I thought the same thing, a bowling ball to the head would not leave a kid moving. I also have to question as to why only one person ran to help and why it took so long.

I have to admit though, it does look real, hope it isn't.

I would've been laughing too hard to move. Seriously, lulz! Even if it's fake, lulz! The juggler is my hero!

Seriously, how stupid would a person have to be to run out when somebody was juggling bowling balls (assuming this is real). His genes are a detriment to the human race.

Hi, that's how all little kids are.

I hate when morons go accusing people of being stupid when they don't comprehend the situation.

Also, in with the "fake" crowd.

I'm going to have to at least think shenanigans, perhaps even call them.


I'm not quite sure if someone could juggle bowling balls that easily.

Yeah, that's a definite fake. Still funny, though.

How light are those balls? About 1kg?

Somewhere around there. There wasn't a lot of weight to be able to arc that easily. If those were actually bowling balls, they'd be around 10-12 lbs each and he wouldn't be hucking them like he was.

Some people are surprisingly strong. I didn't watch the video, because I refuse to watch videos - until my PC gets its ass i gear and fixes its sound. Dont tell me to fix it. I've tried :P

Watch it a few times from 17 seconds to 20. Right as the ball is about to hit, the camera jerks down slightly and the ball seems to jump down. Also, the child has a surprisingly large amount of forward momentum and his legs sprawl out like a doll's. Then the guy with the camera shakes it a lot and the next clear picture has the kid a few feet to the right with his legs in a different position. Funny, but fake.

Edit: Also, the sound seems a little messed up at that point.

There's surprising strength, and there's a violation of the laws of physics. The mass of the object thrown could not have equalled the mass of a 12-lb bowling ball.

Yeah, that's right.

Funny nonetheless.

Yeah, I noticed that, too. Funny, though. Good for a first-time shocker.
