and a woman and her baby are stuck on a high floor, looking out the window. The firetruck's ladder cannot reach them, so the woman contemplates throwing the baby down to the firemen but both the mother and the firemen are scared of maybe not catching the baby.
Then, Manuel Neuer, Germany's star goalkeeper and the world's best in his position on the pitch, happens to pass by. He then volunteers to catch the baby, as he has fantastic goalkeeping skills. The mother, however, still doubts him.
"I don't know if you could catch him," the mother cries from the top.
"Just trust in me, I am the best goalkeeper in the world! Catching your baby is a piece of cake! You've seen me do that a lot of times in games, right?"
So the mother reluctantly decides to throw the baby down. Neuer positions and says to himself: "Fall back to your instincts. It's just like a ball."
The mother drops the child. There was an anxious gasp and wait among the firemen and bystanders. But Neuer lives up to the expectations and catches the child safely in his arms.
The people celebrate. But since Neuer has fallen back to his instincts he immediately punts away the baby.
P.S. I am also aware of the "wide receiver and shuffle" version.
