Rob Gronkowski wanted to make one last catch for the University of Arizona Wildcats, and he wanted it to be a big one. This plan was made by the head coach of the football team, Jedd Fisch, a former player, Donnie Salum, and the production company Liquid Light.

Guinness World Records recently posted a video of the catch on Instagram. The video has gone viral, with over 276k views and 33k likes. In the comments, most Instagram users said that the catch looks easy enough that anyone, not just NFL or college football players, could do it.

As one user wrote, “I could probably catch that,” “I could probably catch that,” “Seems easy,” and the third user wrote, “Hold my beer.”
