The Oregon State football team was doing a community service project earlier this week, and a few of the players decided to take a break to relive their childhoods and goof off on the playground swings.

One of those players was freshman lineman Blake Brandel, who weighs 282 pounds. The resulting video is pure gold.

You've gotta love the composition. The slow pan, the look of pure elation on Brandel's face at the endpoint of his swing, and the look of suprise when the thing snaps like a stale pretzel.

This is a cautionary tale in Do Not Use Equipment Meant For Little Humans One-Quarter of Your Size.
