i mean i could see still competing after POOPING all over yourself

The video likely worked due to its unexpected and absurd premise, using humor and shock value to grab attention. The relatable (though exaggerated) comparison to a well-known fitness event like HYROX creates a memorable and shareable piece of content.

The creator humorously compares the absurdity of a hypothetical competition involving pooping oneself to the intensity of the HYROX fitness competition. She questions if HYROX itself is a competition that could be won even under such extreme and unhygienic circumstances.

HYROX: a fitness competition that involves running and functional fitness exercises. It ACTS as the subject of the video's discussion, and removing it would change the video's topic entirely.
