Edinburgh Military Tattoo - Swiss Drumline - Top Secret

[Oukita]

Wow!

[Gool349]

Yeahhh brinigng drumming to another level!

[muerkier]

Looks and sounds like an average High School Marching band with a good drumline .... sounds like Friday night at the football game. They sound and look good but this is "Run-of-the-mill" around these parts

[bleakbear]

@muerkier It may be "run of the mill" but this is the ORIGINAL, thereby automatically better.

[GhostSarge]

It's great to hear without the narrator... No offence

[Sv3nDrum666]

yhea right look at the right there is public

[froschi1802]

Scheisse iist dass geil das ist millitry live geil

[MrComatost]

what makes you idiots think these guys are soldiers??? they're all civillians

[decemberstorms]

@MrComatost

Are you Suisse?

[MrComatost]

@decemberstorms Think my response got sucked into some black hole. But anyway: Top Secret has performed at the Nova Scotia International Tattoo in past years. I was staff with this show for 22 years. And in my position, dealing with the international groups taking part, I'm well aware of who Top Secret is. Annnnd...there's another video on here and the narrator explains who these guys are.

[MattsMonkey41]

One word....... WOW

[pitufo2572]

impresionante, acojonante, impecable que mas decir eso es precision suizaaaaaaaaaa

[StephanusTacitus]

Just plain unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wismer1987]

i hate people that cut off the end!

[troganyt]

wow i am looking forward tho the 2010 show.

[swissmaster1985]

THATS military precision compared with the precision of a swiss clockwork

[jspee1965]

This is fucking ORSUM... they are among the most celebrated military musicians on the planet... their crack and spectacle is beyond comparison .. yet they tear it up at the Tat ... what fun!! : )

[orCana]

Swiss is the best =]]

[HartmanForPresident]

They are Swiss or Brazilian??? XD

[LteeP]

why woud they be brazilian?

besides, cant you see them carrying the 7 BIG RED swiss flags?

[fossanl]

@LteeP, he ment that jokingly... Cause of the drums you know? Brazil - Carnival - Drums? Get it? :D

And they kind of shake their booty... Which is somewhat awkward. Haha.

[LteeP]

lol yeah :D:D

[nijeman]

I like those videos, other way i wouldnt watch them. And they are playing almost perfect!

But it is nice to see that not anything is perfect and that they are just humans and not swiss clocks ;)

I dont want to make them worse! The are pretty good

[nijeman]

At 5:08 the 4th guy of the left side lost his rhythm =)

[bobcat20101]

Who gives a shit except you. Keep your day job because a music critic you are not. Just a critic.

[JorgeAyala16]

Switzerland!!!! C'est genial. Proud to be Swiss!!!

[FirmusPatria]

The Show is great... but the drummers are assholes!!! I met them at a show where i played to.

[NovaScotiaCanadian]

lol i can see that

[bobcat20101]

What show would that be. Have you noticed that you and NOT to many others are bitching? If you can't say something nice DON'T say anything. We don't want to hear you bitching. Go watch some other video. "Youtube" has thousands. Duhh

[FirmusPatria]

@bobcat20101

I sad, the show is great. But for me it must be more! Not just the show makes a good group. It's also the personality. I never met musicians that are so arrogant. I played at many festivals and normaly it's like a broderhood! All musicians are together one team. Except the Top Secret Drum Corps!

[usmc1700]

not so secret anymore

[dueltodeath]

My wife and me, we were there!! It was really fantastic, the only one formation, which got a standing ovation of the audiences

[liiitche]

INCROYABLEMENT FANTASTIQUE !

[ransid55]

the timing and arithmetics are stunning with excellent performance!!

[azxdesertrat]

[Paull72able]

[accussersattitudes]

Niemiec powie na coś fajnego o Wundabar

Englishman: Oh wonderfull

Pole : O kurwa!!![this word is good for every occasion]

I say I like this video;)

[krasic1906]

o kurwa !

[basti81111]

und wer hats erfunden: die schweitzer...

[hnk1969]

Totally fantastic..

[mitsubishi777]

I had guessed that Edinburgh Military Tattoo had been similar to a sailorman Popeye's tattoo until I watched videos related to Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

[murf69]

Rofl.

[johncarter239]

wow they are fantastic

[schofseckel123]

Läck mir am tschöppli, die sind jo richtig guet!

[MerenvenVardamir]

What a beautiful memory... luv em...

[nonix14]

[lawre3]

[bpdexplorer129nc]

I like the part at 0:37

[bmxjeremy]

now THATS what military precision is, damn this is goooood

[rambo0ch]

@bmxjeremy hehe i'm proud of those guys as a swiss man :) but they aren't really from the military, they are the best drummers from 3 different drum-groups from basel, a city in switzerland, and they train so once or twice a week just for the carneval, the "top secret" is just a secondary project for them :D

[danebrewer10]

aaah so that's what they put in the watches to make them so accurate!!!!

