How Did This Idaho State Free Throw Stay on the Rim for So Long? (Video)

Every once in a while we come across an amazing play in sports that seems to defy the laws of physics.  About a week ago, Idaho State basketball player Kamil Gawrzydek shot one of the most insane free throws you’ll ever witness.  The ball bounced around and sat on the rim for a full three seconds before falling into the basket.  When you first see the video, you’ll swear the ball is just going to stay there.  Take a look at the Idaho crazy free throw video, courtesy of SI Hot Clicks:

It’s incredible enough when we see a golf ball sit on the side of the cup before tumbling into the hole, but at least that’s sitting in solid ground.  This is a basketball sitting on a thin piece of iron.  No idea how it happened, but that’s a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.
