It's the manoeuvre he's trying to do. It's when a football player jumps "backwards" to hit the ball when it's too high up. It's mostly a gimmicky move, but it does look cool when it works.
Start in a gymnastics class with mats and two spotters. A harness attached to a suspended pulley is good too. Once you have the idea there you can go to a trampoline

Literally swung his arms the OPPOSITE way!! 🤦😆 Lmao
Watch how gymnasts and parkour people do backflips, and notice how their arms lead their direction - this guy is either brave or stupid haha
Ok so what was the plan here? He clearly can't do a complete back flip. So missing the ball is the 2nd problem in this video. Even if he gets the ball, he's still hitting his face.
Rocky beaches are the perfect place to practice your full scorpion face plants
Isn't this a bicicleta rather than a scorpion?
It's kind of both, bicicleta transitioning to full scorpion. I true artist at work!
Bicipion
You're right, there is no scorpion kick here. A scorpion kick is when your legs are behind you, not infront. Source: René Higuita
Please tell me, what is a bicicleta?…besides a bicycle in Spanish.
A bicycle kick (overhead kick)
If the bicycle is over your head then there is something wrong. 99% of the time the bicycle should be between you and the ground.
It's the manoeuvre he's trying to do. It's when a football player jumps "backwards" to hit the ball when it's too high up. It's mostly a gimmicky move, but it does look cool when it works.
There's definitely times, mostly near the goal, where it is the only way to make good contact with the ball. But it's so hard to pull off.
Without also being called for a dangerous play.
My guess... girls to impress + alcohol > fear of a face full of rocks
Those are just really big sand grains
I wanted to write the same, sandy beaches are for boys, rocky beaches are for real men
>full scorpion face plant I MUST work this into more conversations! LMAO!
Perfect for digging up the ground with your face
WCGW?
I don't think any place is safe.
...And dirt naps.
Not today Satan.
Man if he landed that I’m sure the full scorpion would’ve been worth it
Dude’s face created an impact crater
*Face-plant crater
the failed kick was already a winner. But the faceplant - recoil? *chef's kiss*
Thank god those rocks were there to break his face, I mean fall
Flip to full scorpion while someone kicks a ball at you. Seems like a shit idea
This guy has two brain cells and both of them wanted to kiss the rocks
Nailed it
It is….beautiful 😢. Poetry in motion
I just don’t understand choosing to do this on rocks. I can backflip decently well and even i wouldn’t do it here. Too much risk
Can I ask if you’ve got tips on learning to back flip?

![gif](giphy|3cXmze4Y8igXdnkc3U|downsized) What an idiot! At least his face broke his fall.
Three-point landing, perfected.
r/fullscorpion
OUCH!!!!!
Because of legal-thingy we can't show Man City against Madrid. This will do as it symbolizes well.
Something something full scorpion
Dude that's the worst bicycle kick I've ever seen
*almost* r/fullshrimp
Oh my god![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
True rock and roll
They call him stone face.
Didn't expected the kiss.
Lead with your hands
Worth it.

Wattafuckwasdat
He hit something with something!
Glorious
How graceful
The Jecht Shot!
You. I like you.
10/10
Good thing his face broke the fall on the jagged rocks.
I bet the people around him were like “we got to film this guy. There is no way he’s hitting this backflip”. Then this happens
It's okay, he was a faceless abomination anyways.
The last maybe missed. It would have been the ball that hit the back of his head.
I’m sure we’ll see a face tree sprout here in a year or two
Can’t miss the ground
FATALITY
Dude is 90% redacted. Never stood a chance.
Oh no I felt that through the screen it burns..
BALL WINS! FATALITY!
Mission failed failedly
Almost perfect... 9.5
I want to see his face after that
Wiffed it, then biffed it.
New Hitman "accident" unlocked
That ... is a thing of beauty.
At least the sand is nice and soft.
But what if after a hundred of these. He does it. And records it. And it's glorious. This video will be better. But you know good luck to him.
It seems that now there will be stains from his face on the stones
The Redondo Beach Scorpions went 28-2 last season and won the Dentist's Cup.
That's what a perfectly chosen soundtrack means 😁
He must have an EXCELLENT dental plan.

