Meanwhile, a concerned netizen asked in the comments section how the YouTuber was faring after his vicious encounter with a stingray.
Reflecting on the incident, Bretman recounted, "I honestly thought I stepped on something sharp at first but I knew I had to get out the water when I started to feel throbbing up to my head,
"when I got out I had 2 stings and that's how the locals knew it was a stingray..."
Bretman also detailed his swift recovery aided by herbal remedies.
"I put ice and it helped a lot but on the boat ride back I ran out of ice and I was legit rethinking my life, then they put plant medicine and then boom she's healed," he shared.
