YouTube sensation IShowSpeed has achieved a remarkable milestone during his ongoing Africa tour. The popular content creator, whose real name is Darren Watkins Jr., made history by broadcasting the first-ever live stream from inside the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
Historic Moment Captured Live
IShowSpeed launched his ambitious 28-day journey across Africa, calling it "Speed Does Africa." After creating excitement with earlier streams in Angola, he reached Egypt where something extraordinary happened. Egyptian authorities cleared the Pyramids of Giza of regular tourists to grant him exclusive access.
In viral footage circulating online, the 20-year-old streamer can be seen expressing pure excitement about his unprecedented opportunity. "We are about to make history right now," he declared enthusiastically. "Nobody has ever streamed inside of the Pyramids."
Inside the Ancient Chambers
The live stream showed IShowSpeed entering the narrow tunnel-like passages of the ancient structure. An accompanying archaeologist provided historical context during the exploration. "We have three chambers," the expert explained as they moved through the pyramid's interior.
"The first streamer to stream in the Pyramids, let's go chap!" IShowSpeed announced triumphantly as he began his broadcast from within the historic site. He started by sharing drone footage of the pyramids' exterior, building anticipation among his viewers before revealing his unique location.
Social Media Erupts with Reactions
The historic stream quickly gained massive attention across social media platforms. Viewers expressed amazement at the unprecedented access granted to the YouTube star.
"How is he getting access to this?" one astonished viewer questioned online, capturing the sentiment of many who watched the stream.
Another fan praised the creator's growing influence, stating, "Speed's streams are getting more insane every single time. He's completely on another level right now, and honestly, no one else is doing it like him."
A third observer noted his unique appeal, commenting, "No one has captured an audience like him. It's a serious talent to attract millions in every stream."
Following in Famous Footsteps
IShowSpeed's achievement comes after another major YouTube personality, Jimmy Donaldson (known globally as MrBeast), spent 100 hours inside the Great Pyramids of Giza in February 2025. MrBeast documented his exclusive visit in a lengthy YouTube video that gained widespread attention.
During his own pyramid exploration, MrBeast planted $10,000 worth of gold inside the Sphinx, creating additional buzz around these ancient Egyptian landmarks.
IShowSpeed's Africa tour continues to generate excitement as he shares unique experiences with his massive online following. His historic pyramid stream represents just one highlight of his 28-day journey across the continent.
