First, watch the short clip.<\/p>\n<p>At first it does seem like Jordan is doing something strange\u00a0and maybe even inappropriate, but he&#8217;s not quite grabbing the kid&#8217;s skin through the clothes as much as he is the clothes.<\/p>\n<p>Then, Jordan bends down and almost looks to be scratching at Beau&#8217;s legs. It&#8217;s worth noting the young man&#8217;s non-reaction. It takes him several seconds to even turn around and\u00a0recognize what&#8217;s happening and when he does there&#8217;s no alarm.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Related<\/strong><\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/tasteofcountry.com\/nascar-greg-biffle-plane-crash-cause-investigation\/\" target=\"_blank\">Greg Biffle Was Not Flying His Plane at Time of Crash<\/a><\/p>\n<p>That helps build a case for the &#8220;stuck ice theory.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2026\/02\/17\/sports\/michael-jordan-video-splits-internet-after-viral-interaction-with-tyler-reddicks-son\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>New York Post<\/em><\/a> is one of several outlets who forwarded new video showing Beau celebrating with his dad.\u00a0Reddick pours water on\u00a0the boy as confetti falls.
