Yo Brad, the last two "pop flies" were meant to be, otherwise he'd be sitting there all day. That's how you end the drill. We did that as kids, just not with two balls or the time he did it. This guy is awesome. Probably throws like a girl and fields like a chump though.

This is for real. I have been able to do it since I was 10 years old and I will never put my back on the pitch back it is an amazing thing

Amazing film editing and amazing idea. As the sound track alludes, "No way" is right. Here's the proof…the video editor gets lazy at the very end of the video and leaves in the actual balls the batter hits – they are pop flies. Also look at the accuracy and most importantly for you statistical geeks, the repeatability of the ball hitting the first net. It hits in exactly the same spot like sniper from Afghanistan.

I’m going to call this fake. It looks like the video originated from a Youtube user named “eastondreamcrazy,” so it was possibly a commercial for Easton.

They also posted another video of them hitting clay pigeons as if he were skeet shooting.

It reminds me a little of the people who claimed they made the Mona Lisa using a nail gun. Keep your eyes open around 0:56.
