The thing wasnt one long take, true. It was edited together. But that was all. The rest is real.

The ball doesnt appear to cast a shadow at all....

Some of the moves was soo gravity defying it's not even funny.. I'm inclined to believe he shot some scenes with glue on the ball <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

OR it was very lightly glued, see he makes the swings and such pretty slow and when he makes the ball leave the stick to the ground it gets some force, enough to make it jump off...

That_Annoying_Kid · February 2004

my bet is it's real, and he still has good ball handling skills even if the "sticky" parts are "faked"

centrifigal force and way to much time make for interesting combos

BigMadSteve · February 2004

Oh em gee that's amazing! Apart from the cuts I believe it's real. I'm a pretty good card handler but I'd probably run away scared if he moved onto cards.

Let's get this straight, it's not a hockey stick. It's not an ordinary ball and I think it's not even street hockey <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

I don't know what's the sport in english, floor hockey(?), though we play/used to play it quite often in school. It's inside sports anyway.

Uses a plastic/carbon matrix stick like this:

and a very light plastic ball like this:

And I believe it's not faked. I magine the tricks are possible, concidering I've seen quite awesome stunts done by some of my student fellows too <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Ok, I watched that at the normal speed a few time an then in slowmo a some more times and then some. And then I watched it speed up. That man is a phsyco. I too am a little suspect about the lighting changing several times during the same scence, that is probably editing good takes. But that could just be the sun dissapearing behind a cloud or the lighting in the room being played around with. Apart from that most of it looks real.
I gotta say this guy is awesom who ever he is. Edited or not.

And I've also got the rubix cube in.. sometime fast, around 17 seconds I guess, but there's no official timer :|

I'm sure it's not. But if you think it's taped, then it's pretty hard when it's on the floor and you do it in .00001 of a second to do it.

Awesome dude, just awesome.

taboofires · February 2004

Okay, look: he swings the stick like he's chopping a log. And take a look at when he passes it between his legs, and the stick pretty much hits the floor. Those are not recoverable. Even if his stick was a semicircle and he swung it at 500mph it still wouldn't work.

We should get a poll going on this. ^_^
