Who is Norme? Kick streamer goes viral after setting his room on fire during livestream

Kick streamer Norme is once again in the spotlight, but this time, for all the wrong reasons. Known for pushing limits with outrageous stunts, the viral internet personality accidentally set his room ablaze live on stream after pouring Coca-Cola on his overheating laptop, which was a dare from his chat that quickly turned into a fiery disaster. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Stream That Went Up in Flames On June 22, Norme was mid-broadcast playing Roblox when he complained about his gaming laptop overheating. That's when viewers, jokingly or not, dared him to pour Coca-Cola over it to cool it down. In true Norme fashion, he went through with it. Almost instantly, the laptop began to spark and smoke. 'It's making a bunch of weird noises. Did y'all lie to me?' he asked, clearly alarmed as the situation escalated. From Overheating to Fire Hazard Things took a dangerous turn when flames broke out. Norme picked up the burning laptop to show his viewers the damage, then — in a panic — tried smothering it by flipping it onto his bed. Big mistake. His bed caught fire, and what followed was a frantic attempt to douse the blaze using the rest of his soda. When that didn't work, he grabbed a fire extinguisher — but by then, it was already too late. The fire had spread. Moments later, the livestream abruptly ended. Kick Responds With a Ban Shortly after the incident, Norme was banned from Kick. Furious, he took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration. 'NO WAY I GOT BANNED AGAIN. BRO WHAT THE F ??????? I NEARLY DIED WAHT IS YOUR GODAM PROBLEM KICKKK' At the time of writing, the length of the ban remains unclear. However, this isn't Norme's first brush with platform rules — and definitely not his first viral stunt. This Streamer Stayed Up For 11 Days Is Why That's Bad Norme's History of Risky Streams Fans may remember Norme's 2024 viral stunt, where he unofficially broke the world record for going the longest time without sleep: a mind-bending 11 days straight. That marathon stream got him suspended from multiple platforms due to health risks and guideline violations. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now He eventually finished it on Rumble, pulling in over 9,000 live viewers. Though he was later medically evaluated, experts believed he wouldn't suffer any long-term damage. Still, it marked him as one of the most unpredictable faces in live streaming. What's Next for Norme? Norme has built his brand around shock value, high-risk stunts, and unpredictable content. But with repeated bans and increasingly dangerous behavior, questions are swirling about how far he's willing to go — and whether platforms will continue to tolerate it. For now, one thing's clear: Norme's fire fiasco has sparked more than just flames — it's reignited the debate around streamer responsibility and platform moderation in the age of viral content.
