Watch: YouTuber IShowSpeed Stuns Fans, Jumps Over Speeding Lamborghini

Popular YouTuber IShowSpeed, real name Darren Watkins Jr., has captivated the internet with a stunt that seems almost too incredible to be true. The 19-year-old content creator recently posted a video on X (formerly Twitter) where he leaps over a speeding Lamborghini, leaving viewers stunned. The video quickly went viral, drawing comparisons to the legendary 2008 Kobe Bryant stunt where the NBA icon jumped over a moving Aston Martin.

In the video, IShowSpeed stands confidently as his father drives the Cristiano Ronaldo-themed Lamborghini towards him at a high speed. With impeccable timing, he jumps just in time to clear the vehicle, avoiding what could have been a catastrophic collision. After successfully pulling off the risky move, IShowSpeed excitedly urges his followers to like, subscribe, and follow his channels, proudly declaring himself the “first person in the world” to accomplish such a feat.

However, not everyone was convinced. Many social media users questioned the authenticity of the video, suspecting it might have been edited. In response, Speed’s cameraman and editor, Splitz, shared additional footage showing the stunt from multiple angles, including two failed attempts where the drone didn’t record properly. To further clarify, IShowSpeed himself tweeted from an alternate account, revealing that he had to perform the jump three times due to technical issues with the drone.

The stunt has sparked a wave of reactions across social media platforms. Some fans praised IShowSpeed’s athletic prowess, suggesting that he could easily have been a professional athlete. Others expressed concern for his safety, pointing out the risks involved in such a dangerous act. “Bro’s really risking his life for content,” one user commented. Another added, “Speed can’t have one normal day. A normal day is a day wasted for him.”

The video has amassed over 36.5 million views, with fans and skeptics alike debating its authenticity and the sheer audacity of the stunt. As the discussion continues, IShowSpeed’s leap over the Lamborghini has undoubtedly cemented his reputation as one of the most daring content creators in the game today.
