German Streamer’s Cairo Endurance Walk Turns Terrifying As Children Hurl Rocks At Him During Livestream

A German streamer’s solo endurance challenge through the streets of Cairo descended into chaos when a pack of local children began hurling rocks at him while he livestreamed the ordeal.

Benjamool, a German IRL content creator known for long-distance walking challenges, was alone in a narrow residential alleyway when the group closed in. Wearing an orange T-shirt, glasses, and a backpack, he kept his camera rolling as the children surged around him, some shouting and others appearing to throw stones. In the footage, he repeatedly glances over his shoulder, ducks, and raises a hand toward his face while continuing to walk and speak to viewers.

The incident occurred during his self-imposed 200-kilometre trek around the Egyptian capital, which he had billed as a five-day “fever dream” endurance test. What was meant to be a straightforward physical challenge quickly turned hostile as the children followed him through the tightly packed streets of unfinished brick buildings and dusty lanes.

Benjamool has built an audience of roughly 24,000 followers on Twitch by documenting unscripted travel and walking projects. His Cairo attempt began days earlier with street-food and nightlife streams before shifting into the multi-day circuit. Clips of the rock-throwing encounter spread rapidly after they were shared by accounts highlighting the moment the walk “got ugly fast.”

In the video the streamer remains on the move, occasionally turning the camera toward the children trailing him. Several boys in casual T-shirts stay close, with at least one appearing animated and vocal. The streamer looks visibly unsettled but does not stop filming or abandon the route.

The episode has drawn sharp online reactions, with some viewers questioning the wisdom of a lone foreigner conducting a high-profile walking challenge through densely populated neighbourhoods, while others focused on the behaviour of the children. No official statement from Egyptian authorities or confirmation of any injuries has emerged from the available footage and accompanying posts.

Benjamool’s stream titles in the days surrounding the incident continued to reference the ongoing Cairo walk, indicating he pressed on with the challenge after the confrontation. The clip itself lasts under half a minute yet captures the abrupt shift from planned endurance content to an unpredictable street encounter.
