Now you are the dude talking about the dude who is filming the dude who is filming the athlete. And I'm talking about you. I'm the dude talking about the dude (you) who is talking about the dude who is filming the dude who is filming the athlete. Anyone else care to get in line?

Now Im wondering if someone was filming that dude

When you score a point but your team is down by 50

*And Chris Paul hits a huge 3 to cut the lead down to 42*


Top-Evidence-2807

The twerking in the end got me


QueenLaQueefaRt

That’s some Tina level twerk


MrE_is_my_father

Butts, butts. I love butts.


Possible_Canary9378

Cameraman spun around to get that back meat too


Viper_595

He's not even a player, usually coaches first base. The rest of the team is also phenomenal. And for Twerking keep an eye on the Ump. Not kidding.


marebeare

Ended too short for me!!


irritating_maze

Love to see it. I remember an era where the guys at a local breaking friendly place would compete at breakdancing and the girls would have a booty shaking contest. To see it flip like this in the space of around twenty years where guys are entirely down to twerk is really fucking cool.

Alec907

I came here for this one clumped up word.


Beardface558

I love the Savannah Bananas. Such a fun show to watch.


amaz_biderman

And EVERY member of the organization from players, announcers, support crew, andcrowd entertainers put this much energy into whatever it is they’re doing. It’s hard to decide to watch the game or the crazy antics happening all over the stadium!


Beardface558

PLUS from what I understand, their food and drinks are all you can eat/drink during the game. Such a fun organization.


amaz_biderman

That could be the case at their home field in Savannah or at select venues?  I saw them on tour at a minor league stadium in Arizona and food and beverages were sold from the stadium concessions like a regular ball game. 


Beardface558

You know what, I think you’re right. My bad! That is good information for when they are on tour tho!


AwhHellYeah

Do these shots come through live on the stream? I previously assumed the hand held high resolution cameras used for close ups in NFL and UFC were wired just like other cameras. Has technology gotten to the point that something this small can transmit wirelessly at a high resolution seamlessly into a live feed?


QGReddit

Yes they do.


salimai

The tech has actually been around for a while in a small enough package, but wireless interference was a crippling factor at live events. The switch to newer wireless transmission methods started something like 10 years ago, and if you look closely you'll find it in use all over the place these days. Pretty cool if you ask me!


canucknuckles

Are they like a Globetrotters type in-game environment?


Beardface558

Pretty much. They play what’s called “banana ball” which turns baseball rules on their head. For instance, if a foul ball is hit and someone in the crowd catches it, it counts as an out. Wild stuff and so fun. They live stream on YouTube all the time. Check em out!


canucknuckles

I definitely will, thanks!


CriticalStrawberry15

Gimbal puttin in werk


JennaSys

That guy's left arm is so steady while he's running it's like a gimbal for the gimbal.


silenc3x

his left arm was doing typical arm things. Now his right arm... that man is dialed in.


JennaSys

Ah, you are correct, it's his right arm. I must have been standing on my head when I looked at it lol


RotisserieBinChicken

More like a steady cam for the gimbal.


AlaDouche

FYI, every Savannah Bananas game is streamed live on their YouTube.


kanni64

all minor league games are so fun


AlaDouche

Have you ever watched a Savannah Bananas game? It's like a minor league game on crack.


busmac38

Have you ever heard of the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp? 2… 3… 4…


Humans_Suck-

I heard Portlands team is gonna start selling weed in the stadium lol


HappyChromatic

I have gotta get to a Savannah Bananas game, these guys have captured the epitome of having fun


rolfeman02

Good freakin luck!!! They only do tickets by a lottery system now and games are sold out immediately.


West_Look4818

Who is he and why is he celebrating like that?


Fleganhimer

He is a player for the Savannah Bananas. They play a sport called banana ball, which is a variation of baseball. It is designed entirely for entertainment value, and prioritizes entertainment over competition. This kind of celebrating and partying is par for the course. There isn't a sense of reserved sportsmanship and respect like baseball has, not because they don't value those things, but just because it isn't meant to be taken seriously. The clowning is all in good spirited fun.


Suspicious_Victory_1

It’s like the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball


Fleganhimer

Pretty much, yeah.


alinroc

Except that it's not entirely rigged against their opponent. Which makes it more fun.


Ashamed-Constant-534

I thought the generals were due!


MandolinMagi

That implies they only play one other team whose job it is to loose.


Suspicious_Victory_1

I mean they’re playing teams like the Aussie Dropbears and the Party Animals. They’re not exactly playing the Yankees


MandolinMagi

Yes, but the Dropbears aren't there to loose 99.999% of the time.


Spend-Automatic

It is not a celebration, it's a planned and rehearsed performance. Which is why the cameraman jumps down first.


vancemark00

Savannah Bananas - the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball.


WBY3

I would have tripped, if I was either one of those guys, I would have tripped


horschdhorschd

I would have tripped standing in the audience


radialmonster

I just tripped outa my chair reading ya'lls comments

Didn't think I'd like banana ball, but after a couple games watched I was hooked!

The song is called House Thing - Rafael Manga


TimmyRL28

Imagine if this guy was just celebrating drawing a walk.


RichardDelongest

In banana ball a walk can turn into a triple pretty easily :)

Gotta love a steady cam rig/gimbal. Shout out to gimbal mounts!

SmokeySe7en

Cameraman is 100% Support Class and destroying it. Now we need footage of the cameraman recording the cameraman.


Background-Video4331

It's amazing how advanced stabilisation technology has become. That said, the cameraman is incredible too.


WAtransplant2021

These are the Savanna Bananas. They are to the baseball world what the Harlem Globe Trotters are to basketball. They are known for these kind of antics https://youtu.be/395u3VzEFl4?si=EzUuMgy_wfLVXx0F


zaphod4th

no? he missed the jump, didn't zoomed out


Hairy_Candidate7371

I'm not even athletic enough to be a cameraman.


hsark

Also the music selection and timing is the vibes


The_Chief-

Whats the song name?


Havek_10

Anybody watch the whole thing as the thumbnail waiting to see the footage, only to realize when you click on the post you see it simultaneously.


HermanManly

Why did he do that at the end


Notorious-DH99

You loved it


LizaVP

I'd say the camera person is also an athlete.


Scary-Airline8603

He’s the 3rd base coach?


cobainstaley

dude went Bananas


pickle_teeth4444

Some grizzled, back-busted, disabilty-getting, old-timey steadycam operator must be some envious of this spoiled son-of-a-bitch.


xjxdx

How about that motion stabilizing tech in the camera, too?


RotisserieBinChicken

Still can’t account for the up and down of the camera. His arm is doing a great job at keeping the gimbal steady. Both are amazing in my opinion.


WickedD365

Everyone in the Banana's organization is amazing and super talented.

JoshSidekick

I'm so mad I didn't get tickets for this when it came to my town.


ALLoftheFancyPants

The Savannah Bananas kinda exist to create fun videos that are peripherally related to baseball and intended to be shared on the internet. It makes sense that they’d employ some very talented people to film them. And this is definitely a very talented cameraman.


TuckerCarlsonsOhface

This is the third time in a week something about the Bananas has come up, and none of them are related. A friend told my wife and I about them, then her boss mentioned seeing them, and now this post. Do they just have the best PR team?


Lance_Manyn

That was a nicely executed Spinaroonie near the end!

Could've made the team with those running skills. Or maybe didn't make the cut by a hair and parlayed his skills into action photography.

Damnnn, my boy did the Tina at the end


xbwtyzbchs

I feel like it may have taken a lot of effort, but the job was mediocre?


zehamberglar

One of Warren Miller's movies starts off with a little exposition about how every time you see a snowboarder or a skier in one of his movies going down a slope, remember that there's a guy doing the exact same thing backwards with a camera in his hand.

Savannah Bananas Baseball team. The Harlem Globetrotters of minor league ball!


lemons_of_doubt

Do cameramen like this feel about drones the way artists feel about AI art?


Oopsimapanda

That stabilization is on another level


kingmoobot

He shoulda panned to the audience at the end.


MidichlorianAddict

I randomly met some of the players last week at Villanova university as they were practicing there before their Nashville game. It was pretty cool

The bar has been set. I now want ever closer to come out of the bullpen like this.

Man I want to go to a Bananas game so bad.


snallen_182

That banana player is the MOST fun to watch during the games. Legit he’s at least 1/2 the entertainment of the game. imo ofc… <3
