Blurbs, the YouTuber Who Entered Red Dead Redemption 2 with a Crazy Mod

The world of game modding never stops surprising us, but what Blurbs—a creative YouTuber and Twitch streamer—pulled off is on another level. Known for his bizarre yet clever experiments, Blurbs once again went viral after successfully projecting himself into Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2) in the most unexpected way.

A Wild Idea Turned Real

Blurbs isn’t new to crazy mods. In the past, he has:

• Built a stock market inside GTA V.

• Turned Skyrim NPCs into chatbots that read messages from Twitch viewers.

• Even streamed as if he was literally inside the world of Tamriel.

But on August 4, 2025, he took it further by literally appearing inside Red Dead Redemption 2. The best part? He didn’t use expensive VR or motion capture tech—just two smartphones strapped together with rubber bands.

The Chaotic but Brilliant Process

In clips shared on social media, viewers watched him go through absurd in-game moments:

• Riding a hot air balloon across the plains.

• Getting forcefully bathed by NPCs.

• Casually lying on train tracks like nothing happened.

It all looked like he was really inside the game.

The idea came while he was working on a YouTube project where he turns fan suggestions into mods. Instead of sticking to the plan, he asked himself: What if I could actually project myself into a 3D game world, not just use green screen tricks?

The solution was messy but genius. He combined:

• Custom RDR2 mods.

• OBS with visual filters.

• His own Unity app.

• Background removal tools.

• A cheap selfie stick setup.

The key? Those two smartphones tied with rubber bands to manage camera angles. The hardest part was syncing all the software and devices—one tiny error and the whole effect broke down.

Three Days of Work Paid Off

After three full days of testing and tweaking, it finally worked. The results were both hilarious and impressive, keeping his Twitch audience entertained. Blurbs has also announced he will upload the full version on YouTube soon.

He admitted Red Dead Redemption 2 is his favorite playground for modding:

“The flexibility of modding in RDR2 is insane. Messing around with the game in silly ways is just pure fun,” he said.

Conclusion

Blurbs’ stunt shows once again that game modding has no limits. With nothing but creativity, some simple tools, and persistence, he pulled off something no other streamer has done before.

Fans can expect more outrageous mods in the future, as Blurbs plans to keep experimenting with RDR2 while also taking crazy ideas from his audience. One thing is clear: he just set a new bar for creative Twitch streaming.
