Renowned YouTuber Rajab Butt’s birthday celebration turned chaotic late on December 28 when gas balloons exploded during a family surprise, causing minor injuries to some of his friends. The incident, captured live on TikTok, quickly went viral across social media platforms.
Butt’s family had surprised him during a live TikTok session, bringing balloons, flowers, and cakes to mark his special day. The celebration took place in a cozy family setting, with Rajab seated on a sofa, preparing to cut the cake as gas balloons floated above him.
Tragically, the joyful moment turned into a frightening ordeal when a sudden explosion occurred, believed to be triggered by a flame coming into contact with the balloons. The room was momentarily engulfed in flames, as seen in the viral footage.
While Butt himself escaped unharmed, reports indicate that some of his friends sustained minor burns. In the video, one individual can be seen with a reddened face following the blast.
As of now, Rajab Butt has not addressed the incident on his social media platforms, and no official footage from his family has been released. However, clips saved by fans and social media pages have continued to circulate online, sparking widespread discussion.
A Series of Controversies
This mishap follows a string of controversies involving the YouTuber. Earlier in December, Rajab Butt’s extravagant wedding garnered significant attention on social media but also led to legal trouble. On December 15, he was briefly detained for keeping a lion cub and displaying weapons without a license during the wedding festivities. He was later released by authorities.
Additionally, Butt recently faced backlash over an old video allegedly showing him disrespecting namaz (prayer). The video sparked outrage, leading Advocate Mian Bilal from Lahore to demand a public apology and announce legal action.
In response, Rajab Butt issued a public apology and recorded a video with Islamic scholars from various sects, who clarified that he had not desecrated the prayer.
The recent birthday mishap adds another chapter to the eventful life of the popular YouTuber, whose fame continues to attract both adoration and controversy.
