This video explains the physics behind a spiral pass, which appears to be physically impossible. Gravity is only one of many forces at play, and without spinning the ball can look just like it's tipping over.

• 00:00:00 The physics behind a spiral pass are explained in this video, which shows how a top and a football wobble around a reference axis, depending on the forces acting on them. Gravity is only one of many forces at play, and without spinning the ball can look just like it's tipping over.
