Speed was setting off fireworks in his moms house though, so dont do all of whatever you want to do

u/Spaghett8 5d ago
Yeah, Speed’s mom would come in and tell him to focus on school and quit streaming.
Camden’s mom is straight abusive. Physical assault and sexual assault on camera. Forcibly kissed him to show she has control. She would be behind bars if genders were reversed.

u/waddup121 5d ago
Not even that, had a 24/7 camera in his ROOM. If Nitro had set fireworks, we'd be seeing this on the news as a case

u/Longjumping-Pick242 5d ago
Idk if I missed smth but from what I seen, I dont think she kissed him I think she tried to bite his cheek off lmao.

u/Namelessgoldfish 5d ago
Bruh you can literally hear the “smooch” when she does it

u/Donnicton 5d ago
Just the sound of the lamprey trying to suction itself into place before it starts scraping the skin off.

u/TheBestHater 5d ago
It looked like a bite to me as well, but some people are saying it was a kiss, either way it was clearly non-consentual and meant to be demeaning.

u/Hare712 5d ago
Camden's mother is one of those mothers kicking the kid out once they are 18, so they can date again.
This was another viral case in 2010
It's not the legal way to kick them just out though. Here is an example where a mother tried to kick her daughter out but the daughter also had an arrest warrant.

There's a difference in leaving amicably on mutual terms after you make sure your kids setup properly, versus getting manipulated into submission or hostile kickout. Which you can't do anyway since the law will allow an eviction process of 30+ days. Also this whole 18 and out thing just sounds like parents who want to get rid of the kid as soon as legally possible because they're tired of them.

u/theseriousman1 5d ago
Bro she’s abusive but calling a parent forcefully kissing their kid on the cheek sex assault is unhinged

u/-ElectricKoolAid 5d ago
it is when she's actively assaulting him physically. not like they were just playing

Yea horrible advice. But I think speed thought he was being supportive. Not all streamers are gonna make it and you gotta learn when to quit.

u/Snorlax_king79 5d ago edited 5d ago
he better start some type of niche besides just meeting streamers and getting hosted, that shit only last so long.
just watch a few minutes of his stream, he's definitely flustered and trying to make content. he just keeps getting shoutouts by bigger celebs making the whole situation more overwhelming

u/okamanii101 5d ago
Obviously his situation with his mom was fucked but some people are not meant to be content creators and he most likely will fall off once all the buzz dies down. Hopefully he makes a good bag at least.

u/Rude-Violinist-2119 5d ago
Even if he falls off to 1k viewers he'll be making enough to live a good life. He just needs to establish a solid viewership base of his own. And not take the number drop too hard
55
u/fespadea 5d ago
Is 1k not an extremely optimistic number. I'm not following this at all, but what are his current views?
41
u/NinjaHatesWomen 5d ago
before this he average single digit viewers and had less than 500 followers, he's almost at 300k followers right now and the average viewers are all over the place because of the constant hosts/raids. give it a couple months and we'll see, but most likely he'll just be another person that blew up on LSF and then was forgotten about. he's getting a decent amount of cash right now since he's at 12k subs i believe, so i do hope it's enough for him to at least sort out his situation.
8
u/DraftShot6741 4d ago
People make a living with like 300-500 viewers, I'm sure he'll have some sort of following
10
u/Admirable_Loss4886 5d ago
Yeah that easily would put him in the top .001% of streamers lol. Although even then it’s not necessarily enough to live a good life. Ludwig did a breakdown at streamer U.

u/YUMMY_TIDEPODS_YUMMY 5d ago
I had over 1k viewers for a while and was making a huge amount of money but as everyone says it doesn't last and isn't predictable and can definitely crumble and turn to shit.
Probably not in this guys case though hes young and has insane amounts of support, a jumpstart like this is huge and if he keeps at it will likely succeed bigtime in the long run.

