Streamer Breaks World Record For 1000-Hour Straight Twitch Broadcast

Imagine streaming your gameplay all day, then going to sleep and... not turning the stream off? Going about your day, buying groceries and hanging out, all while broadcasting? Well, that's exactly what Twitch streamer GPHustla has done, and in doing so has broken the current record for longest concurrent stream after being live for more than 1000 hours.

The previous record-holder, a streamer named Reecesy, held the record for longest concurrent broadcast with just over 200 hours, a target that GPHustla has put to shame.

GPHustla began his record-breaking journey in mid-August when the streamer was only attempting a 24-hour broadcast. However, as the hours went on, it became a marathon attempt, and everyday activities like sleeping, shopping, and more, became part of the stream which never ends.

GPHustla plays games like Fall Guys, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, and Fortnite.

One look at GPHustla's Twitter account will tell you he is "LIVE NOW", and doesn't plan on stopping any time soon, especially with the current media attention.

So where do you go from 1000 hours? Well, the only way is up. GPHustla appears to already be planning to extend his record.

Check out GPHustla's Twitch channel to follow along with his extraordinary journey.
