one of my friends was/is a major league pitcher (john thomson). in the offseason of his rookie year I was in college and he came to visit me and another friend. I just wanted to stand in a batters box and see what it looked like to have a 93mph heater thrown 8 inches away from your nuts.
I didn't even grab a bat because I knew it was futile. He obliged and threw a pitch that I didn't really even see. It was just a blur. There was no way in hell I could have even fouled it off.
Hitting that has got to be the hardest thing in the world.
He later threw me a curve which looked like it was going to hit me square in the head and it ended up almost scraping the ground.
I just wasn't cut out for the SHOW.

I would say dunking on people in the NBA would be pretty tough.
Being able to be a great passer in the NFL. I don't understand how they can throw the ball over 40 yards, put it over the shoulder of a WR, and hit him in the hands in stride.
