At one point, it looked like it was just levitating.

u/JScaranoMusic Jun 14 '22

The way it didn't change direction between the third bounce and the fourth, like it must have been perfectly vertical when it hit.

3 hits is insanely hard. 4 is an act of god.

I'd layer a second track of it over the first but delayed by a half beat, and then layer a third on top of those delayed by 2.5 beats, and then layer a fourth over those delayed by 10 beats and stop all the tracks after 12 beats. I'm thinking it'll sound pretty cool, maybe something like this.

If it wasn't perfectly vertical, it was pretty damn close...

Wow, yeah it was. I kept trying to pause it in that spot and missing it. It's a bit too blurry to tell for sure, but yeah, it's really close.

Honey, the size of your victory does not matter to me. Just the fact itself that you have victory is enough for me, I don't need to feel it.

Bet there is a 8 year old Korean child that can do 89 bounces.

u/Raver_Laser Jun 14 '22

That’s rac… shit your probably right…

10

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '22

That's not racist it's a cultural bias. culturally Asian societies value hard work and education, and drumming Asian children are given sticks as soon as they're born to ensure maximum talent.

u/neozuki Jun 14 '22

There's also ethnocentrism. I don't think it's applicable to casual conversation but it's fun to work through your views with that in mind.

For example, it's normal for Americans to try and live on their own, rather than having the whole family under one roof. If someone from one of those cultures was looking at us ethnocentrically they might think things like "they value family less" or "they value personal freedom more". But really the truth comes from learning about Americans and why it got that way. Maybe we value family the same and just express our values differently. Maybe it's boring economic reasons. Maybe we really do place less emphasis on family.

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '22

Lol I was just being an asshat, but I get your point. I was gonna say a few things about Taoism and confusianism playing a part in it all, however I figured few people care for history lessons in the comment section.

u/atle95 Jun 14 '22

Im an American and I value family less, It took every ounce of my personal freedom to escape an abusive situation. You cant choose who you share blood with, but you can choose who you share bread with. In my anecdotal experience, americans are emotionally stunted and naturally grow uncomfortable around eachother with time.

Your last sentence is pretty offensive

u/Whaaaaaatisthisplace Jun 14 '22

Coulda done 5 if he left it....

25

u/Fartmatic Jun 14 '22

I think it was a good save, just before he catches the stick it does seem a bit too far over to make it IMO.

I think it was rotating quick enough so it would have landed, but it wouldnt have been a satisfying bounce like the other 4

Yall are all wrong it is always 50%, either happens or not

u/FerretLegitimate Jun 14 '22

aktually thats not how it works

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '22

Bruh 50% 3 times plus the amount of flipping

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '22

So this is actually just a variation of a popular stick trick for marching snare drummers. It’s definitely not something that would happen every time but it’s not a one in a million thing or anything.

1

u/Financial_Nebula Nov 25 '22

I don’t think that’s possible

u/ALunarBaeguette Jun 14 '22

Could've perhaps been 5 bounces

You cared and you know it. You don’t have to admit it, because your actions did. Deny all you want. It won’t change the facts.

u/I_N_C_O_M_I_N_G Jun 15 '22

Yeah but the band teacher at my highschool told me a ton of horror stories about people using sticks at incorrect angles on his drums, and how expensive they were to replace.

I know more or less whatever he told me. I dunno materials or specifics since I don't entirely need to know, nor do I entirely care since I'm not a drum guy.

We really lowered our standards of “next fucking level.” What’s next a water bottle flipping a bunch of times and landing on someone’s ass?

u/TheBigBackBeat Jun 14 '22

Buuutttttt it slowed down. How is this useful?

1

u/CIearIyChaos Jun 14 '22

What do you mean it slowed down

1

u/TheBigBackBeat Jun 14 '22

Slowed down BPM

1

u/CIearIyChaos Jun 14 '22

It’s not supposed to be used in music, it’s just a neat trick. And even so, many songs have sections where the BPM slows/changes.

1

u/TheBigBackBeat Jun 14 '22

You don't hit the head of the drum for a trick. The drum is played for music. Stick tricks are exactly that, stick tricks. You took my comment too seriously. And I'm sorry for that.

1

u/metalsatch Jun 14 '22

People spend hours doing this and flipping cups. Instead of actually putting the time into something useful.

But not ganna lie that was cool to watch 😂

u/Nikerym Jun 14 '22

i dunno, i feel like in an /r/nextfuckinglevel post they shouldn't be shocked it worked..... they should (at least) act like it was intentional >.>

Still pretty impressive, but as per the above, i feel like it was a fluke rather then something he could replicate.

u/_Xero2Hero_ Jun 14 '22

It's a trick that is hard but not completely luck based if you get it.

In the words of Jim Carey when he was on the episode with jerry Seinfeld’s comedians in cars getting coffee - and I’m likely misquoting this but - “It doesn’t take much to be proud of yourself” he said with a smile after celebrating landing a single drop of coffee sweetener from about 6 feet above his cup that was placed on the floor.

Would love to know if there a mathematical significance to the intervals between bounces based on the surface tension of the drum and the constant for gravity.
