Internet loses it as IShowSpeed climbs the 'Heavenly Ladder' in China

IShowSpeed is in China doing Speed things. The streamer recently visited the Fuxi Mountains in Xinmi, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, and climbed the infamous Heavenly Ladder. IShowSpeed posted the video of the same on social media platforms, where it went viral.

For the uninitiated, the heavenly ladder is famous for its steep slopes and thrilling ascent.

IShowSpeed walked up the stairs as the people watched him. He would occasionally look down for a few seconds as he walked up. Once he got to the top, he leaned back and peered down from the heavenly ladder.

It might have been fun for him, but it was equally thrilling for the viewers.

Social media is abuzz with jokes about the entire episode, with people saying he nearly reached the sky or reached the UFOs.

While many were in shock, they were also commenting on how it seemed like there was nothing holding him back—one misstep and who knows where he'd be.

Others admitted that their acrophobia would never allow them to even attempt something like this, while others even commented that he was attempting to unleash a new level of superhuman.

A couple even commented about what would happen if he chose to pull off his notorious backflip way up there!

Social media reacts as IShowSpeed climbs the heavenly ladder

Fans were freaking out over how it seemed like nothing was holding him back—joking that one misstep, and it would've been all over.

But as it turned out, there was actually a safety net on the bottom to catch anyone who did fall.

A user @heatjon noted:

"One misstep and he ded."

Another user @soursillypickle added:

"Am I tripping or is there nothing protecting him? 😳"

A user @CinnaBands went on to say:

"bro got a lot of faith in Chinese engineering."

The users jokingly remarked that he might be attempting to level up some sort of superhuman feat up there. Others confessed that their fear of heights would never allow them to even try it.

While others couldn't help but wonder about the pandemonium if he were to attempt doing his notorious backflip at that altitude.

A user @FuyumiChwaan stated:

"Bro tryna unlock Ultra Instinct at the top 😂"

One user @FreeAgen_ quipped:

"My acrophobia could never."

A user @douyinreels hilariously predicted:

"Imagine he just back flipped off it."

Netizens were quick to point out that IShowSpeed is everywhere but home—constantly on the go, constantly getting into something crazy.

Some people claimed their hands began sweating merely from watching, while others cracked jokes that they'd most likely freak out even thinking about attempting it themselves.

A user @tmfilly humorously pointed out:

"this man is everywhere but home."

Another user @freebranddon added:

"bro is trying different side quests."

A netizen @ribzoftiktok went on to highlight:

"My hands started sweating 3 seconds in."

One user, @Angelica_Reed1, humorously stated:

"I would literally sh*t my pants 😭"

This isn't the first time IShowSpeed has done something so crazy. Earlier, he scaled the Hand of God in Guatemala, and then, too, people were just as stunned and amazed by his death-defying tricks.
