Davis Clarke - a local TikTok star and motivational speaker - has gone viral for all the wrong reasons after appearing to soil himself during the Boston Marathon in a post-race video.
On Monday, the 27-year-old Winchester native filmed himself after completing the 26.2-mile-long annual marathon event, as he told fans he was 'locked in' despite not training at all before race day.
'Gave it everything that I have for the people,' Clarke said at first in the clip posted on his Instagram profile before he revealed his time.
'2:56. I s**t my pants like crazy. I'm going after it. All day, every day for the people.'
As he told his followers that he pooped himself while competing, Clarke lowered his phone's camera to show evidence supporting his claim while he was crouching.

Barstool host Jeff Lowe reacted to Clarke's video going viral by tweeting: 'Opened Instagram for the first time today and the first thing I saw was that Davis Clark locked-in guy with s**t running down the side of his legs after he pooped himself during the Boston Marathon.
'Good stuff,' he added.
Clarke, who has over 3.2million views on TikTok and 631,000 followers on Instagram, frequently shares chronicles of his everyday life as a 'locked in' go-getter in Boston's Financial District. He shares everything from his commute to work to sneaking in an early morning workout.
'Overall, I just want to try to do good things,' he told Bosto.com in March. 'Maybe at some points I do get too excited, too energetic, or I'm talking too much. But really, it's all well-intentioned at the end of the day, and I never mean to hurt anyone.'

Good stuff.
Clarke now works at Citizens but had a stint at Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., before landing his current banking job. He graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a Bachelor of Business Administration, as he studied finance.
'...Still definitely finding my way in my career, still trying to figure out what life is all about,' Clarke said of his journey. 'Just going through the process and trying to have fun every step of the way.'
He started making videos during the COVID-19 lockdown. The idea came from one of his brothers.
'We started doing these workouts with our friends just down at the Winchester track, lots of really good people we'd grown up with,' Clarke explained to Bostom.com. 'And we just said, ''Hey, we want to just inspire America.'''
