Will Smith Posts Behind-the-Scenes Video of His Epic 'In My Feelings' Challenge: 'Drake Almost Got Me Killed'

Will Smith didn’t just hop on the social media trend of doing the Shiggy to Drake’s now Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 song “In My Feelings”; he claims he almost died doing it. The epic “In My Feelings” clip from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum debuted on Instagram last week (July 12), garnering attention from his son Jaden Smith (“You killed this”) and the 6 God himself (“Wow the video is done”), as he climbed on the very top of a bridge in Budapest for the video.

In a new YouTube video posted this week, which is titled "Drake Almost Got Me Killed," Smith advises fans, “Do not attempt the stunts depicted in this video under any circumstances.” Taking the challenge to new heights was “social media stupidity,” as he mentions in a title credit in the beginning of the video. His video crew, who are gathered in the Four Seasons lobby at 4:30 a.m., discusses how Smith caught a “bridge bug” in Sydney, and as he approached his last day in Budapest, he had to do something big.

“We’re going up the Chain Bridge and this is definitely stupid,” Smith said to camera. “Is this legal? Did anybody check with legal?”

As they waited to hear back, Smith claims they’re still doing it and “It’s not legal.” He mounts the bridge with his crew as the line “Kiki, do you love me?” starts playing in the background. Once his actual “In My Feelings” challenge clip starts playing, Smith layered screenshots of the major news outlets who covered his initial viral clip.

“Let’s get the hell out of here before the police come,” Smith said.
