[@Toxici]

i had to come here and watch this in honor of Lyman his memory.. we lost a giant and a friend today in Pinball.. Lyman Sheats Rest in Peace

[@thebandlounge]

RIP Lyman, you've left a mark on the pinball world that not many others have.

[@reimangaworkshop743]

The pain in my heart is gigantic. I always wanted to meet him. A great loss for the Pinball community.

[@kiwifrenzyonvideo]

RIP Lyman. Thanks for everything you did to help make pinball even better. You will be missed.

[@sadboi7537]

RIP to the greatest coder and one of the greatest players of all time. You will be sorely missed my friend. Batman 66’ and House of Horrors are absolute bangers.

[@IanJacobyandcompany]

RIP to the legend

[@TheMusicRoomWA]

Truly an amazing piece of pinball history.

[@Riz2336]

The guy giving the interview didn't really sound like he's much of a fan of pinball lol.

[@TheMusicRoomWA]

This is the best explanation of pinball I've ever seen.

[@TheMusicRoomWA]

3:51 oh these great pinball moments. He tries a couple times to make that multiball shot, starts flailing (at this point I'm concerned), then somehow ricochets it off of a bumper into his target. The interplay between skill and luck in pinball is always fascinating to me.

[@bigbusa1]

Gumbel was totally NOT impressed. He kept saying "HUH?" as a person who is completely uninterested in something would say.

[@jodini5]

God love Lyman Sheats! He was one of the best! The Today show however could of picked the best "chess players" and said prove to me why you are the best at "chess" in 10 seconds.....and go!

[@joshgrube84]

I'm just here for Lyman

[@rusty1187]

Ball control is key, and Lyman is the best!!!! Braynt doesn't have a clue!!!

[@7ten]

Here to pay respects. RIP

[@88crxhfb18]

It looked like he was trying to pass it to the left flipper by bouching it off the bottom post on the right slingshot, but it hit the left sling. If he tried to do that that was a very good shot.

[@NewLeaf88]

That save on Wipe-Out was insane!

[@CharlesNivison]

Did Lyman intentionally shoot the right cellar on Wipe-Out by right flipping to the left slingshot and into the cellar? If so, I think I could never get THAT good! GREAT VID!

[@Vir4941]

"they steal a lot of theme's, don't they" Nice choice of words... ass. lol

[@MikeGervasi]

Lyman is there labelled as just a pinball champ. He was so much more than that as his creations illustrate.

[@johhnmorgan8329]

Lyman shears best programmer ever

[@HDLowrider03]

May the Lord rest his soul in peace.

[@steelyfan7745]

a legend.

[@jjsrt8]

lyman seemed pissed from the beginning of the interview.

[@johnmorgan2488]

The quiet achievers are Tommy Curren of surfing and Lyman Sheats of pinball and Katie Ladecky of swimming. I don't want to know big mouths on youtube telling us how we should do things.

[@donh1511]

Gumble seems less than interested in pinball or Lyman! LOL

[@Arkstrikle]

thats why kids in 80s were so skinny they spent there lunch money on arcades

[@dergrossegerald]

RIP :(

[@jaymorpheus11]

@ambidextrality That's precisely why he was on TV... I know, it doesn't make sense to me either.

[@Eagles.Fan.Since.Super.Bowl.52]

Damn Bryant was completely disrespectful to the best pinball player in the world. "You didn't trap it" "You didn't make the shot". Are you for real dude?

[@eric4013]

se eu pudesse esta la nessa epoca por isso que eu falo eu nasci na epoca errada!!! indiana jones euma das maquinas que eu mais gosto...

[@aflhabalafhabab]

Count the ‘’uh’’s.

[@JohnnyBeatdown]

"Then why did it say congratulations?" what a nob.

[@JoLoveDub]

💔

[@johhnmorgan8329]

The best programmer ever

[@chrisfi3d]
