How did Twitch streamer Zummmers break her ankle at TwitchCon 2022 San Diego?
On October 8, TwitchCon 2022 San Diego hosted an IRL Twitch Rivals event called the Balloon World Cup. At the event, several content creators clashed with one another in a balloon chasing competition.
During a two-minute round between Twitch streamers Zummmers and GuhRL, the former tried her best to keep the balloon from falling to the ground. However, she accidentally ended up hitting one of the obstacles (a sofa in this case) and instantly fell down.
Zummmers called the referee, and it was observed that the streamer had hurt her right ankle. Upon closer inspection, Zummmers' ankle was significantly injured, and she was visibly in pain. The competitive balloon chase round soon ended.
The aforementioned VOD (video on demand) has since been deleted on Twitch.
