Aussie comedy troupe tackles people in street as ‘Jarryd Hayne’

The Hayne Train rolls on … and over some comedians who were willing to take a hit to honor the Australian star.

Australian pranksters The Royal Stampede paid tribute to Jarryd Hayne with a video of them tackling, catching and stealing fast food on the streets of Adelaide, South Australia. No innocents were harmed by the gold sparkle leggings-wearing Hayne impersonator; those tackled hard to the ground were part of the act (although the shocked faces of passers-by are real).

Even Hayne himself took notice of the video, tweeting his appreciation:

Aussie humour at its best.
