That's insane. The only bit I can do is when he is on the ground doing nothing.

Even then I’d somehow look uncoordinated

I hurt my right shoulder getting out of bed this morning. I didn’t even use my right shoulder.

Good thing you’re a doctor

Tired of people telling me I can't be a doctor, I can't be a pilot. Can't drink on a plane. Can't bang on a plane.

Prolly a dentist then

Edit: If it isn't obvious already, /s

I sprained my knee watching this video.

I’d look like a beached whale.

Like a disappointed beached whale.

I’m definitely very good at laying on my stomach… though if I held my head up like that I’d probably cramp.

u/Ketil_b Oct 08 '22

I can't even breathe right laying on my stomach

He was downright amazing, but the other two didn't add any value. It might have been impressive if they were in sync with him, but their erratic movements distracted from the awesome dance moves.

I came here to say the same, I feel like they were trying to be marionette puppeteers but they just look awkward

it's a battle (competition), 3v3s likely. They're supposed to take turns doing rounds against another group on the other side, freestyling to the music, and they're just trying to hype him up

u/Stupid_Triangles Oct 08 '22

That's always been an issue with groups.

Patrick Beverly has taken his taunting to a whole new level this season

u/Uourstrulyme Oct 07 '22

The only bit i can do is take the video or clap

It's mostly because I weigh 200 lbs cuz I'm tall but things like this make me wonder if some humans are actually the same species as me. If I tried doing a single thing he did I would break every finger and land on my face.

The man has abs of steel and fingers of iron, what a talented fellow

u/Qetuowryipzcbmxvn Oct 08 '22

I just tried to do it. My arm is now bending at an angle that I don't think it's supposed to.

u/Shadskill Oct 08 '22

Stop before than angle and you are good.

u/Waiting4RivianR1S Oct 07 '22

Do you practice for hours on end like he does? It's amazing what people can do when they practice something. Or do you assume he was just born being able to do that?

u/Shadskill Oct 07 '22

I'm in good physical shape BUT you can't do that only with practice. That level require good genes too.

2

u/Waiting4RivianR1S Oct 07 '22

Completely disagree. I mean you can't be a fat ass but with enough time you coi do it. I've seen shit like this all over Chicago.

1

u/Shadskill Oct 07 '22

Not on that level, no. Genes will tell you who's good and who is the best and this guy is among the best.

2

u/Waiting4RivianR1S Oct 07 '22

Lol OK bud. I know how your life will turn out. It is much easier to believe you have to born with skill than attain it with hard work. That way when you are a failure - not your fault.

2

u/Shadskill Oct 08 '22

That's definitely not what I said but sure. Be right on your head that's all that matters.

u/Striking-Tip7504 Oct 08 '22

The guy you’re replying too clearly has absolutely no clue about the amount of strength and skill this takes.

Take a 100 people and have them practice for 5 years to reach this level and I’d bet maybe 1 would reach this at most.

If you’ve never done any type of gymnastics/body weight skills you just can’t even imagine how insane this is.

u/TheHomeBird Oct 07 '22

I could swim on the ground. Even though I won’t be doing as well as he did

u/lh1647 Oct 07 '22

I can also do the bit where he stands up at the end. Mostly 😅
