    The video. I thought this was a pretty cool one, especially since it gave the number of attempts that these things actually took. I'm amazed at how few tries they go some of these in (such as the bull's eye and umbrella).

    Well, if these are fluke throws (i.e. based completely on luck but not on skill), then success may occur on any given attempt.

    I'm not so sure. I try shit like this all the time and I think the number of attempts on nearly everything is definitely on the low side. It's true success can occur on any attempt, but that hat throw for example, me and friend tried that, from probably almost exactly the same distance, for *at least* 100 attempts and didn't make it once (a few weeks ago), they got it in 62 tries.

    Didn't see any hat throws like in this video. :dunno: He's doing (and it's still very cool don't get me wrong) straight up hat manipulation.

    The difference here being they are moving to catch the hat. That makes it very much easier!
