Vines: Conor McGregor simply can’t jump, no matter how hard he tries

He's only human after all

You can’t pull the wool over our eyes, McGregor

Conor McGregor was out in Muscle Beach in Los Angeles during the week, showing off the fact that he is in peak physical condition heading into his title fight against Jose Aldo.

The Irish UFC superstar might have been holidaying it up in the scorching LA sun, but in a testament to his commitment to being a professional athlete, he also used it as an excuse to get in some training.However, there was one particular move that McGregor just couldn’t master and unfortunately,  there was a camera recording the whole thing.

Despite his best efforts, McGregor just couldn’t complete a vertical jump onto a beam that Peter Stringer could probably walk under in high heels.

Not willing to admit defeat, McGregor had a cheeky look around to make sure no one was watching, before he decided to take the necessary steps to get on top of that beam.
