Brazilian man becomes greatest grocery shopper of all time (Video)

Soccer is religion in Brazil, so it’s no surprise everyone knows how to juggle.

Grocery shopping will never be the same again. A Brazilian man was caught on camera doing three perfect kick-ups to save one of his items from hitting the floor, proving once and for all why Americans should embrace the beautiful game. It has practical applications, too.

The man drops what looks to be a canned product and rather than let it drop, he beautifully kicks it back into his bag. He uses his left foot to kick the item back over to his right, then a nice touch with his right foot sets up the finish where he uses the heel of his right foot to hit it up above his head. After that last touch he is able to turn and catch the can with his bag.

Imagine the same thing happening in, like, Colorado. An average Joe is walking out with his groceries and he drops a can of something. There is no way he is able to string together three perfect touches to prevent it from crashing to the floor. A spill would be certain, likely with some expletives added in.

The man clearly has some soccer experience. If not, get him on a field now. We can see the headlines now: “Manchester United place bid for internet sensation from Brazil.” With United needing more depth ahead of next season, this Brazilian may have timed his claim to fame perfectly. Who better to continue Bebe’s United legacy?
