00:00In Real Life streamer Modine was confronted by UK police after setting off fireworks during a short
00:05meetup with Kyle from the Nelk Boys right outside Buckingham Palace. Now the moment is sparking
00:10backlash with some online calling it a mild response considering what happened. The incident
00:16unfolded during what appeared to be an impromptu link-up between Modine, whose real name is
00:20Mohamed Kuba, and Kyle Forgerd, the co-founder of the massively popular YouTube group the Nelk Boys.
00:26What started as a fairly casual collaboration between the two quickly escalated when the
00:31British IRL streamer pulled out what appeared to be fireworks and tossed them onto the sidewalk
00:36which landed into a crowd of tourists and passerbyers. The stunt drew near instant attention from nearby
00:41police who quickly approached Modine, but despite what could easily be perceived as a public safety
00:47issue right in front of a major royal landmark, Modine wasn't fined or detained, just spoken to.
00:52Forgerd, who seemed visibly uncomfortable from the moment the fireworks were lit, made it clear he
00:57was not okay with the stunt by repeating, quote, no more fireworks, as Modine walked back over to
01:03the group unfazed and asked if the two streamers were going to meet up again soon, leaving one Reddit
01:08user to state, honestly, a very mild reaction from the palace police. This isn't Modine's first time
01:15steering up controversy. The 40-year-old streamer has built a reputation on Kik for his unpredictable,
01:21often chaotic streams. Meanwhile, Kyle Forgerd and the Nelk boys are no stranger to controversy
01:26either. Forgerd was arrested in 2021 for impersonating a mall security officer at
01:31Grapevine Mills Mall in Texas, according to TMZ. And in 2024, the tab reports the Elk boys faced
01:38backlash after leaving an uncontacted indigenous tribe with vapes, alcohol, and cigarettes. But the
01:44incident in front of the palace even crossed the line with Forgerd and his team, as they quickly
01:48moved to get Kyle back on the bus, was someone off-camera even heard saying, quote, I don't
01:53want to get you arrested. But what's your take? Share your thoughts below and follow us everywhere
