Might make me cynical and heartless, but I'm not really surprised or phased by things like that. People are violent and ruthless all the time. It's only the massive scale that gets everyone's attention. That's part of the reason they do it.

I hope nobody is 100% behind the belief that the shooting in Colorado was all that guy's doing...

I would bet an entire paycheck that the guy just assumed that Sikhs are the same as muslims.

Running straight away from the plate, and diving towards the wall to catch it. Mind-boggling how difficult that is.

Yeah, that kind of bodily awareness is found often in gymnasts and figure skaters, but it's just awesome to see. The really good bull riders have it too, and make it look easy to ride those rank bulls.

It's just one of those things.. when you see someone you know you could never do, it blows you away. We're all working with the same parts, but somehow they just have amazing control and timing over theirs.

Man.. the only thing I know about Cricket is that I don't know shit about Cricket.
But those are some insane catches. Bare-handed too, which is just nuts.
Some really interesting hats on some of them!

Those are ok-ish. Its the catches in closer positions that are even more impressive. Lightning reflexes plucking a fast moving ball out of the air. Also, a cricket ball is slight smaller than a baseball, but it is harder too.
There are some more here. The first three are fine examples of what are really good catches, plus the one at about 1:40 is even better, because if the fielder put his foot over the boundary after catching the ball, the batsman would not only still be in, the batter would have got 6 runs as well [ highest amount that can be scored of a single hit, without special circumstances ].
Hats, helmets, turbans (for the Sikh players), caps... if it works, they wear it.

Haha.. hearing people talk about Cricket makes me think aliens saw baseball once, then went back to their home planet and tried to explain it to other people, and this is what they came up with.
