Trying to pick up girls while on camera is a generally a good way to make yourself seem like a bit of a d**k, but this guy gets a pass.

This American college student set himself the near impossible task of picking up girls using only the lines Marshawn Lynch, the Seattle Seahawks running back, has used in press conferences. If you haven't see any of Lynch's press conferences, let's just say he isn't what you'd call media friendly.

While the attempts aren’t always successful, they’re at least hilarious.
