A Disney employee who was let go from his job after 15 years became an overnight sensation when his Twitch stream shot him to internet stardom.
Chet Atkins was the voice of Crush the Turtle for Turtle Talk with Crush at EPCOT in Orlando, Florida, but he says Disney 'abruptly' let him go due to an unspecified medical condition that meant he repeatedly missed work.
The lifelong entertainer - who said he misses the job, which had him communicating and improvising with guests as the turtle from Finding Nemo, 'every day' - turned to live streaming video games on Twitch gaining just 101 subscribers and zero views.
But his life changed overnight when TikTok user KindPenguins shared a video of himself live-donating $450 as an act of kindness to Atkins during his stream.
The sweet clip shows the streamer singing a song in-character as Crush when the donation comes in and he gasps: 'I can't tell you what that means to me!'

The clip has since garnered 59.3 million views while Atkins - whose username is chetter72 - has amassed 300,000 subscribers on Twitch and 619,400 on TikTok.
Upon receiving the donation from KindPenguins, Atkins was visibly shaking and tearing up on the livestream.
He said: 'KindPenguins, what the heck? What the heck? KindPenguins, what are you doing? Oh my gosh. I can't tell you what that means to me.
'I'm shaking right now. Can you handle that? Is that OK for you? I don't know want to stress you out.'
Kind Penguins responded: 'Love deserves love.'
