The Balloon

[duddofall]

Little do you know, none of this is played in reverse. Thomas just has extreme talent.

[2edR0s4e]

Ive been having nightmares about the music combined with the backwards runner.

[roseboekholt]

this was beautiful.

[TrinityBlade21]

Olan's awesomeness can only be increased by the general awesomeness of Sigur Ros.

That is all.

[comfybluechair]

The song came in and I ran around screaming in pure joy.

[Born2doU]

shop is reuniting!

(I added that to the title... i miss these guys!)

[GraceMccThe1st]

SIGUR ROS

You are perfection.

[jonnofinster7]

i love tacos

[koolgool]

Awesomeness. :D

I think you and I, Olan, have the exact same taste in music. You always seem to be putting music by some of my favorite groups in your videos.

[paradox2767]

Whenever Thomas is in videos on this channel, it's something beautiful. :')

[IMyneCraft009]

why must there be no more baloon shop :( whhhhhyyyyyy they were so good (cry)

[freetrigger]

@IMyneCraft009 Well at least we can see them make videos separately.

[garuga0777]

i feel like the balloon has some sort of magical properties, and it brought ballooshop together

[delivery52]

everything is black and white... except the hat.

[gummyhaya]

@delivery52 and part of his foorhead at times lol

[beautifulneverending]

i cried... so hard while watching this...

[DanceSarahDance831]

I LOVE HOW YOU ALWAYS USE SIGUR ROS IN YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDDD

[Rossthatguyfromthere]

Is this how balloonshop started?

[klayclay]

@Rossthatguyfromthere No. Balloonshop was there long before this video was posted...unless this video was taken a long time before and only released in 2009, but that is a slim chance :P

[kylej175]

What is the status of you and Joshua? I have not seen a recent video of you and him together, but each of you have thomas in a few videos. I think you should make more balloonshop since at least two of you are together at times :)

[TheKudzukiller]

If you want the name of the song. It's Glosoli by Takk.

[MrSASitler]

@TheKudzukiller no by sigur ros

[EliteToasterSquad]

@TheKudzukiller by Sigur Ros. the name of the album was Takk

[jasonswearingen95]

I simply find it impressive that this video has 700 likes, and only 5 dislikes. Masterful Hots.

[Kylawlz]

Sigur Ros + Thomas Gore + Olan Rogers + Artsy Fartsy material = Best video in the history of ever.

[DrinkToIreland]

i have a theory. This represents them "letting go" of balloonshop. and the fact that he catches it at the end means they might do it again but not for a while. We can remember the old times.

[SirJustin16]

yessss Sigur Ros. win. you have style Mr. Rogers.

[VocalCritic77]

HA

[GalacticWarMachine]

SOMEONE.... PLEASE, give me the name of this song!

[madespy]

@GalacticWarMachine "Glósóli"

[22jermz]

@GalacticWarMachine Sigur Ros - Glosoli. My all time favorite song. Ever.

[GalacticWarMachine]

@22jermz THANK YOU SO MUCH! I waited a while to send you a thank you response so I could listen to all their music and really get a feel for it and... I ABSOLUTELY love it!!! Never have i heard such beautiful music. Thank you again for telling me :)

[22jermz]

@GalacticWarMachine (: They literally changed my life.

[IceDancingQueen18]

5 people can't run backwards

[ODonifas]

5 people r gay

[TreadingWaters]

YES. GLOSOLI.

[Poseidon205181851435]

TEARS. OF. JOY.

[girlikestacos50]

I really dont want to know what school project this was

[liveBentertainment]

thomas is the king of doing the jerk.

[FallOutKidd49]

Thomas runs like a gazelle.

[fizzgigify]

just came from the Evactuation Plan vid with Radiohead's Reckoner, now this with Sigur Ros' Glosoli?! new respect for these guys.

[KeepItRollingForLife]

Sigur Ros, good music

[DrinkToIreland]

i think this video might be about saying goodbye to balloon shop sadly...

[oooheeeoooh]

how depressing. goos summer times

[MattisseWH]

Now where is the shop?

[slitherdoc007]

Thomas + Glosoli  = Beauty.

[thegreatconundrum]

ROFL

[hayward1991]

SIGUR ROS FTW

[hernandezzAG]

This an awesome vid !!! :)

[TheLeprechaunRider]

this is so cool :D

[TheRockinsockz]

Dont know what project this was for...but you had better have won.

[TheJaviJB]

What's the song?? Wow, cool feeling

[iDislikeNames]

This is really beautiful, Olan. Thank you for bringing us The Balloon NOW BRING BACK BALLOONSHOP I SERIOUSLY HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO LIVE FOR

[PRSGuitarsPWN]

Sigur Ros!

[WRF713]

He is a steed.

