    Plot twist: his ball still stuck in the ceiling someone was up in the ceiling and threw another ball straight down into the hoop

    That reporter accidentally had more talent than I ever will on purpose

    If I had a nickel for every time a news reporter made a half court shot, I'd have two, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

    I love how people that can't make a lay up or free throw can sink half court shots like nothing. Maybe because the ball has magnets?

      Magnets only work at very short distances-- so short that you'd need to essentially make the shot in the first place. They're also very heavy, so you couldn't make the shot with magnets.

    I love the reporter's low key reaction.

    I always question these when the ball goes out of the camera shot

    Every reporter can do it only once in his life. It's like a golden ticket

    Is this some kind of power that you gain when you become a reporter?

    Its a mic drop moment....But he knows he's not really a Globetrotter...No, he needs to keep his job....and he's a good boy, really....So, he sets it down gently.

    We should get this guy and the reporter from the other video to do a 1v1 match one day.

    Wow, if I had a nickel for every time a reporter made a backwards half-court shot, I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

    And...and...he was still holding the microphone in his other hand, and talking into it while hurling the ball. Crazy impressive.
