0:00

There was a time not too long ago when I

0:02

show Speed's entire universe existed

0:04

within the four walls of a bedroom. One

0:07

chair, one monitor, one webcam that

0:09

falls off now and then. Back then, Speed

0:11

was loud, wild, and completely out of

0:14

control. But everything stayed in that

0:16

room. It was chaotic, but it was safe.

0:18

As the years passed by, Speed's fan base

0:20

didn't just grow. It exploded. And all

0:23

of a sudden, Speed wasn't just streaming

0:25

from his room anymore. He was stepping

0:27

outside into the real world where

0:29

everything is unpredictable. Speed soon

0:31

realized that he wasn't just meeting

0:33

fans anymore. The world outside wasn't

0:35

kind and it definitely wasn't safe. The

0:38

watch, bro. Who the [ __ ] is this, bro?

0:41

Get the [ __ ] the [ __ ] out of here, bro.

0:44

And if someone was mean, he couldn't

0:46

just ban them from chat. That's when

0:48

Speed realized that he desperately

0:49

needed protection. Not just from danger,

0:52

but from the chaos. And that's when

0:54

Henry and Rudiger stepped in. But these

0:56

weren't just regular bodyguards in black

0:59

shirts. They became a part of the I show

1:01

Speed family. If you ever tuned into a

1:03

Speed stream, you can see the chat

1:05

flooding with where's Henry or Rudiger W

1:08

safe? Because they weren't just keeping

1:10

Speed safe. They were keeping the entire

1:12

operation running. Some fans even say

1:14

Speed can't go live without them.

1:19

move. Hey, move out of the way.

1:22

But in Speed's world, it's not enough

1:24

just to be security. You've got to

1:26

become family. So, who exactly are Henry

1:28

and Rudiger? And what does it really

1:30

take to protect the wildest streamer in

1:32

the world? It all started during the FA

1:34

Cup 2023 finals when Speed was in the

1:37

crowd and decided to troll a Manchester

1:39

City fan. This guy in front of me is a

1:41

Man City fan. I'm about to troll him.

1:43

You don't care about Man City. It's Man

1:46

City. Imagine being a Man City fan. But

1:48

then all of a sudden, the fan finally

1:51

lost his patience and did something no

1:53

one expected. He fought back, but not

1:55

with his words. Hey, bro. Bro, what the

2:00

[ __ ]

2:02

Yo yo yo yo yo. Before anyone could

2:05

process it, the guy slaps the phone

2:07

right out of Speed's hand. Speed

2:08

security guard quickly jumped in, but

2:11

the damage was already done. The

2:12

bodyguard was quick, but that day he

2:15

wasn't quick enough. What the [ __ ] bro?

2:18

What did you just do, bro? In that split

2:20

second, Speed realized that something

2:22

had to change. Having bodyguards wasn't

2:24

enough. He didn't just need muscle. He

2:26

needed loyalty because next time it

2:28

could end with someone in the hospital.

2:30

And just a few days later, Speed was in

2:32

Turkey live streaming from the streets

2:34

of Estumble. This time though, he came

2:36

more prepared. Chad noticed a tall,

2:38

quiet figure always standing behind

2:40

Speed like his shadow. He didn't speak

2:42

much, but his eyes were always scanning

2:44

the background, taking in every detail,

2:47

ready for anything. And just like that,

2:49

without even saying a word, the world

2:51

was introduced to Henry. Henry wasn't

2:53

just a bodyguard. He looked like he'd

2:55

body you. Some say he doesn't blink.

2:57

Others say that Henry can sense a

2:59

sprinting fan before they even start

3:01

moving. Henry was so serious about his

3:03

job that he barely posted anything

3:05

personal on social media. All people

3:07

really knew was that he worked in the

3:09

UK, had experience protecting local

3:11

politicians, and had even worked with

3:13

the Sidemen and KSI. Beyond that, it

3:15

felt like he just appeared out of

3:16

nowhere, fully built for the job. But

3:19

Henry didn't need a backstory because

3:21

the internet wrote one for him. Parody

3:23

pages started popping up everywhere,

3:25

racking up thousands of likes with

3:27

edits, memes, and clips of him in

3:29

action. And honestly, after seeing him

3:31

do his job, it wasn't hard to see why.

