It’s one of the most infamous plays in sports history. It’s so well known, in fact, that it has made its way to Kenya.

Bill Buckner‘s error in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series has been replayed, reenacted and remembered in many, many ways since it occurred, but few are as unique as this one. A group of Kenyan students have reenacted the play — as well as Bob Stanley‘s wild pitch — in a video that has found its way to YouTube.

According to the YouTube description, a group of Kenyan students were “interested in making a movie about a famous American sporting event.” The description also states that the students chose Buckner’s error over the Music City Miracle after seeing both iconic plays on tape beforehand.
