Awesome, gross or both? Either way, it’s impressive.
Felix Passlack, an 18-year-old who plays for German powerhouse Borussia Dortmund, captured the internet’s attention this week by turning soccer and gum-chewing into some bizarre new sport.
Behold Passlack atop this post spitting out his gum, uncorking an impressive juggling routine for more than 10 seconds, then casually catching the gum in his mouth and resuming his mastication as if nothing ever happened.
That’s, um … cool? He even tries and fails to catch the gum once, then resumes juggling before completing the maneuver without his wad ever touching the ground.
Amazingly enough, Passlack’s not even the first pro footballer to perform the feat this week. Here’s Dimitri Payet of West Ham juggling his own gum before a match over the weekend.
Apparently this is soccer’s most unsanitary new trend? Further bulletins as events warrant.
