What If a Man Practised Shooting a Million Times? Shot 90172, Football Progress [video]

The video follows a man's progress on his journey to practise shooting a million times, highlighting shot number 90,172 and his development in football skills.

Background

- This is a video from "What If a Man Practised Shooting a Million Times?", a YouTube series (now ended) that followed a man as he attempted to shoot a basketball 1 million times to see if he could improve from a complete beginner.<br>- By shot 90,172, he is deep into the experiment — far beyond casual practice but a long way from the 1 million target.<br>- The "Football Progress" subtitle signals this video covers his soccer/football shooting (likely a crossover episode while still working toward the basketball goal).<br>- The series became notable for its extreme commitment and for exploring deliberate practice, skill acquisition, and the plateau effect in a raw, unpolished format — resonating with audiences interested in self-improvement and the "10,000-hour rule" in practice.
