67alecto Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Cool stuff. In addition to some people being awesome athletes (like Damien Walters - a couple of his clips were in the video - he was the bald guy jumping over the car, jumping from the roof to the pads, jumping from one roof to another, etc)., some are awesome at CGI.The shot of LeBron making full court jump shots, for example, was from this commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnxIITeNftEA couple other of the trick basketball shots were also CGI.Good stuff though...the wheelchair flip was impressive.

67alecto Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Oh yeah...and I've done that between the legs shot in a tennis game. After Agassi and Courier did it in a couple, it was all the rage back in the early 90s. In practice, we'd drill for the situation where you are at the net and the ball is lobbed over. We'd usually close with several attempts at that shot...often with humorous results. I did manage it in a match once and won the point. Quote Repairing a lifetime of bad habits... Link to comment
