Sometimes, if you want to go viral, you really have to put the work in. 

Well, credit where credit"s due — much like the guy who live-streamed himself saying "gucci gang" a million times, the man below has to receive a fair bit of praise for his sheer level of dedication alone. This time the object of obsession isn"t a Lil Pump song, it"s the latest Marvel blockbuster.

It all started on 28 April, when Infinity War was released in cinemas. As you can tell from the following tweet, YouTuber Nem (the hero of our tale) enjoyed his first viewing quite a bit.

Avengers Infinity War:
10/10 about to go watch again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again
... And again

The thing is, that wasn"t just an excitable reaction. Nem"s actually been good to his word. Over the following days and weeks, he did indeed go back to see Infinity War again... and again... and again...

Wow. Even better the 2nd time. Can"t wait to watch again tonight

Debating on whether or not I watch it for a 4th time 2moro, or spend actual time with my family :/

By this point, some people were beginning to suspect foul play. But Nem has insisted that he really is watching the film each time he tweets about it.

Nem appears to be an unstoppable, Infinity War-watching force. We"re not going to post every single photo, but most days since the film"s release he"s tweeted about going to see it.

At some point he even acquired a cute little folder to keep track of all his tickets.

Finally, on viewing number 42, Nem went truly viral.

His tweets have now been featured in a Twitter Moment, and covered in the likes of Comicbook.

On Wednesday, Nem celebrated in the perfect way — a 43rd viewing of Infinity War.

Okay, so the obvious question is: why? Surely nobody loves a film that much, do they?

Mashable has reached out to Nem, and we"ll update this article if we receive a response. But if we had to guess, we"d say he"s probably treating the whole thing as a kind of experiment — possibly with the view to making a video on his channel, possibly to try and get noticed by Marvel. Maybe simply to see how viral he can go. Or maybe he just loves the movie?

FAQS:
1. Where do you get most of your shirts? @SuperHeroStuff @HotTopic and @Target
2. You must have @MoviePass right? No, I don"t. They"ve updated their service. You can"t watch the same film more than once.
3. Why? Why not?
4. Can we be friends? Yes, yes we can.

Whatever the motive, Nem is refusing to let sceptics get in his way.

There are other movies.

And it doesn"t sound like he"ll be stopping anytime soon...

What an odd number to stop at. What"d ya run out of money?

Godspeed, Nem.
