It means: "You are going to die in 20 seconds"

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. At first glance it looks like it could be something written in Romaji, but trying to make any sense of it seems impossible. I would say it is gibberish.

Correct me if I'm wrong (and I really do mean that

),
but doesn't the sound 'we' in Japanese not exist?
Or is that only in kana?

Your friend does not know any Japanese, and he's trying to look cool.

Next time you see him, laugh in his face and tell him he's far from it.

It is gibberish. The sound "we" has not existed in Japanese for a long time. Also, "desu" would not appear in the middle of a sentence. Also, your friend should not use "desu" with you anyway.

And how old are you that you've been studying Japanese since you were four or five years old but cannot realize that?

If you are using an online translator then you are not capable of speaking Japanese.

And I don't know of any online translators that spit it out in romaji and use things like "weru".
