Jens "Knossi" Knossalla takes part in the RTL high diving.
The twitch streamer is already reaching his limits during training – does the event break him completely?
Berlin – On the evening of June 3, the RTL high diving event will take place, with dozens of celebrities presenting their athletic skills.
The TV presenter and Twitch streamer Jens "Knossi" Knossalla will be there.
Before the event, the 35-year-old is in hard training.
He presents his progress on YouTube and reaches his limits in the process.
His fear threatens to gain the upper hand and endangers his participation in the RTL high diving – this is how Knossi is doing during training.

Knossi: Training for RTL tower jumping - painful landings for Twitch streamers
RTL high diving:
On June 3rd, the RTL high diving will be broadcast live from the swimming and diving hall in Europastadtpark Berlin.
From 8:15 p.m. you can watch the spectacle on TV on RTL or in the live stream on RTL+.
If you miss the RTL high diving, you can watch the event afterwards in the RTL+ media library.
A total of 20 celebrities compete against each other in individual and synchronized competitions - these were of course prepared by professional trainers before the show.
Knossi has also undergone the strict training.

What happened?
At the big RTL high diving on Friday evening, Knossi will also present his skills.
But even during training it becomes clear that Knossi is probably not made of the right stuff.
"
There must also be things that I just can't do
" is his conclusion even before the show on June 3rd.
And not without reason.
While the "Ninja Warrior" athlete Stefanie Edelmann tries to prepare Knossi for relatively uncomplicated acrobatics, the twitch streamer - no matter how he jumps off - always lands on his back.
Perhaps Knossi should rather stay in his hometown of Baden-Baden.
Knossi: RTL high diving will be a huge challenge – "The hardest thing I've ever done"
This is what it looks like:
"
It's the hardest thing I've ever done,"
says the 35-year-old tearfully, while standing at the edge of the pool with a very red back.
Also, his twitch chat tells him that he definitely needs to jump better to be able to snatch anything on Friday night.
While a number of fans make fun of Knossi, many also try to persuade him and give him tips for his jumps in Berlin.
If you want to convince yourself of Knossi's lack of talent, you should watch this video.
That's what the fans say:
Knossi has to get rid of his fans and says that no tips will help.
"
If before every jump you get afraid of height, fall, impact, water doesn't help...
", the desperate streamer writes in response to his YouTube video.
However, one comment has caught his attention: "
Alcohol
".
A fan of Knossi recommends the entertainer to get drunk before the show to overcome the fear.

Whether Knossi actually drinks a bottle of algae before the RTL high jump is up to him.
However, it is certain that the show will have some - let's call it - jumps worth seeing.
Hopefully we won't hear after the RTL high diving that Knossi has been declared dead.
But his concerns about drowning and possible residues in the swimming trunks are unlikely to come true.
At the moment one hears less from Knossi and his last project was also less well received.
Knossi's promotional video with OBI flops with the fans.
