Tom Brady knocks MrBeast's drone out of air with football on $300m yacht

Tom Brady may have retired from professional American football but he still has a great arm.

In a recent video shared to MrBeast's YouTube channel, Brady puts his throwing skills to the test while out on a $300 million yacht.

Most people would take it easy while out to sea on a super expensive boat, but MrBeast wanted to make their time on the waves extra interesting.

The 25-year-old YouTuber set a challenge to the former New England Patriots star - to knock his drone out of the air with a football.

And to make it extra tricky, MrBeast flew the drone several yards away from the yacht.

The odds weren't in Brady's favor - the sea can be unpredictable, nerves can build up on camera and footballers aren't usually tasked with knocking drones out of the sky.

Brady's daughter Vivian, who was also on the boat, wasn't too optimistic herself as she told her dad: "You're gonna miss!"

But Brady remained hopeful, remarking: "If I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement."

Well, he better give his agent a call, because he wiped the drone out on his first attempt.

The 45-year-old announced his retirement earlier this year, sharing the news in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Speaking in the video posted in February, Brady said: "I know the process was a pretty big deal last time, so when I woke this morning I figured I'd just press record and let you guys know first.

"Thank you guys for allowing me to live my absolute dream. I wouldn't change a thing."

Though this wasn't the first time Brady had announced his retirement, as he had done so last year only to change his mind a few weeks later.

Fans applauded Brady at the time of his announcement, taking to the comments to praise the legendary football star.

One wrote: "Thank you for everything."

"Congrats on an unbelievable career," said another. "It was fun to watch!"

A third added: "The greatest to ever do it. New challenges for you to conquer now. No doubts you will... thanks for the memories as a die hard football fan."

While a fourth commented: "Respect! The tone in your voice said a lot. Walking away from a game you love that you can still compete in.

"Your level of obsession, passion, commitment to the game inspired people in many industries outside of the NFL. You’re one of a kind. Wish you nothing but the very best!"

Whether or not Brady's recent win against MrBeast's drone will reverse his retirement decision remains to be seen.
