IRL streams in public places can often create a number of physical and figurative barriers for content creators.

Yesterday, IRL streamer Arab ran into one of those obscure stumbling blocks that one would only come across in the wild when a child was crying near him in a park and didn’t seem to stop.

Arab and his friend were trying to relax on a park bench while watching a Twitch stream live when a crying child rounded the corner and walked right in front of him. He approached the situation with humour and a smile, telling the child that they were streaming. After that, the child came to a halt and stared at him.

Arab continued to bargain with the adorable stream terrorizing menace, demanding that he promise to stop crying before handing him the money. Arab eventually compromised with a high-five after initially telling the child that he needed to pinky promise he’d stop crying.

Arab concluded the encounter by telling the boy to be a good boy to his mother as he handed him the money, laughing hysterically as the boy calmed down and walked away with the cash.

While the exchange appears to have been staged, it doesn’t take away from the situation’s comedy, which had viewers laughing.
