Quote mr.simpson="mr.simpson"this is one for the older fans, an american football player was shown getting a touchdown on tv by jumping over the defender. now i seem to recollect my dad telling me of a wigan player who did this way back in time.
can anyone cast any light onto who it was, or was it just a myth?'"
what the OP has neglected to say , is that the american footballer didnt HURDLE over the corner back , he SOMERSAULTED over him and landed on his feet in the end zone.....TOUCHDOWN.
and the defender was standing up, all of 6foot + of him
never seen a rugby player do a somersault in a match
if you want to watch it type in.....Jerome Simpson Front Flip Touchdown...on the usual video site
