That ball has great woman control.

For whatever reason my mind did not except that that was a ball she had, but it did see a photoshopped Metroid at first

Kept wondering wtf that green eye was

Clearly the ball is stuck to a point in 3D space and she's just moving around it and staying in contact.
RackhamTheRed
Bowling with several extra steps and contortions
88wut
Never going to medal in bowling with that kind of game.
FightingRevengeOfYourMom
This has to be the weirdest event.

That takes some balls. Well, one at least
ImurevJourhein
I threw out my back watching this.

We couldn't handle it if she had two. Our brains would explode.
Seems like she might though…
Lightsmith
The camera is dead locked on that ball. Serious skill...or editing.
FellaWithUmbrella
She’s having such a good time, She’s having a ball
BabySharkEtc
Don't stop her now. If she wanna have a good time she could give me a call.

At first I thought someone edited some green circle in the video until I realised it was part of a ball. Wow!
wossie
Not pat of the ball, it IS the ball.

It still blows my mind that someone can spend their entire life learning how to do this with a ball
fattmoley3D
Right out the puss to their last breath, ball juggling.
poundingCode
It’s only their entire life if they get sacrificed after winning ?
OdeToBouncer
Well I mean it's just CGI. Oh, it's not CGI? Sweet. Jesus.
DIINKELBERG
Is that contact juggling?
FirstAidPoetry
Now deep fake in David Bowie.

maxobi49
i bet she didnt even get a strike.
Flibster
Now I've seen some weird shit happen at a bowling alley, but this would take the cake... especially if she got a strike at the end of it...

OrkenMork
That sure is an odd way to throw a bowling ball..but I think I saw Fred Flintstone do something similar on league night at the bowling alley

obviously you're not a golfer
Not much of a sports baller, period!

Thank you. Learned something of this training with a friend from a Shinobi family. Good people. :)
Thanks for the comment. fushigi 不思議 means Mystery in Japanese FYI

I think they were referring to the fushigi ball, an acrylic contact jugglingball

My sister asked me what agility was the other day and I was honestly dumbfounded for a realistic definition. Now I can just show her this.

Rhythmic gymnastics is one of the only games that is judged that I like. But I still don’t like that it’s subjective.
GroumphLePreux
It's crazy how she rolls herself around the fixed ball. How does the ball stand still ? A hidden rod ?
ronnyhugo
Drifting is judged, are you saying you don't like that? :P
TsubakiTragic
Higher, further, faster... that was the original charter of the Olympics. However, that alone would eliminate many terrific sports.
I tell people I don't think events with a semi-subjective score should be in the olympics (e.g., gymnastics, figure skating, diving). And 1/
holy shit do I get an earful from people. Mainly women. 2/2
BitRoyal
I love figure skating, but the judging is the worst part.
shankelstoff
Skateboard is also judged. But it's very fair and obvious who should win, if you know the sport.
WellWellWellLookWhoItIs
Everyone can say that about literally every judged sport.
That's why everybody always agrees with the judge. True.
LusciousLucius
Huh. I prefer the subjectively judged games. Promotes thought and creativity.
BreathBeStank
Also kinda makes people lose who I think perfor.ed better because the judge didn't agree
True. I just don’t like when the rules are seemingly arbitrary
JustSayingYouHaventSeenMeAndBatmanInTheSameRoomBefore
And lots of corruption in the ranking process.
Yup! Still more interesting to watch, though.
nounthennumbers
Like skateboarding, artistic gymnastics, diving, figure skating, halfpipe, freestyle skiing, synchronized swimming, slope style…
yourmomscheese
Half of those aren’t subjective...
If your score is based on a judgement of how well you did it is subjective. I scored a goal = objective. I did the best flip = subjective
Each type of flip is given a difficulty rating. You are given a score according to how close you are to achieving the maneuver perfectly.
Each fault is assigned a point severity. There are multiple judges to account for variation on what the judge might have witnessed or not
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.paralleldreams.co.uk/amp/objective-vs-subjective-measurement-in-sport
I’ve long thought there should be no judged events in the Olympics. You’re either fastest or you’re not.
So none of the physical prowesses that aren't entirely empirical shouldn't be celebrated and enjoyed at the global level?
Did I say that? Are the Olympics the only international games? Is there any reason there can’t be other international games?
Correct. No matter how ungraceful you are, if you're the fastest or strongest, you win.
But why can't we have competitions of grace as well in the Olympics?
You can. I just don't like them. Stick all the dancy smiley wearing-makeup events in their own Olympics, just call it a beauty pageant.
