Jarryd Hayne, a rugby league star for the Parramatta Eels, New South Wales Blues and Australia, will never have reason to repeat what he did in the video above in an actual match, but let that take nothing away from the ridiculousness of an effort that almost defies the laws of physics. Amazing.
It just about surpasses Dan Carter’s banana shot as the most impressive kick we’ve seen with an oval ball…
