1 take...amazing! Thank you!

[LkOutMtnMan]

I watched this when I was a kid and was amazed when they ran up an wall and flipped in perfect timing!  I have watched a lot of dancers through the years and nobody comes close to these brothers in my opinion!

What a wonderful man Fayard was. Such tremendously talented men.

[kdavisification]

The Nicholas Brothers in this routine is the only proof I've ever found that there might actually be a god.

[jgrell7642]

[freein2339]

Simply amazing...and so were the Berry Brothers....

[rldavisjr]

Awesome! I love it more every time I see it! I had the great pleasure of working with Mr Calloway and Mr Fayard Nicholas before they passed on. Two wonderful gentlemen that left a great legacy that I'm glad is shared on You Tube for posterity.

Fayard Nicholas was so adorable! I'm so glad that they lived long enough to enjoy all of the respect and honor that they truly deserved. They were true pioneers, who really knew how to push the envelope in entertainment. God bless them.

[ccvisions]

Check my Channel for newly discovered footage of Fayard Nicholas performing at the age of 88 and 90!

[punky298705]

i learned that it was done in one take and that even he could not believe some of the stuff he was doing amazing pure talent! esp with all those splits owe

[inkingsakoptata]

Thank you for posting this, truly unforgetable!!

[lishamcc]

everytime I watch this particular dance routine it brings tears to my eyes, these guys were phenomenal

[TapZatNYC]

The only thing I learned from this clip is that the entire routine was done in one take. That's a valuable piece of information, I only wish the rest of his comments were more illuminating, not mere exclamations.

I posted the entire routine. Click on my name for it.

[rogerharrison88008]

You've got to cut Fayard a little slack. He was probably in his 80's when this was done.

In addition as you know these were genius performers. A genius performer will have a hard time explaining what they did because they just have such an inordinate amount of talent that it's more or less natural to them.

It's like the great hitter trying to explain hitting or the great natural singing talent talking about singing. They just DO IT.

[dpt62]

The Nicholas Brothers were just simply amazing dancers and entertainers.The greatest! Where did you find this interview. I would love to see it all. Thanks for posting.

[bemesot]

and good , real good men

[mchsiboy]

Two of the most talented people who ever graced any stage.They did things back in the day that most dancers today can't do now !!!
