Just a heads up on this program coming on sky sports 1 at 8pm-9pm on thursday (8/9).

Looks pretty intersting. At one point they cross the ball into him then turn off the lights and he has to imagine where the ball is and try and score in the dark.

In a unique hour-long film-documentary, Castrol EDGE Presents 'Ronaldo Tested to the Limit' which sees the star player’s skills, strength and agility taken away from the pitch and into a high performance lab. Where the world’s leading sports scientists use the latest technology, to test him in a series of challenges that show exactly what gives Ronaldo the edge.

Ronaldo - hit in the face with a ball

See it through night vision cameras

From the clip I saw he had to just chest the ball into the net when the lights went off.

Yep. I remember that goal, amazing counter attack.

Ronaldo is an amazing athlete, I don't think there is much argument about that.

He's in such an amazing physical condition, it's funny when you compare how fit he is to some other players, really no excuse for being a bit out of shape

lol at Ronald. That poor guy looked pretty humbled standing next to Ronny.

Pretty boring program to be honest. The tests really didn't tell us anything we don't all ready know about him. The lights going off part was impressive I guess. Wonder how many takes they did of that though?
