this just cracked me up.


Also this is pretty interesting and wild if you always wanted to write your own song

Funny, but I think this is the third thread about this video.

Also, you might want to rethink the name of the thread.

Just watched it, and was impressed for the 1st half of the video. Then, it struck me that it would not be all THAT difficult to cheat on something like that. I was impressed with how small the "keys" are, and with how accurately he could throw 2 balls to get a chord.

Here's my take:

That "piano" is simply a large switch to play the next tone in a pre-recorded set of tones. All he has to do is get the rhythm right, and the "instrument" worries about getting the correct pitch.

Granted, it's a very impressive display - even if it isn't totally as advertised. The guy's a good juggler, but it seems to me to be impossible what he's doing.

Remember, when it comes to magic, etc. we see what we WANT to see.

Best to everyone.

I disagree with GeorgeK. People have done much more "impossible" things than that. Besides, it's not like the guy was playing the Rach 3 or anything. However, I can't deny the fact that it would be pretty easy to cheat.

Either way, the guy has way too much free time on his hands.
