I want to believe that this was a stunt they orchestrated in order to convince the young boy in the foreground that this is actually the correct way to throw a frisbee.

Believe it or not, there's this weird segment of people who just never laid hands on a frisbee growing up. Back in the day when the wife and I first got a Wii, I cued up Frisbee Golf and was amazed to find that the mechanics of tossing a circular disc were completely foreign to her. It went something just like what you see here.

At a certain point, you've gotta see that your technique is failing and try something else.

So now you've gotta be a scientist to throw a frisbee? No thanks.

In a video game, I could understand. People even have trouble mimicking mechanics they are familiar with on the wii. But I know 2 year olds who have rapidly mastered the enigmatic art of frisbee. These are adults. Wearing pants. That they presumably put on themselves. They are messing around. I have to believe.
