A controversial YouTube star has been slammed for throwing cash on a homeless man in Sydney in a stunt that has been described as 'degrading' by some outraged viewers.

'Here we go, let's go, baby,' he laughs as $100 worth of $5 notes flutter to the ground as the man quickly starts to gather them up.
