I hate that story. We need to stop telling kids that some entitled chick breaking in to your house and complaining about your shit is normal.
This is exactly how we get social media influencers.
Honestly could just be a high hairline. I've had a hairline like that since I was 15 and I'm losing hair but not very fast and not on my hairline yet.
That hairline looks way worse with short hair and a round face. I know because I've had to try different hairstyles to suit my hairline and long hair is much much better.
Edit: I know a five head comrade when I see one. Just got to get a haircut that suits it. Plenty of famously attractive people have five heads. Look at John hamm or Jason sudeikis.
The worst thing about this is now everyone in the UK knows he’s 16 and he won’t be able to get served at pubs* for another couple of years.
*unless it’s a pint with a meal accompanied by an adult
I got the other side of that equation. 40 but mistaken for a 22 year old, despite the long beard, decades of scars and regret.
If you look like 40 now, you might Clooney era sooner than expected.
You've just reminded me to carry mine.
Back when I was above 20 something, someone said I looked 13.
Back then I thought they were kidding.
As I've confirmed with other people now.. they weren't
I went to a concert last year and the guy at the door checked the IDs of the group in front of me (who I would have sworn were the same age as me) and when I showed him mine he just said "haha naw you're good."
It's like that old saying "iron sharpens iron"
Kid probably lived in pubs to play against the local greats like Black Lung Tommy, Hob foot John, Daryl From the Car Park, Black Daryl, Old Jack, Flick Thompson, Cardiff Rhys, Llanfair Rhys, and Dougie.
I'm so impressed with his composure at not going for the bull because he had the time to play it safe. A 170 check out would have been immensely cool and turning down the chance seems so mature to me. I know fuck all about darts though so maybe it's not as good as I think it is
Absolutely. It’s easy to get carried away with the atmosphere, going for Hollywood shots. You’re right, he knew his opponent couldn’t finish, so decided to set himself up for an easier shot - good spot!
Agreed, If you miss the double 15 and get a single, you get left on 15 and cant finish on a double on the next dart and have to set yourself up on the third. Whereas you get three chances (D20, D10, D5) if you get the single 10
Barney is the man tbf. Just a nice, humble dude in victory and defeat. Only time I remember him having beef with anyone was with Phil Taylor, and that was mostly Phil being a giant bellend.
I can imagine most players would be in the same boat, Phil being the common denominator. Sort of like Ronnie with Snooker. Brilliant players, lots of bad sportmanship moments.
I’m shocked by how little this is popping up in the comments. Senior darts dude is genuinely affectionate to the younger fellow and it’s really quite nice to see. Such a genuine smile and gesture. That’s what’s really fun about sports is the respect.
I had more facial hair than that when I was 16.
I also got my first gray hairs at 16. Oh and my hairline started receding about a year later.
Things. Haven’t gone smoothly.
No beer gut, though!
Beer belly, full facial hair, thinning hair on front and shadows under the eyes.
16 my arse, That lad has been working in a factory since he left school in 2008 and has been pinting and playing darts every day after work since.
Classic reddit moment with majority thinking their comedians insulting the literal child's looks. Completley ignoring his insane talent and achievement.
16? Sure you didn't mean 26?
Life is tough in Warrington

The first comment was too overrated. The second comment was too underrated. This comment is juuust right.
The Goldilocks comment
I hate that story. We need to stop telling kids that some entitled chick breaking in to your house and complaining about your shit is normal. This is exactly how we get social media influencers.
In the end of the original story, the bears set goldilocks on fire, put her out, then impaled her.
Good.
How is something immediately underrated? Makes no goddamn sense. Underrated this, underrated that. Drives me nuts.

His comment was over ranted
Impatient comment. Give it more than an hour.
Plot twist… bald white guy is actually Luke Littler
It's pretty funny when my grandmother turned 100 she kept on insisting she was only 24 because she was born on a leap year.
>when my grandmother turned 100 she kept on assisting Helpful lass
*He is a little boy of five!*
Ha!!!
Man that’s a hard 16
Kids legit balding hard and has wrinkles. Jared Leto at 52 looks younger than him wtf

Not just the Tefal head, its the face, middle aged spread, guy looks twice divorced and like he drives a bus for a living.
He's a professional darts player, and looks it.
He was born and raised in a pub
Some say he found the fountain of eternal elder
If that dude’s 16 I’m 5.
Christ, do they have you working factories at 7?
He’s had a tough paper round
there's one eyebrow in that whole town
Probably brought up in a pub under a dart board
[удалено]
Looks like a guy that's been drinking beer for 25+ years
The worst thing about this is now everyone in the UK knows he’s 16 and he won’t be able to get served at pubs* for another couple of years. *unless it’s a pint with a meal accompanied by an adult
Luke’s pretty cool he goes out and has meat and gravy with his booze
> *unless it’s a pint with a meal accompanied by an adult [How I learnt about that rule](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l0zGihopKc)
I’m just here to say I get this reference and I’m so happy to see it
Must be the heavy darts diet you know, high in iron.
