Via Destructoid, we found this great video about Jaap, a 66-year-old Dutch man who is probably the world's oldest Battlefield gamer. Jaap's squad put the video above together as a great tribute to the idea of being young at heart. Jaap has some pretty good moves as well. It also makes the point that gamers are more than malajusted kids hiding in their parents' basement.
My favorite quote from the interview: "First and foremost, I want to thank everyone for their kind words, nice messages and support. If I could, I would be a Grandpa to every single one of you!."
Unfortunately Jaap games on PSN, so he had to deal with being unable to hang out with his squad for a month and someone is probably using his credit card information right now, but if you want to add him his PSN name is ADHD_WACKO_JACKO.

That is great! Kudos to Jaap! And Juan, don't forget...<br /><br />Juan: "Let's get to the boat!"<br />Gabe: "I don't want to go to the boat. You always want to go to the boat. Let 's make a stand at the lake."<br />Juan: "The lake? Are you f---ing serious? The lake sucks!"<br />Gabe: "I am doing the lake!"<br />Juan: "Fine, we'll do the f---ing lake"<br /><br />Moments later...<br /><br />Juan: "Well, we are all dead. Great f---ing idea Gabe...Gabe?"<br /><br />-Gabe disconnects once again due to his spotty internet connection-
Gabes reply...<br /><br />Oh, sorry. I got distracted by my reflection in the water. My head look really big when the water ripples.
You know damn well that will be all of us in another 25-30 yrs. If I have that attitude when I'm older, I have lived a good life...except when Gabe is on my team. It would be more like this...<br /><br /><br />GABE, WHAT DA @#$! ARE YOU DOING OVER THERE! THE MUTHA-*%^#ING ZOMBIE IS RUNNING AFTER ME WHILE YOUR IN THE CORNER WITH YOUR THUMB UP YOUR @$$.<br /><br />ARRRRG! $#%@- YOU!!!!
