Don't have so much of a problem if that's the case. TV shows tend to deal responsibly with the aftermath of stunts - otherwise they'd end up on the receiving end of a blasting from the appropriate authorities.

He's never been arrested and always explained afterwards. However you don't see that as that's not part of the fun, it'd be boring otherwise Besides he never puts anyone in danger or at risk of injury unlike a lot of other prank shows - harmless fun, even if it was only home movies. For me it's totally innocuous.

As you say, we had no way of knowing. To the 'un-educated' it looks at times like some random being a complete (if skillful) prat with a football.

Meh - each to their own. I'd find it funny anyway, I guess some people are just wound up more tightly than others

I very much enjoyed that, whether he's going it for TV or not is irrelevant

C'est plus que de l'humour

Some of his other videos you guys may have seen before - one that springs to mind is the Rocky one which was passed around forums a fair bit.

I loved it The skills that he has are amazing, and to be honest it does just seem like harmless fun, and no one was really in danger

He is a legend!

I enjoyed it. Impressive skills. I don't think it would take a guy on tv to inspire kids to kick a football at someone. They're dumb but they have enough of a brain to know that they can kick a ball.

Unless they're Top Gear/JC, where they do in fact just piss off before anyone sees with some of their stunts.