3:33

Henry had arrived, and he wasn't playing

3:35

around. It didn't take long for Henry to

3:37

prove himself. He was there for Speed.

3:40

Even for the small things, like this one

3:42

time, Speed was trying to find something

3:44

to clean his phone screen with. And

3:46

without hesitation, Henry offered his

3:48

t-shirt. Yo, Chad, should I drop this

3:50

car?

3:53

[Music]

3:55

No. No. But Henry's job isn't always

3:58

that easy. Like during this Italy stream

4:00

when fans got too close to Speed's car

4:02

and Henry had to take things in his own

4:04

hands. To some, it looked like Henry

4:06

might have shoved a woman while trying

4:08

to protect Speed and the internet wasn't

4:11

happy. Soon after that, the streams got

4:13

way bigger. Fan interactions weren't

4:15

just awkward. They were getting

4:16

aggressive. And Speed realized that

4:18

although Henry had his back, he couldn't

4:20

be everywhere at once. He needed another

4:23

set of eyes. And that's when Rudiger

4:25

made his debut. While Speed was out

4:27

there streaming from Korea, Rudiger

4:29

wasn't just another guy in black trying

4:31

to hold back the crowd. He came with a

4:33

serious resume. Before ever stepping

4:35

into the unpredictable world of IRL live

4:38

streams, Rudiger had already made a name

4:40

of himself in Hollywood. He worked as a

4:42

professional stuntman, appearing in

4:44

major movies like Hopsson Chong, where

4:46

he handled the stunts and even shared

4:48

the set with Dwayne Duck Johnson. With a

4:50

towering frame and an intense, watchful

4:53

presence, Rudiger gave off the

4:54

impression of someone you'd never want

4:56

to cross. Now, here's the funny part.

4:58

You'd think his real name was Rudiger

5:00

because that's what everyone calls him,

5:02

but you couldn't be more wrong. His real

5:04

name is King Hercules, and honestly, it

5:07

suits him better. So, why does everyone

5:09

call him Rudiger? Well, it all started

5:11

in Speed's chat. When they first saw

5:13

him, they couldn't ignore the striking

5:15

resemblance to the German footballer

5:17

Antonio Rudiger.

5:19

Bro, they said you like Rutiger.

5:23

[Music]

5:26

They said you like Rutiger. Yeah. Yeah.

5:28

My chat. They said they they said your

5:31

bodyguard look like Rudiger. That is

5:33

crazy. And just like that, it became

5:35

more than a joke. It became his new

5:37

name. From then on, Rudiger was what

5:39

everyone knew him by. And eventually, he

5:42

simply became Rudy.

5:46

Rudiger soon became a core part of the

5:48

stream's universe. Just like Speed, his

5:50

reaction started taking the spotlight,

5:53

[Applause]

5:56

too. As he became a regular face on the

5:58

streams, something else changed, too.

6:01

Henry, who was once the stone, cold,

6:03

nononsense protector, began to loosen

6:05

up. Their dynamic went from just

6:07

security to more of a duo. one serious,

6:10

one lively, but both fully focused on

6:12

keeping the stream running and Speed

6:14

safe. This marked the beginning of a new

6:16

era in Speed's live streams. Henry, who

6:18

used to stand there like a living

6:20

security camera, actually started having

6:22

fun. He began doing things he'd never

6:24

done before. Like this one time during

6:26

this haunted house stream, Speed was

6:28

actually losing his mind. But little did

6:30

he know, the person scaring him was the

6:32

very man he hired to protect. Who did

6:36

this? Hold

6:43

diss where he at? Where's he at? He's

6:47

black. What the

6:49

[Music]

6:51

[ __ ] But as time passed, Speed gained

6:54

two big brothers he never knew he

6:55

needed. Speed's trust in them grew

6:57

stronger every day. After a wild horse

7:00

ride, when he wanted to get off, without

7:01

a second thought, Speed jumped straight

7:03

into Rudiger's arms. Wait, stop him.

