You have to imagine that Jesus was particularly satisfied doing that. Given that they are wood sheets on saw horses and not regular tables, he can get such a nice spin when he flips them. When you are Jesus, you take your catharsis any way you can get it.

I mean, the guy was a carpenter, son of god or not he must have been all "let's see what kind of craftsmanship we have going on here....."

The first black and white Jesus one shows by far the best form. Make eye contact with your foe, pause, then demonstrate your contempt for his feeble furnishings. A calm table flip is the best table flip.

1. I didn't think any of these was as good as the big magic the gathering guy that was on youtube about a year ago.
2. I have never in real life seen anybody flip over a table. The table I am sitting at now could be turned over but I don't think I could throw it more than a couple of inches. The magic the gathering guy flipped over a card table which is engineered to be folded up and stuck into a two inch wide volume of closet space.

Japan surpasses the rest by flipping not only a table (heck, *anybody* can do that) but a table AND the tatami floor below it.

Alas, that this was a staged event, by a guy who has a stage persona named Francis. Just another one of those 'too perfect to be true' videos on the internet.

Raging Bull, sneaked in there, the way DiNiro kind of throws the table away dismissively. Though the Tatami throw was also pretty damn impressive.

Yeah: "disappeared" -- usually overnight. I've always wondered where they go.
