Crazy tic tac bounce!? | EVERYDAY MYSTERIES

All rugby players have very good intuitive knowledge of this phenomenon. Easiest way to see the transitional energy giving a higher than starting point bounce is kicking forward at foot height and waiting for "the bounce" to grab the ball again (which can be at waist height, chest height or even over shoulder height). I was expecting you to mention rugby on the video :) and solve the challenge by throwing the tic tac forward. But adding rotational energy works too (with a bonus of orange fingers), in rugby you do that by dropping the ball in a vertical position and kicking the top of the ball.
