So that was real, no special effects or anything. He actually did it. That was amazing. And then walks out after he's done, like no big deal. Everyone else is in shock that he could do it. That was the best. Thanx for posting this.
This reporter holds a mic doing live TV and literally upstages a Harlem Globetrotter. You’re witnessing the highest moment of this man’s life, without a doubt.
Absolutely everything in this video is perfect: - Sean/Shaun/Shawn Gallagher owning the moment and being the goddamn chad of the century -The female anchor losing her shit -The male anchor's spirit leaving his body and meeting God for a cool 5 seconds -How the Globetrotter was clearly going for a rebound, and takes a few seconds to pick up the ball before just dying
"If I have a nickel for everytime a reporter score a halt-court backward shot, I'll have two nickels. Which ain't a lot.... But it's weird it happens twice."
Lol reporter leaves to become an NBA hall of famer. Basketball player stays to report 😂😂 This is beautiful, chaotic energy, and I'm glad they all had fun with it ✨🙌🏽🎉
That’s one of the few moments where everyone benefits from the news anchors losing composure and showing emotion and going off script. That disbelief in their eyes at the desk, the shoulder pushing, the loud noises. That’s when the news is real, when the news anchors are allowed to react genuinely for a good reason. 👌 beautiful
Its a mic drop moment....But he knows he's not really a Globetrotter...No, he needs to keep his job....and he's a good boy, really....So, he sets it down gently.
Magnets only work at very short distances-- so short that you'd need to essentially make the shot in the first place. They're also very heavy, so you couldn't make the shot with magnets.
Wow, if I had a nickel for every time a reporter made a backwards half-court shot, I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Sigourney Weaver nailed that same kind of backwards shot while filming the basketball court scene in Alien Resurrection. It was such an amazing moment that Ron Perlman nearly broke character. You can find it on the making-of documentary on the Blu-Ray for the movie.
That male anchor just touched the female anchor's right shoulder without her permission. Those are grounds for termination, a sexual harassment lawsuit, and a lifetime ban from all media outlets.

Yeah I think I saw the 2nd one but the 2nd threw the ball with 2 hands, this guy did it with 1 hand and 1 hand on the mic
I absolutely love this comment
The female reporter’s raw laugh was awesome
I thought the same thing!!! Great throaty laugh!
Agreed
No it was annoying

Anyone come here from the other ‘reporter makes half court shot backwards’ video?
yep
This is my twelfth reporter doing a half court shot backwards. They are all part of a secret cult and are cloned just outside area 51.
Yep, and I was actually looking for the "blindfolded teacher shot"
Yeah , the 4 M views video .
Not directly from it, but I did watch it a few days ago.
Why are news reporters so good at basketball... ?
Because there dream used to be to be a basketball player but then failed at their life became a reporter and then saw there chance.

@@ArchangelExile With only one hand
I love how he just peaced out after the shot. Mic down, exit stage left.
I mean, what else can you do after that? That exit was so earned
He left his resignation under the mic too.
I thought making backwards half-court shots was part of the requirements to being a news reporter?
lol
ikr, i though that making backwards half-court was the minimum requirements to be a news reporter

Team: "Guy we are losing what do we do?"
*Reporter comes in*
The whole team: Hehe boi
That one annoying sketchy kid in the team: “wouldn’t you like to know, weather boi”
I like that the professional could tell it was going to go in.
The energy from his confidence gave the ball power to go in
The guy in studio was great too, funny reaction
“He did it!”
Reporters are just in a higher plane of existence

How many are here from recommendeds under the reporter that made this shot and didn't believe it 🙋♂️
AAYYOO
YOOoooo
Wassup
Aye aye capt
surprisingly me
He played that off in the most gangster way possible, mad respect
The walk out was the best part😂
No, the cute reporter with maroon bow tie is the best part : )
I like how the pro knew halfway the shot was going in, they know exactly what kind of curve the ball needs to make to go in.
“I played basketball in high school and could never get it in...around...”
Same girl, same.
TH-cam recommendations: wanna see a reporter make a blind shot backwards?

The one handed microphone in hand backwards while being on live tv next to a Globetrotters player shot...
A classic
The way he embraced the impossibility is just hilarious, 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The way he just walks out just makes it waay more better😂
The reporter was like:”dammit these mortal’s just saw me use 0.1% of my power gotta play it off”
POV: You just came from the other video of a reporter making a half-court shot backwards
The female reporters laugh and her partner just shaking her as he stares in disbelief just gets me every time 😂
This is the most sadistic way of *"I'm gonna end this whole man's career."*
The globe trotters reaction as it went in was priceless. He was so happy for him
"How it feels to chew 5 gum."
"If I have a nickel for everytime a reporter score a halt-court backward shot, I'll have two nickels. Which ain't a lot.... But it's weird it happens twice."
After 0:50, i heard in my head Anthony Mackie: "CUT THE CHECK!!!"
CUT THE CHECK
Now because of this I hear it to
I say that all the time and most people have no idea why
I think every news reporter unknowingly has the supernatural ability to do this on live TV their first and only try
the walk out killed it.😵
Starting to feel like these aren’t that tough!
Plot twist: reporters are secretly top class world basketball champions.
Honestly in the Midwest there's a good chance they played through college
Love the look from the guy at the studio like his world was made and destroyed at the same time.
A gentle push by the male reporter is lowkey wholesome
When he made the half court shot....
He knew he chose the wrong career.
In anime, this is the moment a silent character reveals he is zen master all along.
Nobody:
Not a single soul:
0:35 The dude in the background: AAAAAAAghhhh

You again

That's when he realized he picked the wrong carrier.
In the crawling text at the bottom: “85 year old bitten by alligator at Florida retirement community”
Sounds just like Florida to me.
I think he left so quickly to buy a lottery ticket, he knew it's his lucky day....
I know I would have, though he probably used all of his luck making that shot.

What's most impressive is that he did it off-center too.

Plot twist: his ball still stuck in the ceiling someone was up in the ceiling and threw another ball straight down into the hoop
Its a mic drop moment....But he knows he's not really a Globetrotter...No, he needs to keep his job....and he's a good boy, really....So, he sets it down gently.
The way he maintained his composure is damn impressive hahaha
8 years later, history repeated itself.

mmmkkaayyyee
Rigged. The ball was a paid actor.
He did this with Just one hand, what a Genius
Handled that like an absolute champion
Omg I remember this!!!!! I was just sitting on the couch in shock when he did that 🤣
Lmao
I love how people that can't make a lay up or free throw can sink half court shots like nothing. Maybe because the ball has magnets?
Magnets only work at very short distances-- so short that you'd need to essentially make the shot in the first place. They're also very heavy, so you couldn't make the shot with magnets.
Hahaha "Would you have believed it if I hadn't seen it?" 😂🤣 What?!?
And...and...he was still holding the microphone in his other hand, and talking into it while hurling the ball. Crazy impressive.
00:40 That's unrequested contact. Cancel that man immediately.
CANCELED MUST CANCEL
El gato adios....the cat goodbye
The other reporters reacting was awesome
Great shot! You don't see that everyday!
Although, I did see another reporter do exactly the same thing on TH-cam yesterday.
wait what, the thumbnail hadn’t loaded for me so i assumed it was the other reporter, you’re telling two guys have done this?!
Watch. The ball that goes in is dropped straight down. It's a trick. When you don't actually see the ball through the whole flight, that's a red flag.
Why is everyone getting in their recommendations reporters doing this?
That one other reporter: Finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary
Can we take a second to realize that we just watched the news... on the news?

That went in so cleanly too! It didn't even hit the rim.
I always question these when the ball goes out of the camera shot
