Palate Cleanser – Mark Roper Decides To Re-Engineer A Whiffle Ball to Beat The Pros

I can’t remember that far back as to when I last played whiffle ball. I do remember, vaguely, that I wasn’t enamored with it – I wasn’t all that good at it.  So normally when a video of guys playing whiffle ball shows up in my feed, it’s swipe left. However, Mark Roper as you can see above. It’s always about the over-engineering to either prove a point or just have fun (and usually both).

You can go to 11:57 if you’re a bit short of time to see how he did the work displayed above. Watching the previous video shows him reliving his “youngster whiffle glory days” only to become completely humiliated when he decided to take his boasting to a Pro Whiffle Ball game and step into the box and onto the mound (yes, there is a “professional league”).

And that meant that a whole bunch of engineering (and the application of my maxim of “Learn the System, Exploit the System) that brought me a bunch of chuckles!
