Behind the back! Incredible table tennis shot

[tousisat1]

WTF, I was in Homemade robot?

[chrissjohnzz]

nice move.

[MrXIV1]

we need a 120Hz camera for this

[1dkwhattoput]

how the fuck lol.

[Rwroblewski27]

O.o how did i get from who's line is this to... well this

[MrPhilosophicalpanda]

The only explanation I can think of for the coke is that maybe he's diabetic...

[halite001]

Wow great shot! I should start drinking more Coca Cola.

[Chullack]

The Coca Cola made him do that backhand!

[GangRival]

Am I the only one amazed at how effortless he did that? o_O

[gapingtarantula]

why am i watching ping pong...

[CSCrocks3]

@gapingtarantula ikr

[Kwonghun]

@gapingtarantula because it's coooool :) :D

[DnB758]

@gapingtarantula because ping pong is freaking awesome?

[Joakimsonn]

@gapingtarantula because its awesome duuh

[grnman86]

the only sport where instead of drinkig water to quench your thirst you drink coca cola.....

[CarusoV3i]

@grnman86 i was thinking the same lol

[reezwa]

@grnman86 coca cola is good cuz it gives you strength(it contains a lot of sugar) ..

[grnman86]

@reezwa really? its terrible for any sports event, sugar dehydrates you extremely fast making you more thirsty and hence performing poorly because of lack of water, if they want to get energy they should have a better drink like Gatorade or some performance drink that actually hydrates you with water and useful electrolytes, Gatorade was specifically designed to help provide that boost that players need and replenish the lost sustenance during their workout, coke has too much sugar, simple

[MINICLIPGAMER]

@grnman86 Electrolytes don't help you at all.

[grnman86]

@MINICLIPGAMER In oral rehydration therapy, electrolyte drinks containing sodium and potassium salts replenish the body's water and electrolyte levels after dehydration caused by exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, diaphoresis, diarrhea, vomiting, intoxication or starvation. Athletes exercising in extreme conditions (for three or more hours continuously e.g. marathon or triathlon) who do not consume electrolytes risk dehydration (or hyponatremia). - from Wikipedia

[MINICLIPGAMER]

@grnman86 Implying that wikipedia is a reliable source.

[grnman86]

@MINICLIPGAMER yes i know exactly what it is and who writes it, but if you also look at the references they come from legitimate sources, and even if you just google electrolytes you can get a full explanation on how they work, all im saying is that gatorade and other sports drinks seem the better choice than coca cola....

[MINICLIPGAMER]

@grnman86 For table tennis? No.

[grnman86]

@MINICLIPGAMER so the sweating and running around isnt a work out?

[thesameandnotthesame]

@grnman86 some hockey players drink coke, Chara from the Boston Bruins was during the playoffs.

[kevindagreat95]

@grnman86

its not a sport...

[mario51man]

@kevindagreat95 how is it not?

[smartnerd1]

@kevindagreat95 dude its harder than most sports, no bullshit

[kandot84]

@kevindagreat95 if its not a sports,,what is it?have you play ping pong before?

[MegaMagicboy123]

pie pie pie pie pie pie pie pie pie pie pie pie piepie pie pie pie pie pie pie lol amazing shot. that is pure skill. Thumbs up if u agree he really good

[CarsonSkyler]

0:13 - 0:15 did he blow the ping pong ball? As a serve.

[justintzou]

@CarsonSkyler no your spin in in your fingers first to add more spin as you hit the serve.

[TheAedion]

wtf is he drinking coke? lol

[TheTieDyeSpy]

Haha only in table tennis will you see the athletes drinking soda rather than gatorade/powerade [x

[suceos]

enemy should have raised arms, and just gift him this point ! awesome xD

[MrSkateboarding98]

@Posseidon99Jeus

You're the most stupid asshole , I've

ever seen .

[lilsk8erbro]

Man I could really go for a coke right now.....

[khoo85]

u have to drink coke to play like this..sorry pepsi

[2142543]

PING PONG TALKIN BLUES 2 IS NOW UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE....THANKS....DAN

[popsecretkettlecorn]

AND he wins the point. what a bastard.

[firendable]

Does he really drink coke!?

[Poseidon99Jeus]

[wewew2012]

[bassjammerz]

master it and you'll never have to backhand again.

[SirFootball90]

@bassjammerz ...it was a backhandshot ^^

[SuperFloydTT]

@SirFootball90 no

[SirFootball90]

@SuperFloydTT yes ^^. if u look very carefully, you'll see that he used the red side...ok :-)

[SuperFloydTT]

@SirFootball90 Yes, and red side is the side he uses in forehand ;)

[xBarneyCalhounx]

this is actually an advertisement for coke

[MrKozvetlen]

3 shit man

[Kevolakers2424]

☆☆☆☆☆

[arccazz]

This is one fine fella.. :D

[7Kreis]

I can do it without coke.

