13-Year-Old Achieves First-Ever Human Victory in Classic Tetris Game

Willis Gibson, a 13-year-old from Oklahoma, has reportedly become the first person to beat the classic Nintendo video game Tetris, reaching level 157 and causing the game to crash. This achievement, captured in a video on his YouTube channel, overturns the long-held belief that Tetris was only playable up to level 29. Gibson, who has been playing Tetris since he was 11 and has competed in gaming tournaments, also claims to have broken the overall score and three other world records for the game.
