Like a bullet he probably only heard it whizzing past his head.  He didn't realize how close until he watched the video.

Pretty cool, but I'm still partial to the Bobby Jones version.

I think it was mounted on a tripod. I also think it was much the worse for wear after the shot it took!

Then either the cameraman was holding the tripod in his hands or it was set down on a waterbed.

I was wondering how does it spin like that in the end. 

Could be done on purpose for link bait.

Golfer LLoyd Christmas:

What are the chances of hitting these concrete columns, ricocheting back and forth a couple times, and then screaming straight back at us and hitting the camera?

Cameraman Mary Swanson:
Not good.

Lloyd Christmas:
Not good like one in a hundred?

Mary Swanson:
I'd say more like one in a million.

Lloyd Christmas:
So you're telling me there's a chance?

After re-viewing the vid again I do see some slight movement at the very beginning. But it's amazing how still that camera is held even when the ball is rocketing toward it!

Where did this come from? Twitter posts? I'm not on Twitter, but I can view the vids. 

What are the chances? When you can "bend it like Beckham", pretty good I guess!
