The Art of Pitching : Tim Lincecum Duel in Slo Mo

Last year, Tim Lincecum‘s wind-up was filmed at a jaw-dropping 1000 frames per second on a Phantom Flex High Speed digital camera system. Now “the sequel” is out with the insertion of big league hitter Brandon Belt into the equation. Lincecum and Belt break down the physical and psychological factors that go into “the duel” between batter and pitcher. At a spell-binding 1000 FPS, the cameras capture the perspective of the hitter as a fastball comes to the plate, plus gives fans a few new slo-mo angles of Lincecum’s mechanics.

Lyrics to No Distance by Jason Chen

Loving you, has never felt more right this night.
Love is falling from the skies, with heaven in your eyes.
I always knew it would come down to you and I.
In this picture perfect love filled moment, let’s take our time.

So tonight is our worse tomorrow isn’t, we’re stuck in between
I understand there’s no hard feelings, even though I have to leave.
But give me just one night where the world will go missing,
When we’re together with no distance from you and me.

It’s like the world is closing around us and we’re doing just fine (we’re doing just fine baby)
Even if it pulls us apart cuz we’ll still be alright (we’ll still be alright)
I know we’ll be together after two worlds collide.
No matter how far we are from each other, there’s no distance from you and I.

Sometimes our paths change, and we may separate.
But how we feel stays the same, just get through day by day.
But we will always have each other and tonight, for sure.
So when I come back next time, it’ll be just like before.

So tonight is our worse tomorrow isn’t, we’re stuck in between.
I understand there’s no hard feelings, even though I have to leave.
But give me just one night where the world will go missing
When we’re together with no distance from you and me.

It’s like the world’s closing around us and we’re doing just fine (we’re doing just fine).
Even if it pulls us apart, cuz we’ll still be alright (we’ll still be alright)
I know we’ll be together after two worlds collide, no matter how far we are from each other, There’s no distance from you and I. (no distance)

Another moment for today, cuz right now you’re everything.
I feel so complete, when you’re with me.
Remember all the yesterdays, cuz tomorrow still won’t change.
There is no distance between me and my baby.

It’s like the worlds closing around us and we’re doing just fine (doing just fine).
Even if it pulls us apart cuz we’ll still be alright. (still be alright)
I know we’ll be together after two worlds collide.
No matter how far we are from each other, there’s no distance from you (no distance baby)

It’s like the worlds closing around us and we’re doing just fine
Even if it pulls us apart cuz we’ll still be alright.
I know we’ll be together after two worlds collide
No matter how far we are from each other, There’s no distance from you and I.

Got no distance between you and I
Got no distance between you and I
Got no distance between you and I
You and I
