VIDEO: Cristiano Ronaldo Actually Seems to Float on Wild Header in Juventus vs. Sampdoria
By Michael Luciano
There have always been rumors that Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo was not of this planet, but he might have confirmed all the rumors against Sampdoria. The Portuguese star skied over Sampdoria center back Nicola Murru, getting at least eight feet off the ground in one of the most athletic plays you'll ever see.

Ronaldo might be plagued by injury this season, but he's just as deadly as ever when healthy, as his 12 goals in 20 games show. With Ronaldo up top in Maurizio Sarri's aggressive attacking style of soccer, Juventus are once again near the top of Serie A.
Ronaldo breaking gravity should help them win another Scudetto, as well.
But no one gonna talk about how his leg just stuck into the ground like a Javalon Pole? No bend at all with that angle; pure strength man

Ronaldo continues to defy the laws of physics, conventional science, and soccer logic, as he remains one of the best finishers in the game at the age of 34. Plays like this have become ordinary for the legendary striker.