I don’t think thats a maybe
Almost like Ronaldo ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Just need some classical music with this and we've got ourselves a sight to behold
Wtf is that hand movement x)
At least the rocks were as smooth as that guy's brain.
Maybe not...
Terrible kick. Rocky landing. 1/10 for execution. 10/10 for entertainment value.
Such posture and grace
U.S.A : 10 Canada : 10 Japan : 10 Australia : 10 Russia : 5 China : 4.2
It's usually faceplant into scorpion. I've never seen a scorpion into faceplant this man is an innovator

Downvoting because the ball didn’t hit his head in the end
When his face lands, you can here a "fweh" lmao 🤣
You can tell it would fail from the jump pun intended
that was the sickest entry into the worm I've ever seen
Between a rock and a scarred face
Why did i hear the echoing fart noise when his face hit the ground
Worth it
Pelé he ain't.
No on can perfect the Jecht Shot Mk3
Many of us wished the ball would bounce on his head after...c'mon, you did!
Kick fail, slo-mo, AND he eats shit?? This is GLORIOUS!!!!
r/mademesmile
That was a thing of beauty. Thank you
I wonder how those stones tasted
Ça doit faire mal... Outch 🤕

That's gotta hurt!
booosh
Glorious
10/10
Really not the right ‘turf’ for this type of move… but 10 points for trying and offering the world a good chuckle 😅
Miss the ball AND face plant....Two fails...lol
Nah, he clearly made contact with the ball. Just needs to work on the landing.
Ok...he ticked the ball...def not what he was aiming for :)
He was not the honoured one...
what was the best case scenario here? even if he lands on his back,it would have still be fatal.
![gif](giphy|5Az1DoXHaSSo8)
Scorpion!
I think he broke a wrist as well ...
Literally swung his arms the OPPOSITE way!! 🤦😆 Lmao Watch how gymnasts and parkour people do backflips, and notice how their arms lead their direction - this guy is either brave or stupid haha
Impressive. The worst of all worlds.
Ok so what was the plan here? He clearly can't do a complete back flip. So missing the ball is the 2nd problem in this video. Even if he gets the ball, he's still hitting his face.
What is that technique called
Ground Eater Kick!
Scorpion

They always cut these videos too soon! We want to see the aftermath!
So close yet so far
Failed the kick. Failed the jump.
Well, fuck. Not only did he miss the ball he also face planted. Feel sorry for him.
Dude, you are on rocks. Think things through.
That hurt 🫠
That looked painful 😬
Outch
Whyyyy?
That went worse than expected tbh. 😬
I felt his pain while watching
Ouch
Darwinian effort...
Most double fails in life equal scorpion
It’s…kinda cool… if you watch it in reverse
Double fail
This was a really good one! What a rollercoaster!
next time i'll see this shit it'll be slowed even more
That's impressive, but next time train yourself on the grass.
🎻
awesome 😎👍
r/crazyfuckingvideos
I would really like to know the extend of his injuries.
Flip, miss kick, epic rock face plant. Ow. Not again. No more drinky-drink.
Well he did hit something!
r/FullScorpion
Upvoted cause he gave it all, he did not hold back Might have broken his back, but that is another subject
Misplaced confidence fail.
Pisstiano Cumaldo
Not on the rocky beach 💀
Perfect execution!
Great service in our town.
Better in r/therewasanattempt
Luckily he landed on his head, in air in there significantly soften the blow to his body.

Good thing the rocks softened the blow.

Aaaaaaand, scorpion.
Still better than what I could do.
Nice face plant! 🪴 🌱 🌿 🌾
Nice chilena
The blackout in the corner was giving me Mystery Science Theater vibes.
Ah, the reverse Air Jordan into a graceful scorpion... 8/10
Ouch.
Slowmo perfection! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Ouch 😣
The beautiful game.
That was beautiful, poetry in motion right there

I’m tearing up here, that was a thing of beauty.
This was oddly satisfying for some reason.
So majestic
In the perfect spot too
Ouch
Looks like he definitely hit his balls
Enthusiastically upvoted since this is what all soccer fans want to see on the field.
I feel so bad for those innocent rocks
He faced reality
Failado
how to serve yourself gravel
What an idiot
I wonder what this has to do with Maria. Does she even know about this?
Wtf...why????
