Tom Brady has a history with boats. He’s bought the occasional yacht. He threw passes to a Formula 1 driver from one yacht to another at the Monaco Grand Prix. He threw the Super Bowl trophy from a boat, as you do.
Now, the retired quarterback has also thrown a football at a flying drone while aboard a $300 million yacht ― and the only question is why it didn’t happen sooner. (Watch the video below.)
The seven-time Super Bowl winner teamed up with YouTuber MrBeast, aka Jimmy Donaldson, for the stunt, posted Saturday.
“If I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement,” Brady said.
“Dad, you’re gonna, like, miss,” his daughter Vivian teased.
Dad didn’t miss. With a whip of his Hall of Fame-bound right arm, Brady blasted the drone out of the sky.
He also threw a perfect strike to a waiting receiver (who dropped it) for an encore.

Brady’s former NFL rival Aaron Rodgers took a while to warm up in his own drone challenge in early 2022. But he came in hot with a jab at Brady’s Deflategate controversy.
