Golden State Warriors legend Stephen Curry appeared to extend his status as one of the greatest shooters of all time in a viral video, but was it real?
While that video was clearly edited, with doubles of Edelman used throughout the shoot, the Curry video is far more deceptive. The ball is thrown at a great distance, which helps to disguise post-production artifice, while Curry disappears from each frame after his throw .
It seems the video might have been meant as a tongue-in-cheek joke or PR stunt, reflecting Curry's intimidating record and NBA status.Nonetheless, it didn't take long for the film to be debunked after AP sports writer Janie McCauley tweeted that the Warriors confirmed the video was fake.
