 4.

Since being uploaded on July 5 the clip has gone viral on social media, garnering many shocked and humorous reactions.

Not to mention a slew of re-edited memes.

The online users have also wished well for the streamer, warning others not to set off fireworks in the home.

In a follow-up stream, Speed reassured his followers that the damage to his room was minor, with some scuffs on the ceiling and the floor.

“If you looked at the box, it actually shows what it (the fireworks) does, and I did not know that,” Watkins said.

“I wish I would have actually looked at it...it should have had a bigger label.”
