Indiana Pacers' Mascot Breaks Basketball Backboard At High School Game (VIDEO)

WATCH: Basketball Backboard Smashed By Mascot's Slam Dunk

The students at New Palestine High School, Indiana, were expecting a lot from the Indiana Pacers' mascot Boomer when he came to town this weekend.

But one thing they weren't expecting the man in a massive cat suit to do was break their gym's basketball backboard - as impressive as it looks on camera.

Forcing the high school game to move to a smaller, alternative gym, the glass-shattering trick catches everyone off guard - Boomer included.

What's especially impressive about the trick is that it manages to break the glass, the rim itself and the net too. Nice work, that giant cat!
