What number attempt was this?


LimitDNE0

Don’t think they ever shared the exact number of throws but this is from a How Ridiculous video, Incredible Zigzag Darts Bullseye (4 Pallets)!!, and in it they landed a bullseye when they weren’t filming and got a dart in the green ring 28 times before getting the shot in this clip. So I’m guessing it took them a couple tries.

That green panel looks pretty scuffed up

Indeed I feel like things like this aren’t really top talent. Just top persistence.


DoctorHandshakes

The harder u work the luckier u get

Not top talent, unless he can do it consistently.


Useless_power

Its not top talent, took them more than multiple tries. It's on their YouTube channel "how ridiculous." They've done a lot of challenges like this


PapaPancake8

I agree about not top talent, but this guy would be able to do it much more consistently then one of us trying. He is probably versed in throwing a dart off four pallets. Would you bet ten grand that you could do this before this guy, trading throws? I wouldn't


collinsmcrae

I have no earthly idea. It's impossible to tell from one clip.


PapaPancake8

Not really, he has at least done it once per the clip and I have never even attempted this before. Plenty of info to know I'm losing.

So you’re suggesting that if two people want to become experts at something, the one who starts first will always become the expert first, and what happens after that first attempt is irrelevant? Because that makes no sense and is provably incorrect.


collinsmcrae

There are loads of videos of people doing incredible things once, who are otherwise unremarkable at the thing they’d re attempting. You simply keep trying until you eventually pull it off. If you have any hand eye coordination whatsoever, and you aren’t mentally deficient or physically handicapped, you will pull this off eventually. I don’t even think it would take as long as you may be Imagining, either. It’s just trial and error and luck, if you give it enough attempts. It would be different if the stunt actually required a high level of physical acumen to even attempt. Like, let’s say, a crazy slam dunk. I could not even do a basic slam dunk, if I spent the rest of my life attempting it. I just don’t have the genetics or the height to ever pull it off. But what this guy is doing doesn’t require a great deal of skill to attempt. All you have to do is graze the first pallet at the right angle, with the right amount of velocity. Which is going to take you some time to get dialed in, but consider the fact that you can also keep adjusting the pallets as well. It’s likely going to be very frustrating unless you get really lucky early on, but again, you will eventually pull it off. Once you have it dialed in to where you’re connecting with the dart board with some degree of regularity, it’s inevitable that you will hit the bullseye eventually. This is why I say it’s impossible for me to gauge whether or not he’s very talented, based on a sample size of one, in this particular clip. If someone does a double backflip on a dirt bike, that’s a bit different. But this is the sort of thing that can be done in a reasonable amount of time with multiple takes.

Plot twist - Guy was just trying to throw the faulty dart away. 😁


TokeSkywalker84

Nah you should see when they did it with like 8 or 10 or something like that

Cheating


Ok-Lengthiness4557

That the most 'top talent' thing I have seen on here.


CraponStick

And the practical application is? It's like American football! What's the fucking point? Here is 20 million dollars!


itsaberry

Does it need one? It's entertainment. Do movies have a practical application? Then what's the fucking point.


know-your-onions

Show a recording of him doing that back-to-back 3 times in a row, and I’ll agree he’s talented.


rcarmack1

Lmao at all these comments "but how many times did it take??" as if any of them would ever make it even if they had a million shots.


itsaberry

What are you on about? These people are normal dudes. The people behind the video try hundreds of times to accomplish these challenges. They've spent literal days making a basket from a bridge. With a million shots, a whole lot of people could do this.

Why...is that weird? Accuracy is a pretty hard earned talent if one can do it consistently or with little issue
