A video showing a man playing badminton with a broom has left social media users amused. The clip, shared by Instagram user Jatin Sharma, known as ‘Badminton Lovers’, shows him entering a badminton court with a broom and skillfully using it to hit the shuttlecock. Jatin posted the video last week, and it kicks off with a conventional badminton match between a man and a woman on the court. However, the game takes an unexpected turn when Jatin steps in, playfully disrupting the ongoing match. He proceeds to exhibit his extraordinary skills by creatively playing the game with his broom instead of a traditional badminton racket. Effortlessly handling the broom, he not only maintained pace with the game but also secured a point by the end.
The caption of the post stated, “Wait for the end. Never judge a book by its cover.”
Watch the video here:
The viral video has already crossed 3 million views, and people on social media are amazed, calling Jatin a “legend.”
A user commented, “Rackets invented in 1926 by people before 1926.”
Another wrote, “Bro he plays badminton with a broom he’s the strongest in the whole universe.”
Someone claimed that the game was now called “broominton.”
While someone added that “India is not for beginners.”
A user joked, “I wasted my money on racquets.”
Jatin’s amazing talent might be unexpected, but checking his Instagram shows he’s a professional badminton player. Maybe this broom trick is just another example of his exceptional skills!
The use of brooms in sports is not a novel concept. While Quidditch, a fictional sport shown in the Harry Potter series, involves broomsticks, it might surprise you to know that this imaginative game has been brought to life in the real world as well. For devoted Potterheads, this realisation is a dream come true. The enchanting idea of Quidditch, initially designed for wizards in the magical realm, has transcended fiction to become an actual sport. In the real-world version, seven players have brooms between their legs, combining rugby, dodgeball, and tag.
