Cesc Fabregas Juggles A Fireball

By: chris | May 5th, 2008

I have two questions:

1. Does Nike know that’s Cesc Fucking Fabregas?
2. What do you think Arsene thought when he saw this? I can’t imagine he has yet, because he surely would’ve died of a massive heart attack.

I understand they took all the proper safety precautions and all that – but this kid is a veritable goldmine. He’s easily one of the brightest talents, regardless of age, in football and these people are setting him on fire for a TV show right before the Euros? Madness.

The point is to make it seem as though it's actually him doing the juggling to prove to any Cesc-haters that he is, in fact, the shit. It's not him in the suit when the ball's on fire, but Cesc is so awesome that he could juggle a flaming ball if his contract allowed it.

Well, what would be the point if it wasn't him? Doesn't look particularly dangerous to me.

0.0% chance that's actually Fabregas, of course.

I like the disclaimer at the bottom, where it says not to "try this at home or anywhere". I wouldn't be hugely shocked one way or the other about whether it's Cesc or not, since I'm sure him (or the stunt man) were well protected inside the stunt. Insurance and team legal issues make me guess stuntman, but could be either.

Its almost certainly not Cesc, there is a clever cut in there where he could have been replaced. Surely this kind of thing is just asking for someone to copy it too? Crazy.

It does look awesome though.

So we're 100% certain that it's Fabregas who is in that suit when they set it on fire? Because it wouldn't require the most advanced editing in the world to to have subbed him out for a professional stunt man...

Or perhaps I'm missing your sarcasm, but it's Monday so I should be excused.
