xQc collapses during Sidemen Charity Match practice
Popular Twitch streamer Felix "xQc" decided to step out of his digital domain and onto a real football pitch for a rare in-real-life (IRL) streaming session.
The streaming sensation, known for his gaming prowess, ventured into the world of sports to prepare for the highly anticipated Sidemen Charity Match set to take place in 2023.
What's the catch? XQc will be playing the role of a goalkeeper, a position he's never attempted before.
During the IRL streaming session, it quickly became apparent that xQc's transition from the digital realm to the physical world was not without its challenges. T
he streamer, known for his humorous commentary and gaming antics, showed a different side of himself as he struggled to adapt to the demands of goalkeeping.
However, during the live stream, xQc looked very tired and had trouble breathing.
He's not known for being super athletic, and trying to be a goalkeeper for the first time was really hard for him.
You could see that he was having a tough time catching his breath, especially after practicing penalty kicks.
Just after half an hour of training, he was clearly very tired and had a tough time catching his breath.
After a few kicks, he suddenly walked away from his position and sat down on the ground in frustration.
He exclaimed, "Can't breathe properly!" as he expressed his difficulty in getting enough air.
'This looks like a panic attack'
Watching the streamer's efforts at goalkeeping raised a lot of worries.
One user wrote, "This looks like a panic attack, your brain just second guesses whether or not you know how to breathe so you suddenly panic, and makes you dizzy."
Another user wrote, "He's almost 30 and has been sitting on a chair for the past 10 years."
One user said, "ppl meme the fuck out of him about toe nail/foot skin diet and being a skeleton but for this event i dont think its funny he shouldnt risk doing it."
A user wrote, "Is just side stitches, he will be fine."
Another user wrote, "He must have some medical condition, whether psychical or psychological. Even if you never work out, standing in net moving a few meters for each save shouldn’t cause this, and it’s not like he’s 400 pounds.
After this when he recovered he explained how he “couldn’t breathe” or “forgot to breathe” because he was “focusing too much”…flabbergasted."
