9-year-old “ninja“ becomes social media star
Tengrinews.kz - A 9-year-old American boy, Easton Fletcher, has captured the hearts of millions of viewers by competing on the show "Barbados Ninja Throwdown."
The young social media hero completed the challenging obstacle course in 1 minute and 43 seconds. The video featuring Fletcher has garnered 225 million views on Instagram.
"Not every adult can do that!" "I watched it in one breath," "When I was his age, I cried because my shadow followed me."
"Where did they find this kid?" "My hands got tired just watching him," fans comment on the video.
Even last year, the boy's skills were recognized on social media. His father, Chris, built an obstacle course in their own yard and shared his son's achievements online.
