A guy shoots and misses the goal, but where this that basketball go? It bounced through 24 different movies! Maybe that doesn’t sound cool, but just wait until you see the scenes that the French collective HOTU selected to showcase a wayward ball. It all hangs together beautifully. You’ll recognize most of the films, but in case you don’t, they are listed in the end credits, and at Sploid.

I refuse to believe that a spherical object in motion will naturally assume a spiral path - that's nonsense.
This reminds me of the silly things people were saying about Baseball's curve ball 150 years ago. Most first year physics texts have a detailed explanation.

@Jim M, pool and related games do use the same general principle, but the cause is friction against the table, not against air. Your example is not wrong, but it's counter-intuitive.
As for the final result, it was 1-1, so the Frecnh didn't loose... or flee, or go on strike...
Can't deny it is extremely hard to give it that kind of spin, and that shot is noteworthy anyway, but shame on the people talking about physical impossibility or trying to explain what is already obvious. It gives science a bad name, as science doesn't cover these silly topics.
You're right, thank you. I stand corrected. AND educated.
