Maybe the guy who ran onto the field during the Cincinnati-Ohio State game Saturday was thinking "What's the worst that could happen?"

He probably didn't consider this.

Video captured by a fan shows OSU assistant strength coach Anthony Schlegel spin the guy around and throw him down so hard you have to wonder how the guy's lungs stayed inside his body.

Here's video of the encounter from another angle: 

A photo captured by Scott Reed shows Schegel with one arm around the guy's neck, one hand clenching the back of the guy's shirt and a seriously furious look on his face. You can even see a vein bulging in Schegel's neck.

Schlegel used to be a linebacker for the Buckeyes.

According to Bleacher Report, after the take-down former Ohio State head coach Earle Bruce shouted from the press box, "Best tackler we ever had."