[fatredpanda24]

Look at his gazelle strides

[tjmgoins]

Pretty good, but a little wierd at the same time.

[marclangstaff]

i'm glad other people like sigur ros.

[Ilovemyfender2]

Great band!

[TheBSmedia]

Sigur Ros + Cinematic scene= epic

[pats2stud]

sigur ros is amazing

[iramasaur]

That guy is HOT and when hes running backwards it looks like he is jerking:)

[TheJustinOldsdude]

@OlanRogers where did you go to school?

[MiotaLee]

0:44

[MiotaLee]

Thomas... <3

[yamibacon32]

Great scenery, you know, you can do ANYTHING in the show business. You are funny, you can edit, you can direct, you can do it all! You rock! You can go far

[oisin0eire]

Insheeption

[TheSillysally1234567]

Okay...yeah...I am SOOOO lost

[lsbspike2650]

this somewhat reminds me of the actual music video for this song which is also amazing

[Saibot216]

I'm not a big fan of the whole reverse movie thing, but I liked this one for some reason...

[frothyshoes]

Yes I was confused, and yes I loved it.

[xalexander]

I'm pretty sure OlanRogers could take 30seconds of a streetfight and turn it into Romeo and Juliet, the Leonardo DiCaprio version.

[EuphonicParity]

I absolutely love this song and I love that you used it.

[ZeRoBurrito69]

this was filmed normally, Thomas is just a skilled backwards runner.

[relytkad]

What is there to dislike

[Mushface909]

you Olan Rogers make beautiful videos. thank you for being so awesome :)

[DNOIP]

two people just made me cry, just as this video did. it was beautiful.

[Deathstone397]

i think the reason why Olan and Thomas did that was to make it more interesting. if u wacth it in the forward verson its awkward

[xaxsimplexescapex]

It's inspiring to me. Honestly.

[aspiresk8boarding]

i have complete respect for you now

totally complete

[MangoSlaughter]

I wish I could run like that, wow

[rhiannonwalsh]

Thomas looks so like Andrew Vanwyngarden from MGMT!

Ohhh & I love how they used Sigur Ros in this :D

xo

[ApoctalipticOWNAGE]

I like the way this ended.

[rikiku01]

That was very coo

[AaronfromWM]

Is this Sigor Ros?

[callum444121]

@AaronfromWM yes. :)

[bwilcox2011]

Yea it has got to be them.

[mintgumdropz1]

This is sweet, and at the end, made me smile. This is, to me, what would be, a simple act of releasing someone who has died that you were close to. Kudos the the photographer and the person who came up with this idea. Simple, but without wqords, left an impact. Thank u, Leese, for sending it to me. I am cherishing it. I hope that is why you sent it my way: As an idea on how to release someone i felt close to ? Love u much, my friend, T. (I really liked this, short, simple and very sweet.)

[TheLadyVictory]

Sigur Ros!! This video is sweet.

[Fallentus]

Sigur Ros Best band that ever lived.

[stanford331]

this has got to be sigur ros. impressive sirs

[AnbuJedi]

This video is wonderful and I love Thomas, he is so cute :)

[TheFatty2497]

I'm wondering why this is beautiful, but it is.

[bmkPaul]

wooow you used Sigor Ros. freakin legit

[danncingpenny123]

I really liked this video!

It was just a totally new take on something so common. :)

[TheSpiralsage]

Sir Thomas at 45 seconds is magical.

[KatieJane31]

How does this video not have 1,000,000 views?

[Beefgog]

[ZakAust]

[JkAllTheTym]

@Xxxchikidy440xxX because it was just that powerful lol jk but i couldnt even blink for fear of missing any part of it and i couldnt speak for fear of missing the sweet sound of music.

[gills77]

To the person who hit the DISLIKE BUTTON - You, smell like old mayonaise. Very, very old mayonaise. Old, and sour.

[TheTrevor101]

[DethklokMinion]

@JeffreySpeaksOut Mixed with curdled milk, and black rotten egg yolks.

[kliptosaraus]

[capecodairsofter]

[NerdWithWings]

what class was the project for?

[cadillaccgrills]

This is wonderful. The camera work in your videos are really nice. That, and I love Sigur Ros. Though I still can't help but giggle a little at Thomas' lanky, giraffe-like movements.

[sk8ingis4fags]

Beautiful video. Beautiful song.

[raptorboy3000]

what the heck happened to my man josh!!! he was the egg to your salad in all of the baloonshop vids. thomas was just a funny in a weird way, really good at straight faces, guy(still really funny :[])

[Super8AMActs]

I think one of the best things about Thomas is his little red cap he's got there, as well as his wonderful quick feet dancing, and Thoman Ken Kane couch

[navids20]

I take it this is where Balloonshop all started.

[RYAN57HEINZ]
