Nice juggling, but the piano seems fake
Mark (guest)  -  March 28, 2006, 20:40
It's obviously fake. You know, every time you press any key the next note in the music is played. I've seen keyboards do this before.
Zerdar (guest)  -  March 28, 2006, 22:12
No man it's not fake ,i can do the sam thing :D !!
Gran (guest)  -  March 29, 2006, 00:03
Well, to bad, as you say, it's fake. Check 1:42 if you don't believe it. Ball - yes, sound - no.
dandy (guest)  -  March 29, 2006, 02:21
hm....fake yes, fun DEFINETLY!

Gran I noticed taht too
Juhgu  -  March 29, 2006, 14:04
I guess Mark's right, about 1:10 there's 4 same notes in a row, but the balls aren't hitting the same key. Pretty impressive video anyway, he still follows the music somewhat well.
nice (guest)  -  March 29, 2006, 15:09
i dont think that is fake cause you van see the cable with speekeers on the right side of screen

He's an ok juggler with a funny show. But it's very fake.

Good juggler but the piano was fake.
InterClaw (guest)  -  April 2, 2006, 01:48
If you know anything about pianos/music you'll know this is fake. OR... MAYBE... it's as Mark says that ANY key plays the next key, but that would be hard to achieve when he throws two balls at the "keyboard".
Juhgu  -  April 2, 2006, 22:03
Why would that be hard? I think that's just the case here. Actually, it would be much more difficult to be convincing if all the audio would come from a tape. Then you'd have a hard time trying to hit the keys at the exact right time.

ça c'est SUPER

pre (guest)  -  April 12, 2006, 09:48
hahah, he messed it all up, we all saw that unqued note! hahahAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA
Billy (guest)  -  April 19, 2006, 23:22
fake! He's irritating, too.
Miguel (guest)  -  April 29, 2006, 16:53
It's not fake I've actually seen someone do this with my own eyes, she was trying to teach me too and I did pretty well too for a beginner
Zaph (guest)  -  May 1, 2006, 14:05
@Gran: 1:42, only very small sound (ping) but it's mysterious...
Arakasi (guest)  -  May 6, 2006, 15:43
He does a good job but its fake... But anyway I liked this video...
Akara (guest)  -  May 7, 2006, 17:39
At 1:42-ish, he hits the piano but there is no sound... fake, but impressive never the less.
AZ0 (guest)  -  May 10, 2006, 06:36
At 1:42, it DOES play a sound. The sound is low, but pay attention. It's there. Now why it's low is beyond me.
AAS (guest)  -  May 10, 2006, 19:03
Amazing how did he do it?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?
Manir (guest)  -  May 11, 2006, 15:01
I dont think its fake, just a bad sencor probarly. so the piano didnt notice the ball touchted it, its an possibilty u know...
Medic (guest)  -  May 12, 2006, 13:08
Akara... GET A LIFE
Realist (guest)  -  May 19, 2006, 21:39
even if it is fake, that trick can really be done with practise, not fast songs but definitly ballads
7 (guest)  -  May 30, 2006, 06:20
Look, it's absolutely fake. The sometimes a higher pitch is thrown to the left of the previous one (from his POV). Nevertheless, the juglling and timing (which is probably programmed as touch-sensitive) is still impressive.

You people shouldn't let your own inadequacies get in the way of other people's achievements.
GARYsurvivor (guest)  -  July 13, 2006, 23:36
I would have to agree that this is likely fake, but who wants to be annoying like that? Most of the supporting arguments in previous comments are valid, so I will leave it to you guys to decide for yourselves.
 OGrilla  -  July 31, 2006, 04:33
Very good juggling and timing as said before. His stupid comments pissed me off, though. And yes it's a fake, like almost all of the videos here. But that doesn't make them any less fun to watch, at least to me. ^_^
Moah (guest)  -  August 1, 2006, 23:35
Guess it's real. Some programming on the keyboard, yes - to make some variation possible, where he has to play those notes that he couldn't reach otherwise. But there's enough little mistakes in playing those notes and in his timing. And i definitely think that pulling this off is possible. But then again... the keyboard settings, as mentioned before, could indeed be set to trigger the next part of the song, not to really play that particular note. And since this man probably makes his money doing this stuff, the easiest explanation is generally the right one. So reason says me it's fake, but my intuition says it's real.

it real (guest)  -  September 1, 2006, 09:18
some parts he messed up if it was programed it would be perfect.plus if you LOOK AT HIS BALLS! the sound is played when the ball touches. YOU make no fucking sence if it makes sound when the ball touches then its real or he has to thow the ball at the same time as the sound WITCH WOULD BE HARDER!
Serveck (guest)  -  September 10, 2006, 16:40
some of you need to go through puberty before posting here. googles video encoder is not very good, and often the sound is not in sync with the video.
 Deleted0001  -  September 17, 2006, 17:31
Never seen anything like it.
SFDan (guest)  -  September 27, 2006, 22:03
This kind of performance is nothing new. But, it's pretty darned good, none the less. If you want to know more about how old this work is, visit the site of the man who created the most famous act of this kind. You can find that here: http://www.pianojuggler.com/
MindWipe (guest)  -  September 29, 2006, 11:33
Maybe someone else is playing and following the guy who is juggeling and both is following the background music ??

pe had it right he' misses a not therefore proving he pre empted the guide track
englishwh  -  November 11, 2006, 01:08
this is obviously fake. this is clearly a cath of manipulathion
me (guest)  -  December 29, 2006, 23:12
The keyboard is obviously rigged so that it always plays the right note, but he still has to get the timing right and even if the music is completely fake it's still a amazing juggling act.
1234 (guest)  -  February 11, 2007, 23:03
fake
:)) (guest)  -  February 25, 2007, 00:07
At least the topic is great. "Playing piano with balls." ....me, pervert....
JustMe (guest)  -  March 31, 2007, 13:11
The time when the ball hits and makes no sound, he is just transferring the ball to his other hand to get it in the position he needs for the next song. And regardless of how the keys may be set up on the keyboard, this guy is awesome.

i think it was very bad this guy has no talent at all. THAT WAS ALL SHIT!
 schatzy228  -  April 27, 2007, 09:39
VERY ENTERTAINING ANYWAY
MusicAnimationMachine (guest)  -  July 25, 2009, 18:47
Yes, he's using a variant of the Conductor Program. You can read about it at http://www.musanim.com/tapper/ (and there's free software there too).
eitak (guest)  -  August 14, 2010, 00:15
this was amazing almost inpossable
ugottim (guest)  -  August 21, 2010, 00:23
142 he bounces the ball off the top of the piano not the keyboard.
Justus (guest)  -  August 30, 2011, 03:51
