Gamer Dies After Allegedly Streaming Too Much

A Chinese gamer has died after allegedly pushing himself to the point of extreme exhaustion from excessive streaming. In recent years, streamers have felt pressured to do outrageous things to attract viewers and differentiate themselves from other content creators. Some of these methods include subathons, which can last for weeks or even months, or challenges to stream for as long as possible without sleep. But even streaming on a somewhat regular schedule can pose a health risk.
