Their only new upload of the week reverses the footage to see who looks more athletic.

gabe actually did pretty good hahah 💀 the running backwards challenge!
Gabriel adjusts his hat mid-stride; Jess skips and waves her hands. Neither is demonstrating a conventional sprint. Their new Short turns backward running into forward motion by reversing the footage, with entertainingly unnatural results.
The on-screen challenge is to see who looks most athletic, and the title gives Gabriel a vote of confidence: "gabe actually did pretty good hahah 💀 the running backwards challenge!" There is no spoken commentary, just a country-flavored instrumental accompanying their driveway attempts. In the comments, viewers pick apart the arm-and-leg coordination and wonder whether long hair makes the illusion harder to pull off.
That was Jess and Gabriel's sole upload this week, reaching roughly 18,000 views in its first 15 hours. It is also their fastest-moving video right now. The older "t-t-t-t-t-TARGET🎯" continues to add views, with "box…cutter☝🏽🤓" finding a smaller daily audience behind it.
Across the channel, the week brought about 66,000 views and an unchanged subscriber count. Daily viewing is below its usual level. Among nearby couples and family channels, JesssFam and Megan and Ben had much busier weeks, while Beyond Family is also running below its typical daily viewing.
For Jess and Gabriel, the new entry is a particularly compact piece of couple comedy: a driveway, a reverse edit and two very different ideas of what an athletic stride looks like.
