Video: Insanely impressive table tennis rally makes Forrest Gump look like a movie character

Kid's got angles

Ben Kiely

Hold on a second, looks like Tom Hamks… talks like a slow Tom Hanks… why did Forrest Gump never try to make it as a Tom Hanks impersonator?

To be fair, it seems like every professional table tennis match has at least one wonder rally.

During the China Super League match between Xu Xin and ZhuLinfeng, there was one of those patented seriously impressive points that never fails to make us wonder why we don’t watch more of the sport.

Roughly 40 shots long, crazy angles, power, finesse, this rally had it all. It’s a real shame it had to end.
