Sure, Tony Parker perfected the circus shot. Viral video stars continue to up the ante in creative shooting. But who can do all this while strumming a guitar?

Ben Lapps can. 

He’s more of a musician than an athlete, but he decides to try both in his latest video. Using one hand to play the neck of the guitar, he introduces a beat by drumming the body.

He switches hands as he introduces the basketball into the mix. Hooray, multitasking! 

He takes his shot one-handed and walks away after the ball goes in. It’s all done in a single take.
