Either about 200 takes until he got one, or CGI'd.

Cool, but not that cool :tongue:

I wonder how much he practiced... and if he's really that good, why isn't he in the NBA or college or something.

If you look at the interview video above, they admit it sometimes takes them several attempts before they are successful. The video tells you about their approach to making the dozens of videos available on youtube.

Right, of course. At a court some time ago my buddy and I took turns trying to make half court shots. Neither of us are particularly good at basketball, but in about ten minutes one of us sunk one, nothing but net. If we had been taping the entire thing, and then edited out the dozens of air balls, it'd make for an impressive YouTube viddy.
