    I want to believe it's real. So it's real.

    He is the Michael Jordan of batting practice.

    Come on guys, are we actually entertaining the idea that its real?

    Any of ToyCen's alien videos are more realistic than this.

    It's been debunked by a top rated comment via Youtube. In accordance with the prophecy.

    The giveaway is the verbage... 'hey check this out' and the 'no way! no way!'

    Keep it simple, more people will buy it.

    the ball would loose momentum just from the first bounce off one of those things and not to mention the accuracy, so hell no it's not real. That comes from years of experience playing wall ball. :)

    if you watch any one of the trampolines exclusively, you'll see the ball hitting the same spot every single time... still cool

    The amazing thing about it is how many people are gullible enough to consider that it might be real.

    I have only watched the first two seconds of the video and the "check this out" is already a dead giveaway of fakeness.

    Obviously fake. The guy tossing the ball doesn't have even have any pov that matches the cgi balls. I mean a good fake cgi would be if his eyes/head is following the balls.

    not need to wonder...just wait.

    if this is real, we will see him again.
    if this is fake, we won't.
