On August 2nd, 2022 during a Twitch stream, in which Ox was hosting a streaming session with Daniel while he was staying in a hotel, intended to prank Daniel and had made a $100 donation goal, the goal was to "Swap the video with a fake nuke warning" in which Ox would replace the video he was showing Daniel over Discord with a fake EAS alert[1], which portrayed a nuclear attack against American locations. The donation goal was reached and so Ox initiated the prank against Daniel.
Initial Reaction
As soon as Daniel saw the EAS alert appear he appeared confused, after hearing the words "Nuclear Attack" he became visibly distressed and started panicking, he began writing down notes on a piece of paper and pacing backwords and forwards before eventually leaving from the stream to go warn others at the front desk and lobby of the hotel, Daniel doing this of course because he believed there really was an attack.
After alerting the hotel staff, he returned to the stream only to return to be shown by Ox that it was simply a YouTube video, this would later down the to announce online that Ox had been fired, Ox wasn't fired officially till the following day on the 3rd of August. Daniel alleged the real reason for firing Ox was because he had received a "restraining order" from the "VanderWaal family"
Daniel had already been stressed over US and China relations at the time, which was why Daniel freaked out after being told it was a prank, also leading to him breaking a TV in the hotel after the prank[2], and has been fearful of the CCP Since, especially during the UCLA Arc where this fear was manipulated with again.
