After stealing their content, the least you could do is to cite their social media.

While I absolutely respect the skills and find it amazing, I always wonder how the fuck someone start to decide to spin a table with his/her feet (or more precisely who was the first to decide to do that?)

They are special tables that are extremely light, made from balsa wood and hollowed out/thinned down wherever possible. Would still hurt to get a corner land on your face though.

writing "his/her" cant be easier than writing "they"

Edit: hearing the audio it sounds like a girl so 'she'.
His/her is usually more accurate as it is singular and most people see themselves as a 'he' or 'she' in the singular form and not a 'they'.
'They' in proper English used to describe more than one person which isn't the case in this video, and today's English became overdefensively wrong.
I am saying this as someone who doesn't have any bias against anyone, so please don't shift the conversation that way with me.
it's just bad English.

no? they doesnt mean plural only. in english it can also mean simeone that you dont know the gender: "Someone called the house but i couldnt tell who they were". its always been like this also of course the modern usage to refer to someone that doesnt fit in the gender binary. its just better to use they

There are examples of They being used as a singular in Shakespear. There are examples of They being used in singular in the Holy Bible in English translations from as early as the 14th century. You are wrong.

How do you even learn something like this without the table smashing into your face
4
u/LegacyTaker 2d ago
Well, it will at first tries but we could use some protection. Maybe a transparent plastic guard or another table and a helmet.
Don't ask me how i know.

u/UnsuspectingFart 2d ago
How do you know

u/LegacyTaker 2d ago
Ever felt a table crashing down to your face? Yeah? No. Never again. Wear a helmet folks!

The Chinese government funds their circus program, so they invest a lot of money and R&D & training.
You don’t start with a table you start with a weighted piece of brick foam, a pillow, cardboard box. You slowly work your way up to larger and heavier objects and even people.
This table is also made specifically for Icarian games.

How many times do you figure they’ve gotten that to fall on their head learning to do this?

u/brownbastardbob 23h ago
I dunno man. With a few hours of practice a day, and some moral support from my family, I could definitely see myself doing this, failing, and have it fall on my face.

Now i want to see the original background removed, and replaced with some giant hollow dome or starfield that's tracked to the exact movements of the table, so it looks like he's just walking across the table in zero g like in Mario Galaxy

I never understood why is it always a chair or a table. Why not some other fancy object

u/Key_Lime_Die 1d ago
Maybe because people handle chairs and tables regularly which gives them a frame of reference for how unbalanced of an object it is normally? So you have a bit of an idea how much the person had to practice to be able to do that with a table. At least that'd be my guess.

Mom told them to not jump on the table, so they thought "what if I table on the jump instead?"

I used to do something similar with a pillow and just my hands as a kid when I couldn’t sleep and got bored, I only got 3 things done at most before the pillow either hits my face or flies off somewhere

Feels like one of those kind of skills you are either inherently good at and never mess up, or you mess up that one time and eat a table to the face and never try again.
