Football

It may look like a scene straight out of a Marvel movie, but we assure you it happened for real. At the Portuguese Cup final on Sunday, a man actually did fly through air to deliver a football to the referee. The Benfica vs Vitoria de Guimaraes final saw an official flying in on a drone to kick-start the match. The Guardian reports that he flew around for 70 meters in the rain on the skateboard-shaped drone before touching down expertly to deliver the ball.

The video of the official on his levitating hoverboard has gone viral with over 3 lakh views on YouTube in just one day.
