Will Smith shook the world when he slapped Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards. The now infamous incident had audiences worldwide in disbelief. However, it seems the incident affected more than just Chris Rock. The altercation has already resulted in MrBeast’s Squid Game video having its 24-hour viewership record broken. And now it’s Chris Tyson, a childhood friend of MrBeast, who is dealing with the ramifications.

As expected, being named Chris on Twitter under the current circumstances is quite an ordeal. As such, Tyson has hilariously been dealing with call-outs from across the internet. He shared his thoughts on the matter in a recent Twitter post.

For the uninitiated, Chris Tyson is one of Jimmy’s oldest friends. Long-time followers of the viral maestro would recognize Chris from his older videos. Significantly, Chris was Jimmy’s first subscriber, even being present for the creation of his channel. His colossal contribution to the brand that is MrBeast has resulted in him being verified on Twitter. However, that has brought him significant trouble recently.

After the Will Smith-Chris Rock altercation, the internet went through a meltdown. Audiences worldwide were watching and re-watching the shocking event take place. With The Guardian’s uncensored video of the event surpassing MrBeast’s Squid Game viewership record. As a result, people have wrongfully been tagging Tyson as the American comedian on Twitter. All because of his username @chris.

Unaware of the comedian’s actual handle @chrisrock, people are tagging Tyson because of their similar names. As the creator hilariously notes, “My mentions are full of boomers tagging @Chris Rock now“.
