YouTuber pulls home stunt – but it goes really wrong when he floods his bathroom

A YouTube star decided to pull a stunt at home – but it went very badly when he ended up causing chaos on his neighbourhood.

Cyril Schreiner, from France, thought it would be clever to fill his bath with orbeez – silicone balls that expand in water – for his latest online clip.

But according to his plan, things didn’t go as smoothly as he wanted.

He said he hadn’t thought about the clean-up process properly or considered scooping them out of the bathtub, so he decided to pull the plug.

At this point, the balls filled the pipes and started coming back up through the toilet and sink.

This was when he realised that his plan didn’t go down well.

A Twitter user, @yuqheis, created a thread which documented the whole situation that secured more than 800,000 likes and 230,000 retweets online.

He captioned it: “This French guy filled his tub with orbeez then had no idea how to get rid of them so he just pulled the plug which resulted in orbeez overflowing both in his toilet and sink."

Cyril made matters worse when he started flushing the toilet – which obviously caused it to overfill itself.

And it wasn’t long before his entire bathroom completely flooded.

Then he decided to fix the damage he caused – so he tried to vacuum them up, but a while later the appliance started to smoke and caught alight.

The YouTuber claimed his entire neighbourhood’s sewage system was blocked and said he received a letter from the town hall saying police were searching for the culprit.

But his statement was later shut down by the mayor, who revealed there is no drainage system linking all of the houses in the neighbourhood, suggesting parts of the video were in fact fake.

Most fans weren’t impressed with Cyril’s plan, with many calling him out on the staged stunt.

One said: “Anyone with common sense would know you don’t flush this. He did the whole thing on purpose.”

Another commented: "But why? Why would you fill the tub with them. I personally would have scooped them out with a bucket into trash bags, assuming I had a tub of them for some reason."
