The mystique and beauty of baseball manager BIG BOSS continues in Japan with his latest arrival to lead the Hokaiddo Nippon-Ham Fighters onto the field. This time he was practically flying through the air on a drone, because of course he was.

Firstly, I didn’t know such a thing existed. It’s equal parts amazing and terrifying. I would love to fly through the air, but I also know that I would be screaming in terror the entire time, convinced that I was about to hit the ground.
Of course I’m not BIG BOSS. BIG BOSS fears nothing, and everything fears BIG BOSS because I’m convinced that he can only control his surroundings with his wits and sheer willpower, which means that if that drone engine somehow fails, he’s still on a cloud of his own Psychic floats power like Jean Gray from the X-Men.
If you missed BIG BOSS’ debut, that’s okay, because here he emerges from a box in a neon jersey.
