NFL players have gone on to do very interesting things after they’ve retired from the league. Terry Crews went on to become a very popular actor and TV star. Peyton Manning would make some odd cameos in shows here and there. After conquering the world of one of the toughest sports on the planet, NFL players go on to showcase their unique talents. Interestingly, one Super Bowl-winning running back decided to venture onto another planet.

Per TMZ, Lynch took to the flamethrower like it was second nature and even yelled out Al Pacino’s iconic Scarface dialogue, “Say hello to my little friend!” while operating the machine.
