Looking for a tutorial or good view of the Jacob Jensen (elephark) trick that was on 365■■■■■■■■■■ called mortal pongbat. ---

Well, Kevin… I’ve been searching for about 25 minutes now, and I haven’t found anything, so I’m afraid I must use my top secret weapon… …Hey, @Elephark—you got anything on this? Assuming Jacob checks his email, we should be good as gold, right? ---

I’m assuming it ends with a fatality, which means you’re gonna need a Sengoku Hattori for this trick. ---

The title reminds me of the old Pong Kombat game… ---

I’ve forgotten a lot of tricks over the years, but Mortal Pongbat remains in my rotation to this day. It’s named after [this game in particular](https://macintoshgarden.org/games/mortal-pongbat). “The object of the game is simple: Win. And blow the crap out of your opponent while doing so.” First recorded [in 2007](https://elephark.com/yovids/6moves.avi) (starting at :25). Recorded again [in 2010](https://elephark.com/yovids/mortalpongbat.mp4), intending to put it in a compilation video I never ended up finishing. Recorded again [in 2013](https://elephark.com/yovids/365/mortalpongbat-60.mp4) for 365. I unfortunately don’t have a copy of the final edit that went online; Steve handled that part and put it straight on Vimeo, and I only downloaded a couple of them before that channel got nuked. So I guess at that rate, I’m now like 4 re-recordings behind? ---