[letztebastion]

Tja, unserer Jungs haben das voll drauf! *freu*

[Obet1979]

WoW!! Swiss precision. internal clock included. Their army most do somethig with their time, after all, they don't go to war.

[LeadTip86]

the swiss dont have a standing army...every adult does army training and then if they go to war they are called up

[sprudel777]

Отвал башки!

[tubepeak]

while not bad, pretty average as far as drumlines go. you can see their semi discomfort with moves that perhaps wern't originally theirs.

[sigga007]

holy shit!

[bestcurl]

Jesus...I dont belive this!!

[tribun1tigger]

I`m from the german army. The army from Switzerland shows us how to do it right. You get my respect.

[bouldy147]

FUCK ME again Speechless !

[NWLAstrings]

Douldy147 - If you're pretty, I am happy to oblige. Your place or mine?

[Guyisaritelegend]

Lol whut?

[zeezeedee90]

wow, the flag holder on the outside at 3:14 is

freaking tall!! and, great vid 5/5

[Onyxgirl1989]

@zeezeedee90 haha that's why they had to place him outside, it would have been too eyecatching if he was placed within the block.

[ghostninja89]

its times like tht you realise tht they also make knifes and chocolate

[shonajw]

Amazing

[kingsgate57]

Furuck me, Swiss precision. Brilliant.

[jewishmafia08]

i like the vocal drumrole and the visual where they keep putting their sticks under their arms and such. very cool. would love to see them in person.

[irelandrulz93]

i mind watching it

it waz unbelieveable

[ktboo0702]

~Jaw DROPS~ WOW! That was awesome! Thanks for posting. :-)

[Samswiss]

Loved it very much. thanks for sharing. i need to go there one day. Hope they will play again.

[weirdo3331]

they are the undisputed best drumlin in the world today. the first nomilitary act to be featured at the tattoo.

[shintyfan]

I was there on the left stand, their even better live

[melon2cool]

wow the amount of time and effort that must have gone into that. and their hand eye co-ordination is PERFECT!!! excelent job.

[scotlad219]

....ALL

[someperson94]

truly epic

[bpdexplorer129nc]

This is better then the movie drumline :) I would say this is the best military drum line internationally over seas

[morekew]

Wow, what a great show.

[GoldenLioness100]

Does anyone have a video of the military tattoo played at the start of 'We Wait and Wonder' by phil collins?

[Martinencore]

DRRRRRRR ahhaa awesome

[callmeelf1moretime]

dam that was awsome

[t50ae]

VIVe LA SUISSEEEE

[EddieTheFishReturns]

There was a lone man who didn't stand for "God Save The Queen" when my Grandad went to the Tattoo.

A major said, "Sir! Will you please stand!" twice, and when the man ignored him, he grabbed him by the arm and "escorted him" from the stadium.

Shame. He wasted his money after refusing to stand up for a few minutes!

[JBb3ars4life]

one word-amazing

[terl47]

That must be such a rush of pride to be in a team as SLICK as that.

Immitation is the highest form of praise, and there s NO WAY I could copy them, they are to good. That is REAL TEAMWORK

Terl

[greg180318]

Eh oui la suisse ya pas mieux

[kylebruce86]

i dint realise that the swiss had any need for an army,

[Blackeneer]

@kylebruce86 they dont have... switzerland is a nice country, but not very helpful in wars. the top secret drum corps has nothing to do with army.

[Raiown]

@kylebruce86 Oh overheard my friends talking about why Switzerland was never been invaded. They said, or claimed, the reason why Switzerland was never invaded was because everyone owned a gun and was very good at using them. I don't know if that is true, but that's pretty awesome if you ask me.

[Wismer1987]

@Raiown its true i have a machine gun from the army in my room which is pretty stupid if u ask me-every year a few people kill themselves with it.

[Wismer1987]

@kylebruce86 we dont have the need- but we kill more of our own soldiers than any enemy would ever do

[chrispacmen]

@kylebruce86 we have some of the best pilots in the world... and some of the best infantry...

[Ishinaz]

@kylebruce86 Their army is mostly in the vatican ^^

[pacratboots]

dang... wow.. ok, so this year is sold out i think, cant get tickets... but dude, i am SO there next year !! this one was awesome,,, great ending to their performance too !

[djtimmety]

GODLIKE!!!!

omg those guys rock!

the bassdrumms deverve some respect too!

[jamiereidit]

proberly the best drum solist act in the world....

[Maverick2051]

Ive seen more than my share of drumlines in my day but HOLY CRAP!!!

[xThEvIoLeNtMaJoRiTyX]

[Areosa70]

que bueno!!!

