So many good plays, a lot of the goal tenders in particular. But any pitches that catches that line drive straight to the skull has a special place in my heart. Not just reflexes, but survival instincts. Lord knows theres been more than a few fallen to a ball to the dome.
I can tell you as an ex-pitcher who has caught 3 line drives hit directly at me, it is absolutely terrifying. These guys play it cool because being macho is part of the game, but I can guarantee their heart is about to pop out of their chests.
Well Wade, if you had actually had 3 comebackers, you'd know that the playing it cool is actually you still being in shock of almost becoming a vegetable
Some other cool ones are Vasilevskiy's behind the back glove save, Ichiro literally climbing walls in the outfield, Fernandez catching that line drive, and the most recent Zegras to Milano alley oop goal.
I personally think the defensive plays are more impressive than the offensive ones because you have to either react or predict what the person is going to do, the offense have practice it a ton
@@dfp_01 Yeah, but there were more slapshots than jukes here. I could understand if they included players evading tackles, some mid-air taps or more crazy saves, but instead; some slapshots and basketball buzzer-beaters. Also, these aren't even close to the best saves, slapshots or jukes in the last 5 years, let alone last couple of decades. Datsuk alone had a career of highlights like the ones shown. Even though the pitcher catching the return ball is *crazy* impressive; it could've been more of other sports, including the ones that are excluded for some reason...
You're NOT wrong. The man could stop AND start on a dime, & frequently made all-time moves just to get back to the line of scrimmage because his o-lines were usually so bad.
Dude with the ball is literally pointing at the grass and didn't throw to the third baseman because the runner dived onto the grass and should've been automatically out. What a ridiculous call
Wrong, dirt is to help you run, it's not the basepath. Basepath is 3 feet to the side determined by when a tag is attempted. Because the tag was attempted near the grass, the new basepath can cut into the grass. Edit: look up a highschool game where a kid took a lead off first into the outfield. Because no tag is attempted he can go wherever he pleases. Once a tag is attempted he THEN has a 3 foot wide line to make it to second. Yes, the rule is the same in MLB.
What's crazy is this type of stuff is exactly why professional sports are a thing. You don't react the way a pitcher does or move the way a receiver does if you don't do these things day in and day out. Truly remarkable what we're capable of.
@@tmorris9330 You should probably reacquaint yourself with units of measurement as I'm guessing you have the same issue with measuring in inches as well if you think he was "8 ft outside the (6 foot area) he has to work with
These are some amazing clips. What would've made them even better Is the name of the amazing player who made the highlight have his name in the corner of the screen. Great Great stuff.
Kerryon Johnson had ALL the potential to be our next franchise RB and one of the best in the NFL, he was awesome. But he was plagued with injuries. I also believe he kind of got used up in college. He was Auburn's workhorse... loved to watch him play. Such a bummer
Martavis Bryant... I was so pissed about how his career went but seeing the Raiders bust with Henry Ruggs, Damon Arnette, Lynn Bowden, and Alex Leatherwood makes it a lot better.
Its crazy how at 1 point or another the chiefs had Jamaal Charles dexter mccluster deanthony Thomas and tyreek hill I guess this was what the raiders was trying to do Pitchers catching comebacks will never get old
@@stuartsiglain3972 It's a comment on a RUclips video. If this was school writing assignment, it would be a different story. Regardless of my obvious run on sentences, you understood the point. Thank you though.
At least the Raiders had Darrius Haywood-Bey & Fabian Washington. And Bo Jackson in the 80s for a minute...that one was real. Up above were busts, just like DeAnthony Thomas & McClure were mostly busts.

The amount of people who still dont know the longoria play was faked is crazy.
Was it really ?
@@heartbreakrichy5826 it was a commercial for Gillette
How do people think this is real? His hand would’ve shattered.
Just thinking this. This has long been known to be a commercial.
@@mattforbes221 that plus why would they interview right on the foul line LOL
11:46 He says to watch the shody tackling but that ref made a clean hit if you ask me.
I knew someone else had to catch it...
2:38 .. please don't include edited Gillette Razor commercials as though they are legitimate baseball
Thank you for including the instant replays

