The Bodyguards That Made iShowSpeed Unstoppable
FULL TRANSCRIPT
There was a time not too long ago when I
show Speed's entire universe existed
within the four walls of a bedroom. One
chair, one monitor, one webcam that
falls off now and then. Back then, Speed
was loud, wild, and completely out of
control. But everything stayed in that
room. It was chaotic, but it was safe.
As the years passed by, Speed's fan base
didn't just grow. It exploded. And all
of a sudden, Speed wasn't just streaming
from his room anymore. He was stepping
outside into the real world where
everything is unpredictable. Speed soon
realized that he wasn't just meeting
fans anymore. The world outside wasn't
kind and it definitely wasn't safe. The
watch, bro. Who the [ __ ] is this, bro?
Get the [ __ ] the [ __ ] out of here, bro.
And if someone was mean, he couldn't
just ban them from chat. That's when
Speed realized that he desperately
needed protection. Not just from danger,
but from the chaos. And that's when
Henry and Rudiger stepped in. But these
weren't just regular bodyguards in black
shirts. They became a part of the I show
Speed family. If you ever tuned into a
Speed stream, you can see the chat
flooding with where's Henry or Rudiger W
safe? Because they weren't just keeping
Speed safe. They were keeping the entire
operation running. Some fans even say
Speed can't go live without them.
move. Hey, move out of the way.
But in Speed's world, it's not enough
just to be security. You've got to
become family. So, who exactly are Henry
and Rudiger? And what does it really
take to protect the wildest streamer in
the world? It all started during the FA
Cup 2023 finals when Speed was in the
crowd and decided to troll a Manchester
City fan. This guy in front of me is a
Man City fan. I'm about to troll him.
You don't care about Man City. It's Man
City. Imagine being a Man City fan. But
then all of a sudden, the fan finally
lost his patience and did something no
one expected. He fought back, but not
with his words. Hey, bro. Bro, what the
[ __ ]
Yo yo yo yo yo. Before anyone could
process it, the guy slaps the phone
right out of Speed's hand. Speed
security guard quickly jumped in, but
the damage was already done. The
bodyguard was quick, but that day he
wasn't quick enough. What the [ __ ] bro?
What did you just do, bro? In that split
second, Speed realized that something
had to change. Having bodyguards wasn't
enough. He didn't just need muscle. He
needed loyalty because next time it
could end with someone in the hospital.
And just a few days later, Speed was in
Turkey live streaming from the streets
of Estumble. This time though, he came
more prepared. Chad noticed a tall,
quiet figure always standing behind
Speed like his shadow. He didn't speak
much, but his eyes were always scanning
the background, taking in every detail,
ready for anything. And just like that,
without even saying a word, the world
was introduced to Henry. Henry wasn't
just a bodyguard. He looked like he'd
body you. Some say he doesn't blink.
Others say that Henry can sense a
sprinting fan before they even start
moving. Henry was so serious about his
job that he barely posted anything
personal on social media. All people
really knew was that he worked in the
UK, had experience protecting local
politicians, and had even worked with
the Sidemen and KSI. Beyond that, it
felt like he just appeared out of
nowhere, fully built for the job. But
Henry didn't need a backstory because
the internet wrote one for him. Parody
pages started popping up everywhere,
racking up thousands of likes with
edits, memes, and clips of him in
action. And honestly, after seeing him
do his job, it wasn't hard to see why.
Henry had arrived, and he wasn't playing
around. It didn't take long for Henry to
prove himself. He was there for Speed.
Even for the small things, like this one
time, Speed was trying to find something
to clean his phone screen with. And
without hesitation, Henry offered his
t-shirt. Yo, Chad, should I drop this
car?
[Music]
No. No. But Henry's job isn't always
that easy. Like during this Italy stream
when fans got too close to Speed's car
and Henry had to take things in his own
hands. To some, it looked like Henry
might have shoved a woman while trying
to protect Speed and the internet wasn't
happy. Soon after that, the streams got
way bigger. Fan interactions weren't
just awkward. They were getting
aggressive. And Speed realized that
although Henry had his back, he couldn't
be everywhere at once. He needed another
set of eyes. And that's when Rudiger
made his debut. While Speed was out
there streaming from Korea, Rudiger
wasn't just another guy in black trying
to hold back the crowd. He came with a
serious resume. Before ever stepping
into the unpredictable world of IRL live
streams, Rudiger had already made a name
of himself in Hollywood. He worked as a
professional stuntman, appearing in
major movies like Hopsson Chong, where
he handled the stunts and even shared
the set with Dwayne Duck Johnson. With a
towering frame and an intense, watchful
presence, Rudiger gave off the
impression of someone you'd never want
to cross. Now, here's the funny part.
