Twitter is going mad for this kid's water bottle trick at his school talent show

For his senior talent show, Mike Senatore from Charlotte, North Carolina, knew he wanted to do something a bit different.

And his act certainly stands out on the rota of acts posted by his school.

"Battle flipping"

The 18-year-old had been practicing his talent for about a year since he randomly discovered he could do it during a chemistry class. He continued perfecting it and on Tuesday morning took to the stage at Ardrey Kell High School in Charlotte.

It was his moment to shine.

The swagger, the confidence, the clean, calm execution. No wonder the audience loses its damn mind.

His friend Wesley Manning posted the moment to his Twitter account and it has since been retweeted over 45,000 times.

But Mike is taking his new-found Twitter fame in his stride. He's planning to study political science and doesn't expect this to the high point of his entire life, telling the Charlotte Observer:

“I can’t imagine it’s going to get bigger than this, as if my whole life is based on flipping bottles. I’m still just focused on college. It’s the end of senior year so I get to enjoy all of it.”

Enjoy it while it lasts, Mike.
