On March 14, 2018. Shuaiby started a livestream on his YouTube channel simply titled "Hey." Shuaiby started a Discord call, then held out a piece of paper with the text "Bye /r9k/." Shuaiby then loaded a KSG military tactical shotgun and shot himself. The rest of the video shows his mom walking in in horror to her son's face now blown off. The mother then calls 911. | On March 14, 2018. Shuaiby started a livestream on his YouTube channel simply titled "Hey."

A rumor began linking Shuaiby’s death to a user named Reiko, who often advertised their server on /r9k/.

This would later turn out to be a hoax. After the livestream, a user in Reiko’s server changed their screen name to Shuaiby’s screen name. Shuaiby’s death had nothing to do with Reiko or /r9k/, but it was rather due to general depression and problems with his mother.
