Incredible play / INT?

My question would be, what if the ball wasn't caught!

No hind-sight! What did you all really think when you saw it for the first time?

Caught or not, if it's int., it's from that instant.
If your asking about the play without INT, it's a fair ball and play on.

Hind sight, slow motion, waiving any other umpiring responsibilties and watching nothing but F2/BR; Int. BR slowed forcing F2 to deviate his path, by definition INT. Were this say a squibber on the ground, maybe PU see's something. Somebody asked "how far can the BR be from HP?" I'd say he was to far under different conditions, slide along the fence and say;

Real life and full speed when I first watched it, nothing. And still agree with that.