You'd think his real name was Rudiger
because that's what everyone calls him,
but you couldn't be more wrong. His real
name is King Hercules, and honestly, it
suits him better. So, why does everyone
call him Rudiger? Well, it all started
in Speed's chat. When they first saw
him, they couldn't ignore the striking
resemblance to the German footballer
Antonio Rudiger.
Bro, they said you like Rutiger.
[Music]
They said you like Rutiger. Yeah. Yeah.
My chat. They said they they said your
bodyguard look like Rudiger. That is
crazy. And just like that, it became
more than a joke. It became his new
name. From then on, Rudiger was what
everyone knew him by. And eventually, he
simply became Rudy.
Rudiger soon became a core part of the
stream's universe. Just like Speed, his
reaction started taking the spotlight,
[Applause]
too. As he became a regular face on the
streams, something else changed, too.
Henry, who was once the stone, cold,
nononsense protector, began to loosen
up. Their dynamic went from just
security to more of a duo. one serious,
one lively, but both fully focused on
keeping the stream running and Speed
safe. This marked the beginning of a new
era in Speed's live streams. Henry, who
used to stand there like a living
security camera, actually started having
fun. He began doing things he'd never
done before. Like this one time during
this haunted house stream, Speed was
actually losing his mind. But little did
he know, the person scaring him was the
very man he hired to protect. Who did
this? Hold
diss where he at? Where's he at? He's
black. What the
[Music]
[ __ ] But as time passed, Speed gained
two big brothers he never knew he
needed. Speed's trust in them grew
stronger every day. After a wild horse
ride, when he wanted to get off, without
a second thought, Speed jumped straight
into Rudiger's arms. Wait, stop him.
Stop him. Get off. Stop him. Wait, let
me go on you.
Thank you. Yeah. And that wasn't the
only time the big brother energy kicked
in. When Speed was struggling with a tie
in China, Henry, just like an older
brother, stepped in and fixed it without
saying a word. And just like older
brothers, they weren't only there to
handle the crowds. They were also there
to protect Speed from himself. In one of
the China streams, when Speed joked
about jumping off a boat, Rudiger wasn't
impressed by the threat. But when Speed
actually doubled down and tried to jump,
Rudiger was more than prepared. I always
wanted to jump off of a boat.
Huh?
Even though Henry and Rudiger always had
Speed's back, one thing was clear. They
didn't treat him like he couldn't handle
things on his own. Take that one time in
China when Speed was choking on some
food.
[Music]
Hey, creeps up. Hey, creeps up. Most
people would have freaked out, but not
Henry and Rudiger. They just glanced at
each other, watched him for a second,
and let him handle it. They kept an eye
on him, but didn't feel the need to step
in. Henry and Rudiger might not always
be the center of attention, but trust
me, when they are not on screen, the
chat feels it.
Caught you lucky. I got him lucky. I
caught him lucky. It doesn't take long
for the messages to start pouring in
asking where they've gone. Take Rudiger
for example. When he was missing from
one of the streams, the chat started
blowing up wondering where he was. But
little did they know, Rudiger wasn't
slacking off. In fact, that day he was
behind the camera stepping in for slips
who was a bit under the weather. Where's
Rudiger? He's filming. I'll put the
camera to your face. and they keep
saying where you at. He's film man. This
just goes to show that Rudiger isn't
just a bodyguard. He plays multiple
roles behind the scenes. And it's not
just the Chad who's fan of Rudiger. He's
got his own following, especially in
China. What's up, Shiaon Shu? This is
Rudy here. I understand you guys are
giving me a nickname out here, Shia.
