The YouTuber IShowSpeed had to be hospitalized after recording an insane video descending a hill in the traditional cheese race at Cooper’s Hill.
Darren Jason Watkins Jr., known as IShowSpeed on social media, was hospitalized after participating in the cheese race at Cooper’s Hill. He recorded his experience for his YouTube channel.
Speed described the race as “one of the most dangerous videos of all time”. In the video, he follows other participants and shows excitement for the race. The first person to reach the cheese wins a Double Gloucester.
Speed finished fourth in the competition and had difficulty getting up at the end of the race. “This really hurts”, he exclaimed. Local doctors confirmed that Speed aggravated an old injury resulting in a fracture.
Even weakened, Speed seemed enthusiastic for the next edition of the race. “I want to do it again because now I know how to win,” he told the BBC.
