'No way Speed's a superhuman": Fans stunned by IShowSpeed's unreal stunt in Poland
Image via: Getty Images IShowSpeed is no stranger to viral moments, but the recent one created in Poland has split the crowd into awe and disbelief. The 20 year old, touring the high octane IRL stream in East Europe, in cahoots with fitness trainer Adam Josef, took on a task which would normally be deemed impossible-lifting a car! And of course, not just any car, a one-ton Mazda MX-5, with passengers added for subsequent rounds. Crowd Cheers but Debates Follow Live footage of the event on July 17 began spreading rapidly across X and TikTok. It showed Speed disdaining any safety gear like belts or lifting straps and doing multiple deathlifts of the car. "I'm about to lift three humans in a car, bro," he said. "Ain't nobody doing that but Superman." The same fans erupted into cheers while watching the stream, especially when Speed pulled off the final lift with three adults onboard, and social media had exploded with reactions. Some regarded it as a superhero-worthy act. On the other side, the doubters were quick to address the mechanics behind the moment. A popular post on X went viral for praising him. 'Nah, that's cap. No way Speed's a superhuman,' the user wrote, adding a breakdown that estimated Speed likely lifted around 70 kilograms (154 lbs), factoring in lever support from the car's build and its rear axle. Despite the skepticism, the stunt still required considerable strength and determination, especially considering Speed's refusal to use support gear and his obvious physical strain. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cardiologists Confirm: 60-Year-Old Sheds Fat With 4 Ingredients The Healthy Way Learn More Undo After one of the lifts, he admitted, 'F**k, I'm dumb lightheaded,' before collapsing momentarily, only to bounce back with full force.

Ishowspeed falls for CZN Burak's prank in Turkey
IShowSpeed has become the centre of online discussion after being pranked by a Turkish waiter during his European tour. The streamer, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr., was visiting Turkey when he experienced the popular local 'spilling prank' often performed on tourists. The prank involves a server pretending to spill hot tea or food on a customer, causing panic, only for the customer to realise that the bowls and cups are either empty or attached to the tray. During his visit, IShowSpeed was approached by a waiter holding two steaming kettles. The server then pretended to drop one of the kettles on Speed, prompting him to jump out of his seat in alarm. Realising the kettles were empty, Speed appeared frustrated and shouted at the waiter to 'stop f*cking playing' while others at the scene laughed, including the server and surrounding customers. The moment was captured on video and quickly circulated across social media platforms. 🚨| WATCH: Burak just pulled the BIGGEST JOKE on Speed 😭😭😭🇹🇷 Burak, Speed'e şimdiye kadarki EN BÜYÜK ŞAKAYI yaptı 😭😭😭🇹🇷 — Speedy HQ (@IShowSpeedHQ) July 13, 2025 Reactions to the incident were mixed. Some viewers criticised Speed's reaction, labelling it as exaggerated, with one user stating, 'It's sad how people like Speed make themselves like clowns for a few clicks.' Others focused on his quick reflexes, commenting, 'Now I know why he's called Speed,' and 'That is totally cool to see iSpeed's speed.' The prank took place during IShowSpeed's Europe Tour Part 2, which began on July 7 and will include stops in several countries such as Bosnia, Estonia, Poland, and Turkey. The tour also marks Speed's return to Twitch after years away from the platform, with live broadcasts available on both Twitch and YouTube for viewers to follow his travels.
