    See, hitting balls off the exact same spots on nets is nothing compared to hitting balls so hard they don't land. That's the really impressive part of this video.

    If you have to contemplate whether or not this video is real, you're a total moron.

    I agree that on the last trampoline that this is the case. But not the first trampoline. This looks like a mixture of real and fake.

    obviously fake.... just watch where the ball hits the first thing.... it hits it in the exact same spot every time....and the chances of a person hitting that same spot like 10 times in a row...not possible

    the guy tossing the ball blew it by not synching his head movements to the ball. and the ball physics are way, way too cartoony. plus the camera operator's acting is kind of hammy.

    Usually the best way to debunk these things is if they are cgi, they almost always forget to add proper shadows. I can't quite tell for sure, but I'm fairly certain I don't see shadows on the ground following the balls.
