Ishowspeed falls for CZN Burak's prank in Turkey

IShowSpeed was pranked by a Turkish waiter during his Europe tour, sparking mixed reactions from fans online.

IShowSpeed has become the centre of online discussion after being pranked by a Turkish waiter during his European tour.

The streamer, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr., was visiting Turkey when he experienced the popular local “spilling prank” often performed on tourists.

The prank involves a server pretending to spill hot tea or food on a customer, causing panic, only for the customer to realise that the bowls and cups are either empty or attached to the tray.

During his visit, IShowSpeed was approached by a waiter holding two steaming kettles. The server then pretended to drop one of the kettles on Speed, prompting him to jump out of his seat in alarm.

Realising the kettles were empty, Speed appeared frustrated and shouted at the waiter to “stop f*cking playing” while others at the scene laughed, including the server and surrounding customers. The moment was captured on video and quickly circulated across social media platforms.

Reactions to the incident were mixed. Some viewers criticised Speed’s reaction, labelling it as exaggerated, with one user stating, “It’s sad how people like Speed make themselves like clowns for a few clicks.” Others focused on his quick reflexes, commenting, “Now I know why he’s called Speed,” and “That is totally cool to see iSpeed’s speed.”

The prank took place during IShowSpeed’s Europe Tour Part 2, which began on July 7 and will include stops in several countries such as Bosnia, Estonia, Poland, and Turkey.

The tour also marks Speed’s return to Twitch after years away from the platform, with live broadcasts available on both Twitch and YouTube for viewers to follow his travels.
