Phone Smashing Meltdown

On August 9, 2025, Josh experienced one of his worst meltdowns yet after being frybagged several times. His agitation exceeded that of the other crashouts, and after repeatedly threatening his phone, he ultimately smashed it. Notably, Josh became very aggressive and even attacked Tony.

Background

Josh was already on edge as he walked through the streets of Nashville, repeatedly complaining about his credit card debt and saying he wanted to return to Italy and “bake himself in a pizza oven.” Later, after being frybagged by multiple people, he snapped—becoming aggressive toward the trolls and resisting attempts to restrain him. He screamed incessantly, bit his own knee and hand, and hit himself. In the midst of the chaos, he hurled his phone to the ground, smashing it. Even after getting into an Uber, his meltdown showed no signs of stopping, screaming about his broken phone and assaulting the cameraman. When they got out of the Uber, he began to hit cars and they went into the hotel.
