16/9/24 Incident

| — Josh jumping off the stairs | ||
On September 16, 2024, Josh had a major meltdown during a livestream, potentially his most intense crashout to date, caused by Dom Bertucci threatening to steal his passport. Mr. Based tried to calm him down by promising to take him to a strip club and asking about his Uber, but got distracted by a troll calling him. During the crashout, Josh threw his hat on the ground and jumped down some stairs while negatively reacting to the TTS. When someone told him to chill, Josh then proceeded to call the person the n-word. The stream was then cut shortly afterwards when the man made a threat. Mr. Based then proceeded to record him at least twice and posted the videos onto TikTok, where it got re-posted onto Reddit. In the first video, Josh was seen on the streets of New York screaming, running around in a frenzy and trying to break into a store due to a fear that the unknown person was chasing him with knives. In the second video, Mr. Based asks a random passerby to calm Josh down, to no avail.
