Entire plane watching World Cup apart from one lone Lord Of The Rings fan

Never have we related to someone more than this.

Football fever is well and truly upon us – even if you’re not a footie fan, it’s difficult to avoid the constant stream of matches, scores, and opinions. That is, unless you laugh openly in the face of societal expectations and enjoy the finer things in life, like one plane passenger who choseLord of the Rings: Return of the Kingover Australia v. France on 12 August.

Check out how dedicated some LOTR fans are!

Jacqueline Felgate, an Australian journalist on the same flight, caught the spectacular moment when cheers rang through the plane while one devoted fan cared only for the plight of Hobbits and Gandalf’s smiling face. In fact, if you ask us, Gandalf is smiling because he knows the power the Peter Jackson trilogy still has.

Since thevideowas posted online, people have been nothing short of obsessed with the “king”, as one commenter called them, who went their own way. Not only is their iconic indifference to the World Cup awe-inspiring, but the fact that the cheers ring out just when the Fellowship reunites is truly the best visual to explain the saying “perfect timing”.

No matter what continues to happen during this World Cup, it’s unlikely that anything will be captured that’s as truly inspirational, legendary, and glorious as being that individual who bows to no one.
