NFL legend Tom Brady blasted as ‘irresponsible’ by fans and gave Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson ‘anxiety’ after jumping off cliff into water with six-year-old daughter

A SOCIAL MEDIA row has broken out after Tom Brady filmed himself launching off a high cliff with his young daughter.

The New England Patriots star held six-year-old Vivian’s hand as they leapt from rocks by a waterfall on holiday.

Predictably, the response was divided with some feeling it was an example of family fun whereas others were worried at how Brady seemed to pull his daughter, who fell unnaturally into the water.

One man to back the NFL legend was Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

The wrestling star turned actor joked: “You KNOW I have complete faith in you as a man, friend, player and father – but this just gave me anxiety. Geeezus.”

However others weren’t so charitable, replying to his Instagram video to profess their shock.

One commentor wrote: “Yeah don’t do this again.”

Another blasted Brady: “Absolutely the most stupid and dangerous thing for a 6 yr. old child to do. You should be ASHAMED.”

A concerned Instagram user added: “She’s your child Tommy! From what I see that wasn’t your best pass. You were a little off.”

While another posted: “Good way to end up in a wheelchair. Foolish.”

A number of famous faces from Harry Kane to Steph Curry posted laughing emojis at the clip.

Fellow American Football icon Brett Favre wrote: “She is a 10 but old dad gets a thumbs down.”

Brady also had many fans among the general public who failed to see what the fuss was about.

One commented: “So many haters. Let the guy parent his kids how he wants. Maybe if more parents were like Tom there would be less problems with kids not knowing how to deal with life.”

Whereas some felt Brady actually helped young Vivian: “He didn’t force her, his young daughter had last second hesitations and if he didn’t pull her with him while she was at the edge I think it could’ve been far worse.”

Another simply put: “Wasn’t that high for people to complain.”
