Table Tennis in First Person!

[Matt Hetherington]

Check this out, a friend of mine George decided to try using a skydiving helmet cam while having a hit with William. The video was created for www.ttedge.com don't forget if you haven't already joined you should!

Take a look!

That is a really cool idea Quality is suprisingly good.

Yea I thought so too! George is full of great ideas I think it would be a great promotional tool for those who haven't been exposed to table tennis just to show them the real speed of the game when the ball is coming towards you I think a lot of people are ignorant of that point. We play a SPORT!!!!!

Its my dream to see table tennis live streaming showing the pros playing first person haha !

 

[Matt Hetherington]

LOl would be a bit awkward with the current camera technology Would definitely be cool to see that for replays and stuff though yea

Cool for a few seconds but it makes me dizzy to watch with all that head movement as the player is watching the moving ball.

 

[chughtai]

to be honest i dont like this angle

 

[Rhydian]

nice idea but after a while, I feel a bit dizzy because of the head movements

Nice to show to non-tabletennis-believers, it offers a little bit more understanding for the reaction speed needed for high-level table tennis...

 

[Charlie]

very nice idea but the moving made me too dizzy

 

[Matt Hetherington]

yea I just noticed how dizzy it actually makes you haha would be good in small dozes tho
