YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul, is an intimidating individual. And, it would require a gargantuan amount of courage and an equal amount of stupidity to mess with this knockout maestro’s lady love. However, the ‘Nelk Boys’ decided to put their lives at stake by trying to hit on Paul’s girlfriend, Julia Rose.

The Nelk Boys were at a party with Paul and Rose. This was when Paul and Kyle Forgeard decided to play a prank on Aaron Steinberg AKA Steiny. The duo planned to create a scenario where Paul confronts Steiny for hitting on Rose. Moreover, talking about the intensity of the prank, Forgeard said, “I think one thing most people f*ck up on is not going hard enough.”

According to plan, Rose then proceeded to flirt with Steiny at the party, while also telling him to take off his t-shirt. Steiny, who was taken aback by the turn of events, could only blurt out, “I think Julia Rose wants me, bro. She’s like into me and sh*t.”

Meanwhile, Paul rejoined the group at the party and got to know about the Rose-Steiny fiasco. Paul then proceeded to ask the crew to ‘stop filming’, much to Steiny’s horror. In fact, Rose even accused him of fondling her without consent.

‘The Problem Child’ then went on to choke him to the ground while asking, “You grabbed her a*s bro? … We just had a f*cking conversation. Get these f*ckin cameras out of here.”

A horrified Steiny was at a loss for words. He was later reassured that it was a prank, much to his relief.
