Well played. Oldest trick in the TEACH YOUR GRANDSON PING PONG book.

I watched this the other day before it made it to videosift and thought to myself, Amazons programmers must not be too bright when each picker has one of those handhelds and should know their current location and optimize picks based on location vs ping ponging people all over the warehouse and like one person said being in row 50 and being given 10 secs to get to a row in the 70's is stupid.... Running in the workplace is usually frowned upon for safety reasons and thats what it would take while pushing a cart...

I watched closely as both of my sons were born and I can confirm this is exactly what happened; they launched out of my wife like ping pong balls... except with more hair.

Calling him out on #1, he asked "what is this Object (in the cylinder)?". Honey and ping pong balls are not a single object.

Also the bicycle question, you need a rear sprocket about twice the size (or larger) of the front one to negate the wheel/crank ratio. Only custom bikes made for this question would have that gearing...so technically he's right but no one will have those results. (Edit:with the possible exception of Krusty, because his crank may be larger than his tiny wheel)

The ping-pong zoom on the empty chair, LOL.

The world today seems absolutely crackers,
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.
It's depressing and it's senseless, and that's why...
I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today.
You'd better learn to like them; that's what I say.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They come from a long way overseas,
But they're cute and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese food.
The waiters never are rude.
Think of the many things they've done to impress.
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.

So I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese thought,
The wisdom that Confucious taught.
If Darwin is anything to shout about,
The Chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

So, I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please

This idea has been around for a long time. Many years ago (many, many) I read about a proposal to cover all the resevoirs of the southwest with ping pong balls.

It's one of those games that's fun to play with your friends in the back yard until that one super competitive dick comes around, takes it way too seriously and ruins it for everyone. Then it becomes a "sport" rather than a game. Consider: volleyball, softball, ultimate frisbee, bowling, ping pong, curling, Starcraft, and so on.

Interesting that he chose that analogy.

If someone said to me he's the 'Bruce Lee playing ping pong of archery', I would take it to mean it's all faked. (Bruce Lee never played ping pong with nunchaku, it's a well known fake).

I asked a friend of mine about it. He has represented his country in archery, so I trust his opinion on it.

Paraphrased:

Yeah, it's real.
No, it's not that impressive.

He didn't "rediscover" any of the techniques he claimed to. Most of them have been known for ages, and the change for modern archery was intentional and well known. the whole "studying ancient manuscripts" etc etc is bollocks

the catching arrows thing: difficult but not impossible. you use a very light bow, and it's actually not that hard

his accuracy is mildly impressive. not what I'd call amazing at the ranges he shows

he is fast, i'll give him that