[RaiClan]

Lol, they punk each other out before table tennis

[0610991761015]

a provali lika sto pije kocu u pauzi.....:) hahahahahahahahaha

[baxtian]

A sport where you can drink coke when u need to rehydrate is not a real sport.

[98nfsmw98]

@baxtian No, that guy is just dumb.

[skeptiker1337]

@baxtian and now what? Nobody cares, whether you think table tennis is a sport or not. It looks awesome and it's a hell lot of fun to play, if you dont suck too much.

[Cribleet]

@baxtian Coke has carbohydrates and caffeine in it, which are both good for energy and endurance respectively. NICE.

[cokeANDmentos321]

@Cribleet Drink a coke and go run some laps and tell me you don't feel like shit...

[Cribleet]

@cokeANDmentos321 It very much depends on the individual.

[FudgeOwn]

@baxtian lol...that comment doesn't even make sense...

[EbonMaster]

@baxtian its not a real sport unless you say so. gotcha.

[jaystir]

@baxtian He's not rehydrating. He's taking in carbs for energy. We do the same for Mountain biking. There are all kinds of carb gels, shakes and just plain liquid carb drinks. Just goes to show you who's an athlete and who's not. :0

[azidio9i]

0:17 for the amazing back rub

[mazhacker9911]

i thought only red bull gives a wing o.0

[Drag0nwhite]

@mazhacker9911 well, he has not any wings

[gerocampo1]

@mazhacker9911 it is iligal to drinck

[ManUtd2560]

Lol I thought that was Marat Safin at first xD

[xhamtarox]

Man, he should advertise for Coco Cola. I'm already convinced that drinking Coke allows me to do those awesome shots.

[DinuMariusJohnCena26]

faceam si eu deastea cand eram in vana;)

[Fernandez218]

i wanna see him do a table-tennis between-the-legs shot now.

[rfan]

coke + ping pong = awesome

[jovin281]

coke ^_^

[MrTennisMenace]

Coke is bad for your play lol

[Junewe]

Haha, he takes a coke and then he does that trick? That's just possible in pingpong! :)

[busoLostop]

that was how all ping pong should be played

[nawaz2kx]

i can do that shot but not as good as him though

[tabletennisHD]

Isnt schlager good at that behind the back shot too?

[supermuzza13]

Coke won't help him

[pengy94]

Oh Shucks! i've never in my life seen someone do that in a match! too amazing to be true! i'm gonna remember that name- Fejer Konnerth :) unbelievable!

[TheManinMoscow45]

Drinking coke because of the sugar is a godsend in the midst if a match. I drink Gatorade or Arnold Palmer. And all those health nuts glaring at me while I play just make me laugh. When you play, any sugar these drinks give you gives you the energy to burn off DOUBLE.

[kizaman]

@TheManinMoscow45 it makes you feel like shit though after a while.

[montenegrin2010]

Coca Cola during a pro sporting event?

[TheVideocapturer]

That was sick,.

[EdMajinLee199999]

coke... what a noob

[parkouras93]

WOW

[sneeko27]

I love table tennis, but it's hard to justify this being a sport when one of the top athletes rehydrates himself with Coca Cola in between matches.

[kmml1972]

@sneeko27 they are drinking coke for a purpose, it gives them what other drink doesnt give its been clinical prooven...top table tennis players at one time in their career must be in a better shape than a soccer or a basketball player...only top professional players drink coke while playing....its strange i know...but it helps em alot...

[cmonutube]

@kmml1972 lol wtf? its obviously product placement... they get paid to drink coke

[kizaman]

@kmml1972 wtf are you smoking...i play table tennis and coke definately not something you should drink when your playing. it does give you the energy at first, but that sensation is quickly gone, and you feel worse off after.

[BrotherTree1]

thats surperb reaction. ive returned smashes before with a no look backhand flick return for a passing shot, but thats nothing. this is in a rally where that ball is like 150 kph and quickly moves behind his back and gets it around. thats crazy. ima try practice that now xD.

[vinnen6]

I actually had someone perform this trick on me twice in one match, it's so demeaning to your opponent.. He lost the points because it wasn't that hard to win the point afterwards. I won from him that match :)

[zsebtelep]

never seen aníthing before.

[jayjaymatt]

schlager was like woah wtf?! lol

[pokemon17007]

@CerebralPrince10 only a bottle. may b

[Bollinger1984]

@CerebralPrince10

yes and he smokes too

[bartek4443]

@CerebralPrince10 Well that's not so bad considering Chen Qi and ZJK smoke lol

[luf4rall]

@CerebralPrince10 maybe its flat coke.

[zakamooza]

@CerebralPrince10 he needs sugar

[firendable]

@CerebralPrince10 yes?

[Wronglane90]

@CerebralPrince10 oh yeah thats how he does it and after the match he pukes

[DJVice909]

@CerebralPrince10 why not?



[firendable]

@CerebralPrince10 yes, so`?

