The ball goes straight up into the air when he throws it.

Two things:
1) No.
2) If he didn't throw that ball, whoever did has a very bright future.

[edit] I was wrong :bow:

If I didn't see it I wouldn't have ever believed it. The guy has wheels. Though it could be some kind of edit job....

Looks pretty fake to me. The trajectory of his throw goes off to his right then someone else throws a ball from behind the camera.

^ this

I did that as a kid, but with a baseball to practice catching fly balls. Only mine went straight up, WAY up. And a few times they'd have to be chased down. Great practice.

Definitely. The trajectory he threw the ball at no way it travels that far.

Also. Look at his throwing hand in the second pic, you don't end with your hand in that position especially when you throw the ball that far.

I was completely fooled on this one.

Apparently making fake videos about your talents is the way to go now a days... Laloosh says it's real!

Laloosh is a great man, even if gullible.

Better?

Gullible I am. Clearly.

I saw this on the news as a legit story to. :lol:

Similar but different vids...

I'm looking for the 2nd video now.
Story goes that his coach saw this vid and didn't believe he really did it, coach had him do it again.
Coach made his own video of the kid.
Not sure if I can find the coaches video but it was reported on a couple of the local news stations in Houston.

Here's another one I found while looking.

Ok. Here's the one with the coach.

Edit: not saying it's real, just giving y'all a little more info to mull over.

Thanks for that. The second video where he throws it can definitely be real. He threw it significantly less far and it looked normal. The one where he is wearing purple just doesn't look right.

He got to meet Deion Sanders and 2 passes to the draft out of it. It's certainly being reported as real.

I actually watched it and think it's real.
