fake? how can be a fake? you're fake

[orochno2]

Yeah, two offensive players had the right to stand there (or at least, that's how it is in Europe)

But I guess they didn't bother to do so. Too bad for them, they could have prevented this buzzer shot ^^

$up it's me Jeff Lionka, i am the kid who shot it!!! Everybody hit like!!

[jakeisarake]

yea its real, i was on the team that got beat by it. it was the most bullshit thing ever

[thepopesmokesdope2k6]

bet he acted like he knew it would go in lolz

[sefccms93]

I go to clay chalkville high and this was def. not fake....broke my heart lol.

[kidies1]

who gives a fuck about the physics of it...

im shure the kid didnt sit there for hours thinking of the best way to throw it, he threw the ball and it went in, im shure hes happy xD

[dubrava]

it's quite possible do this like sitting down, but standing and swing no problem..peace of cake, just a lot of luck, he should get a lutria ticket..lucky day

wth are you talking about? he's not throwing a rock and he's not a bulldozer. everything fits.

it's possible to throw the ball strong enough that it begins its decent midway through the court and end it on the basket.

Brain320 knows what he's talking about

[Brain320]

he didn't swing the arm alone, if you look at the clip again you can see he put the energy of his all body into it. Hips,legs,back and both arms, yeah both as he swinged the other one to get more out if it.

It's a perfectly normal shot the guy just had a lot of luck because while throwing the ball that far(or even further) is trivial, hitting the basket requires a lot of luck.

I can't imagine how somebody with your alleged qualifications can claim this to be physically impossible lol

"that's a friggin basketball we're talking about here, not a rock."- says a guy whoose argument earlier was a bulldozer...

and you still don't have anything to say about the swing, which can't generate enaugh speed to throw the ball across court so...

take off your glasses Schreech, take your ass to the court, make that limp-ass swing and see for yourself.

[DMurdock]

wrong!

casino dealers are agile, yes, but their hands go no faster than 10kph. their fingers just switch directions really fast. and they have fast hands, not fast arms.

bigger objects create bigger force but you have to take into account how much force they use for themselves.

i play football and when i want to make a long pass, i kick fast, not strong. that's a friggin basketball we're talking about here, not a rock.

Oh. And with things like these...

physics > common sense
