Video shows Tom Brady knock drone out of air with football thrown from yacht in MrBeast challenge

Tom Brady may be retired from the NFL, but his throwing arm is still ready for action.

Brady, the former Tampa Bay Bucs and New England Patriots quarterback and widely regarded G.O.A.T, recently appeared in a video with viral YouTuber MrBeast, whose real name is James Donaldson.

In the video, reportedly shot on a $300 million yacht, Donaldson challenges Brady to knock his drone out of the sky with a football throw.

Brady accepts quipping, "All right, if I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement."

His daughter doesn't seem too confident in her dad's ability. "Dad, you're gonna like miss," she says, to which he responds, "I probably will miss."

Brady then knocks the drone out of the air on the first attempt sending it into the water.
