IShowSpeed was escorted by 100 police officers during his ongoing tour and the clip has gone viral on social media.
On January 28, 2025, Darren “IShowSpeed” traveled to Lima, the capital of Peru, and had an incredible experience. The YouTuber met with Rafael López Aliaga, the city’s current mayor, who had invited him to attend the celebrations of the city’s 490th anniversary.
In addition to giving Speed the Ambassador of Lima Award, the mayor also presented him with a document, which temporarily promoted the streamer to the position of Mayor of Lima. Tens of thousands of fans had been waiting for the streamer outside the government building, and riot-gear police were sent in to maintain order.

Later, as fans continued to chase the YouTuber along the streets, IShowSpeed was even granted a motorcade of police bikes as an escort across the city. On social media, videos showing multiple police bikes escorting the streamer’s van have created a frenzy. Speed also joked that it felt like having a five-star wanted level in GTA.
IShowSpeed Says There Is More To Come
IShowSpeed has been taking his streams on the road for the past year. He has been visiting his fans in various places across continents. He has traveled to Asia, Australia, and Europe for the UEFA European Championships. These streams have also been somewhat unpredictable. Thousands of followers have surrounded Speed, causing him to have run-ins with the authorities over public safety and spend thousands of dollars on damages to rental cars.
So far, his trip to Peru has been the wildest. He was greeted by over 20,000 admirers when he was elected mayor of Lima for an hour. Additionally, he performed a backflip in front of them. However, after this stream, IShowSpeed took to X, telling his fans that he was just warming up, suggesting that there is more to come. His post on X read:
“just warming up”
