Hardest individual act to perform in sports?

Hitting a major league fastball or stopping a penalty kick in soccer?
I know some of you saw the comparison done by sports science (or whatever that show is called).
What say you?
I have a feeling I know how this will turn out on the World Cup Board.

I like my chances facing a major league fastball much more than I do trying to stop a penalty. (Obviously I don't actually like my chances to hit a fastball, but you know what I mean.)

Doing a flip on a balance beam and sticking the landing.

I would say they're not very comparable. By the time a shot is taken you pretty much have to already be moving. Meaning it's more than just hand eye coordination. More often the not, you have to make the right guess and have a little luck. I'd say hitting a fastball is a harder skill, but it's more likely to happen than stopping a penalty shot.

Well, hitting a major league curveball is harder than hitting a major league fastball.
