A $470 million American superstar has joined in on the latest viral sensation to help raise funds and awareness for Australian bushfires.

Newbury, 29, shared a video on his Instagram account to his 122,000 followers showing off the ‘Koala Bear challenge’ which requires participants to climb around a gym bench without touching the ground.

The company is donating a percentage of all sales directly to the bushfire appeals and have partnered with Newbury by asking followers to attempt the challenge. Every post would see the company donate more money “directly to the efforts of Australian wildlife protection services”. As Harper’s video begins everyone in the background at the gym stop and marvel at his feats as he manages to navigate around the bench, despite the head knock to kick things off.

Harper joins a long line of athletes to do their part to help raise much needed funds for the devastating fires in Australia.
