Popular YouTuber and influencer IShowSpeed has given water polo a try — in none other than Split, Croatia, with local club POŠK.
The viral internet star, known for his high-energy personality and spontaneous antics, visited the historic Croatian city and took to the pool for a water polo training session. Guided by players from POŠK, one of Croatia’s most respected water polo clubs, Speed jumped in headfirst — literally and figuratively — to try his hand at the demanding sport.
In the video (embedded below), Speed can be seen donning a cap, treading water, learning the basics of passing, and even attempting a shot at goal. His reaction to the physicality and difficulty of the sport was both humorous and genuine.
POŠK, based in Split, is a club with deep roots in Croatian water polo history. For them to welcome such a global personality was a great moment to spotlight the sport to a wider, younger audience.
Water polo fans praised the collaboration, hoping it would help boost the sport’s visibility online.
