“I broke my f*cking leg!”: Twitch streamer TheDannyHammer dislocated his leg while streaming Warzone
Multiplayer video games are known to induce a lot of frustration in players when things don't go their way. Breaking controllers, mouse, or keyboards are commonplace for players prone to rage. Losing one's cool while streaming is doubly frustrating, considering the player is on full display to the wider world.
While some smash things, yell, or even rage-quit, TheDannyHammer's predicament fell into a unique category: getting physically hurt while playing Warzone.
As a battle royale experience, it can be pretty annoying when fellow teammates do not follow sound game plans, and that is precisely how the streamer started raging. As one of the last two teams left in the game, the decision to rush a team that was one man down is quite a sound strategy and is exactly what he was asking his friend to do:
"No, push in while they are fighting."
TheDannyHammer rushed in before being gunned down by the sole opponent standing between them and victory. But alas, his friend didn't follow him, and the streamer jumped up from his chair to react vehemently against his teammate:
"Oh get him Steve, he is the last one! Live ping , kill him Steve... No! Why didn't you push with me, it was a two on one!"
This was when the mishap took place as the streamer sank to the ground in pain, shouting:
"I broke my f*cking leg! Oh my god, it's f*cking broken. Ah sh*t, oh f*ck..."
Twitter reactions
As the old clip went viral, numerous jocular comments filled the replies:
After Jake Lucky revealed that the streamer was in the military, TheDannyHammer revealed some more details from his experience post-dislocation, including the reaction of his commanding officers:
"The CO showed his kids and told them they weren’t allowed to play COD anymore."
Thankfully, TheDannyHammer appears to have fully recovered and continues streaming on Twitch.
