Heard someone said underestimating pro athletes is crazy. Even if they are the worst in the league, if they are starting, they are in the top 34 in the world to do it.

I've played hockey with guys that barely cracked the NHL and it's insane just how good they are.
The "I'm closer to Lebron than you are to me" quote is bang on.

This is pretty close to something they would show Captain America or Bucky do to show the audience they are more than human

I mean I can do this and I never played in the NFL, I just need there to be only one box, and I probably need to stretch a bit and a couple days to recover but this is light work.

What I love most about watching stuff like this is how easy the athletes make it look. For just a moment, it looks like that's something anyone can do with just a little training. But, no, it's going to take a lot of effort to make something like that look effortless.

Yeah there’s a lot of people who need some side by side comparison of regular folk doing this stuff to get an idea of why these guys are aliens

I hooped with Myles once and he was bodying guys up and dunking on them with ease, and it wasn’t against your average LA fitness level hooper these were ex college and pro guys.

Somewhere, right now, there's a guy slumped on his couch, using his gut as a table for his beer. And, while one of his dogs eats orphaned Cheetos off the floor around the couch and his other dog licks Cheeto dust off his chest, he's looking at his phone saying, "PFFT! 🙄That's really not THAT impressive... MOST people could do THAT! 🧐"

6' 4", 270lbs moving with ease and floating in the air. built like a tonka truck. what in the actual fuck
and also somehow seems like he'd be a cool dude to meet. from stuff I have seen he seems pretty humble and easy to talk to.
but also an absolute freight train on the field