[Peabush]

waooo...!! Amazing

[chalky339]

i remember watching that, and im sure the commentator said that they were made up of ordinary people who do jobs like bakers and teachers etc in one word "BRAVO!!"

[EnterSonic]

That's true. None of them are from military background. Just ordinary civilians, with normal jobs. Absolutely amazing.

[Moog167]

I like DCI more....

[SwePianoholic]

This is completely incomprehensible :)

[TEAMRampy]

magnificant

[berlinzof]

Magnifique!!!!!!!!!!!!merci

[elljay1989]

newfound admiration 4 the swiss - who knew they were as kool as this?!? haha absolutely incredible :D

[3856443]

[swissguy848]

Oh i love my switzerland :D

[sutcliffe62x]

what a thrill, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zebthedog]

PERFECT

[nurdisto]

not too perfect...at the end, got a mistake

[Stofer21]

People who write or say about negative things about the military take them for granted. These people are dedicated to protecting you even though you say such mindless things. It seems common sense is not so common afterall.

[vjm530]

These guys are from Switzerland. Yes, they have an Army but do not fight in wars. They are a neutral country. The soldiers are to protect their own country without leaving it.

[ReatKay]

wrong.. switzerland also takes part in military operations as supplier of technical personel & infrastructure..

they are also part of the international kosovo-mission... and they're armed.

neutrality ended with the comission of the swisscoy in 1999

[scubafox54]

You have wonder why someone who loathes all military would waste their time watching something they them selves could never do.That is defend the existance of others whether be with a rifle or a drum: Yank, Brit, or Swiss or who ever allows idiots to sleep well at night

[page1ofmany]

Absolutely incredible!

[consuelouk]

NO COMMENT

[RivTacFive]

Amazing!!

[Madzmar]

I'm lost for words...amazing!

[beatcascade]

Absolute Skill and Dedication, Excellent!

[evilfalseprophet]

and guys..why everyone try to compare them with the army?? they learned it by themself, they are civlians.. thats the difference....

[betyerdid]

British Royal Marines are the best in the world with regards to this drill. The rest are poor imitations.

[Nhia89]

instead of wasting time learning and practicing drills, they should actually learn how to fight for once

[betyerdid]

LMFAO!!! British Royal Marines are amongst the best in the British armed forces. You think they're good at the odd drum routine? You want to see them fight. You obviously know nothing about the Royal Marines. Are you american? LOL.

[DiVeronica]

umm asshole I do believe that Nhia89's comment was directed towards the Swiss, not the British, he probably meant that considering that Switzerland refused to get involved in WW1 or WW2, in the US it is thought that the Swiss are a less form of cowardly french because they never fight, however Swiss Halberdiers and mercenaries were some of the fiercest ever. - Swiss Guard for example.

[heatwave2012]

im american and i think that the united states marines suck, although i am from an army family so yea

[FatTonyCologino]

they fight.

[ikshields]

How about this: if the bastards of the world with guns were doing this instead of shooting at each other, we'd have a world worth living in.

Music wins. War sucks. Capiche?

[Nevalor]

best comment i heard since... ever? thanks ikshields

[slatertots17]

fuck you Nhia89

[betyerdid]

Quality? Take a look at the British Royal Marines. Thats Quality and Service.

[whizname7]

WoooW! SwissLine is OKAY! Best I've ever seen. Bravodissimo and then some.

[StraightSs]

And they do it in their free time.

Its not even their real job.

We've hot the whole DVD, and there are some more extra's which includes them. They are so absolutely amazing.

X.

[trlstaff]

very kool ! Excellant line, best I have ever seen. Very nice video, thanks.

[shutupjusnow]

hahahaha fuckin genius, only swiss can do precision like that. cunts.

[federer024]

this is the best line

[GibsonUlsterScot]

I remember watchin this sooo cool!!!!

[ubijaccetnika]

lol man was söll de seich? d schotte sind vil cooler

[mercedespower1291]

thats swiss quality!!!!!!!!

[Peppestilo]

SUPERRRRRRRRRRRR BRAVI......

[kevmulder]

Why is this "Top Secret" ? If it was, they wouldn't be showing it off to the world, no?

[timothyngim]

Its a capital T. I think it may be their name or nickname or something liddat

[gespernok]

The name "top secret" is an irony to the image of banks, a way to lagh about our own image for the world, who for the most don't know a lot about this small country but what hollywood and journalists say..

[slatertots17]

It's top secret because they practice in secrecy the entire year until they start playing again

[jeroenracer]

You are gay

Prrrt, Sperm-fart

[RedBird8]

this is so amazing!! best drumline ever.

[louswire]

I was in a drill team a long time ago... we were good... but we couldn't come close to these guys.

[kimselvon]

Fantastic -the best *****

[Willis103]

[tez775]

Amazing!

[Sumer61]

[conrad12345678910]
