Man installs 25,000 viruses onto his laptop to see how tech support can handle fixing the issue

A man got so carried away with installing viruses on his laptop that even tech support couldn’t fix the mess.

YouTuber Basically Homeless decided to have some fun by loading his laptop with a tonne of viruses - 25,000 to be exact - and then calling tech support to see how they’d handle it.

'Starting out, I wanted it to appear totally normal,' he described. 'I'm just having trouble with my computer.'

He rang up different tech support services and gave them access to his laptop to try and fix the issue.

To make things more interesting, he set up a countdown timer that would supposedly change his 'computer into a bean' once it reached zero.

Most tech support agents tried to fix the problem by simply turning the computer off and on again, hoping it would solve the issue. But the YouTuber prepared for just that.

'I kinda assumed they would do that. So, it's all programmed in where it just starts back up right where it left off,' he said.

In the 25,000 viruses he downloaded, he added points which would trigger annoying pop-ups like unclosable Subway Surfer ads.

There was also a one-in-five chance that after restarting, butterflies would cover the screen, and a giant Russian cursor he previously installed would appear.

More and more strange pop-ups showed Spiderman with a pizza, Spongebob characters and even threats from Nintendo's Mario and the team slowly reached their wit's end.

At seven minutes, the first agent dropped off.

'I'm kind of in a shock,' she said who then suggested he visit a store for help.

Then after another few pop-ups, another agent gave up. 'Your computer is quite the odd one,' they described.

Eventually, the remaining two tech support agents also recommended taking the laptop to a repair shop - which he did, only with an extra virus installed.

For his grand finale, the YouTuber installed a virus via USB that turned every face in his pictures into beans when he tried to print them.

'That's crazy, I've never seen anything like that,' the tech guy said, calling it the 'coolest virus' he's ever seen.

Then, the timer reached zero and the screen quickly became overloaded with millions of bean pictures.

But the YouTuber undoubtedly gave the tech crew something they'd never seen before.

Viewers were just as amazed at the tech support's reactions.

'Imagine you’re told to become a PC repair guy because you like video games and this is your first customer,' the first user said.

'Imagine being the poor tech support rep that’s used to dealing with people being logged out of Gmail,' a second added.

'At this point, bro is just blacklisted from Tech Support services,' a third chimed in.
