Teen Tries To Kick Boxing Arcade Game

If you’re the kind of person who roams aimlessly around YouTube at 2 AM, you may have seen a certain video of a teenager delivering a spinning roundhouse kick to a boxing arcade game. I know I have, and I’m impressed every time I see it. Doing something like that requires strength, balance, and aim. Apparently this kid saw that video as well, because he got it in his head to try and replicate this epic maneuver.

You can tell this is doomed from the start; the kid’s got no stance, and he’s barely even looking at the machine. Nevertheless, he walks up to the machine and prepares to make his move. This is where he made his next mistake: a roundhouse kick requires you to spin horizontally.

The kid doesn’t try to build any momentum, he merely swings his foot upward in the general direction of the bag. Unsurprisingly, he misses it by a country mile and flops onto the ground like a dodo while his friends laugh at him. Next time, sport, learn some basic martial arts before you try to show off. And maybe also don’t try to imitate YouTube videos, that should go without saying.
