I had heard Buck O'Neil talk about shadow ball and wondered how they could actually fool people like he said they did with that game. Looking at that footage I now understand how shadowball fooled many people. It is obvious for a good part of that film he was not actually throwing the ball around but keeping it in his mitt, only to take it out when the "throw" would come back to him.
This is some great film.
