Global streaming sensation IShowSpeed made a surprise splash in Split during his Croatian tour by jumping into a water polo session at the iconic Zenta pool with some young POSK players—and quickly learning the hard way just how demanding the sport really is.
With millions of followers watching live, Speed joined a group of young players in the pool for what turned out to be a hilarious and humbling experience.
As soon as he got hold of the ball, Speed blurted out the now-viral line:
“How am I supposed to chach ti and swim with it?”
Mixing up Croatian and English in his typical chaotic style, the line had the crowd in stitches—but also perfectly captured the essence of water polo: it’s not easy.
From Assist to Exhaustion
Despite the struggle, Speed managed to dish out a slick assist to one of his teammates, helping set up a goal. The crowd erupted, and Speed celebrated in true Speed fashion—until the fatigue kicked in.
Overwhelmed by the physical demands of the game, he had to be helped back to the edge of the pool, gasping and laughing in disbelief.
But Speed wasn’t done. After catching his breath, he got a chance to take a penalty shot, proudly saying:
“Like Ronaldo!”
He buried the shot and celebrated as if he’d won a Champions League final—signature screams and all.
A Massive Boost for Water Polo
What started as a funny detour turned into a huge promotional moment for water polo. One of the world’s biggest online personalities gave the sport an authentic spotlight—not through a polished ad or PR campaign, but by feeling the sport’s intensity first-hand. Speed’s short time in the pool proved one thing: water polo is no joke. It requires strength, stamina, and constant awareness—all while treading water. For fans watching, it was both entertaining and eye-opening.
