Global YouTube star IShowSpeed brutally denied by Bondi baddie

IShowSpeed, who has a following of more than 33 million on YouTube, was swarmed after arriving in Australia - but one girl wasn’t interested.

Within 24 hours of landing in Australia juggernaut streaming sensation IShowSpeed had to be rescued after a failed flip into Sydney Harbor, had his hat stolen by an overeager fan and then pulled off a theft of his own.

So all in all just another day at the office for the 19-year-old American who has built a following of more than 33 million on YouTube with his wild stunts and access to some of the most famous people in the world.

Known as Speed for short, the Ohio native born Darren Jason Watkins Jr has raced Paris Olympics 100m champion Noah Lyle in a 50m sprint, jumped over the top of a speeding Lamborghini, appeared on WWE and met the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama - all in the past few months.

He began his tour of Australia and New Zealand in Sydney on Thursday and was immediately swarmed by young fans of his headline-grabbing approach to life.

A young woman turns her back on Speed.

Wearing a custom Socceroos jersey with his name on the back, Speed ventured to the Sydney Opera House, Taronga Zoo and then down to Bondi and drew a large crowd, with some parents travelling for hours on public transport with their kids to get a brush with fame.

But not everyone was eager to meet him.

Speed tried what the kids these days call his “rizz” on a young woman at the beach but was brutally denied as she turned her back and showed no interest in having a chat.

And that wasn’t his only mishap.

One overeager fan snatched a hat Speed was gifted and attempted to escape with it, but the streamer noticed immediately and chased him down and berated him.

“What the f*** wrong with you bro, this a gift! Don’t steal my hat,” he said.

Speed, a huge Ronaldo fan, had a very different approach after noticing a young fan wearing a Portugal jersey.

The Aussie kid offered to swap, but after he removed the top, Speed snatched it and took off.

“Give me your f***ing shirt,” he said as he walked off. “Give me your f***ing shirt, bro.”

He was able to escape the crowds and find a secluded spot on Sydney Harbor for his next stunt - a backflip into the water near Watson’s Bay.

But his attempt went awry as he over-rotated and landed flat on his back, emerging from the water calling for help.

“Help! Help! Ah, that s*** hurt,” he said, as another swimmer moved towards him to help him out of the water.

He later revealed he’d lost an earring in the dive and offered a $1000 reward for anyone who could find it for him.

Streamers and video content creators like Speed, Logan Paul, KSI and MrBeast have amassed huge following in recent years.
