| — Josh jumping off the stairs | ||
Josh recorded the very first verion of Forever Drunk, prior to the newer version recorded at Quad Recording Studios. While at the recording studio, Josh spotted a bottle of wine at the table and proceeded to drink all of it by pouring it into a glass.[1] The sound studio engineer ended up disabling his internet so that Josh and Mr. Based would leave. While outside, Josh had a major meltdown, potentially his most intense crashout to date, caused by Dom Bertucci in the TTS 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.[2]