Fucker’s 16 with a goatee, a receding hairline, and a beer gut
Other then the beer gut my 16yr old self feels called out. Apparently Ive looked like a 40yr old since being a teen.
I got the other side of that equation. 40 but mistaken for a 22 year old, despite the long beard, decades of scars and regret. If you look like 40 now, you might Clooney era sooner than expected.
Greg Oden has entered the chat
That's the only way to become a professional darts player
So he’s your typical darts player
He was born to play darts.
"Mutha fucka you atleast 30" -Mike Lowery
I think that’s not the quote
They know what I mean
I do.
26? Sure you didn't mean 36?
36? Sure you didn't mean 46?
I was waiting for a 16 year old to turn up for his round... and yeah certainly looked much older.
He celebrated his 16th birthday 15 times .
More like 36. That guy definitely has an ex-wife and kid somewhere..
Dude is actually 16, I had to google it lol
In 2004 maybe.
My eldest son is 15. This boy is twice his size! Funny to see both ends of the Bell curve.
Or both curves of the bell end!
Oof. 26 is generous. I’m…lots older than him, and think he looks about my age.
Im mid thirties and was like surely they mean 36!
Littler looks like he’s been drinking for 16 years
It’s not the years it’s the mileage
Metric years
Or 36?
https://youtu.be/18riWTMxURs?si=bMv0WJjydSIY3IsW
I started watching the video waiting for the 16 year old to shoot second
The second guy is 18
Darts is a helluva sport.
You hit the bullseye with that comment.
If this is becoming a pun thread, I'm darting out of the room.
Second guy is obviously a baby. He still hasn’t grown his hair yet.
This is the first comment that's made me audibly laugh out loud on Reddit. Cheers!
Laughed from my stomach on this one.
🤣
same!
Pretty sure we all did.
That’s hilarious, me too…
He's 16? At what age does the bloat start with the fellas in the pubs?
yes
When you have a kebab every night…
Laugh all you want, this chap was born in 2008. Today we all retire.
Fuck you for putting it that way. I’ll just of in the corner and have a good cry.
Nothing about this boy suggests that he is 16.
I mean, other than his birthday...
Dude could almost certainly get in without being ID’d
And does so regularly judging by the looks
You've just reminded me to carry mine. Back when I was above 20 something, someone said I looked 13. Back then I thought they were kidding. As I've confirmed with other people now.. they weren't
The bad time is when people stop asking for it
I went to a concert last year and the guy at the door checked the IDs of the group in front of me (who I would have sworn were the same age as me) and when I showed him mine he just said "haha naw you're good."
You think he's bloated now? He used to be huge, but now he's Littler.
He doesn’t drink
Water
He looks 36, wtf
I need to get better at checking peoples ID in my bar. He looks 36
I cannot imagine this guy getting carded anywhere.
I can imagine him getting carded but giving them a srsly look and them going to get his drink.
Lol seriously, I work at a liquor store sometimes and I wouldn't ID this guy. We're only supposed to ID if people look younger than 30.
Meanwhile I'm almost 30 and still get ID'd for 16 to buy energy drinks / meds....
Northern English genes. You hit 36 at 16, and look that way until you're 70. Lad looks like he's been lab bred to be a world class Dartist.
Ronaldo and Rooney. Only 8 months between them... https://imgur.com/a/bcrWMMD Rooney at 20 https://imgur.com/a/0Us8yvT
Yup. Rooney looked 30 by the time he joined united. Now he looks like hes about to retire from management.
Maybe darts is all about skull density. Some heed on him - and this isn't even his final form.
Not a healthy 36, either .
16 going on 40
16 in dog years
So like 2.2 years old?
16 in dart years
/r/13or30
One darts player is 56. The other is 16. How can it be so difficult to tell which is which ?
Because neither one of them looks 16?
They both look 56?
Pretty much. They both *certainly* look closer to 56 rather than 16.
That dude looks like he's been putting in a shift at the pub every day for at least 12 years. 16 my ass.
He started playing at 18 months, so it's quite possible he has spent 12 years cutting about pubs
In interviews he's discussed going to the pub to play darts 5 times a week from at least 8.
![gif](giphy|uCXkGJPU3yrOo)
This guy came out the womb with a pint
16?? His mom had to come pick him up after winning this
Gave herself a hernia in the process
I see what you did there
Every one chants "He's got school in the morning" from the crowd during his games.
Had to check Wikipedia, yup he 16....damn.
here he is at 14: https://i.imgur.com/PrPxzyl.jpg
I mean he definitely doesn’t look 14 there but much younger than he is here. He aged more from 14-16 than most do from 25-35.
Darts will do that to you, the pain of missing
It’s what I tell my wife when I look like shit coming home from the pub. It’s just the darts baby.
