Jim & John Harbaugh Deliver Crazy Dual Interview That Might Just Bend Your Mind Into A Pretzel

Published|Updated

Jim Harbaugh returned to the NFL after winning the National Championship at Michigan. The Los Angeles Chargers hired him to replace Brandon Staley. That means both Harbaugh brothers – Jim and John – are in the league together again. 

Of course, the two met in the Super Bowl back in 2013. John's Baltimore Ravens defeated Jim's San Francisco 49ers 34-31 in Super Bowl XLVII. Plenty of attention during the game went to the brothers' parents, Jack and Jackie Harbaugh. More on the eldest Harbaugh in a moment. 

The 49ers and Jim Harbaugh parted ways just one season after the Super Bowl appearance, and he headed back to his alma mater to coach Michigan. 

But, he's back in the NFL again! Despite the fact that he and his brother coach teams in the AFC – and thus will be competing with one another to reach the Super Bowl – there is nothing but love between the two.

It seems much of that stems from their father, Jack. Jack seems like an incredibly fascinating human being. 

The Harbaugh brothers sat down for a dual interview and told some hilarious stories about their upbringing, and then John ended it with a mind-bender of a paradox… 

"What is an enthusiasm unknown to mankind? It's unknown to mankind. It's another realm. It's a spiritual thing." 

WATCH: 

I bet these guys are SUPER fun at parties. Just spend a few minutes basking in what exactly John Harbuagh is saying that Jack Harbaugh was saying. Can you even fathom it? Me neither. 

Well, whatever realm in which these two exist, it must be a realm packed with incredible football. Both are among the best coaches in all of football, and it's great to have them both back coaching in the NFL.