7:05

Stop him. Get off. Stop him. Wait, let

7:08

me go on you.

7:10

Thank you. Yeah. And that wasn't the

7:13

only time the big brother energy kicked

7:15

in. When Speed was struggling with a tie

7:17

in China, Henry, just like an older

7:19

brother, stepped in and fixed it without

7:21

saying a word. And just like older

7:23

brothers, they weren't only there to

7:24

handle the crowds. They were also there

7:27

to protect Speed from himself. In one of

7:29

the China streams, when Speed joked

7:31

about jumping off a boat, Rudiger wasn't

7:33

impressed by the threat. But when Speed

7:35

actually doubled down and tried to jump,

7:37

Rudiger was more than prepared. I always

7:40

wanted to jump off of a boat.

7:42

Huh?

7:46

Even though Henry and Rudiger always had

7:48

Speed's back, one thing was clear. They

7:51

didn't treat him like he couldn't handle

7:52

things on his own. Take that one time in

7:54

China when Speed was choking on some

7:56

food.

7:59

[Music]

8:07

Hey, creeps up. Hey, creeps up. Most

8:10

people would have freaked out, but not

8:12

Henry and Rudiger. They just glanced at

8:14

each other, watched him for a second,

8:16

and let him handle it. They kept an eye

8:17

on him, but didn't feel the need to step

8:19

in. Henry and Rudiger might not always

8:21

be the center of attention, but trust

8:23

me, when they are not on screen, the

8:25

chat feels it.

8:31

Caught you lucky. I got him lucky. I

8:34

caught him lucky. It doesn't take long

8:35

for the messages to start pouring in

8:37

asking where they've gone. Take Rudiger

8:40

for example. When he was missing from

8:41

one of the streams, the chat started

8:43

blowing up wondering where he was. But

8:46

little did they know, Rudiger wasn't

8:48

slacking off. In fact, that day he was

8:50

behind the camera stepping in for slips

8:52

who was a bit under the weather. Where's

8:54

Rudiger? He's filming. I'll put the

8:56

camera to your face. and they keep

8:58

saying where you at. He's film man. This

9:00

just goes to show that Rudiger isn't

9:02

just a bodyguard. He plays multiple

9:03

roles behind the scenes. And it's not

9:05

just the Chad who's fan of Rudiger. He's

9:07

got his own following, especially in

9:09

China. What's up, Shiaon Shu? This is

9:13

Rudy here. I understand you guys are

9:15

giving me a nickname out here, Shia.

9:21

Just wanted to say share to everybody

9:25

that's

9:26

um showing me love out here and um this

9:30

is my official account so I will be

9:32

posting more. Thank you. While Speed's

9:35

the main character in China, Rudiger was

9:37

stealing his fair share of the

9:39

spotlight. While Speed was doing his

9:41

thing, Rudy was out there getting

9:42

attention of his own. Like this one time

9:44

in China when a woman asked to touch

9:46

Rudiger's muscles. He handled it like a

9:49

total pro. I love you both. You know, I

9:51

like your muscle. Can I touch your

9:53

muscle, please? Please, please. The

9:56

entrance. Oh my god. Oh my god. Rudy

9:58

might have the risk to charm the ladies,

9:59

but when it came to speed, he was no

10:01

match for his boss. Like this one time,

10:03

Rudy decided to raise speed, thinking he

10:06

could keep up. But speed showed Rudy

10:08

exactly why he got his name.

10:10

See, you better go.

10:15

You're so slow. You're so slow. No,

10:18

you're not. You so slow. You You lost. I

10:22

You lost. He lost, bro. He lost. Henry

10:26

and Rudy might be security, but they're

10:28

also human. Like many other celebrities,

10:30

Speed never seems to forget that. When

10:32

their workload isn't too heavy, they get

10:34

to have fun just like anyone else. Take

10:36

this one time in Singapore. With things

10:38

calm for a moment, Speed decided to live

10:40

stream something a little wild. Bungee

10:42

jumping.

10:45

Why am I doing with Henry? What am I

10:48

doing?

