Manny Being the New Manny

For all the complaining people used to do about "Manny being Manny," this play from last night's game was really incredible. Here, Manny makes a great catch only feet from the outfield wall, takes another couple steps to climb the wall, high five's a Red Sox fan while atop the wall, and then returns to the field of play to "double-up" a base runner trying to get back to first.
I don't want to say Manny's the only one that could do something like this, but he's about the only one that would find himself in this position.
Here's the link to the video (which has already been pulled from YouTube because of copyrighting) and some pics from the catch:
