Roger Federer Trick Shot Video: Gillette Ad Shot Real or Fake?

Roger Federer's Trick Shot of Knocking a Metal Can Off Someone's Head Has Become an Internet Video Hit

But is the trick shot in the video real or fake?

That is the question on everyone's mind after the release of the video that is now making the rounds on the Internet.

The footage (video below) was shot during filming for Gillette UK and tennis great Roger Federer can be seen serving the tennis ball at an amazing speed and knocking a small metal can right off a crew member's head without hitting anything else.

He looks to be so good and accurate that he actually does it twice.

When asked about the shot Federer himself would merely say that a 'magician never reveals his secrets' implying that the video could be a fake.

This of course would not be the first time that an amazing trick shot would have been faked for commercial use. There have been numerous basketball dunks used for commercials that have turned out to be fake and Federer's could be no exception.

Watch the video - what do you think? Real or fake?
