You don’t even have to know anything about rugby to recognize that this is cool as hell.
During a game on Sunday, Alan Knuckey of London’s Charlton Park rugby club pulled off an astonishing trick play he says he’s tried unsuccessfully to complete for 15 years.
Knuckey said he failed more than 50 times but decided to give it another go on the last play of the game—a blowout win over the team’s arch rivals. “This may be my finest ever rugby moment,” the 35-year-old wrote on Facebook.

“I would love for people to say they have ‘tried a Knuckey’—that would be the dream,” he told the BBC.
