Streamer has an unfortunate mishap while live streaming

IRL Streaming Fail: German Streamer Walks into a Pole While Live

IRL streaming remains popular among streamers who want to take their audience on outdoor adventures. While setups can vary, one essential piece of equipment is a phone.

Streamers use phones for streaming and as an extra monitor to read chat. Whether streaming on the go or exploring new places, a phone comes in handy. However, it can also be the cause of incidents like this streamer walking straight into a pole.

Vleafnin, a German variety streamer, has been exploring IRL streaming recently. She walks around German cities, engaging with her viewers and taking them along for the journey. However, sometimes, obstacles like street signs get in the way. Just like in video games, it’s important to avoid obstacles that can cause harm, right?

What makes this fail even funnier (but more embarrassing for vleafnin) is that she has multiple camera angles in her streaming setup. The stream captures both a direct view of her and the ground in front of her. This means that Twitch chat had a front row seat as she slowly walked straight into the pole, with the viewers witnessing the incident unfolding.

Let this be a lesson for all aspiring and experienced IRL streamers. While phones are great for streaming, they can also be distracting when you’re on the move. Try not to get too absorbed in chat and always watch out for cars, people, and stationary objects like metal poles.
