2,000 Weightless Ping Pong Balls
This is what happens when you put 2,000 ping pong balls and 30 teachers inside the vomit comet!
ARVE Error: need id and providerScience Bob and 30 other teachers launched 2,000 ping pong balls in zero gravity as part of Northrop Grumman Foundation’s Weightless Flights of Discovery program. Also joining us was Kerry Sanders of the Today Show. Weightless flight is accomplished by flying in parabolas in reserved airspace aboard a modified 727 aircraft. Each weightless experience lasts about 30 seconds.

Bruce Lee – Playing Ping Pong With Nunchucks
A lot of people actually think this is real film footage of Bruce Lee playing ping pong with a pair of nunchucks. It’s not. It’s a Nokia ad for a Bruce Lee version of their N96!
It is entertaining nevertheless.
The person is not Bruce Lee but a Chinese national who has won multiple Bruce Lee lookalike contests in China. He is also a student of Jeet Kune Do.
The video was shot using a background sound of people playing ping pong so that “Bruce” and the ping pong player / players know when to “hit” the ball.
The ball was later superimposed into the video + sound and all.
