And by that we mean he’s doing it with safety professionals all around him. So, don’t try this at home!

During a recent shoot for Red Bull, Kris wanted to show off what it means to play third base, a.k.a. the “hot corner.”

“It’s called the hot corner cause you have barely any time to react to the ball. You really got to be on your feet and have that quick reaction,” Kris says in the lead up to the photo shoot.
