Rory McIlroy took a selfie, one guy was WAY too excited to be included

It’s selfie time at the British Open and one man is AMPED to be there.

Rory McIlroy won the British Open, so naturally it was time for him to take a selfie. At this point we’ve hit “selfie inception” with photos of the photo taker, all framed with a camera in front to catch them all. Don’t think about it too much, it will just exhaust you.

The story of this selfie isn’t McIlroy and his throng of fans, but one guy who’s either way too excited about being in this shot, or he’s really a fish posing as a human and he’s drowning out of water.
