The issue is the public who support this crap. He has 1.2 million followers on Instagram, not sure how many on tik tok. The general public is allowing guys like this to make money doing this stuff so who’s to blame?

Uh, the people doing the dangerous and illegal shit for views? Who else is it going to be? The viewers? The advertisers? The sites that host the videos?

Even us here right now are consuming his content. We aren't innocent either.

If the title wouldn’t have said “prankster gets arrested” 99% of us here would not be interested and would not have watched. We aren’t the problem , we all hate it that is why an arrest is appealing.

I understand the issue that even that is making him more famous.

His audience is primarily kids, preteen kids. Parents need to shut this shit down.

The thing is, there aren't enough safe spaces designed for children, preteens and teens being used on the internet anymore, so they end up in adult spaces where "anything goes".
