This High School Kid’s Water Bottle Flip Is Blowing Up The Internet

May 25, 2016

You never know what you’re going to get at talent shows, especially at the high school level. Hell, when I was in high school, one dude jumped up on stage and brought the crowd to his feet when he did a backflip on a pogo stick. He was then followed by a girl who read one of her poems, and it was nothing short of pure garbage.

Now on the surface, a water bottle flip at a high school talent competition might seem like it would fall into that pure garbage category, but as Mike Senatore at Ardrey Kell High School in Charlotte, NC, showed us last night, it is anything but:

The flip heard ’round the world has made Senatore an instant legend both on campus and on the web, and it’s well-deserved. I mean, the last time I heard a crowd lose its mind like that was in college when two girls at a party started making out with each other, which was awesome until I noticed that one of those girls was my sister.
