Video of Mike Tyson Playing Dart and Hitting Bullseye Blindfolded Goes Viral
It seems like retired professional boxer and former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, Mike Tyson, has a new sport and he's scary good at it.
On Tuesday, Tyson appeared on Fox Sports in a segment called "Celebrities Throwing Sharp Objects, Blindfolded." As the name of the segment says, Tyson has to throw darts with his eyes completely blindfolded.
He was pretty much game about the dare and it looked like he really felt no pressure at all.
The host even made sure that Tyson couldn't see when the blindfold was put on. He was given three darts. His first try wasn't that bad at all because it landed on the board. "You get the board, that doesn't usually happen, you're doing good," the TV show host said.
What surprised the host the most as well as the other people watching the show live is when Tyson hits the bullseye on the second and third throws.
"Oh my God, did everybody see that," the host exclaimed.
You have to see the video. Check it out below. It was posted by Fox Sports on their YouTube channel and became viral instantly. As of this writing, it has more than 637,000 views.

We will still be seeing more of Mike Tyson after his appearance at Fox Sports because he has been busy promoting his docu-series Being Mike Tyson. It is a six-part documentary which premieres on Sunday on Fox. The docu-series provides keen insight into Mike Tyson's battle for redemption and normalcy, according to Yahoo Sports' columnist Kevin Iole.
In case you are cynical, you can watch the video several times. I am sure that you will still feel in great awe of Tyson's incredible dart-throwing. However, the question is, can he do it again? It might just be pure luck, but he did so with the second and final dart. Maybe playing dart is some sport that he can also excel and do well.
