Not sure if this is a repost, but on April 23rd 2023, a YouTuber with the username "empty" (a.k.a HerobrineHunt3r, or his possible first name Winston) killed himself with a shotgun and livestreamed it onto his YT channel.
The reason to his suicide was not known exactly, but it was believed that he had been depressed for a long time.
He kills himself at 2:40, No gore was shown as he turns off his camera to prevent people from seeing his lifeless body. He also had it to where his pc would turn off after he dies so his stream would end sooner.
Suicide Video (Full Stream)
The livestream stayed up for about 6/7 hours before it got taken down

This one is memorable to me because I actually watched the stream a couple hours after the whole stream was uploaded, and before YouTube took it down.

If he was gonna suicide in livestream, why did he turn off the camera?
He knew EXACTLY what's the deal of the people who watch this kind of shit and he didn't pleased us!
That's rude of him, but complaining won't revive him neither

It’s a repost. Not sure if you’re adding anything new that isn’t in the post comments.

A lot of gas canisters in the background...
Maybe depression out of B12 insufficiency due to long term abuse, inhaling gases. If so, it could easily been treated with vitamins. Sad.

I heard on a video about him (specifically one by Plagued Moth) that I watched that before his death his parents were pressuring him about his grades. RIP

No.
The people in the background were speaking Spanish... so they were probably neighbors.
HE was an Asian guy. I don't think his fam. would be speaking Spanish(?)
I could be wrong, though.
