There are some people who will claim that anything is fake; that they do so doesn't mean it is.
For instance:

Dude, that was pretty sweet, even if it was staged
The guy is a baseball player, I don't know what position he plays, but they pretty much train themselves to catch balls, as it were.
I'm with Rigel, though, with the added caveat that just because those doubting can't do it, doesn't make it impossible for a professional to do it.

..What poor soul , when presented one of Life's " magical" or " special" or as lorin has it..just Pretty Damn Cool.. moments, can only deny..and even argue in the denial? The self defeatism is nothing compared to the magnificence of the natural.

i only ever played sandlot through my youth. one day pitching the ball came screaming at my head - i reached up and caught just seconds before total disaster. nothing like he did though.
Evan is a third baseman btw...

According to Business Insider, it's just an ad for Gillette.
Although the name sounds professional, I'm not familiar with that website, so I can't vouch for them. I get most of my national / global news from Reuters or the AP, and don't read any business specific mags.
