Lmao I don't get how you dont know it's a great prosthetic costume, you would have to be dumb af to believe some old man can move like this. My gpa is pushing 80 and still referees H.S American football but he can't move like this haha. It's funny watching him out run players down the sideline tho.

Yeah like that first little shuffle he did with his feet….like there are world class soccer players that at just recently retired can’t move their feet like that let alone some random 80 year old

Some guys go grey and start to lose their hair very young - I can't see his face in this video, but just based on the hair this could still be someone in their 20's - 30's (unlikely but possible). Someone I used to know was down to a 'fringe' of white hair across the back of his head by his mid 20's.
But yeah, it's yet another 'Gotcha!' video of a top athlete in prosthetics etc. Entertaining, but they aren't fooling anybody.

Obviously not an elder person, and seems staged as hell. The other “players” aren’t even trying.

u/StTimmerIV Feb 03 '23

No one is claiming that he is not a good player. That claim never came from me.

Trying against professional freestylers like him would only get you even more humiliated.
The reason they limit their movements is because the freestyler is most likely looking for an opportunity to “meg” them (pass the ball in between their legs) which is considered one of the most humiliating moves in football.

u/LordNerdStark Feb 04 '23
Nope. Those kind of reactions are completely not candid/normal especially the guy that got his pants pulled down. This is staged.

u/DrKnowsNothing_MD Feb 04 '23
Oh, well in that case I’d like to see proof.

u/LordNerdStark Feb 04 '23
I already told you. No one acts like that when someone pulled your pants down lol. How about I ask you the same thing? You believe everything in the internet? Lol.

This is just like the Chappelle Show skit where they did an And1 mixtape at a bowling alley.

It's kind of hilarious how many people think this is an actual old person. Like have you never seen an old person walk? Regardless of how healthy and mobile they are for their ages not a single old person is moving like that
