American YouTuber IShowSpeed shot to global fame with his wacky live streams, where he takes up “impossible” challenges. Now, the YouTuber is dominating the social media scene after he tried to break his own record of achieving 100 backflips in just 30 minutes.

IShowSpeed challenged himself to do over a thousand backflips in 24 hours and break the “world record” during a live stream on his YouTube channel. “The reason why I am doing this inside is because there’s a damn hurricane happening outside,” he says during the live stream. “I wanna prove everybody wrong who said I cannot do these flips wrong,” he says as he stretches his body before taking up the challenge.

A clip from the live streaming was shared by an X handle @FearedBuck, which is now garnering attention on the internet. The viral video shows IShowSpeed panting and trying to catch a breath after doing the flips. “IShowSpeed has officially completed 100 backflips in just 30 minutes. He was projected to reach 100 backflips in almost 3 hours initially, he might beat the world record sooner than anticipated,” the caption on the video read.

The video garnered over six million views, and got a sea of reactions. A user wrote, “From jumping Lamborghini to this yeah speed is on a whole another level.” Another user commented, “If they had KSI’s new song on repeat and told me the only way to turn it off was beating this record I’d do it in an hour.”

“He is gonna break the world record of 1001 backflips in like 10 hours. Speed is unreal,” a third user reacted. “iShowmeat is gonna be going to the hospital,” another user wrote.

This is not the first time that IShowSpeed has made waves with his athleticism. Earlier, a video of him jumping over Lamborghinis was widely circulated.