Yeah I nearly died in high school from a line drive. If I didn't catch it I would have been seriously hurt
Well Wade, if you had actually had 3 comebackers, you'd know that the playing it cool is actually you still being in shock of almost becoming a vegetable
@@jrod2510 Yes, but also macho. We had a kid on one of our teams that cried when the same thing happened to him and got laughed off the mound.
there is nothing macho about baseball; ive seen people eat and play that sport, cant even be a cheer leader and eat lmaooo
I don't see how "being macho is part of the game' when it's just 2 groups of men in tights running in a circle and trying to go home.
11:47 im dead that judge just full-on tackled that bystander 😂
judge 😂😂😂
The commentators are the best. Love when they get excited.
2:49 the involuntary krusty the clown laugh!!!
LMAO I didn't notice until you mentioned it XD
Hahahahaha that’s hilarious
omg that's so accurate lmao
Fuck I’m dying 😂😂😂
11:47 the ref casually trucking sb in the background lol.
I thought I'm only one 😂
Hahahaha yes!!!!! Someone else saw him bulldoze on the sideline lmao
I noticed that too 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No one gone talk about the player getting ran over by the ref on the side line at 11:48 lmfao
*run
6:24 everyone trying to dodge their life problems be like
LMAO
i like how "sports history" equals recent seasons of nba, nhl, nfl and mlb
I mean, the N in all of those stands for National so....
@@bluefoxthecutest2628 There are multiple nations.
Some other cool ones are Vasilevskiy's behind the back glove save, Ichiro literally climbing walls in the outfield, Fernandez catching that line drive, and the most recent Zegras to Milano alley oop goal.
You guys have very different definitions for "reflexes" than I do I guess.
Jackson with that spin at 5:33 is like a created player from a madden game. Dude a straight up cheat code it’s crazy 🔥
fr bro straight threaded thru🪡
1:37 That save had the scorekeeper so flustered he accidentally gave 2 goals to Toronto 😂
God bless
That's actually crazy, I never seen that before, 2 for 1 XD LOL

Goals scored on a one-timer shot aren't "craziest reflex moments." That happens hundreds of times during a season.
I guess it's not really about when the ball goes in, but how the player(s) evading and tricked their opponents while handling the ball.
@@melodyghoulscream4394 Puck.
I get the feeling from these videos that the poster doesn't actually watch hockey.
@@sevenratsinaburlapsack You'd be right about that. Juke moves and highlight saves are cool though

19:40 I don't play football but this has to be some God Mode stuff
the chiefs punt return? nah, thats just shitty NYG spec team tackling
3:00 That's wild. Simpson just out here killin it.
Average sports fan: You can't break ankles in Hockey.
Pavel Datsuk at 2:48: Hold my Molson Canadian.
Legit no one says this. You can get your ankles broken by skating alone nevermind a person trying to deke the puck.
um, pretty sure pavel prefers smirnoff or some other version of russian vodka
really appreciate that there are nhl clips in here too. hockey always seems to be forgotten in sports comps
Love the amount of hockey content in this one!
what about bobrovsky's save when the puck was bouncing and it bounced to the opposite side of the net and he caught it with his glove
2:48 I didn't know u can break ankles in hockey god DAYUM 😂
the confidence boost these plays give during a game is crazy lol
Crazy seeing pitchers react like that and instantly catch some of those. Just all instinct
Good collection
I could never be a baseball pitcher. I’d be out there with a hockey mask the whole game LMAO
HAHAHA i want to start practicing my pitching and become one
Despite how much it happens, it's still actually a very low percentage occurrence
We wear masks in slow pitch softball because of this.
That Fleury save was amazing for LV!
How did I watch 25 minutes of this and not see one play of Barry Sanders, some of the best reflexes ever in the NFL.
@Hutch McGehee Sure I don't. Give me a logical explanation why I'm wrong then.
You're NOT wrong. The man could stop AND start on a dime, & frequently made all-time moves just to get back to the line of scrimmage because his o-lines were usually so bad.
“That was a turning point” I LOVE DAD JOKES 😂
Lol that dude at 6:30 ran a mile outside the baseline
Yeah he shoulda been out
Dude with the ball is literally pointing at the grass and didn't throw to the third baseman because the runner dived onto the grass and should've been automatically out. What a ridiculous call

