Watch: Paul Mescal slammed in the ring

Watch as Paul Mescal takes a pounding in the ring as he celebrates his 25th birthday.

Normal People's Paul Mescal took a birthday beating at an Australian boxing gym this week.

The actor, who turned 25 on Tuesday, made a trip to the Bondi Boxing Club on his big day and volunteered to act as a human punching bag for a procession of young boxers.

Footage of his pounding was uploaded to the gym's Instagram account alongside the message: "Happy birthday Paul Mescal"
