HAHA, that is totally faked. I know for a fact that speedtest.net will not correctly deal with speeds over 1 gigabits and will not report them.
Here is a link to a valid speedtest.net speedtest:
I am guessing that the connection was really doing about 700 kilobits from the position of the hand in the speed test (which wouldn't be like that if it had already completed?
The fastest speeds I have seen on torrents is about 30 megabytes/sec download (250 megabits) which was I/O limited due to the randomness of the writes and 600 megabits up (seeding).

Not only that but there is no network card that goes beyond 1Gbps and yet it shows going over that.
One thing I have to say about this
HAX!!!!!

That is not exactly true. Although very expensive there are 10 gigabit NICs but either way it is indeed faked. I also seriously doubt any of the speed test servers are on >1 gigabit and the tokyo speedtest server completely sucked (atleast when I lived in Japan).
Here is an example of one such place you can get servers with 10 gig NICs:

This is my home connection

Lol what? There are 10Gbit NICs, but yeah they are expensive.

Is your server 10Gbit? Get a 10Gbit one and see what speedtests it outputs. I see no reason why it wouldn't report anything other than 1Gbit, unless the server you are connecting to isn't 10Gbit. If the speedtest server is 10Gbit, it should report higher than 1.

When I look up Softbank BB I get a corporate office
So he cheated and did it from work lmao

I suggest you read up on SoftBank. It is possible it was done via work, but SoftBank also gives residential connections of over 1Gbit.

They, and I would trust your results if you give your valid SpeedTest.net given Image URL to this forum. It can be only trusted by using valid SpeedTest.net hosted result image.
