Shocking Moment Netflix Cameraman Gets Kicked by Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader During Jake Paul-Mike Tyson Stream
A Netflix cameraman was left a little too surprised by the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders on Friday night.
The iconic NFL cheerleaders opened Netflix’s highly anticipated stream of Mike Tyson’s clash with Jake Paul on Friday evening at AT&T Stadium – home of the Dallas Cowboys – in Arlington, Texas.
And before the boxing legend and former YouTuber even entered the ring, the big hits were delivered.
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, dressed in their infamous uniforms, wowed as they performed their iconic Thunderstruck dance, highlighted by a 25-second chorus line of high kicks.
However, one cameraman got a little too close as they walked down the line in an attempt to capture the dazzling routine.
They received a huge blow to the head as they crossed paths with the flailing limbs of the cheerleaders.

The cheerleaders, ever the professionals, kept their perky smiles and carried on as the dazed cameraman picked himself up and plowed on.
The incident left fans — those who were actually able to watch the incident amid streaming issues — in stitches.
However, it wasn’t the only on-camera glitch Netflix suffered when another camera wandered below the belt during an interview with Tyson.
During a backstage interview with his son Amir, Tyson, who ultimately lost to the former YouTuber by unanimous decision, left viewers wide-eyed.
After a brief exchange in which he predicted a “violent ending” to his fight with Jake Paul, Tyson turned around and revealed his bare backside.
That left co-commentator Rosie Perez completely unimpressed as she noted, “We could have done without that ass shot.”
The view left viewers stunned and outraged by the technical difficulties, prompting many to give in just in time to see Tyson’s backside.
However, most viewers were unable to witness both incidents live as Netflix’s stream went down continuously, leaving fans furious.

The 58-year-old Tyson lost to Paul by unanimous decision in a disappointing fight
Many fans were disappointed by the lackluster spectacle, with Paul even seemingly feeling sorry for Tyson as the boxing great lost a unanimous decision to Paul in front of 70,000 people at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Friday.
Tyson, fighting an opponent 31 years younger than him, really showed his age. Slow and stiff, he staggered around the ring failing to make an impact outside the first 30 seconds – mainly because his right knee was in a brace.
Tyson was unable to match Paul’s energy and his condition deteriorated during the eight-round clash. Despite the veteran’s struggles, it was remarkable to see Paul refrain from striking a decisive blow.
And in the final ten seconds of the fight, he even stepped back and bowed to Tyson, out of respect for the sports royalty, while essentially taking his foot off the accelerator.
