The “Vampire Diaries” actress proves that she can handle big balls

On the Tuesday edition of The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon thought it was a good idea to challenge “Vampire Diaries” actress Nina Dobrev to a classic drinking game of beer pong. Except the balls were oversized, and so were the cups. The only thing that was normal was the glasses of beer the loser had to drink.

You don't get any points for guessing who won the drinking game, because, as usual, Jimmy Fallon came out second, despite a very good effort and an early lead.

While Nina struggled in a black dress and high heels to balance the ping pong balls (“these are volleyballs, by the way,” she told audiences), Fallon managed to dunk two balls right from the start.

But a couple of fumbles and some very good hits from the 25-year-old actress quickly brought the match to a tie. Fallon got a little too cocky and bragged he was going “for the win.” Sadly, he watched with clenched fists as his ball hit the side of a cup and sprung into the audience.

Dobrev casually strolled in and dunk her ball for the third time, leaving Fallon with egg on his face, while at the some time proving that she's got some ball skills her fans weren't aware of.