i didnt relize that every hockey one timer was so special
I don't know if these are all "reflexes" but they are impressive.
At the Pittsburgh-Cincinnati MLB game, I once did the same thing when playing baseball.
Where's Barry Sander you need him?that's reflex!Randy Moss' speed?Allen Iverson? Vince Carter leaps over the player for basket,as USA team?
You mean in "American Sports History"
So...yeah. sports history.
The hockey ones are my favorite, goalie highlights in particular
What's crazy is this type of stuff is exactly why professional sports are a thing. You don't react the way a pitcher does or move the way a receiver does if you don't do these things day in and day out. Truly remarkable what we're capable of.
By his absence I'm assuming you're saving all your Barry Sanders clips for his own 25 minute video
The video, where Evan Longoria catches a baseball barehanded, is from a Gillette commercial
preach
Awesome collection! Happy New Year!
Dude this was Hellas entertaining TY
God loves you and made you for a reason
17:10 my guy wishes he was at the rink lol. Nice call, though!
Once again amazing video
I don't like baseball but those catches are by far the craziest clips in this whole thing.
Man athletes are are amazing human beings. Awesome physical abilities.
Pitcher catching opponents drives is one of the ultimate skills ....... It's like looking down the barrel of a loaded gun. XD
5:35 "OH HE BROKE HIS ANKLES" 💀😂🤣💀
“Freezing the goalie” moments would be a good vid
*THE MOVES OF MVP' players,, INCREDIBLE!!*
If you watch hockey you know this whole list could just be goalies
Now we need a similar compilation for world sports.
This is a good and smart video I liked cause I know you'd like it
6:53 harrison was out of the baseline and it’s not even close one of the worst calls in MLB history
he was sprawled in the grass which is clearly not the baseline
then you should probably research what the baseline is and come back to see how cold your take is
@@jrod2510 LOL 3ft to left or right of tag line. 3ft=1yd. He went about 8ft over. Outside the baseline!
@@tmorris9330 You should probably reacquaint yourself with units of measurement as I'm guessing you have the same issue with measuring in inches as well if you think he was "8 ft outside the (6 foot area) he has to work with
It's okay buddy you just don't know how to admit when you are wrong. There are lots of people like you in the world.
11:47 the ref tackles that player on the sideline 😂
I don't like hockey, but I sure enjoyed these clips!
Man! --I can't wipe this silly smile off of my face.... I've never said "Wow!" so many times in my life as I just did in the last 24 minutes! 😲
2:30 thats some insane reflexes
no, just shitty CGI
I know soccer is not popular in America. But they have amazing reflexes!
Anybody else see the ref body that player on the sideline at 11:46 ? 😂
YES!!! More of these please lol
The baseball pitchers are simply insane. How can you catch that? That must be top tier human reflexes.
Good reply videos!
You wanna talk about reflexive moments? Every baseball pitcher who caught a line drive belongs on the top of this list
There is not a more beautiful sound then the "PING" of ringing the pipes in hockey!
Oh yes there is, the THWACK of a baseball hammered by the sweet spot of a barrel
2:12 that right foot pivot goes crazy
Great moments
He actually saved that reporters life...
First MLB pitch thrown, the nerves already, line drive to your FACE. I couldnt imagine the adrenaline catching that lol
Those crazy hockey reflex goals looks a lot like a normal assist
Saving the reporter from getting knocked out was awesome
so you like bad CGI?
These pitchers seem so defeated after the reaction catches. Like “damn that was cool but I just shaved 5 years off my life from that stress”
These are some amazing clips. What would've made them even better Is the name of the amazing player who made the highlight have his name in the corner of the screen. Great Great stuff.
Great video the catch at 2:47 was crazy
Faked for a commercial
was crazy you couldnt tell that its shitty CGI
Kerryon Johnson had ALL the potential to be our next franchise RB and one of the best in the NFL, he was awesome. But he was plagued with injuries. I also believe he kind of got used up in college. He was Auburn's workhorse... loved to watch him play. Such a bummer
I love how Rizzo saw what was going on and dropped his glove to catch his pitcher's!
2:49 man got juked in hickey lol
That due literally saved that reporter from a head injury
1:36 good mic moment
Reflexes? Cool! Sport reflexes? I sleep. SNORE!
Martavis Bryant... I was so pissed about how his career went but seeing the Raiders bust with Henry Ruggs, Damon Arnette, Lynn Bowden, and Alex Leatherwood makes it a lot better.
@2:08 my man turns into snagglepuss
1:38 RIP ears
Lester tossing the glove to first is a fave. Missed one: Jags' game winner against Houston 2010
This is nice..but I can't believe there are no highlights of Barry Sanders and Michael Vick
That krusty the klown laugh from the commentator on Datsyuks deke always makes me laugh
I'm pretty sure Longoria sold his soul to the devil to play baseball, nope sold it to Gillette
The athleticism is just insane.
that should be a vid title for half of these clips that are more of that than reflexes
11:45 ref DESTROYS the player on the sideline looool
Its crazy how at 1 point or another the chiefs had Jamaal Charles dexter mccluster deanthony Thomas and tyreek hill I guess this was what the raiders was trying to do

A lot of these plays don’t have a lot to do with reflexes but still impressive.
