Real or Fake..... ( Warning Language )

Impossible Bball Shot With Baseball Bat

Impossible Bball Shot With Baseball Bat*Video


Simple Poll.... what do you think...

It is plausible but they would have to do that a few times to make it work. But I think its real.

Absolutely fake. The trajectory of the ball off the bat is a little bit left to right. The ball leaves the frame and then comes back into the frame moving a bit right to left.

I think that happen cause of the spin put on the ball from the bat....
He did hit the ball low to get that kind of an arch....

As an elementary P.E. teacher. I know that a kickball off a bat would not go that far (yeah, I have tried it). That would hurt your wrists pretty badly to actually hit it that far.

He hit the bottom of the ball putting spin on it that would explain the flight path just like a golf ball.

Thats true I never thought of impact rating...

But I dont think the hoop is as far as it looks on cam. Have you ever gone outside and taken a picture of the mountains that are like 25 miles away. In your picture they turn out to look like 50 miles away....
