Released on September 28, New World is Amazon’s spin on an MMO title.

While being so invested in the quite literal New World, popular MMO streamer StaysafeTV was blind to his surroundings, and 10-hours into his stream, a squirrel took its prime opportunity to invade the house, running rampant for a short while before he noticed.

The streamer eventually noticed and was understandably shocked: “There is a squirrel in my house, there is a squirrel in my house! What the f**k,” he exclaimed, quickly rushing his dog out of the way before it noticed.

Staysafe’s plan was to chase the rodent down the hallway and out of the house through the door in his kitchen, but things didn’t go quite to plan, as the streamer didn’t account for how the squirrel would react.

As he got closer to the bathroom where the squirrel was, it suddenly lunged at him, scaring the life out of him, though luckily the invader was chased out of the house pretty quickly, leaving the streamer speechless and needing to catch a breath.
