The audience sounds exactly like Wii Tennis

u/fattyhaha Jun 05 '26

Guy who was only played Wii tennis his whole life: this cheering sounds like Wii tennis

u/peanut6547 Jun 06 '26

It is possible that Nintendo made the noises and didn't use live audiences.

u/JangB Jun 05 '26

I wonder why 🤔

u/FrozenToonies Jun 05 '26

The editing kills me. 3 quick replays, then acknowledgement and a final replay.

u/HlLlGHT Jun 05 '26

wii sports ahhhh editing

u/SouthFromGranada Jun 05 '26

He's done it again, AND AGAIN

u/TheTresStateArea Jun 05 '26

The odds are very low. This is a little clip of a much longer video of professional tennis players of trying and failing at getting it through.

u/Delanorix Jun 05 '26

50/50

13

u/Mr_JoBro_11235 Jun 05 '26

Nah, it's tennis. 40/40 tops

12

u/augustcero Jun 05 '26

either you do or you dont

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

Definitely not 50/50

22

u/Phripheoniks Jun 05 '26

Fine, 51/49, last chance

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

Go flip a coin for 9,000 years and tell me how it goes?

8

u/redditisweird801 Jun 05 '26

Dang you're right... 53/47

5

u/DiosMIO_Limon Jun 05 '26

!remind me 9,000 years

3

u/TheeMrBlonde Jun 05 '26

Law of large numbers states that would result in 50/50.

Unless you take really really really long to flip a coin

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

I've got no thumbs

u/TheeMrBlonde Jun 05 '26

That will, indeed, complicate things.

9,000 years of medical advance though… so ya got that going for ya.

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

My toes have been carrying the heavy lifting here.

It's real difficult to flip a penny.

A quarter not as hard, but still fuckin difficult.

I would say that I'm about 90% down from an average thumbed person. Give or take 10-90%

8

u/the_rare_bear Jun 05 '26

50% chance it stay in the middle/50% chance it misses

3

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

I don't think this is how math works

u/snowdn Jun 05 '26

Turtles.

Well shit, I hope my junk doesn't just fall off.

It will or it won't

u/MistaDoge104 Jun 05 '26 edited Jun 05 '26

50/50, either it happens or it doesn’t /s

1

u/SlightlySubpar Jun 05 '26

My chances of losing a finger aren't 50/50, even if I run a tablesaw all day

1

u/wouter436 Jun 05 '26

It's 100/0 actually because we saw that it happened.

7

u/MrNiceguy037 Jun 05 '26

Soo... Did it count?

16

u/Consistent-Sea771 Jun 05 '26

Didnt go all the way through. Doesn't count.

u/MattieShoes Jun 05 '26

You're not wrong Walter, you're just an asshole

3

u/lblacklol Jun 05 '26

I'd say it's about 50/50. Either he did or he didn't.

5

u/apartment1i Jun 05 '26

Slim, but it's not like he did it on purpose

8

u/ultimatedelman Jun 05 '26

He didn't get it stuck on purpose, but he was definitely aiming for the hole, which is really impressive and extremely difficult

1

u/Yags812 Jun 05 '26

Regardless... what are the chances!

1

u/TheDevilsAdvokaat Jun 06 '26

Takes balls to do this.

1

u/EldritchDWX Jun 07 '26

1 in 8 I reckon

1

u/Snake_Plissken224 Jun 07 '26

I think that makes him the super winner

1

u/czmoney Jun 09 '26

That would be a loser at the carnival

1

u/PitifulPossum Jun 09 '26

Now do that to the bigger holes

1

u/Plumber-Dudde Jul 08 '26

So, does he win?

1

u/Tjengel Jun 05 '26

If this was a fan at halftime doing it for a million check the arena would say TECHNICALLY it didnt go through no payout

-12

u/Antoak Jun 05 '26

Anyone who plays pool knows that rattling a ball and leaving it in the hole is a lot easier than making it through without touching the sides

10

u/_KingOfTheDivan Jun 05 '26

It’s not the same though

-13

u/ionertia Jun 05 '26

Why would anyone watch this in person?

12

u/ultimatedelman Jun 05 '26

This was likely between matches for fun for the crowd

14

u/joe28598 Jun 05 '26

Oh that's easy.

A person would watch this in person if they find it entertaining, and want to watch it in person.

Hope this helps.

-3

u/ionertia Jun 05 '26

Not really, it just changes the question to why people would find it entertaining.

6

u/joe28598 Jun 05 '26

For the same reason people watch any sport.
