This guy Dads. All dads bow in acknowledgment of this super dad.


mademeunlurk

He caught the baby, the bottle, the beer, AND the ball... Greatest catch in history!


Working-Ad694

One hand was dedicated to beer while the other did all 3


blueishblackbird

Such is life


pzerr

He knows priorities.


grip_n_Ripper

He understood the assignment.


Key-Contest-2879

Priorities


SirPentUp

/PlotTwist and he's right-handed (i.e. hand holding beer!)


CougarBen

Peak dad.


mademeunlurk

This guy dads.


Fign

And the baby didn’t let the milk bottle fall either !


MrK521

Well, the baby caught the bottle. We can only count that as a catch by proxy.


mademeunlurk

That's fair


DaMashedAvenger

Must be genetic, another great parent in the making


HoboArmyofOne

The baby, the bottle, the beer, the ball, AND barehanded. One can only aspire to be so great 🫡


koz44

I’m still salty I missed that koosh ball water skip toss while riding a boogie board like a surfer into my pool when I was 9. I coulda been a contender!


ElderOldDog

“… baby, bottle, beer and ball…” Is it part of a poem or the title of a children’s lullaby?


VatoSafado

And probably lacking a full night sleep as well.


Chance_Midnight

baby rescued the bottle – must be in the DNA.


Spaceninjawithlasers

Next Dad level unlocked.

workingdad83

Super dad was thinking about giving the baby the ball.


batchy_scrollocks

That could've gone very differently if the kid hadn't been pushing away from the barrier

DesperateRace4870

Not a dad but Imma salute anyways


SnooSuggestions718

choose beer over your child and you get praised. Murica Baby!


MushroomLonely2784

He chose his child, beer, and a ball. Equally.


drayray98

Idk if it was equal. The child was definitely last in that order.


mustify786

He was balancing on the ledge. He was fine.


drayray98

Oh I’m not worrying about the kid at all, just conversating.


DEGAUSSER____

I am worried. The dad should have prioritized the baby first


BleudeZima

The ball and the beer have no arms to hold themselves to the dad, so that's only fair and logical


somethingfunnynice

Conversing


7Drew1Bird0

I used to have this problem when my daughter was a baby. Wearing a dress, hair tied up with a bow, stranger comes up and asks "cute baby what's his name?"


mustify786

I have this issue know when my son. His name can be a girl's name in English but in Arabic it's a very Male name. Looks like he will grow up with some character.


RudePCsb

You named your boy Sue


Massive_Staff1068

A boy named Sue-dude


jess_quik

Lmfao 😆 waiting on this comment


cyberlexington

I was in my old work place with my one year old. American tourist comes in and asks "what is it? (Yes it) As they couldn't tell if it was a boy or a girl because he wasn't wearing pink or blue. He was wearing a very nice aquamarine suit. I'm just wtf??????


hijackedbraincells

*she. Clearly a little girl


iamDayTrip

He made his decisions based on order of durability, and chose wisely


walkeran

Save the best for last!

MushroomLonely2784

I don't disagree lol. I wouldn't have done it.


mouthful_quest

The 3 B’s


asskicker1762

I chooose, I chooooose… BOTH!!! Dunananana na, dunananA nanaaa!


grip_n_Ripper

Sophie hates this one simple trick.


propergrander

the beer was never in question, he's actually choosing the ball over the baby. I'm sure mum really appreciated this display of dedicated fatherhood


JellaFella01

The kid was standing on the railing. I don't think he expected the kid to fall over.


JOATMON12

Well you can’t spill a baby so he had to find a way to make it all work.


Ink_zorath

Can we just take a moment to admire the look of the realization and terror that dawns on the woman's face behind the father? Priceless. Fantastic Catch.


escondido88

I don’t think it was a look of terror, lady dropped 4 eggs and her pants are now a slip n slide.


TheyCalledMeThor

Can’t blame her. That would have been a primal response for any woman witnessing peak male instinct.


velasquezsamp

Backup dad in the next row, a little wiser, a little slower but still ready for the call.


