Viral Video: Thai Boy Takes An Unexpected Nap Mid-Soccer Game
Sleep is crucial for the body to heal and carry out essential functions. When your sleep is disrupted or insufficient, it can lead to overwhelming fatigue. This exhaustion might hit you during your daily routines, significantly affecting your performance. A recent video circulating on Instagram vividly illustrates this point, showing a young child falling asleep on a soccer field—while still standing.
According to Seasia News, a South Asian news outlet, the child was reportedly too excited about the game to sleep the previous night. Fast forward to game day, and the child dozed off right in the middle of the field as the game continued around him.
The other players maneuvered around the sleeping child as though he were an immovable object on the pitch. Even the referee, who approached to check on the boy, realized he simply needed a quick nap . After a brief sleep, the young player rejoined the game.
While this incident underscores the importance of maintaining a proper sleep schedule, the comments on the video took a lighter tone.
One user commented, “Me every Monday to Friday.”
Another joked, “That’s my lost son right there.”
A third remarked, “I bet he has a super good heavy meal.”
“Legend has it he is still sleeping,” read another comment.
On a more serious note, some users suggested the boy might suffer from “sleep apnea.”
The Cleveland Clinic describes sleep apnea as a condition that interferes with your breathing during sleep. Your brain tries to keep you alive by waking you enough to breathe, but this prevents you from getting restful sleep. Over time, this condition can lead to serious health issues.
In severe cases, it can cause daytime drowsiness, making everyday activities more challenging.
The amount of sleep you need depends on your age. The CDC offers the following guidelines:
0 to 3 months: 14–17 hours
4 to 12 months: 12–16 hours daily, including naps
1 to 2 years: 11–14 hours daily, including naps