[umnomedeutilizador]

@CerebralPrince10 it's really common among table tennis players, the cafeine helps our reflexes.

[CerebralPrince10]

@umnomedeutilizador

interesting!

[umnomedeutilizador]

@CerebralPrince10 no that much, but try playing sports after half a bottle and you'll know the difference.

[Stuffcakes]

I saw it once in a match in my competition. Its so humiliating and you really get the edge over your opponent if you fool with someone this way.

[tlkx1]

heheheh, but this is good :)

[tyoungos]

The trickster Fejer-Konnerth won this point and the game, but the former world champion Schlager won the match. There is no shortcut to success. Don't fool yourself!  ☆☆☆☆☆

[SauseBrause]

no schlager has won u fool...

[KillerKoala1302]

@tyoungos how do you do the stars?

[Branovix]

@KillerKoala1302 copy his stars

[wewew2012]

@tyoungos we all know that..the point is hitting it behind the back!!!! champions can't do that...skills does..

[tedbratton]

true athletes drink soda

[millionairejh]

i dont think that happens off of instinct, he musta planned on that before the point even started, cuz he wanted to just poop on his opponent

[Zankuex]

oh theres somthing in that coca cola

[uddaside]

saw paul drinkall do this shot at a grand prix thought i was seeing things....... now i know i was'nt

[TableTennisDaily]

haha i member that.. against terry young wernt it? lol

[uddaside]

nah this was against some else about five years ago, i heard all the hype about him so i watched his match then he did that shot. at the time i thought to myself to lay off the booze.....

[TableTennisDaily]

haha joka! i pulled of the shot once in training! complet fluke tho.. edge of the bat haha! but i have few freinds who do them ease lol

[tabletennisperson]

looool then u live in england?

[uddaside]

yep but i dont drink tea

[ersguterjunge467]

i hab das live im i-net gesehn und dachte wtf???

[halfbreedking2]

that guy is a legend haha

[Opalance]

lol, Schlager, who has been around forever and seen everything, was like "WOAH WTF!" and stumbling to return it, he was already walking off to celebrate.

[Schland2008]

thankssss for this vid. seen this live on the zdf stream. one of the sickest shots ive ever seen.

[inferno2506]

he is smoking...

and he drinks coca cola :D

during the matches ^^

[theKINGroby1]

a nice movie

[StephanieMcMahon74]

Great!

[Maxengarze]

I actually talked to ZFK after the match and he didn´t think that boll was that much of a deal, he hade done it many times before. He was really cool about it.

[crjlang]

what is with (timo) boll? i don't understand ;-)

[alfimausi]

Ich war als Volunteer bei der EM dabei und unter anderem auch bei diesem Spiel live in der Halle, genauer gesagt, nur 5 Meter vom Court weg :) Die Halle hat getobt bei diesem Wahnsinnspunkt von Fejer-Konnert. Bei dem Spielstand im 7. Satz bringt Fejer so einen Wahnsinnspunkt... Jeder, der auch in der Halle dabei war, wird dieses Spiel, vor allem diesen phänomenalen Punkt von Konnert, wohl nie vergessen.

Das wird wohl ein Klassiker werden, wie der, wo Timo Boll den Schläger wechselt im Spiel

[lpsirhc]

6. satz wars

[Pdaevnlies]

Coca cola gives energy :D

[Tischtenniscrack95]

habs live im fernseher gesehn

war n sehr sehr knappes spiel

[hwud1]

AND THAT WAS SLOWMOTION !!!

wow !

[funchristian]

Ich war auch live dabei, Das Spiel war echt oberste Spitze. Aber der Punkt war natürlich der Klassiker. Schade, dass es nicht gereicht hat.

[kerni1983]

Ich war gestern live dabei und es war eines der besten Spiele des Tages, wobei mir dieser phänomenale Punkt wohl ewig in Erinnerung bleiben wird.

[ttSebastian]

Amazing :D

[david93fcb]

yeah!!

he played a good match, to bad that he lost

[jkillashark]

Is Konnerth diabetic? What's going on? Drinking Coke DURING the match? Either tsk tsk or it makes sense.

That was pretty sweet though, never saw it happen in a serious point.

[Zombido]

when you don't feel powerful, you need sugar. So what is better than a Coke during the match :-P?

[MDSguy]

yeah i found it unusual for him drinking coke. Is it bad to drink soft drink as a top level pro?

[stiltersteve]

A friend of mine plays high level soccer and often in the last couple of minutes if they need energy they will drink flat coke as it gives u such a burst of energy and because the fizz is gone it wont make you feel bloated,

[sbslusher]

@stiltersteve :02 I see carbonation

[sallom899]

ROFL HAHAHAHA Coke XD

[MDSguy]

my goodness, ive never seen that happen AND the guy winning the point!

[ZeRoBrain993]

unfortunatelly konnerth lost ;(

[RupertGriffin1]

Ha schlagers coach looked stunned
