The American YouTube star Ishowspeed is on a tour of Europe and on Wednesday he drove around Stockholm wearing a Swedish national team jersey and live-streaming.

Ishowspeed, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr, has over 25 million subscribers on YouTube.

In Stockholm, Ishowspeed visited, among other places, Gröna Lund, the Royal Palace, and Ikea, where he ate meatballs and was met by an enthusiastic gathering of Swedish fans. He then continued to Max, where he taste-tested a hamburger and met more fans. He went on to Fryshuset, where he teased a reporter from Sveriges Radio and put together a team with young people to play soccer.

Where are your parents? he screamed when a sea of kids barricaded one of the entrances.

The chaotic atmosphere persisted when Watkins left Fryshuset and was followed into his car by fans. Shortly afterwards, the live stream came to an abrupt end.
