Football freestyle duo Jeremy Lynch and Billy Wingrove took to the streets of London to see if anyone from the general public could match Ronaldo’s jump, with a Champions League ball hanging from 2.65 metres next to a large cardboard cut-out of the man himself.
£1000 was the lottery awarded to the public equaling or surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo’s jump
For the public equaling or surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo’s jump, £1000 million lottery would be provided.
F2 freestylers held an incredible Cristiano Ronaldo challenge for the public. Should any candidate equal or surpass the Juventus star’s jump, they will be handed over an immense £1000.
The former Real Madrid forward scored a leaping header like no other in May and the jump was deemed ridiculous by the experts. Additionally, he leapt 2.65m against Wales in the EURO Semifinals 2016, which was deemed as non-defendable by the manager Chris Coleman.
Numerous people tried for this prize, but everybody failed including the celebrity, Mark Wright who came the closest before a tall Australian hit the jackpot. And it worked wonders as he hurled himself in the air before getting a connection with the ball, sparking some pretty incredible scenes in the street.
Remember the day Cristiano Ronaldo surpassed the goal post height against levante which was 8ft. Beast❤️ pic.twitter.com/1LAQ0XU9Fw

The bloke who borrowed the winner his trainers was given £250 by Billy and stated he would donate it to Action for AT, a charity which he has been an ambassador for in the last five years.
It has emerged that Cristiano Ronaldo is able to jump more than any an average NBA player.
