Video taking off 5.4x its usual first day

Bob Reese turns a chair into a floor-is-lava pogo stick

His first-person gym challenge has passed a million views, with viewers debating the conveniently placed chairs and a supposedly essential Griddy.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 943,303 views a day, 5.4 times a normal first day on this channel (173,923).

FLOOR IS LAVA 🔥FLOOR IS LAVA 🔥

Bob Reese has cleared a million views without being allowed to touch the floor. His Short, "FLOOR IS LAVA 🔥", turns a gym into an obstacle course where even the foam pit presents a rules question.

Does it count as the floor? Reese decides not to risk it. Instead, he travels along rails and wooden structures, leaps to a hanging metal bar and works his way onto the narrow top of a high wall. The first-person camera makes the route the story: the next place to put a foot isn't always an obvious one.

The Short's estimated first-day views were more than five times his usual start. For a creator whose longer videos include backflip tutorials and parkour lessons, this is the playful application of those skills: a childhood game with a much more demanding route.

Then come the folding chairs. A row of them offers a handy crossing, but not quite enough of one, so Reese starts hopping with a single chair beneath him like a pogo stick.

Viewers are picking up on the comedy between the athletic moves. The conveniently positioned chairs get knowing mentions, while several commenters insist that his Griddy was an entirely necessary part of the journey. Reese still has a hanging paper sign marked "THE END" to reach.
