Minecraft star TommyInnit shocked his fan base of millions after claiming that a debacle with his new apartment complex put him out on the streets.
TommyInnit is a hugely popular Minecraft content creator, boasting over 7 million followers on Twitch and over 11 million YouTube subscribers.
The young influencer is currently based out of the UK, and was in the middle of moving to a new apartment complex when a major twist of fate prevented his relocation at the last minute.
During a January 28 Twitch stream, Tommy called fellow Minecraft streamer Ranboo over Discord, regaling him with a tale that has quickly taken social media by storm.
TommyInnit “homeless” amid apartment gas leak
According to Tommy, there was a fairly serious gas leak in his new apartment — a place he called an “interim” location to stay at while he browsed for a more permanent living situation elsewhere.
With the gas leak happening, the landlord claimed that the area was unsafe for its tenants. Thus, Tommy had to leave his belongings behind and find other accommodations for the night.
Luckily, fellow Minecrafter Wilbur Soot opened his home to his comrade… but, according to Tommy, the conditions were less than favorable. Disliking the “freezing” temperature of Wilbur’s home, he left for the library in his local area, where he then called Ranboo.
Unfortunately, the young streamer says he isn’t of an age to book a hotel room for the night, and claims that the four hour drive back home isn’t worth it — especially with his things currently locked up in a gaseous apartment.

For now, it looks like Tommy’s in limbo until the issue gets sorted — but at least he’ll have one hell of a storytime video for his eventual grand return.
