Yeah I'm skeptical too but I'm not sure how they would have faked these. It's hard for me to fathom anyone being that accurate...especially since I have a hard time hitting a ball twice in a row, never mind making it go where I want it to go.

Something is not right with this. Possible maybe....... Notice how the wind is strong and constant. Anybody ever shot skeet or trap on a windy day, it can effect your score in a negative way can't imagine it can help his accuracy with a ball and bat.

If I was a skeet I'd be afraid of these guys, but in reality true or false??????? who cares it is good watching either way

I can see it being possible.

The balls are not moving that fast so someone with excellent hand/eye coordination may be able to do it.

It is all a matter of angles similar to pool but with a moving target like tennis but smaller contact area.

It didn't look like the ball was moving too fast and I have seen some amazing shots by Jr. College Tennis players and Olympic table tennis players that most people would think are impossible.

I have also seen where someone did a quick draw with a revolver and shot an aspirin. It was on a Discovery or TLC show a couple years ago.

These video's may be faked but I do believe what is accomplished is possible.
