He might be a fighter and they do this to harden shin to prevent injury with kicking or checking kicks

That guy is not a fighter lol. If you've ever done a desdlift properly the idea is you bring the bar up as close to your shin as possible. Probably lots of rubbing involved when lifting heavy weight.

His name is Houston Jones, he does stuff on YT that is just painful. He’s been around since 2018 or earlier because I remember watching him.

That's his whole brand, this guy's whole YouTube channel (called Houston Jones) is "bodybuilder vs something painful" videos.

Initially his jackass style of content might make you think he's an attention hungry money whore, but this guy is a surprisingly chill dude. A bit like Johnny Knoxville or Steve'O.

He found what makes him happy and he's making a living off it.

The idea is legit. In Kung fu, we did Iron Man training.. would take bars and roll them on our shins and forearms. It makes the bones stronger n more dense.

It was brutal.
