Though it's even more impressive to see the balls hit the funnels in real life.

Yes, I know - it's one thing to make balls fall predictably in an animation, but the machines in your links achieve it in real life.

I guess the difference is that there's no way that you will get predictable trajectories from a ball hitting a taught wire (twice!) whereas a simple ballistic trajectory is going to be reasonably consistent if the spring tension etc. is constant.
