Mad Skills
I have great respect for people whose talents lie in being able to do near impossible – if trivial – things. A few weeks ago, I posted a video of David Bernal aka Elsewhere (the guy in the Orange shirt) doing his incredible body-popping routine (WMV file 3.7MB). This time, here’s Tom Baker (no, not Dr Who), performing a near impossible trick with 2 basketballs (MPG 984KB). What I really like about this is the look of surprise on Tom’s face when he successfully pulls it off.

Any idea what happened to him since his internet fame?

Charles Says:Like Mal said, that is pretty good. However, the funky spots on those basketballs are really bothering me. I’ve never seen anything like that stateside, and it makes me wish I had something more colorful in my trunk than two plain orange Spaldings.
