    It would've worked too, if my face wasn't in the way.

    The ball bounces off to the right. The player slaps himself with his hand. I think it hit his thigh... but yeah, that's a fastball to the nuts.

    That's a self-goal.

    Yeah, notice the initial disappointment of the player in blue at the bottom (who made the pass), followed by his delayed celebration.

    Looking at it more closely, how did he manage to kick the ball into his own face? Ouch!

    I can see how it all happened though, as he had to go for it -- otherwise the second option blue forward would've scored it easily.

    Does it actually strike his crotch? It seems it might be hitting his lower abdomen.

    Looks like he got his hand caught between the guy and the stick he was holding up.

    Er, no. It's a goal by Javier Hernandez of Man Utd against Chelsea. The guys in blue are all Chelsea defenders. #2, Ashley Cole, was tracking the guy who did cross but failed to block it, which is why he's in shot. He's the left-back so wouldn't be attacking on that side.

    Think that was Hernandez's first goal for Utd. He's scored a lot better ones :)

    It's not.

    JM : it's from the Community Shield game at the start of this season.

    I was disappointed to find that was apparently Gillete viral marketing.

    That strikes me as fake. He's reaching for it exactly where it's coming before he even sees it... it's all just a bit too far ahead of ~.15s human reaction speed.

    Hard to see just where/how they faked it though.

    If you guys think that Longoria catch is impressive, you have GOT to see LeBron hit full court shots.

    The hit ball is CG. The guy in back just swings the bat, Longoria reaches back to a prearranged point, pretends to catch, brings his hand down out of frame and transfers the real ball (hidden in his left hand the whole time) to his right hand to throw it back to the mound. The camera shake is intentional to draw attention away from the CG ball in his hand as he lowers it from the catch.
