The young influencer died instantly when the tractor suddenly folded in half and terrifyingly squashed him on the ground.
Chilling footage from moments before his untimely death show Deshwal leaning back on the tractor so it is at a 90 degree angle.
Slowly the heavy motor starts to tip back as the massive wheels spin in the soft, sandy ground start to lose traction.
The dad-of-one was then forcefully thrown backwards towards the ground as the tractor flipped on top of him – leaving him crushed to death.
His pals standing nearby can be heard screaming in horror as the awful events unfolded in front of them and to thousands online as they live streamed the fatal stunt.
The horrifying ordeal happened on Wednesday in Panipat district, Haryana, India.
Deshwal gained over 1.3million Instagram followers and a whopping 1.5million YouTube subscribers in just three years of doing social media.
He was known for his love of tractors and regularly posted videos of himself doing various tricks and daring stunts with them.
He was married to a loving wife for 18-months and the pair shared a six-month-old son.
Since his death, fans online have been speculating over what caused the tractor to act in such shocking fashion.
Deshwal frequently performed similar stunts and always did so successfully and safely.
This led to some suggesting the terrible accident was down a faulty tractor.
One viewer said: “This is an old tractor and it didn’t have proper roll bars.
“The homemade roll bar collapsed as soon as the tractor flipped, crushing him.”
Another left a similar comment saying: “Those bars are called a rollover protection system.
“It looks like they bent.
“Maybe they were aftermarket and not properly sized for the tractor because that is the exact type of accident it’s designed to prevent.”
Before a third wrote: “It appears that the rear part of the seat was the part that failed.
“It presumably wasn’t designed to support the weight of something like 40 per cent of the tractor.
“It appears that the seat just broke and let the tractor naturally fall on the poor guy.”
