A FOOTBALL TikToker was taken to hospital after “snapping his arm like pasta” live on air.
And he ended up in hospital with a broken humerus bone.
Tom Garratt was live on YouTube channel Pitchside for a watchalong show with Theo Baker, ChrisMD and WillNE for Sunday’s clash between Newcastle and Arsenal.
However, the quartet had to shut their weekly stream down early following the horror accident.
Before kick-off at St James’ Park, Garratt had an arm wrestle with fellow YouTube star Baker.
But within seconds of the tussle, Garratt’s arm made an audible cracking pop sound that was picked up by the microphone as his arm gave way.

Garratt, Baker, ChrisMD and WillNE suddenly fell silent in clear shock.
One can be heard repeatedly swearing before KSI’s pal Baker motions to cut the camera feed immediately.
And fans watching on from home were equally concerned about West Brom fan Garratt.
One said: “His arm snapped like pasta.”

Another wrote: “Taking it like a champ tbf.”
A third added: “That Tom Garratt clip actually just ruined my day.”
And a final user commented: “I’m never doing an arm wrestle ever again.”
Garratt was taken to hospital and had an X-ray on his arm which revealed he had broken the humerus bone which runs from the shoulder to the elbow.
He shared a smiling selfie with Baker in A&E with his arm completely covered in bandages.
Baker also posted a pic of his pal clearly in pain and added: “Hi guys, Tom’s had his X-ray and has broken his humerus. He says anything for the content!”
A later video showed Garratt tell the camera the humerus is “absolutely f***ed”.
Once the match did get underway, Martin Odegaard fired Arsenal in front with a long-range low drilled effort.
Fabian Schar turned into his own net with 20 minutes to go as the Gunners secured a big three points.
