In an extraordinary and painful turn of events, a cricket player faced a series of unfortunate incidents by being hit on his balls not once, but thrice in the same game. This unexpected and painful occurrence left spectators and commentators in splits, while the unfortunate player had to endure the excruciating pain repeatedly.

The incident was captured on video and quickly went viral, drawing numerous reactions from viewers. The commentary during the game highlighted the severity of the situation, with one commentator noting, "Slip and play and that wasn't because he missed the ball and not laughing you cry. Everyone on the whole ground and in the crowd finds this funny except for you." Another added, "That unfortunately is the third time this evening; he might not get up from this."

The reactions from the online community were a mix of empathy and humor. One user exclaimed, "OHH NOOOOO!!!" while another commented, "Ouch, right between the wickets." Despite the humor, the concern was evident as one user pointed out, "I can't believe it, the trainer has him lying on his back and is m****ging him where the ball struck him. He's bringing out the lotion from the first aid bag!!"

The video also sparked a discussion about the effectiveness of protective gear, with one comment explaining, "Protective cups don't suddenly make you immune to pain; if you get hit hard enough in the cup, you might not get permanent damage and not need a trip to the hospital but it is gonna still hurt a lot." This conversation extended to other protective equipment, drawing comparisons to bulletproof jackets.

Adding to the humor, a user linked the situation to the infamous Scott Sterling, known for his viral video of repeatedly getting hit in the face with a soccer ball, asking, "Is he related to Scott Sterling?" Another user humorously noted, "I've had a vasectomy and I got a better chance of getting a woman pregnant than this guy."

The player, now humorously dubbed "The man. The myth. The legend." by the online community, has certainly left an unforgettable mark on the game. Despite the pain and the laughter it caused, this incident serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of sports and the importance of protective gear.

For those interested, the video can be found circulating on various social media platforms, offering both a cringe-worthy and laugh-inducing experience.

TIL people have the same misconception about gun silencers and protective cups. Gun silencers don't make a gun fully silent, they REDUCE the noise. Protective cups don't suddenly make you inmune to pain, if you get hit hard enough in the cup, you might not get permanent damage and not need a trip to the hospital but it is gonna still hurt a s*** ton. Same goes for other protective equipment, if you get shot using a bulletproof jacket you much still get a few broken ribs and a nasty hematoma, it's not gonna kill you, but still gonna hurt.
