Matrix Pong
It is a great performance using ping pong and players that move as though they are in the Matrix. What I can't understand is how the guys in black can move them so easily - they must be really tired.

I saw this one some time ago, in a show here in Romania, a show that analyzes commercials. I think Pepsi made a commercial using the same stunts and the guys from the show exposed them ... they got the idea from this clip. I like it and to answer your question JB, I think they really had to practice to do it so smoothly.
I'm sorry! ... my english again ... I meant a TV show. I thought it was obvious when I wrote about analyzing commercials, but when I re-read my post I realized it wasn't that obvious. So basically I saw the same clip you saw, plus the Pepsi clip.
Actually, there is nothing wrong with your English, for some reason I was just thinking that you may have seen this live since in the actual clip it shows them performing in front of a live audience. I would definitely like to see this in person, maybe even try it myself, although I doubt anyone would want to pick me up.
I like ping pong a lot, so this was an extra special treat for me. I just wish the video quality was a little bit better. I agree that those guys are probably very light in weight. I especially liked when they turned the table to its side to make it look like an above shot. That was my favorite part of the sequence.
That table turn was truly creative, in fact you can hear the crowd in the background cheering on when they did it. One point to keep in mind, that although the Directors of the Trilogy were both from the USA it is the Asians we have to thank for a lot of these moves / sequences.
As a former highschool ping pong champ (only 8 people in the final tourney) I loved watching this video. The amount of work they had to put into doing this was phenomenal. Its not like you can just move like that on a whim. Great work on their part. And this was my first time watching it.