10:53

And of course, Henry and Rudy were all

10:55

in. Embracing the frill like the big

10:57

kids they are. Uh-oh. Hey, GG. That's

11:00

it.

11:02

That's it. Wait till you get all the way

11:04

up. That's it. Pull it. Oh. Oh [ __ ] Oh

11:09

[ __ ] Oh my god. Oh my god. I just Oh my

11:12

god. I thought I Oh my I bet I thought

11:14

they died. Oh my

11:16

god. Oh my god. Oh my god. My heart

11:20

dropped. No. My heart

11:23

dropped. It's moments like these that

11:25

show. Even though they're always on

11:27

duty, Speed knows how to make sure they

11:29

get to enjoy the ride, too. But not

11:31

every stream is all laughs and good

11:33

vibes. Sometimes the crowd gets a little

11:35

too crazy. And that's when Henry and

11:37

Rudy have to really lock in. And even

11:39

then, things don't always go as planned.

11:42

Like during that stream in Czech

11:43

Republic, things got chaotic fast and

11:45

Henry jumped in to shield speed from the

11:47

crowd. But in the chaos, he accidentally

11:50

pushed Speed himself, sending his head

11:52

straight into the camera.

11:54

Hey, watch out. Watch out. Watch out.

11:57

Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.

12:01

Oh, this is my head on the camera.

12:05

Got pushed into the camera.

12:09

Keep it clear. My head on the camera.

12:11

Even with all their experience, moments

12:13

like that just go to show that sometimes

12:15

things are just impossible to control.

12:18

But sometimes they have to go a little

12:19

overboard to keep things in check. Like

12:21

this one time a kid was banging on

12:23

Speed's car window way too hyped for his

12:25

own good. Rudiger didn't hesitate and

12:28

quickly stepped in. And well, let's just

12:30

say the kid got yeed away from Speed

12:33

real quick. Don't bang. Do not bang.

12:35

Don't bang. Don't bang. Don't bait.

12:42

It wasn't personal, just business.

12:44

Because when it comes to keeping speed

12:46

safe, Rudy's got zero hesitation. The

12:48

same energy carried over to Shang Sha,

12:50

China, where Rudiger wasn't letting

12:52

anything slide. He was locked in,

12:54

looking out like a hawk. There were

12:56

friends everywhere. And when one of them

12:58

got a bit too close for comfort, Rudy

13:00

was already on the case.

13:03

Where's

13:04

Anro? We got to meet you, Roach. We got

13:07

to find all. And if there was ever any

13:09

doubt about how far Rudiger is willing

13:11

to go for speed, just look at what

13:13

happened during his 32 million

13:14

celebration in Cambodia. The crowd was

13:17

packed shoulderto-shoulder, voices

13:19

screaming, phones in the air. The energy

13:21

was off the charts. In the middle of it

13:23

all, Rudiger wasn't just managing the

13:25

fans. He was straight up pushing the

13:27

Cambosian police back to make sure Speed

13:29

had room to breathe. We shut the whole

13:31

country

13:33

down. You got the Cambodian police right

13:36

here. This shit's beautiful, man. This

13:39

[ __ ] is beautiful, dog. Rudiger knew he

13:41

might have been crossing the line. After

13:43

all, they were in a foreign country,

13:45

surrounded by unfamiliar faces and rules

13:47

they weren't exactly used to. But he

13:49

didn't hesitate. He wasn't there to take

13:51

the easy way out. He was there to do his

13:53

job and keep the person he was

13:55

protecting safe. That moment during the

13:57

42 million subscriber celebration truly

13:59

captured it all. Henry and Rudiger

14:01

aren't just hard muscle. They are loyal,

14:04

always dependable, and fully committed.

14:06

In a world that moves fast, they're the

14:08

ones who will always stand by speed,

14:10

protecting him with everything they've

14:12

got, no matter the cost. Just as loyal

14:14

is Slips. He's the man that's always

14:16

behind the camera running the operation.

14:19

His story is fascinating. Click on this

14:21

video to find out how he met Speed and

14:23

when he even had to become a bodyguard

14:25

himself.
