Drop everything and watch this 312-pound Alabama lineman hurdle an entire human to block a kick


Via CBS
That’s A’Shawn Robinson, horrifying Alabama defensive tackle who’s apparently very good at jumping.
Not only did he clear the LSU line with total ease, he had enough spring left in him to pop right back up and consume the football. That might sound easy, but bringing that much thunder down onto mere earth would result in a crater for most, or at least a flat landing. Robinson maintained enough body control to make himself light as a feather.
The only solution here is to never kick an extra point, I guess.
“He always wanted to win the Heisman,” his sister has said. “That was his thing.”
Probably not, but we have another trophy he’s up for now. (The award’s supposed to be for offense-y stuff, but his hand touched the ball, and you’re not my real dad.)
