Just about everyone has stood on the side of the road as cars fly by at 60 or 70 mph right?

But how many of us have ever had something coming at us at 135 mph?

In the second round of the men's singles at the US Open Tennis Competition today Andy Roddick was serving to opponent Kristian Pless at 135 mph.

How fast is too fast?

What is the fastest ball you think an average person could react to? (Let alone return.)

Remember: F=M x V

Re: 135 mph

That's Andy Roddick who also leads in Aces and Service percentages.148mph is unbelievable isn't it. At that speed it is athletic instinct alone that returns the serve because there is no time to think!

The ranked players are such supreme athletes. The match between Agasi and Baghdatis was the best and most dramatic I have ever seen. I grew up watching Agasi so the last chaper was really important for me.
