During a first-round match at the U.S. Open, a ball boy attempting to look cool while doing his work discovered physics has no sympathy for you, no matter how many balls you have. During Tuesday's match between Andy Murray and Ernests Gulbis, this ball boy tried to catch a runaway ball by hurdling a billboard on the sidelines. As you can see from the video, his plan worked poorly.
The ball boy was apparently uninjured and is looking forward to spending the rest of his life trying to live down a video that's now plastered across all corners of the Internet and on every news outlet's sports-highlight reels. Check out the video below.

Faceplant! Lighten up, people. As long as he wasn't seriously injured, it's pretty funny.

There's no shame in honest work. There is shame in laughing at other's misfortune.

Poor, li'l fella'. He'll be teased for 5,249 centuries over this by all his INVIDIOUS, so-called friends. The two-legged creatures, know as Homo-Sapiens, that inhabit this Planet really "Bite-The-Big-One".

First off, this is not news. Secondly, the people who play pro tennis and golf are pompous jackasses and only wish that they were getting half as much video/air time as this ball boy is getting. Here is a clue about why this video is somewhat funny----NO ONE GIVES A RAT'S ASS ABOUT TENNIS ANYMORE BECAUSE THE PROS TOO SNOOTY TO BE A PART OF REGULAR SOCIETY!!!!

I can NOT believe that you said that! You obviously do not even play tennis, and have no business whatsoever in commenting about it. Move on to something else so you can complain with a little more intelligence than you've shown here. Oh, here's a tip. If you don't like the content, DON'T READ THE ARTICLE.
