PianoBalls movie is amazing

Attached is a movie of a fellow playing the piano using tennis balls. You have got to see this one folks, the guy is talented.

yea, that clip is a classic.

is it easy to juggle balls on the floor? yes, i can do that.
is it easy to do it with 5-6 balls? okay, that's a bit harder.
is it easy to play simple tunes on an extra-wide special keyboard? that's a little harder.
is it easy to play more complex tunes on what looks like a standard-width keyboard? okay that guy is good. very, VERY good.

i have no idea how he gets that kind of note control on such narrow keys- it's pretty miraculous. possibly he's cheating and using a soundtrack, i dunno.

Well, even if he is using a soundtrack and faking it, he sure pulls it off. At least his timing seems perfect. and as someone with miserable eye-hand coordination, his performance is stunning.

That is an awesome clip, but it is faked in a way.
He has the songs sequenced in the keyboard thingy so that whenever a ball hits the keyboard the next note plays. It doesn't matter where the ball hits, the correct note plays.
That being said, I still really enjoy it. I couldn't juggle that many balls if my life depended on it.

I never even considered that, but it does make sense. I never could juggle myself, so yes, I'm still impressed.

I've seen that clip before, but judging from what some VERY talented people can do, I never considered it being fake.
