It's Cian Ward's two brothers and a few friends in most of it. Cian Ward makes a brief appearance. Class video. Took them 3 weeks to make the whole thing

Does he even take a shot, the only one I can see that could be him is the one at 0:32.

Or the one at the end breaking the window. Sounds like him there. Would know him, but no clue about his family. One of the lads does look like a much younger, slimmer version of him.

Didn't read the Star, but its rediculous if they try to claim its him :P

Ya it's a fake alright.

Was waiting for the doubters to be on. It took them three weeks to make this so why is there no way they could do this? Is it just because you couldn't?

Well if it took three weeks to make then it may have some authenticity.

It's all geometry really

The target of each shot (the hoop) is stationary and so are the walls, drain pipes etc.

So you need to hit the wall at a certain spot so that the ball is then directed toward the hoop, once you try it a few times then you discover where that spot is, once you have that down you then have to look at the speed that the ball travels at.

Now with all that knowledge in place you can start trying to execute the trick shot, and with the camera constantly rolling you may hit it one in 100 times and that's what you see in the video.

Fair play to them.

Well if it took three weeks I could:rolleyes:

So why are you so certain it's a fake? As Tod Umptious said, once you get the angle right, it's just a matter of trial and error with the force at which you kick it.

in fairness, there are a few shots where the flight of the ball looks sketchy and other times where the timing of it looks out of sequence with how it should be. its a good video, kinda like the american football fantasy files.

But why would they only fake one or two? Why not fake them all?

These vids always remind me of this.

If its fake, why do they bother? If it took three weeks, again, why do they bother?

The_Kew_Tour

the one at 1.54 is fake and that's one the easy ones...

still class video but just not believable
