These Lads Would Destroy You At Headers And Volleys

Check out this jaw-dropping video coming out of Thailand of Sepak Takraw, a popular sport in Southeast Asia that combines elements of volleyball and hacky sack keepy uppies.

The sport is played on an indoor court with teams of three players all pursuing a ball called a "ratten" and it follows the same basic principles of volleyball and badminton. The only catch is that players can only make contact with the ball with their feet.

The result makes for some extremely entertaining viewing with incredible samba-style acrobatics and bicycle kicks and flying volleys galore.

While the players' heroics are commendable, one must think that the real benefactors of the sport are the chiropractors of Southeast Asia. Just look at some the falls these guys take. Those back doctors must be making a killing.
