The 22-year-old internet personality is nearing the end of his sabbath, dubbed “Mafiathon 2,” which sees him stream for 30 days in the month of November. It has welcomed celebrity guests including Snoop Dogg, Miranda Cosgrove and Sexy Redd.
On Wednesday (November 26), Senat, Max and their friends met at the basketball court to get material for the live stream. However, Senat was reportedly unaware of a prank Max had started by standing on scaffolding with three lines of rope tied with ripcords behind him.
Max reached forward with a cord wrapped around his neck and encouraged Senat to pull one.
Max stated that he knew Senat would make the “right choice”, prompting Senat to pull the rope around Max, sending him into the air for a few moments before the rope collapsed. Senat immediately told his friends to stop the live stream and “put the camera down.”
When the cameras came back on, Senat looked worried. “What?” He asked him to stay behind as a member of Max’s team so someone could help untie the rope from Max’s neck.
“I might get banned,” Senat said. “Is he good? I’ll stay here.”

“Max told my team he was doing another job at the end, it had nothing to do with it. Then he did,” Senat insisted, per Dexerto.
Senat’s only response, reportedly from Max, was: “Let the story be what it is.”
Ever since Max pulled his prank, Senat has come under fire for airing the stunt. One person on X/Twitter wrote: “What was the plan here? Kidding or not this guy still has a rope around his neck who is just mad that Kai’s team would approve of anything like this in the first place. .
“There is no ‘magic’ or ‘joke’ to put a rope around someone’s neck. It’s just a line you don’t cross,” he continued.
Another person agreed: “In what world is it funny when your audience is a bunch of kids.”
Amid the backlash, some Senate supporters came to his defense, arguing that he had no idea what Max would do.
“Just watched the clip. Kai seems genuinely shocked and concerned for Max. Kai wouldn’t have given permission like that. I believe him and his team when they say they were told something was wrong. Gonna be different,” said one fan.
