Apple-catching boy wonder is Autumn’s trick shot king

(and probably ruining his teeth)

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Daniel, the apple-catching boy wonder, is going viral for this sequence of clips in which he seemingly catches an endless string of apples in his mouth as if he were a human basketball hoop.

What we don’t see is all the outtakes, where apples crash into foreheads, noses, and the like — but still, good apple catching, Daniel. We also agree with your Twitter bio, which says “I am not accountable for anyone’s apple-related injuries,” because nobody should try this at home.

This looks seriously painful, though, and my teeth ache just looking at it — but Daniel swears it’s not an issue.

The downside to going viral like this is when your mom finds out.
