Man plays piano by bouncing balls

[aleutian1]

It's a (partial) hoax and I'll prove it to you. Start at 1:30, he's playing "God Bless the USA", the part where the lyrics go "cause there ain't no doubt I love this land"...watch at 1:33 - the notes for "this" and land" are exactly the same, but the two balls CLEARLY hit the keyboard in two different spots. So it doesnt matter where the balls land on the keyboard, it's programmed to play the correct note when a ball hits any key. Still impressive, nonetheless.

@aleutian1 See my comment made 9 months ago.

[Kryptoniankousin]

I saw this years ago

[bchick22]

Its not fake. I just saw the live show yesterday! !!!

[lilmcman022]

Wow.. RaidenTheAlmighty is stupid..! Clearly he didnt fake this bc multiple other ppl have done these types of performances and it can be done.. Just bc you cant do something as spectacular as this man.. doesnt mean you have to ruin his true talent of juggling..

[nicamy8988]

that guy must get laid A LOT!!!!

[F0xGirL4eVer]

shouldn't he must be on america's got talent??

[nickia88]

oh canada!

[TheBestKindOfFailure]

I think the reason why that one ball hardly created a sound (but still did, if you listen) is simply because the ball might not pushed the key hard enough.

Next to that, it looks like some touchscreen keyboard, so it might be the case they have trouble reading collisions sometimes.

[cyreeluv2ny]

wowooowow

[linientreu86]

wow!!!!

[ROTCANHOC]

who is he?

[SuperCrazyIdiot]

watch from 0:43 to 0:44 you can see that hes using a sequencer because as he drops the ball at 0:43, he hits a lower note to that of 0:44.

fake but still pretty kool

[janinhotb]

Great Intro :)

[KarinMikazuki]

Yeah.. you're actually right, the keyboard didnt emitt any sound from the touches..

A perfect example is at 1:42 when he gets confused and drops a ball without it emitting any sound at all

[dentonbrowne]

ugh come on why try to prove his talent is false? humans offten try to explain what they cant do or prove or try to explain what they dont understand. obviously he has some talent to perform the act, but so what singers lip synch whats the difference

[KarinMikazuki]

Because I hate dishonesty

[dentonbrowne]

loser lol

[CrudeDude]

dentonbrowne is just NOT QUITE BRIGHT ENOUGH to discern a sequence / piano juggler act.

IT"S FAKE STUPID! Get over yourself. You're not that smart, okay?

[dentonbrowne]

UGH i know his not really playing but why try to prove it wrong? theres ppl that can do it and obviously its entertaining cus i just went to vegas and hes still there, but i guess theres always a bitch in the bunch. so get over yourself, you are a bitch, okay?

[mabusking]

Actually it did make a sound :P Just a quieter one (since he just dropped it instead of with some force i suppose)

[fisarmonicista]

I'd like to see him playing the Rach3

[areodynamic1]

lol i saw him live in las vegas at the variety show... hes amazing talented and a character

[dentonbrowne]

yea i just saw him in vegas a few weeks ago, awesome

[travisrules14]

after 'io learned to play with my balls', i was sold

[Saila016]

LOL !!! he said ' i learn to play with my balls ' PUAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[chimeraseven]

At first I though, "What a douche, he's just effin around and has no concept of rhythm"...but by the end my jaw was hanging slack. THIS IS SO COOL!!!

[acdcfan0010]

woah he is amazing

[CrudeDude]

Faked with a sequencer. plays the correct note no matter where the ball lands. BFD.

[travisrules14]

then he is really good at faking, cause his balls land in pretty much the right spot, he uses 2 balls for chords, and his timing is right.

[dickensonkik]

use your balls ..to play much better : )

[fullm0nk]

holy shit..

[tibor29]

I thought he was going to play with HIS balls :D

[xypter1]

fake or not its fantastic man

[MisterFigge]

Is this really not fake? :O

[MrTille]

It must be fake. The balls bounce on different places all the time. Maybe it's programmed to play tones in a certain order? But I can't believe he actually does this IRL!

[sterf12]

then hes timing is really really good

[MrTille]

I've never said anything else :) I believe the "piano" is a fake, but he's skill with balls aren't ;)

[SharkyRoll]

gotta be. at 141 the next note he plays sounds like it fucks up

[samsingssongs2]

i saw him do that live in vegas a couple of years ago!!!

[alekhhhh]

chiquito...hihi

[sap4001]

check 1.43.he bounces without a sound.wel if it isnt fake hes bloddy awsm.

[darknessgrim]

i think i heard a high tone note : D

[JuangaPro]

did his balls died?

[SenorJuanDiablo]

I think it's real. I believe they tuned that one key differently because it would've been impossible for him to hit the note at that speed with a different ball because of the angle and the speed at which the other ball was rising.

[projecw14]

bien bacan bro-

[geralltp]

hes very good

[iateyourgranny]

cool!

[parrot016]

even if the piano bit was fake the ball juggling at the end is immense!

