It’s not too often that Tom Brady comes under public scrutiny. Well, at least in terms of real world problems. But the six-time Super Bowl champion quarterback has come under fire recently.

Brady recently made a trip to Costa Rica with his family to enjoy the final days of summer before preparing for another NFL season — his 20th in the league. While vacationing, Brady channeled his inner daredevil, taking a cliffdive.

The problem? He was holding the hand of his 6-year-old daughter while leaping toward the water. While everyone made it safely into the water, Brady caught some heat for an “irresponsible” decision.

The Today Show posted the video:

Brady catches plenty of heat for being one of the most disliked players in the NFL — mostly because he wins. It’s not as often that he’s in the public eye for off-the-field antics.

This one caught some attention, though. Did Brady go too far? Or is this just an overreaction?