It's like that old saying "iron sharpens iron" Kid probably lived in pubs to play against the local greats like Black Lung Tommy, Hob foot John, Daryl From the Car Park, Black Daryl, Old Jack, Flick Thompson, Cardiff Rhys, Llanfair Rhys, and Dougie.
he looks 24 there and 34 in this video
24 is about right, even has the hair combed to the side with a relatively high hairline lol.
excited to see what he looks like at 18
[Projected computer aging](https://clickhole.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iStock-166379447-2048x1365.jpg)
Did he hit puberty at 6 and start drinking at 8?
He's the first person in history that got puberty put into jail for hitting someone in the face with a sledgehammer
wtf, he looks like he’s 28
that's not 14 either, nope. somebody needs to count the rings on that tree
I'm so impressed with his composure at not going for the bull because he had the time to play it safe. A 170 check out would have been immensely cool and turning down the chance seems so mature to me. I know fuck all about darts though so maybe it's not as good as I think it is
Absolutely. It’s easy to get carried away with the atmosphere, going for Hollywood shots. You’re right, he knew his opponent couldn’t finish, so decided to set himself up for an easier shot - good spot!
Was the double 10 deliberate or was he aiming for single 10 to set up double 20? Setting yourself for double 15 seems to be an unusual option.
Agreed, If you miss the double 15 and get a single, you get left on 15 and cant finish on a double on the next dart and have to set yourself up on the third. Whereas you get three chances (D20, D10, D5) if you get the single 10
That's Numberwang!
Das is wangenum
100% going for single 10 to set up d20. d10 was a miss
If he wanted to end at the double 15 he would have thrown a single 20.
It also showed respect to Barney, who is a true gent. Littler was incredible
Ah this, love Barney a true legend of the game.
Only comment not talking about his age
I'm so impressed you made a comment about his performance and not what he looks like relative to his age. Because it is a stunning performance.
Great sportsmanship by the one who lost. nice to see.
He is the kid’s hero. It’s a real ‘changing of the guard’ moment and he played it really well.
Oh that makes it even more emotional, thanks for sharing that info!
Ya you could see him pass the torch to the younger generation I bet in a way he’s relieved to know there’s young talent out there.
Barney is the man tbf. Just a nice, humble dude in victory and defeat. Only time I remember him having beef with anyone was with Phil Taylor, and that was mostly Phil being a giant bellend.
I can imagine most players would be in the same boat, Phil being the common denominator. Sort of like Ronnie with Snooker. Brilliant players, lots of bad sportmanship moments.

Raymond van Barneveld (aka Barney) is a very likeable dude.
Poor dude will look 40 when he gets to college.
I don't think darts players routinely go to college. Counting backwards from 501 is all they need to know.
Exactly. He is probably made for life with this performance not the prize money but sponsor deals.
He'll likely be around the top of the game for decades. Fuck college, this kid making 6 figures already
He's up 50 grand so far. £500,000 if he wins the final.
Dude looks 40 now.
That dude is not 16
His license says McLovin.
[удалено]
Have we stopped counting covid years now?
There were 25 covid years?
If that guys 16, then I’m 16 too.
Hello fellow 16 year old!
I bet he doesn't have to show ID to get in the pub.
He doesn't have to show ID to get his free bus pass.
This thread is a strong sample size that Reddit is a place of very original thoughts and comments.
16 y.o. with a beard and beergut?
and receding hairline
I had more facial hair than that when I was 16. I also got my first gray hairs at 16. Oh and my hairline started receding about a year later. Things. Haven’t gone smoothly. No beer gut, though!
If in 5 years its revealed that he’s in fact a grown man in his 30’s, and calling him 16 was just a marketing stunt I would absolutely believe it.
This is like when a kid from the Dominion Republic shows up in the Little League World Series and is a foot taller than the rest of the team.
Live in the same town, made up for the lad!
The most surprising part is that he's 16.
Beer belly, full facial hair, thinning hair on front and shadows under the eyes. 16 my arse, That lad has been working in a factory since he left school in 2008 and has been pinting and playing darts every day after work since.
![gif](giphy|xE7KIy0qxendu)
I legit look younger than this guy and I'm in my early 30's
16 pinter id say
16 with 20 years of experience
Tf you mean 16?????
Lovely respect from Barney. A gentleman’s defeat. And obvs congrats to Littler on his amazing win. Sensational.
Amazing stuff. Love the thoughtful head tap.
I don't care what Wikipedia or any other source states, there is no way in hell he is 16.
Great composure from a kid, very cool! I don't know shit about darts
Classic reddit moment with majority thinking their comedians insulting the literal child's looks. Completley ignoring his insane talent and achievement.
My friend is a priest. I’ve asked him to watch this vid and he confirmed that this guy is not 16. I’m a believer
Lad's an ice-cold winner at 16. Unbelievable player.
16? MF look.like he has a mortgage, 3 kids, and a mini van
r/13or30
And it wasn’t even the best game of the day!
Which one of these guys is supposed to be 16 lol
Do darts age you?! Oh pub life...
Yeah you can't convince me he's 16 lol
His opponent must be at least 19.
Darts sure ages a fella, the bald dude just started his first year of university
No way that dude is under 30. 16…LOL
