Will Smith has always done it big, so when he shot his video for the “In My Feelings” challenge, he showed exactly why the world knows him as “Big Willie.”
During his last night in Budapest, where he is filming his latest film Gemini Man, Will decided to shut down the viral craze by doing the impossible and climbing atop a bridge in the luxurious city.
“There is no way this is legal,” Smith said as he climbed the small metal stairs before entering a door and climbing to the top with his camera in hand.
“I’ma Keep It ?… I was TERRIFIED up there,” Will said in the video caption. “That’s why my dance moves is all STIFF! Haha.”
Will’s challenge not only received praises from fans, but Drake himself commented on the Fresh Prince’s video saying that the “video is done.”
Over the last year, Will Smith has garnered a lot of attention on social media for his vlogging ability and with his latest take on the “Do the Shiggy” challenge and recreation of his son Jaden’s video “Icon”, it’s evident that isn’t the last time that we will see Big Willie dropping the mic and making our day.
During a recent interview with TIDAL’s Rap Radar podcast, the icon opened up about his emergence as a social media star.
“Social media demands authenticity,” said Smith. “Social media pushes you more and more into having you reveal what’s true. ‘Cause if you don’t, TMZ is going to. It’s a beautiful thing. I’m actually enjoying the push. Nobody’s happy that doesn’t get to be themselves. I’m enjoying the social demand for authenticity.”
