Burmese teenagers play incredible game of keepy-uppy

These village teenagers were playing an incredible game of keepy-uppy - kicking the ball across a net on dusty jungle court. The shirtless lads were seen in a remote village in Yangon, Burma, taking part in traditional South East Asian sport Sepak Takaw on September 11. They knock the small straw ball back and forth across the court, the aim being for the other person to miss it - like badminton. Kung fu teacher Dave Leduc filmed the lads and praised their ''insane skills''. He said: ''In Myanmar, we use our headbutts for two things: Lethwei and Chinlone. I actually think that playing this game can make you into a better fighter, it makes you more athletic and explosive. ''[The] last few months, I explored villages outside Yangon with @stillkwik and we were invited to play with these monsters, needless to say I will stick to Lethwei. Insane skills.''
