Forget the multiverse. MrBeast and Tom Brady just delivered the crossover we never saw coming.

On a recent video posted by YouTuber MrBeast, the former NFL star made a surprise appearance. In the video titled “$1 vs 1,000,000,000 Yacht!” MrBeast brings Brady and his two kids, Benjamin and Vivian, to explore a $300 million yacht.

While enjoying the views, Brady decided to accept a challenge from his host. MrBeast asked if Brady could throw a football from the yacht’s deck and know his drone out of the sky. Brady accepted but before attempting the throw, the 45-year-old made an intriguing remark.

“If I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement.”

Despite doubts from his daughter, Brady indeed nailed the drone out of the sky on the first try. Brady followed up the stunt with another football party trick. The all-time NFL wins leader pinpointed a pass to a MrBeast employee on a jet ski. The laser beam came in a little too hot for the non-NFL athlete to make the catch.

This isn’t the first time Brady has been known to have fun on the water. After Brady won his seventh Super Bowl in 2021, the former Buccaneers quarterback celebrated by tossing the Lombardi Trophy between two boats like a sack of potatoes.

The jaw-dropping situation went down during the team’s boat parade. Perhaps Brady was enjoying himself a little too much. Following the incident, Brady admitted on “The Late Late Show” he didn’t remember tossing the priceless trophy.

“I was not thinking at that moment. It was not a thought,” Brady said on the show. “It was, ‘This seems really fun to do. Not to mention, when you get your hands on one of those trophies, there’s a lot of really sharp edges on the bottom. … I found out later, had that been an incomplete pass, that would have went down like 80 feet. I’m so happy that (tight end) Cam (Brate caught it).”

After retiring from the NFL in February 2023, Brady won’t have too much time off. Brady agreed to a 10-year, $375 million deal with FOX Sports before his first retirement that will allow him to immediately become the network’s No. 1 color analyst. Brady is scheduled to begin in 2024.
