The abrupt ending of the video led fans and netizens to imagine the worst, while others prayed for the well-being of the influencer and Internet personality.
Sneako speaks out after rumors of his death circulated on social media
Hours after the clip depicting him appearing to commit suicide began circulating, Sneako shared on X that he would be streaming live on Parti. The 26-year-old streamer took to the online streaming platform Parti to address fans on the rumors about his death.
He also shut down claims that he had been cloned:
"I don't know why you guys are saying I'm cloned and all this stuff. Nothing happened. Everyone's overreacting about the balcony. I didn't come back from the dead.
He explained to fans that his phone stopped recording abruptly after the battery ran low and it shut down.
" I am not cloned. My phone died, I told you, I need to plug in my phone. I was just standing on the balcony, and the phone died. Everyone's freaking out. It's okay. Relax! You can stop blowing up my phone."
Sneako started streaming regularly on Parti after multiple bans on Kick for violating community guidelines. One such occasion was his Halloween party in 2024, where he showcased an individual dressed as Adolf Hitler.
Sneako’s official broadcast on Parti was from the inauguration ceremony of President Donald Trump on January 20, 2025. The streamer shared the news with fans on X:
"I am very happy to announce that after three months, I'm finally returning to streaming tomorrow, and the link is at parti.com/sneako."
Recently, the streamer has been helping rapper Kanye West promote his upcoming album, Bully, on live stream.
