He can fly (Jack and Rose Football Meme)
Text content
Gonna tell my kids these were Jack and Rose
Overview
This meme features a photograph of two male Norwegian national team footballers celebrating on a green football pitch. The player in the front wears jersey number 21, holds his arms out wide to his sides with a neutral expression, while the player behind him wraps his arms around the front player's waist, smiling. The pair are posing identically to the iconic 'I'm flying' scene between Jack and Rose from the film Titanic. Text overlaid at the top of the image reads 'Gonna tell my kids these were Jack and Rose', making a silly, humorous joke that future children will be lied to about the identity of the pair in the photo, framing them as the famous Titanic characters.
Origin notes
This meme was sourced from the Reddit r/Meme subreddit via RSS feed, with the original post title 'He can fly'. It combines a real photograph of Norwegian footballers performing a goal celebration with the popular 'gonna tell my kids' meme format, where people joke about lying to their future children about pop culture or historical events, alongside a reference to the extremely well-known Titanic film scene.
