YouTuber and IRL streaming personality Darren "IShowSpeed" has recently claimed yet again that he had met with legendary actor Jackie Chan while the camera was not rolling. The 20-year-old streamer made the claim on his first broadcast following his IRL tour of China and Mongolia, held on April 20, 2025.
According to Speed, he could not capture a photo of his meeting with Jackie Chan. While that means having no proof of the two having ever met, the streamer stated that he preferred it to be that way. Claiming that he felt inspired after meeting Jackie Chan, Speed said:
"And it was off-camera, and I am glad it was no picture, bro. I'm glad. I'm glad it was like that, I swear to God. I'm glad it was like that, 'cause, everything was just like super inspiring, bro. Jackie really inspired me."

"I swear to God I met him": IShowSpeed claims that he and Jackie Chan met off-camera in latest broadcast
IShowSpeed began his tour of China and Mongolia on March 24, 2025, spending his first day in Shanghai, China. The streamer spent the next few weeks exploring various regions of the country and visiting different cities while experiencing and showcasing the local culture.
Speed had been talking about his potential meeting with Jackie Chan throughout the duration of the tour, claiming multiple times that arrangements were being made to bring their collaboration to fruition.
The streamer finally concluded his IRL streaming tour with a broadcast from Mongolia on April 11, 2025. That's when he stated he had met with Jackie Chan off-camera, and he used the word "inspiring" to describe their interaction then as well.
In his latest broadcast, while reiterating that he had met with Jackie Chan, IShowSpeed also asked his audience whether he could take on Hong Kong rapper Jackson Wang in a fight, with the two having met up previously in Shanghai:
"I swear to God I met him (referring to Jackie Chan)... Chat! In a real fight, who winning? In a real fight, who winning y'all? Me or Jackson, bro?"
While the China and Mongolia IRL broadcasts boosted IShowSpeed's popularity exponentially and connected him with his audience in China, there were some controversial moments. For instance, the streamer was met with a fierce crowd while in Shanghai, which caused concerns for his safety. He was also called the N-word live on stream by some stream snipers.