Just wanted to say share to everybody
that's
um showing me love out here and um this
is my official account so I will be
posting more. Thank you. While Speed's
the main character in China, Rudiger was
stealing his fair share of the
spotlight. While Speed was doing his
thing, Rudy was out there getting
attention of his own. Like this one time
in China when a woman asked to touch
Rudiger's muscles. He handled it like a
total pro. I love you both. You know, I
like your muscle. Can I touch your
muscle, please? Please, please. The
entrance. Oh my god. Oh my god. Rudy
might have the risk to charm the ladies,
but when it came to speed, he was no
match for his boss. Like this one time,
Rudy decided to raise speed, thinking he
could keep up. But speed showed Rudy
exactly why he got his name.
See, you better go.
You're so slow. You're so slow. No,
you're not. You so slow. You You lost. I
You lost. He lost, bro. He lost. Henry
and Rudy might be security, but they're
also human. Like many other celebrities,
Speed never seems to forget that. When
their workload isn't too heavy, they get
to have fun just like anyone else. Take
this one time in Singapore. With things
calm for a moment, Speed decided to live
stream something a little wild. Bungee
jumping.
Why am I doing with Henry? What am I
doing?
And of course, Henry and Rudy were all
in. Embracing the frill like the big
kids they are. Uh-oh. Hey, GG. That's
it.
That's it. Wait till you get all the way
up. That's it. Pull it. Oh. Oh [ __ ] Oh
[ __ ] Oh my god. Oh my god. I just Oh my
god. I thought I Oh my I bet I thought
they died. Oh my
god. Oh my god. Oh my god. My heart
dropped. No. My heart
dropped. It's moments like these that
show. Even though they're always on
duty, Speed knows how to make sure they
get to enjoy the ride, too. But not
every stream is all laughs and good
vibes. Sometimes the crowd gets a little
too crazy. And that's when Henry and
Rudy have to really lock in. And even
then, things don't always go as planned.
Like during that stream in Czech
Republic, things got chaotic fast and
Henry jumped in to shield speed from the
crowd. But in the chaos, he accidentally
pushed Speed himself, sending his head
straight into the camera.
Hey, watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
Oh, this is my head on the camera.
Got pushed into the camera.
Keep it clear. My head on the camera.
Even with all their experience, moments
like that just go to show that sometimes
things are just impossible to control.
But sometimes they have to go a little
overboard to keep things in check. Like
this one time a kid was banging on
Speed's car window way too hyped for his
own good. Rudiger didn't hesitate and
quickly stepped in. And well, let's just
say the kid got yeed away from Speed
real quick. Don't bang. Do not bang.
Don't bang. Don't bang. Don't bait.
It wasn't personal, just business.
Because when it comes to keeping speed
safe, Rudy's got zero hesitation. The
same energy carried over to Shang Sha,
China, where Rudiger wasn't letting
anything slide. He was locked in,
looking out like a hawk. There were
friends everywhere. And when one of them
got a bit too close for comfort, Rudy
was already on the case.
Where's
Anro? We got to meet you, Roach. We got
to find all. And if there was ever any
doubt about how far Rudiger is willing
to go for speed, just look at what
happened during his 32 million
celebration in Cambodia. The crowd was
packed shoulderto-shoulder, voices
screaming, phones in the air. The energy
was off the charts. In the middle of it
all, Rudiger wasn't just managing the
fans. He was straight up pushing the
Cambosian police back to make sure Speed
had room to breathe. We shut the whole
country
down. You got the Cambodian police right
here. This shit's beautiful, man. This
[ __ ] is beautiful, dog. Rudiger knew he
might have been crossing the line. After
all, they were in a foreign country,
surrounded by unfamiliar faces and rules
they weren't exactly used to. But he
didn't hesitate. He wasn't there to take
the easy way out. He was there to do his
job and keep the person he was
protecting safe. That moment during the
42 million subscriber celebration truly
captured it all. Henry and Rudiger
aren't just hard muscle. They are loyal,
always dependable, and fully committed.
In a world that moves fast, they're the
ones who will always stand by speed,
protecting him with everything they've
got, no matter the cost. Just as loyal
is Slips. He's the man that's always
behind the camera running the operation.
His story is fascinating. Click on this
video to find out how he met Speed and
when he even had to become a bodyguard
himself.