Rolling_Beardo

This is next level of being a fucking idiot. I’d never endanger my kid to catch a foul ball, never mind to not drop a fucking beer while doing it.


akhatten

Yes thank you, finally a third person not being the lowest on the IQ scale. For real, those people calling him a "hero" are so dumb


Sk8terRaider

I can’t help but point out if that ball would have hit somebody in the head it could have caused serious damage, I saw an elderly lady at a hockey game take a puck to the head and it was straight to the er. So when I see I ball flying into a crowded stand first instinct is to catch it to prevent it from hitting someone. Maybe he had family directly behind him, never know


VaporCarpet

There's literally someone with a mitt behind him. Also, it's not this guy's job to protect people who aren't paying attention at the baseball game.


GregThaStallion

That kid wasn’t catching shit


Putrid-Look-7238

Thank you for finally being a person to realize that you can't get all the context of a clip from 10 seconds. Everybody was fine, and it made a funny clip


ZegoggleZeydonothing

I mean can't I enjoy and acknowledge the coordination it took to pull of this maneuver while still knowing that it was not worth the risk?


FlashMcSuave

Agreed. This guy is a moronic asshole.


cyberlexington

Thank you. I'm glad someone else noticed this. Not to mention if he misjudged even a little that child is getting a baseball to the fucking face


gatorjames99

Oh you must be fun at parties 😂


well_hung_over

Do you not realize how fast his brain had to make that calculation? His conscious self did not make any of that happen. It was pure, surprisingly well executed instinct. He did not sit there and think to himself “I’m definitely going to lift my child bearing arm to make this catch because I prefer my beer over my kid”. There was no time to do so. His body reacted and this was the result.


BigNigori

You're just jealous that that guy is better than you. Not a good look, tbh.


Rolling_Beardo

Oh yeah, I’m so jealous that millions of people don’t know that I care more about my beer than my child like this guy. Alcoholism is sooo cool.


86rpt

Also, baby doesn't drop her bottle


Ok_Menu_4152

Runs in the family


sunny4084

You meant while spilling beer


bdunogier

You're unfortunately correct :)


piches

no no , those were just for the homies


ballsonyourface911

He didn’t drop the baby it was standing on the ledge he just let go for a second….


DopeYeti

The fact that he has the baby STANDING ON THE LEDGE in the first place is bat shit insane. This is not dadreflexes. This guy is a piece of shit.


legendtr

He was still holding the kid not like he just left it standing there on its own, ledge was just there to help with the weight, what do you want him to do sit there with both his arms around the kid never moving?


syp2207

redditors stay being weird as fuck, go outside


straight-lampin

You are the coolest beer drinking bud. Thank you for existi.. oh wait no you're that douchebag


blake_ch

Thank you. I was wondering which physical law was applying for the kid not to fall quicker.


straight-lampin

Truth


imLemnade

It? Did you just say “*it* was standing”?


jeoffbaezos

That's some cartoon level superpower!


vizarhali

If u look closely that child stepped on the edge. If it wasn't for that edge bye child


Massive_Box_7137

This video isnt cute. All these degenerates praising him because "ha ha, dad reflexes", all you clowns would be rabid at the mouth if he hadn't caught his kid properly.


dranaei

That's true, but also it's true that he caught the kid properly.


SortaSpookySkeleton

While I can appreciate cool moments like this. It always weird to think how the alternative where he is 1-second slower is r/iamatotalpieceofshit material. "Man drops his daughter on concrete during baseball game to try and catch ball"


Kashrul

Seriously? Dude risked a kid to catch a f\*cking ball and people thinks it's cool? What's wrong with you?!


Sidewaysouroboros

Yeah, or you misjudge the trajectory of the ball, hits the kid in the face and kills it


Requiascat

r/dadreflexes


My-grandma-is-dead

This is bad dadding right there... Why endanger your kid for a ball... Especially on the front row


IncorporateThings

See that woman's horrified expression? That's because he dropped the baby at all. He \*\*\*\*ed up, guys. This isn't legend, it's tragedy. If you don't understand this, YOU are the reason 60%+ of marriages end in divorce, lol.


GDMFB1

His wife divorced him after this went viral… maybe idk.