[crazyguitarist11]

I hate to say fake but if you watch at around 1:34 the note that starts at 1:34 and a second one starts at 1:35. The speaker make the same note but he played it on different parts of the piano. if that made sense

[beastlygoalieman39]

but think if it was fake the guy would still have to have some skills to keep time so yea but was probaly still fake:)

[crazyguitarist11]

yeah that kinda juggling is hard i would imagine. btw i play goalie too haha

[theluigiteam543]

It's fake; once he throws a ball and no sound comes out.

[XxJokerxX90]

fake or not the jugling part is fucking aswsome

[CrudeDude]

XxJokerxX90 fake or not the jugling part is fucking aswsome

******************************­****************

Meh. A 5 ball forced bounce is actually quite simple. Kinda like the people who think he's really "playing" the keyboard.

[Philivix]

if this man is real : This is Amazing!!

if this man is a fake : This is Faking Amazing dude!

[bubblegumandcherries]

its real you know its not the piano its him he can actually do it WOW!!!

[cocacola13769]

amazing.....but it might be fake and just make a different sound everytime he hits it anywhere but either way its awesome

[Razx211]

It's the piano. The ball juggling is real and happening; it's just the piano.

You see, the piano is set up in a so that hitting the wrong key will still play the correct note in the piece. Not sure how he is switching pieces ( foot pedals? Set up exactly for that show (knows when it will switch automatically)

There you have it.

[iammajinvegeta]

Kinda hard. Even if you do manage to switch the notes played (and that ain't really hard), the hard part is hitting the keys at corect intervals. I mean even if he does manage to program a note to a wrong key, he still has to press the key in the rythm of the song.

Only way i see it could be fake is if when he gets near the thing he preses play, and then just times it to make it look like his singing. The song even having pre-made breaks in which he stops for effect.

[ElixrOnfire]

PEOPLE SAY ITS FAKE it still takes skill to make it look that good

[AraBicboii]

anyone know what his name is???????

[MsCosmo237]

omgg just another example of how human talent extends beyond the norm

[OneLoved2288]

LMFAO HE IS SO FUNNY!! at the end he is like "Faster!!"

[AraBicboii]

hahaha i cracked up on that part

[madman20111]

dude try using balls for sumthing better than playing piano (yes inuendo there lol haha im so dirty minded at times)

[Whackydoodle]

well i agree its faked. but well. its hard to fake it and catch them all

[pigzrulez]

the last part, the throwing pattern is the same. If you were to actually play it on the piano, you'll notice that it's completely different.

But still, his ball skills were pretty good.

[betr0thed]

the end was incredible ;]]

[dalailama83]

AMAZING he should go on one of those talent shows

[tagcheeta1992]

what was the first song he played??

[SlickR12345]

wow amazing!

[ArdieM]

fake... look/listen a 1:42

[DJTeki]

ye, fake, he throws ball and sound doesnt exist

[andrewyouna]

LOL ur a genius haha

[deraiden]

i've listened to it many times... i hear a sound. it's just very faint.

[RaidenTheAlmighty]

It would probably be harder to actually fake it and time it as well as he did. So Ill give him extra points if it really is fake.

[CrudeDude]

@RaidenTheAlmighty Easily faked with a sequencer. Plays the correct programmed note no matter where the ball(s) land. Busted hundreds of times on YouTube

[RaidenTheAlmighty]

That definitely makes sense then.

[LizOMFGcookies]

I personally don't see how it looks fake there

[damdream]

holy fucking shit !!!! that was amazinn !

[petruza]

Ok he could fool someone until he played stars and stripes forever... that ruined it!

[rich98521]

holy shit...

[doctorj366]

man thats awesomee

[Guilmant512]

FANTASTIC!!!!!! He'S a genius!!! BRAVO!!!

[CrudeDude]

He's no genius. It's a simple sequencer. Plays the correct note no matter where the ball lands.

[A7xxxxxxx]

even if it is a sequencer hes stil throwing the balls down in time and on the right places so what difference does it make?

[CrudeDude]

A7xxxxxxx said

" even if it is a sequencer hes stil throwing the balls down in time and on the right places so what difference does it make?" ** No, he DOESN'T need to hit the keyboard "in the right places". It's one big pad; one big switch. All he does is hit it with a ball ANYWHERE and it automatically plays the next correct note. He simply supplies the rhythm.

Because to those of us WITH a brain, it DOES make a difference.

[neilss1]

lol true hwne i first say this when i was younger i thought it was a real piano but now that im older and clues up i realise it him providing the rythm still very imppresive though

[RisingB0ner]

INCREDIBLE!!

[poopdownurthroat]

HOW!??!?!?!?

[huzar237]

omg at end was freagin insane!!!!!!!!!!!

[CrudeDude]

Any halfway decent juggler can do this. The keyboard is programmed to play the next note no matter what key is hit. See: Sequencer.

Go to "Juggle Boy" on YouTube and see it's so easy even a child can do it.

[DigitalAdvocate]

wow thats cool, he should go to one of those global talent shows like american ID or BGT

[MIONION]

' ' O

[ozzyrocks809]
