In the video titled "Tazing Stream", Miko can be seen laughing as she wears a black collar.

She and her followers were allegedly playing the game "if you laugh, you lose", but the stakes were high.

Each time Miko laughed, she said she would shock herself with the high voltage dog collar.

She then hits the shock button for her collar and jumps as the voltage goes through her body.

Miko continued to laugh uncontrollably after the shocking incident.

The electronic shock collars are made for use in dog training, and makers advise against humans using them.

Online, many users rushed to her defence after her account was suspended.

One user tweeted: "Yet another reason why I despite Twitch... she legit did NOTHING wrong!"

According to a dog collar website, shock collars are not safe for human use.

They said: "The collars can cause a lot of pain, anxiety, and distress to the wearer."

As recordings of the video circulated online, she was temporarily banned from Twitch after online outcry.

In the days following the video, her channel was banned and read: “This channel is temporarily unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service."

The ban was originally meant to last a week, but after further investigation from Twitch, they lifted it days earlier than planned.