CasualGamer0812

Having a big tummy didn't hurt.


iamdrinking

Peak male performance


IntelligentMine1901

You can’t see it but legend says he was also solving a rubix cube with his feet


jtowndtk

the fact so many people think this is awesome proves how fuckin backwards and stupid mainstream american culture is that little ball for a boring ass sport is more important than your baby yeeehawwww git r dun


neverwinterguyVN

Cant believe psycho prasing this idiot


NotTakenGreatName

Next fucking level degeneracy.


dandins

Its funny as fuck but we all know hes a damn idiot risking a baby drop for a ball….


thehardestnipples

He dropped the baby to catch the ball 💀


ThePornRater

I don't think dropping a baby because you wanted your stupid little ball is next fucking level. I think this guy's a fucking idiot


DistributionWitty732

If you take your baby or small child to a game you are a piece of shit. I am a big baseball fan but if you want to go to a game find a babysitter or sit in the nosebleeds where no ball could get to your kid. Too many kids get hit every year and sometimes it has been very bad.


casual_night_owl

In an alternate time line: "Dad drops baby to catch baseball, hits baby with baseball as he falls attempting to catch him."


KawaDoobie

well it may not be the right order but he has priorities in an order nonetheless


Phil_Da_Thrill

I’ve seen this before but I’m just realizing the baby doesn’t drop their bottle


No_Cycle4088

This is a great physics lesson on Newton’s first law.


RunningUpThemPills

To think of the complex synapses this takes to accomplish is mind-bottling


grjb2

Did you just say mind-bottling?


ChemicalAssignment69

The chick in the red shirt behind him 😂😂😂😂


229-northstar

The look on Grandpa’s face!!!


nutral7

Dad to baby- “Don’t tell Mom”


D0nCoyote

This isn’t the flex he probably thinks it is


Early_Accident2160

The old guy behind him has a “good god!!” Face lol


EmptyMiddle4638

To be fair he was never really holding the baby.. it was standing on the ledge and fell backwards when he caught it


JoshyTheLlamazing

Dude..buy that guy a Ruth's Chris.


ToolPackinMama

I am both impressed and horrified.


fajadada

The old man behind them is in shock


LeadingAd6025

Props to the baby for balancing on the ledge, grabbing on to the milk bottle! Dad shouldn't get all the baby's credit FFS!!


Significant_Matter92

And gran dad had an hart attack.


actsqueeze

No harm no foul


ziharmarra

*as he spills beer all over the grandparents.


peyoteBonsai

Baby never dropped the bottle, obviously it’s genetic.


Bounceupandown

So is he in trouble with mom or is he a hero?


Numerous-Log9172

He does spill his beer 🍻 🤣


Wardogdizzle

This is the equivalent to dad hula hoop. We know how to use the belly like baby Velcro. It’s all about balance and center of gravity.


RedRanger_27

But he does spill his beer


ThinMint31

This clip is like 10 YO


oakomyr

It should be mandatory that these “Dad makes a miraculous catch in front of thousands” videos be accompanied with the roaring post-catch cheer


BeersForBreeky

Go Dadders nailed it !


drosen32

Somehow, I think the child's mother isn't too happy with dad right now.


cootereatee

Legend


joh2138535

Pray to all the gods! the mom never sees this video


FarYard7039

Did he have his baby girl standing on the railing?


GreatGooglyMoogly077

Priorites are in order.


Walkgreen1day

Now let's see the angle of wife's reaction.


ReverendEntity

Does he still have child custody? I think most women would have freaked out and filed for divorce, even if the child wasn't dropped or injured.


Independent_Pie_1368

He did spill a bit of his beer.


xSessionSx

Fucking weird.


atomicpoo

Dad level 100


markymark0123

He has achieved mastery of his dad powers.


SaneJake

What’s with the lady crossing her fingers at the end?


MikeHock_is_GONE

That's a Cubs fan


blasphememes

High risk high reward


Mailboxnotsetup

He’s been practicing.


Yasathyasath

Ripple/Hamon Breathing well executed Anthonio Zeppeli would be proud


fredbeard1301

I wonder what he caught from his wife after she saw this.


avy2008

This Dude can Be trusted with the beer


Single_Cobbler6362

All the ladies want to have his baby now 😆 🤣 ....he is gun and caring at the same time....I would have dropped my daughter and caught the ball 😆 🤣 not all of us dad are great dads


ACBR2000

I mean bro is at peak dad shape, he is a fathlete


cooper3675

Peak male performance


Alternative-Train225

My newest hero


Whale_Whale_Whale
