Children. First they were slinging coffee from the ripe old age of five and now they're expertly tossing pizza dough to a soundtrack of Moves Like Jagger. Here's a video of a seven year old from Jersey City tossing a pie in his father's pizzeria and, even though he's barely taller than the counter, he is all over it: one-handed, two-handed, behind-the-head moves and a little bit of nonchalant mugging for the camera. He's maybe not up to par just yet with the crazy freestylers from the World Pizza Games, but apparently the boy's father is looking into getting him formal training, as "sponsored pizza throwers can earn up to $250,000 a year from competitions."
