I've always been impressed with what some people can do with a soccer ball. I thought the following links were interesting:

That last one is on the leidseplein in Amsterdam. I used to live 100 metres away from there. There are always street performers and like this guy they can do amazing things sometimes.

Edit: the first one is a known hoax, it's a commercial.

I love the choice of music...as if you had to emphasize how badass that was.
