it’s not doctored. that was proven back in 2009. they have youtube videos of them trying and missing the shots several times. also, would companies actually sponsor them (Dude Perfect, not Johnny) if they were fake? plently of eye witnesses will tell you it’s real, whether you want to believe it or not.

those dudes are legit. you just dont see all the times they attempt the shots and miss. its no different than being a kid trying to make a full court shot at the gym. you’ll miss 50 of them but eventually you’ll hit 1.

Yeah, it could all be faked, but hitting hand held skeet with footballs is very possible (my cousin used to shoot machine thrown skeet with a .22 rifle, and could hit 17 out of 20 reliably). You ask him how he was able to do that, and he’d show you empty boxes for 500 .22 rounds in his trash bins, and the answer was, “lots of practice.” Hitting the balloons off the goal post is pretty plausible, the rest, who knows, but it is fun to watch.

anything shot with a locked down camera is suspect

The secret is how many retakes does each shot take? With Johnny Football, not too many.
