== Firebomb Incident ==
On November 23, 2022, Jordan posted a video showing his house was firebombed and a potential attempted murder attempt was made on him. Commenters made theories that it was someone in power, but on February 15, 2023, CCTV footage of the firebomber was revealed. Multiple YouTubers, including Penguinz0, came to Jordan's support and commended his bravery as a journalist.
As a result of the publicity Jordan gained from the firebombing, he noted that his viewer base (which used to be almost exclusively Australian) suddenly grow internationally.