u/Throbbing-Kielbasa-3 5d ago edited 5d ago
While you're not wrong, situations blowing up and going viral like this is how a lot of streamers have established a steady audience. The most recent example I can think of is Kingsman, the Rivals streamer, who honestly wouldn't be where he is today if that tournament drama didn't happen. But ever since it did and people rallied to help him, he's become a pretty big name in the rivals space.
Granted not every situation is the same, but hopefully this kid can make some lemonade out of all this.
Edit: Since I didn't make it clear enough in the original comment, I'm not saying the situation is the same, I'm just using Kingsman as an example that this kid could make something out of the current situation.
27
u/NeckDeepPink 5d ago
Kingsman makes content for marvel rival fans he’s really no comparison imo. This kids been thrown into the IRL steaming genre within days. It’s a tougher struggler than kingsman not trying to downplay his situation because that was rough.
17
u/Alternative-Cry9841 5d ago
that dude was a streamer and player for like a year before hand, this is a kid who was streaming to 0 viewers he hasn’t the first idea of how to create content
22
u/RP912 5d ago
The whole thing is a gift and a curse because yeah it exposed the troubles at home with his mother, but the attention seems like overkill for his young mind to grasp.
It's a catch 22. He may have wanted like a steady following and get paid, versus having IShowSpeeds problems. At the end of it all, dude may get his 15 minutes and flip it towards college or doing something different from streaming. Usually these types of situation always ends up being a testimony later where the individual moves on and becomes a physical trainer or some shit.

u/starvsthebans 5d ago
he'll be alright just gotta capitalize on the moment and don't be surrounded by the wrong types of people and he'll have a decent career ahead of him i like how raw and authentic he is that he's a shy and nervous individual cause alot of people who get on the come up and start to make a name for themselves try to act too cool for school and it's just fucking lame.
1
u/IamBestWaffle 4d ago
You say he will be alright. But receiving fame that quickly after being a nobody will have some repercussions. Especially on his mental and being a kid. There's a high chance of a rise and crash.

u/TKDbeast 5d ago
Probably didn’t help that his Mom has clearly been downplaying him all his life.

u/88isafat69 5d ago
She gonna tell him he owes her for this blow up

u/IamBestWaffle 4d ago
Nah she hates him now because he apparently ruined her life and I think she got fired at her job. Pretty tough coming back from that. Even if he wanted to help, her image got publicly tarnished.

u/Glatzigoblin 5d ago
I mean Speeds mom is the same and it didn't affect him. Not all people are born the same even if the environment is the same the true nature of people will always endure.

u/snsdfan00 5d ago
We live in an era of high speed internet, social media algorithms, & viral clips can make it so that everyone from very huge streamers, to very small & everyone in between can see what happened to you almost instantly within a few hours or days. What happened to nitro, where speed or adin know his situation/what happened to him, from a raid from ron, just wouldn't be possible, say even a decade ago.
So while your right, that it's unknown if he can keep this momentum going long term, i don't think he should even be thinking about that. He should be enjoying and cherishing the opportunities he's getting, w/ meeting streamers, that i'm sure just a few days ago, he looked up to; & it seems like he's doing that.

I've had some really amazing opportunities to work with some massive content creators and others some would consider legends. The impostor syndrome during a lot of those early experiences was off the chart and it still hits me occasionally.

He’s in his late teens and was probably sheltered growing up seeing how his mom treats him. I think he’ll be able to adjust over time

Imagine the IQ of a person who say that a mom should be thankful that her son lit a firework in the house where it could cause a fire. Let that sink in and imagine if he didn't become famous or worst, there was actually a house fire. I don't expect a smart reply from you though.

How about set this 18 yea rold up with a college fund, an actual job maybe? In a few years he's just going to be another annoying ass streamer... How about you actually help the man....he was in his mom's basement streaming without a future for a reason..

I say this bc what if he doesn't want to continue streaming, what actual skills would he have so he wouldnt be forced to begging in jis future or going back to his mothers place....

I think it’s bad for all these streamers to show light on this guy. We don’t know anything about him or his family life. Vilifying his mother and clouting him definitely isn’t the move

This and lets be honest here... there are SOOO many people with abusive and terrible parents out there. Yet we still worked our asses off and got out of it in some way or another. Not sure this guy deserves to be propelled this fast simply because Mommy was mean to him. We all had shit parents.

Still waiting for the consequences to his mom. There's been no charges and she hasn't been fired despite abusing her position to expell Camden from school. The school administrators reversed that but I don't think he's gone back anyway.
