Sky News Presenter Under Fire
Jayne Secker, a Sky News presenter, faced backlash after belittling the achievement of 13-year-old gamer Willis Gibson, who made history by beating the classic game Tetris.
Small-Minded Remarks
Secker’s comments advising Gibson to ‘go outside and get some fresh air’ drew criticism for being dismissive of the monumental gaming feat.
Despite her recent praise for teenage darts sensation Luke Littler, her stance on Gibson’s accomplishment sparked outrage.
Outrage on Social Media
Gamers and commentators on social platforms condemned Secker’s statement as ‘smug’ and ‘mean-spirited.’ Comparisons were drawn to the praise given to the teenage darts players, highlighting a perceived double standard.
Gibson’s Remarkable Feat
Gibson achieved a ‘True Killerscreen’ in Tetris, reaching level 157, a feat previously believed only attainable by AI.
His dedication to the game, practicing for hours daily since the age of 11, culminated in this historic accomplishment.
Tetris: A Timeless Game
The game Tetris, created in 1984 by a Soviet engineer and introduced in the US in 1988, remains a global sensation.
Gibson’s achievement adds a new chapter to its enduring legacy, with over half a billion downloads on mobile devices alone.
Gibson’s Emotional Victory
During a live stream on his YouTube channel, the intense concentration and eventual triumph of stacking blocks led Gibson to exclaim ‘Oh my God!’ as he realized he had reached the game’s final state.
The emotional victory was dedicated to his late father.
Resilience and Dedication
In interviews, Gibson shared his struggles and nerves during the game, highlighting the dedication and determination behind his historic achievement.
His remarkable win stands as a testament to his perseverance and love for the game.
