Famous streamer IShowSpeed faces language barrier at Galata Tower
World-famous YouTube streamer IShowSpeed became a trending topic on social media after failing to find an English-speaking staff member at Galata Tower during his live broadcast in Turkey.
Popular American streamer Darren Jason Watkins Jr., known as IShowSpeed, is continuing his live broadcasts in Turkey following his visit to Greece. The streamer, who previously came to Istanbul for the Champions League final, this time explored tourist areas in Taksim.
Visiting Galata Tower, the 20-year-old IShowSpeed wanted to learn about the tower's history but could not find a staff member who spoke English. The fact that staff members tried to explain the tower's history with the help of a translation tool caused a stir on social media. IShowSpeed's surprise at the situation and the criticism of 'incompetence' from social media users drew attention.
Galata Tower was transferred from the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism in 2019. This change took place one year after Ekrem İmamoğlu was elected mayor.
