Brussels YouTuber pranks metro travellers by pouring dog muck on them, gets arrested
YouTuber YaNike, who also goes by YD, was arrested after a victim of his prank and the Brussels Intercommunal Transport Company (STIB) lodged a complaint.
A YouTuber in Brussels was arrested after a series of his videos showing a disgusting prank went viral. The clips, shared on the YouTube channel of YaNike, show him pouring a mixture of dog muck, oil, and water on unsuspecting commuters in the Brussels subway.
All the YouTube videos of this particular prank that YaNike shared have the same pattern. It captures him making a mixture using oil, water, dog faeces and withered leaves. He then boards a metro and waits for it to stop at the next station. The moment the door of the train opens, he pours the mixture on one of the commuters and runs away.
Here is a video that shows him playing the same prank on a father and daughter duo:
