    Quoted from tracelifter:

    You can catch the fast ones, the timing has to be perfect and there is never anyone around to see you do it when you pull it off.

    Ha, yeah, on my first ball during my first game on my first ever pinball machine, it came screaming off the pop bumpers and I caught it. My Mom was filming it. "Did you get that catch?" She didn't even know such a thing was possible. "Yeah, how the hell did you do that?"

    "Beats me. It doesn't even seem possible. I just sometimes think, 'Oh shit, I better catch that thing', and it happens."

    Turns out she didn't really have it on the video though, it was out of frame.
