Must have been some mathematical effort to to that .

Weight of mass per unit volume ..

Deep down I still harbour ambitions of setting up a mammoth domino topple thing. I also know that due to the effort and space required I more than likely will not attempt such a feat.
Hats off to the f.ucking absolute mad fiends that do this sort of sh.it.

The question is. How many misses did it take. Thats my intrigue. Its not the shot itself, its the unknown of the sh@t and possible dissapointment that came before and the frustration etc. It must have took days.The celebration must have bwen awesome when thwy pulled it off

It took about 11 hours to set up, but it doesn't say if it worked first time

Dare I say the language would have been a bit 'fruity' at times with angles not being quite right, ball slowing down etc. Words used will have included ****, ****, **** and *******.

I would have set it up in about 20 mins and have done all the angles & math stuff in my head on the fly - and got it right 1st time.

But that's because i am a genius
