Michigan Football Players Recreate 'The Circle Of Life' [VIDEO]

The dog days of summer are officially here. If you are a college football player, I would have to imagine there really isn't too much to do at all.

If you aren't working out or trying to improve your game, what else is there?

A prime example is a video that Michigan QB John O'Korn tweeted out Wednesday afternoon.

This scene might look very familiar to you. It's the famous scene from "The Lions King" when Simba is raised for all the animals to see.

Instead of Simba, what appears to be a student is lifted up in the training room for all to see. The video was given the hashtag #Summer16 so you can tell the days are going by pretty slow for members of the Michigan football team.

The video is actually pretty clever and well thought out. Hopefully, O'Korn and his teammates will recreate other iconic scenes from movies. What would you like to see them act out next?
